The Enigmatic Return novel Chapter 147

Neera felt a bit embarrassed when she heard the term "sister-in-law." She and Jean were only in a contractual marriage, not a real couple. Being addressed as such felt a bit awkward.

With a smile, she said, "Mr. Lopez, my name is Neera Garcia. You can just call me by my name."

Fabio hesitated for a moment, subconsciously looking at Jean to see if there was any objection. Seeing Jean's nonchalant expression, he changed his address.

"Alright, Ms. Garcia, please come this way."

Neera nodded and followed Fabio upstairs. On the second floor, Fabio called for an assistant, a sweet-looking girl in a white dress with a great figure.

"Nettie, this is Ms. Garcia. Take her measurements and find a few ready-to-wear outfits for the family banquet."

Nettie nodded and greeted Neera with a gentle smile, leading her into the dressing room.

Since they entered the private residence, the triplets had been quiet and well-behaved, sticking close to Jean in a row.

Fabio had noticed them but didn't have time to ask until now.

"Jean, these three kids are quite good-looking. Whose family are they from and why are they with you?"

Jean glanced at the triplets, and before he could respond, Sammy spoke up.

"Hello, Uncle. We are from Uncle Jean's family!"

As he spoke, Sammy affectionately tugged at Jean's sleeve.

Jean looked at Sammy's small and fair hand and raised an eyebrow, choosing not to refute his claim.

Seeing this, Fabio was taken aback and couldn't react immediately.

Harvey quickly explained, "Uncle, I'm Harvey, and these are my siblings. We are all Mommy's children."

"Mommy?"

Fabio turned to look at Neera, finding it hard to believe. "Your Mommy, isn't she... Ms. Garcia?"

Harvey nodded, "Yes."

Fabio's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Jean.

"Jean, what's going on here?"

In Fabio's eyes, Jean was an outstanding man, and there were plenty of women who were more suitable for him than Neera.

He couldn't believe that Jean would marry a woman who already had three children. This was unimaginable!

Jean understood what Fabio was thinking but didn't explain immediately, only saying, "It's a long story. I'll explain when we have the time."

He then looked at the triplets and said, "Do you want to try some pastries? Uncle Fabio's pastries are the best. Give them a taste?"

The butler had just brought out some desserts that looked very appetizing.

The triplets immediately nodded, thanked Fabio, and gratefully began eating.

Seeing this, Fabio's emotions were in turmoil, filled with question marks.

He couldn't help but carefully observe Jean and the triplets and was surprised to notice that Jean seemed particularly fond of them.

This only confused him further.

Jean had never been so patient with anyone else before!

At that moment, Nettie brought Neera out.

Neera had picked a dress that perfectly showcased her stunning figure. Her long, shiny black hair was gently pulled up, and her delicately made-up face had a touch of mesmerizing charm.

When Jean saw her, his gaze couldn't look away, filled with a hidden sense of amazement.

As for Fabio, he was taken aback.

This dress would be difficult for an ordinary person to pull off, but it fit Neera flawlessly, giving off an aura of perfection!
