The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1395

Neera remained silent, but she knew deep down that what Jean said was true.

During this period, she had been well aware of Wrenn’s attitude towards her.

As time went on and they interacted more, her resentment towards Wrenn gradually faded away.

The past seemed incredibly distant now.

Always look ahead in life and keep moving forward day by day. Things are pretty good as they are now, and in the future… we’ll only get better, right?

Just as she was lost in thought, her phone rang again.

Jean had wanted to continue chatting with her, but when he heard her phone ring, he couldn’t help but laugh helplessly.

“My wife is indeed busier than me now. It seems I’ll have to be the man behind Ms. Neera Garcia from now on.”

Neera chuckled, playing along with his words. “Well then, I wouldn’t mind taking care of you. It would save you from always fooling around.”

Jean raised an eyebrow. “When have I ever fooled around?”

Neera pinched his face, narrowing her eyes and pretending to be unhappy. “You should reflect on yourself. Every time we go out, don’t you notice a lot of people staring at you? Their gazes are practically glued to you. Even if you don’t mean to, you’re definitely attracting attention!”

After speaking, she feigned dissatisfaction and then turned to go to the balcony to answer her phone.

Jean stood still, thoughtfully touching his own face. Watching the graceful figure of the petite woman walking away, he smiled.

Being jealous is good. It just shows that she cares about me.

He absolutely adored her little fits of jealousy and the way she pouted.

On the balcony, Neera saw the caller ID. It was her aunt’s name. She picked up the phone with a smile..

“Aunt Nadine, what’s the matter? Did you miss me?” she asked playfully. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

However, instead of Nadine’s voice, she heard soft sobbing.

Neera was taken aback for a moment, and after a brief pause, she recognized the sound of her grandmother crying.

In an instant, her heart clenched. She thought that her grandmother was missing her mother again.

She opened her mouth, about to say something, when suddenly her grandmother spoke up.

“Neera, Neera…”

This was the first time she had called Neera by her name since they reunited.

Once upon a time, she always referred to her as “baby girl.”

>For a moment, Neera understood something.

Her throat suddenly felt incredibly dry. She moistened her lips, then cautiously whispered, “Granny, do… do you know who I am?”

Mariah continued sobbing, her sobs punctuated by intervals of silence, each pause filled with fragments of heartache.

“You’re Neera… You’re my granddaughter and Stacy’s daughter.”

Neera’s eyes suddenly became moist. A pang of sorrow struck her heart, and tears quickly wet her eyelashes, rolling down from her eyes.

“Granny.” She leaned against the railing, covering her mouth, trying to suppress her tears. Despite her efforts, her choking voice betrayed her emotions.

“Granny, it’s me, Neera, your granddaughter. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to deceive you before. I’m just…”

I’m just afraid you won’t be able to handle the truth.

“I know. I understand.” The old lady continued to shed tears and was devastated.

“Stacy is no longer with us. My baby girl will never return. I’ve been waiting for her all these years, and I still can’t bring her back. It’s my fault. If I had been willing to swallow my pride back then, I could have persuaded your granddad to go find Stacy sooner. Perhaps…”

Neera did not want her to take all the responsibility upon herself and quickly tried to comfort her.

“Granny, please don’t say that. It’s not your fault. Mom was treated unfairly and let down by others. But rest assured, even though she passed away early, those who hurt her have not escaped their karma.

They have all paid the price. If Mom’s spirit is watching over us from heaven, she can now rest in peace.”

The old lady became so angry at that that she gritted her teeth and voiced her complaints in a tone tinged with

sorrow.

“Those d*mn Garcias, how dare they harm my baby girl! They actually… actually treated my child so cruelly! Even if I die in this life, even if I descend to the underworld, I will still curse them fiercely. I will never let them off!”

As her words flowed on, her pace quickened, revealing her escalating frustration.

Neera was very worried and quickly comforted her, “Granny, please don’t be angry. It’s all in the past now. I’ve avenged Mom, and those people have received their punishment. If Mom were still alive, she definitely wouldn’t want you to worry about these things, let alone get angry over such scum. Even though Mom is gone, I’m still here with you. We’ve finally reunited, and once you’re fully recovered, our family will be together again.”

The old lady’s anger began to dissipate, and she murmured, “Neera, I miss you so much. I didn’t get a chance to really see you before and even mistook you for Stacy. You must have been very upset, right? You’re right. My baby girl is no longer here, but she left you behind for us. Neera, I don’t know how you’ve been all these years. Can you tell me about it? I really want to know.”

Neera leaned against the railing, softly sharing with her what she had experienced.

She carefully chose which parts to share, glossing over the difficult moments and only recounting the interesting indidents.

The old lady listened with great interest, gradually breaking into a smile.

After a while, Mariah’s voice gradually weakened. She was clearly worn out from the emotional ups and downs.

Nadine had been standing by her side all along. Seeing her condition, she had her lie down and took the phone outside.

“Your granny couldn’t bear it any longer. She has gone to rest first,” she said.

Neera hummed in understanding, then asked her, “Aunt Nadine, when did Grandma recover?”

Nadine hesitated for a moment before responding, “I can’t really say for sure. I’ve been giving her the medicine you prescribed. I mentioned it when I called you last time. She was already behaving unusually then…”

“It appears that the medication is working. I simply didn’t anticipate it to work so quickly.”

Neera had expected a period of two or three months for her grandmother to adjust, deeming it a reasonable timeframe: However, to her surprise, her grandmother’s mood had already improved during Neera’s absence.
