Female Novel
Chapter 1474
The popularity of the Gordon family was soaring, causing quite a stir in Phison. Needless to say, the netizensonce couldn't help discussing the matter.
Everyone used to be envious when the head of the Gordon family secured the position of the third elder seat. Butnow, when you compare it, there's not much to be envious about. After all, her current status, no matter how youlook at it, is far superior to her position during her time at Bartitsu Guild. Now, that's truly something to beenvious of.
So many family forces have pledged allegiance to the Gordon family. Given their current reputation and power,they can be considered the top echelon family in Lordsworth Estate, right?
Of course! Moreover, it's said that the Medicina family and the Gordon family have a very good relationship. Thehead of the Medicina family takes good care of the head of the Gordon family. Who doesn't know about theMedicina family? They are the wealthiest family in Lordsworth Estate. The head of the Medicina family is also ahighly favored person by the lord. Looking at it this way, the Gordon family's status is absolutely secure.
Why haven't I heard any news from the Cox family? Upon arriving at Lordsworth Estate, it seems like they arenot as popular as the Gordon family.
Well, that's not entirely true. The Cox family is now under the full protection of Lordsworth Estate. I've heard thatthey're going all out to expand their influence. They've opened numerous businesses in District Ten and haverestructured their family enterprises. Their own operations are thriving, and it's said that other family powers inDistrict Ten have also pledged allegiance to the Cox family. After all, the Cox family's strength in Bartitsu Guildwas extraordinary. No one would dare to underestimate the Cox family now.
But why do I get the feeling that the Gordon and Cox families don't seem to interact much anymore? Is it reallylike the rumors suggested that after the cancellation of the marriage alliance, the heads of the Cox and Gordon
families have become estranged? I see the head of the Gordon family and Mr. Beauvort getting along quite well,but there doesn't seem to be any connection with the Cox family anymore.
Do they really need to publicize their relationship? The Gordon and Cox families have had a relationship formany years. They wouldn't just cut ties over a failed marriage proposal. They're not that petty.
Exactly, I feel the same way. Otherwise, why would the Cox and Gordon families still go to Lordsworth Estate fordevelopment? I wouldn't believe it if you told me they didn't arrange this behind the scenes. We, as onlookers,should stop worrying unnecessarily. If there's gossip to enjoy, we enjoy it. If not, we should stop making baselesscomments.
Ah! It's not nice to poke one's nose into others' business. Both the Cox and Gordon families are doing quite well.Ever since they joined Lordsworth Estate, they've been treated exceptionally well. Such a fortune is not easilyfound elsewhere. Moreover, the Gordon family's popularity is largely due to their family head. They've alwaysbeen under the radar, so their current prominence is particularly noticeable. But the Cox family is different.They've always been strong and don't need any hype. They prefer to work on significant matters quietly.
I'm changing the subject here. Isn't anyone concerned about Mr. Beauvort? He's been away from the office forquite some time now, all because of his wife. He's been with her at all times, completely neglecting the company.That's enough to make anyone jealous.
Exactly! I've noticed it, too. I'm so envious! How can some people attract such high-quality men? Handsome,wealthy, powerful, caring, and protective of the ones they love. He's always by her side! Why don't I have suchluck?
Wake up. We live in a world that judges by appearances. Take a look in the mirror, Sis. With our looks, we'dbetter not get our hopes up.
Pfft! I disagree with that. How can you only judge by appearances and not consider what's inside? There arecountless beautiful faces out there, but it's the heart that matters most. People aren't just looking for an emptyshell.
I get it. I really do... However, I'd rather she was a stunning beauty. Her kind of extraordinary allure is notsomething you come across every day.
So what? The handsome CEO, Mr. Beauvort, has seen his fair share of beautiful women, right? Given hisbackground and status, he's certainly not short of admirers. He's probably immune to them by now. Plus, he's soattractive that he could have any woman he wants with just a snap of his fingers. But he only has eyes for Ms.Neera. He's utterly devoted to her. I don't think it's just about her looks, do you? It must be because Ms. Neera isnot only beautiful but also kind-hearted, with a precious soul that's enough to attract Mr. Beauvort.
Exactly, and it's not just about her looks. The lady has medical skills that can resurrect. Her position in themedical profession is beyond doubt, and few can match her. So, is she not good enough for Mr. Beauvort? If youask me, she's more than enough!
Great minds think alike. Ms. Neera has healed and saved others. She has also done countless good deeds. I've alsofound out that she frequently provides free treatment for children's welfare homes. Some areas are very poor andcan't afford medical treatment, yet she goes there specifically to help unconditionally. She also donates to charityand has never stopped doing so over the years. Who else could perform such acts of kindness? Ms. Neera is trulyan angel, isn't she? It's only natural for Mr. Beauvort to fall in love with her. It shows he has good taste, and it alsoshows he is blessed.
Haha! A beautiful and kind-hearted lady like Ms. Neera deserves a devoted and faithful man to cherish her. I wishher everlasting happiness!
Agreed.
I couldn't agree more! There are indeed wise people out there!
I like this comment!
During the days Neera chose to rest and recuperate, she spent her time either eating or sleeping. When she hadnothing else to do, she would sketch and design if she had an inspiration. If not, she would read a book or surf theweb.
When she saw the comments online, she couldn't help but laugh.
“What on earth is this? Their discussion is getting more and more off track.” She burst out laughing, sprawled onthe bed, her legs bent and swinging leisurely.
Thanks to the ointment, the scratches on her leg had faded significantly after those days of care. Her skinremained as delicate and fair as ever.
Jean's gaze fell upon her, pausing for two seconds, then nonchalantly moved away. He casually walked over andsat down next to her. “What's wrong? What are you looking at?” novelbin
“Look at this.” Neera held up her phone in front of her. “They're all talking about you. They say you're hopelesslyromantic and loyal. They also say you have good taste.”
Jean picked up the phone and glanced at it. His eyebrows raised immediately, a faint smile lurking in his eyes.“Indeed, the netizens are right. I am truly blessed.”
Neera laughed heartily, lying in bed without getting up. “In the past, people always said that being able to get youwas my good fortune. Now, finally, someone has said that being able to marry me is your good fortune. Thisfeeling is quite nice indeed.”
Jean smiled faintly. “Are you this happy?”
Neera nodded emphatically. “Of course.”
As the two were talking, suddenly, Neera's phone started to ring.
Jean didn't see who it was, naturally assuming that it was someone from Lordsworth Estate looking for her again.He sighed softly and said, “It's really not easy to find some alone time with you these days. Being the man behindyou, I'm starting to feel a bit lonely.”
Neera couldn't help but laugh. She took her phone, gave him a playful glare, and teased him, “You've only beendoing this for a short while. There's still a long way to go. You need to get used to it.”
After speaking, her gaze shifted to the phone screen, her expression slightly surprised. Auntie Zuniga is callingme!
Jean glanced over and noticed it, too. He casually asked, “Why is Auntie Zuniga calling you? There must besomething up, right?”
Neera nodded, turned over, and sat up. Without much thought, she answered the call.
