Chapter 706
Two hours later, the three of us finally stopped talking.
Neera said, "Thank you so much for your help today. It's late. You should go and rest."
Osbert waved his hand casually and said, "Neera, you’re welcome. We're here to help."
Luigi said, "It's the least we can do. You should go check on Mr. Beauvort."
They urged Neera to go since they knew she was worried about Jean.
Neera did not hesitate and packed her things before leaving.
As for Luigi and Osbert, they knew they could not slack off in the current situation, so they found a spot in theoffice to rest.
…
Neera entered the room and saw Jean sitting at the edge of the bed with a pale face.
Neera asked, "Why are you still awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Jean seemed to look better upon hearing Neera’s voice. I initially wanted to keep everything on my own, butwhen Neera talked, I could not hold on anymore…
Jean took a long sigh and said, "I have some pain in my chest."
Neera quickly unbuttoned his collar and pressed on his chest. Then, she asked, "Do you feel pain here?"
Jean grunted and said, "Yes."
After some consideration, Neera’s expression turned serious.
Neera said, "It's likely a residual effect. Your body can no longer handle painkillers or similar medications, whichwould be too burdensome. You'll have to endure it.
Jean gently patted Neera’s hand.
Jean said, "It's okay; I can endure it."
Jean said it casually, but the pain was obvious on his face.
Neera could not bear to see him suffer and sat by his bedside. Then she said, "I'll give you a gentle massage."
With that, Neera gently massaged Jean’s chest.
Neera asked, "Is there anywhere else that's uncomfortable?
Jean shook his head and said, "No, just... the pain wasn’t consistent."
Neera felt worried but remained calm. She said, "In the next couple of days, you'll experience continuous chestpain. I'll give you a proper massage to relieve your pain as much as possible."
"Alright," Jean leaned back and said.
After a while, Jean seemed to be better.
Neera stopped and saw that his forehead was covered in sweat. She gently wiped it away.
Ian entered at this moment.
"Mrs. Beauvort, Richard had brought some food over. Please have something. You haven’t had dinner yet, right?There's a light meal prepared for Mr. Jean, too."
Neera asked Jean, "Would you like to eat some more?"
It had been five or six hours since their last meal in the evening.
Jean was feeling hungry since he had not eaten much in the evening. The pain in my chest is quite draining, too!
Jean nodded and said, "I'll eat if you do."
Neera frowned and said, "Can’t you eat without me?"
Jean stared at Neera and said, "You've taken care of me all day. You should get something to eat!"
However, Neera had lost her appetite due to all the stressful events. Additionally, I had no desire to eat anymorewhen I saw Jean’s condition. But I have to eat something to not let Jean be worried.
"Okay, eat this, and I'll eat," Neera said while feeding him.
Jean replied, "It’s fine; I feel better now. I could do it by myself."
Neera did not comply and said, "Open your mouth."
Neera seemed to be serious.
Jean had no other choice and complied.
Afterward, Neera also had her meal. Then, she helped Jean lie down to rest and was about to leave.
"You're not sleeping yet?" Jean held her hand and asked.
Neera responded, "I'm going to check Gerald's medical records."
Jean frowned and said, "It's late. You should rest; those things can wait."
"I'd rather not see anything happen to your health. If both of us fall sick, the triplets will be really worried. So,listen to my words and sleep, alright?" Jean said.
"Alright, I'll take a short nap," Neera said. Then, she grabbed a blanket and lay down on the nearby couch.
Jean seemed to be worried. He said, "Don’t you have a room to sleep? Go sleep there; it's more comfortable."
Neera declined without hesitation.
"It’s fine. I can't sleep well enough to leave you alone in this situation."
With that, Neera urged Jean to sleep. Then, she closed her eyes without saying more. I was utterly exhausted from
this day, both physically and mentally. In no time, she fell asleep.
Jean stared at Neera for a while. He seemed to be upset. I felt heartbroken to see how much Neera had sufferedfor me. But I can’t really do much now. Neera is truly a nice person, and I will never let go of her…
After a while, Jean also fell asleep.
Two hours later, Neera woke up and checked on Jean first. Seeing him sleeping peacefully, she felt relieved.Then, Neera headed back to work. Luigi and Osbert were also there. novelbin
Neera was surprised and said, "Thanks for the hard work." She seemed to be a bit upset.
Osbert calmly replied, "It’s fine. We didn't have anything else to do. Let's continue our work!"
