Chapter 1046 Enduring Her Pain

Neera was so quiet that not even a sob could be heard, like a soulless puppet that had lost its spirit.

Her nose stung, and her mind felt like a jumbled mess. She didn’t know how to unravel the situation or face it.

At that moment, the triplets came over to apologize.

“Sorry, Mommy. It’s our fault for keeping this from you. We were the ones who suggested to Daddy not to tell you yet. It would’ve been better if we had told you sooner. If you need to blame someone, blame us.”

After a stretch, Neera came to her senses and looked at them.

She sniffed, not intending to reprimand them.

“That’s not why I’m

crying over. I don’t blame you.”

The triplets, who had previously been hanging their heads, all perked up, looking somewhat cheerful at her words.

If Mommy doesn’t blame us, does that mean she also doesn’t blame Daddy as much? She says that’s not why she’s crying. Then, what is she upset about?

For a moment, the triplets were at a loss and cautiously asked, “Um… where’s daddy? Are… you mad at him?”

Neera chose to remain silent.

She averted her gaze, not looking at the triplets’ expectant eyes, and answered weakly, “I’m tired, so I’m going upstairs to rest. Be good and play by yourselves for a while.”

Having said that, she ignored everyone, held onto the stair railing, and went upstairs to her room.

The triplets’ brightened mood dipped again.

“Is Mommy disappointed in Daddy? Does she not like Daddy anymore?”

Adriana couldn’t bear to see them upset, so she patiently comforted them.

“Give her some time. She definitely needs some time to process this. Perhaps in a few days, she will be able to accept it.”

The triplets could only nod in agreement, yet they still felt a sense of self-reproach.

“Grandaunt, did Daddy and Mommy end up like this because we took matters into our own hands? Did we do something wrong?”

Harvey and Sammy hung their heads low, utterly dejected.

Penny was even more upset. Unable to suppress her sadness, she wept.

Adriana’s heart ached terribly as she hurriedly wiped away the child’s tears.

“No, that’s not the issue. It has nothing to do with you, understand? This is a matter between adults. They can handle it themselves. You don’t need to worry…”

It took her quite a while to finally soothe the children.

That was what she said, but in truth, she herself was unsure.

After Neera left, Jean still stood frozen in place in his house next door, unable to snap out of his daze for a long time.

Seeing no movement inside, lan felt uneasy and decided to enter to check the situation.

With a sigh, he carefully moved closer to Jean.

“Mr. Beauvort, are you all right?”

Only then did Jean snap back to reality, feeling a hollow emptiness in his heart. All the joy had vanished with Neera’s departure.

He even thought he would never replace happiness again in his life if she never forgave him.

Over the years, he had handled everything with ease.

However, at that point he had no confidence at all.

It was the first time lan had seen the insecure expression on Jean’s face.

As his confidant, all he could do was try to offer comfort.

“Mr. Beauvort, don’t be disheartened just yet. Regardless, you and Mrs. Beauvort have three children together. That’s an unchangeable fact. With children come bonds that tie her to you. Besides, the affection you have for each other is genuine. Mrs. Beauvort just can’t accept the truth temporarily. She needs some time. In fact, this matter has been weighing on your heart for a long time. It’s good that it has been exposed. You can take this opportunity to sincerely apologize and pursue anew or compensate her with everything you can offer, right?”

Seeing no reaction from Jean, he felt resigned. Yet, he continued racking his brains to persuade him.

“Moreover, you’ve kept this matter to yourself, causing your own distress. Although it’s unfortunate that it was revealed in such a manner, I personally believe that it may not necessarily be bad for you and Mrs. Beauvort. It all depends on how you handle it. If things are handled well, you and her can love each other without any secrets, but if you let things be… Surely, you’re not planning to give up, are you?”

Jean finally calmed down from his persuasion.

With a serious gaze, he murmured softly, “Give up? How can I possibly give up?”

A moment later, he regained his composure, realizing that lan was right. The incident might not necessarily be a bad thing.

Even if Neera got angry or ignored him, he would never give up, no matter what.

Seeing the change in Jean’s expression and the return of the usual sparkle in his eyes, lan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Mr. Beauvort, the most pressing matter at hand is how to manage the PR crisis. Right now, the netizens’ opinions are flooding in non-stop. We can’t let it run rampant anymore.”

Jean nodded, his voice deep as he said, “Erase all the negative comments about Neera and the children. As for mine, leave them be.”

Bitterness filled his eyes at his order.

“It’s time for me to experience the hardships she had endured back then. Also, investigate who leaked it.”

lan nodded in agreement and immediately set off to carry out the task without delay.
