Female Novel
Chapter 1055
From beginning to end, Neera did not say a word.
She tried her best not to look at him. As she paced toward the car, she brushed past him.
However, just as she was about to get into the car, Jean grabbed the hem of her dress.
If possible, he wanted to hold her hand just like he used to embrace her in his arms as he wished.
Yet, he was worried that she might resist him, so he restrained himself and did not touch her.
Jean's protruding Adam's apple bobbed as he stared intently at Neera's stiffened body. “Take good care of yourselfafter you go back. Remember to eat on time and rest early. Don't push yourself too hard...” he reminded her in alow voice.
Neera's eyes gleamed like ripples in a shallow pool. Tumultuous emotions were raging within her.
Nevertheless, she bit her lip hard, remaining silent like before, and stubbornly refused to look at him.
Jean knew Neera would not respond. Disappointment was apparent in his eyes, but he still let go of her hand.
“You can go now. Safe travels,” he uttered.
With her back toward the man, Neera got into the car without turning back.
Before long, several cars sped off one after another and were soon nowhere to be seen.
Jean stood frozen on the spot, gazing distantly in a trance, unable to retract his gaze for a long time.
Seeing the man acting that way, Isabella felt a sting in her heart and stomped her feet in frustration.
“Why did you let her go just like that? Why didn't you do anything? What on earth were you thinking?”
Only then did Jean slowly withdraw his gaze. A grim look flitted past his eyes.
“The best approach right now is not to get her to stay but to give her space and time to figure things out.”
Isabella looked at him with a face full of suspicion. “Doesn't that mean that you did nothing? Are you thinking ofgiving up? Didn't you say last night that you won't give up?”
Jean glanced at her, his icy face undeniably resolute.
“I didn't say I'm giving up, neither will I. I'm not making her stay because I'll also be heading to Essley to find herand win her back.”
Realization dawned on Isabella. “So that's how it is. That's more like it!”
...
Neera had just left, but Jean was already feeling as though a piece of his heart was missing. He felt an emptyvoid, and reluctance was overflowing.
Unfortunately, the company was still in a huge mess and needed him to handle it. Without any choice, he had topull himself together, freshen up, get changed, and prepare to head to the office.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw Zuniga walk over with a box in her hands.
“What is this?”
He fixed his gaze on the box as he asked, seemingly as though he had a hunch.
Zuniga handed him the box. “I found this while cleaning Ms. Garcia's room. Ms. Lopez says it seems like it'smedicine for you.”
Jean's heart trembled. He hastily grabbed the box and opened it.
Sure enough, the box contained medicines that were all beneficial for his health and recovery.
“Thank you very much.”
A small flame ignited within him as he spoke.
Zuniga still seemed somewhat downhearted.
“Mr. Beauvort, Ms. Garcia still cares about you. She chose to leave because you've hurt her this time. I hope youunderstand and don't give up. You have to win her back and cherish her...”
A warm feeling surged within Jean, and he gave a solemn nod. “I will.”
After putting the medicine aside, he headed to the company with Ian to deal with some tricky matters.
Two hours later, a trending topic suddenly appeared on the internet.
The official account of Star Entertainment Media had posted something on Twitter.
The gist of the post was: The incident between Mr. Beauvort and Ms. Garcia back then was purely an accident.Mr. Beauvort had been in poor health several years ago, and not only did he have to rest in bed for long-termperiods, but he also frequently fell ill. There was no way he had the energy to have fun with women, and therewas definitely no such thing as him being unable to control his desire or constantly changing female partners. Itwas because of his illness and mental confusion back then that led to him making that grave mistake. However,fate, with its countless twists and turns, still brought the two of them together. Unbeknownst to both, theydeveloped genuine feelings for each other. Over the years, Ms. Garcia has been Mr. Beauvort's only woman, andshe'll also be his only one ever. And after his health gradually improved, he has only dated Ms. Garcia. He hasnever let anyone down, and that will continue to be the case in the future.
That Twitter post garnered widespread attention within a short time.
And those opinions that were unfavorable to Jean previously had now swayed.
“Given Mr. Beauvort's poor health, I also think he wouldn't act recklessly. If that's the case, he's not extremelywicked either.”
“Regardless, it's not cool to curse others for their illness. As far as I can tell, apart from this controversial issue,there hasn't been any other negative news about Mr. Beauvort, right?”
“Can't the internet police arrest those who spread baseless rumors? Cloud Group's downfall was clearly due topoor management and the chairman's gambling debts, which led to bankruptcy and his subsequent suicide. Whatdoes this have to do with Beauvort Group? This is clearly all smack-talk.”
“If that's the case, why do I feel like... there's actually some chemistry between those two?”
“Oh my... his only one ever. That's so sweet!”
In the comments that followed, more than half were expressing their fondness for Jean and Neera as a couple.
“I've been shipping the two of them for a while now. I can't believe it's actually real, and all the more so, I neverexpected things to be so dramatic. They're meant to be, aren't they?”
“Back then, Ms. Garcia was tricked while Mr. Beauvort was not in the right mind because of his illness. It was anunintended mistake and truly an accident. But unexpectedly, the two of them, while being unaware, fell in lovewith each other. Well, fate really loves to play tricks on people...”
In no time, the comments on the internet were focused on the two's relationship.
“Mr. Beauvort is so romantic! What a perfect man he is!”
“Ms. Garcia deserves that. If everything is true, I wish them both a blissful marriage!” novelbin
“Gah... Ms. Garcia has already suffered once. I hope it's real this time. Can we please not torment my goddessanymore?”
“Since fate has planned things this way, I hope Mr. Beauvort will treat our goddess well. I'm pleading...”
