Chapter 204 You’ve Suffered
Neera spoke with conviction.
Frederic was unexpectedly taken aback by her words. There was a surprise in his eyes
He found a strong sense of pride in her demeanor…
Such traits were extremely rare in the modern age where fickleness was a common sight. It was
something he
hadn’t seen in a while.
To think he would find these qualities in Neera, who was rumored to have a “bad reputation”.
Was a girl like her truly someone so reckless?
He suddenly thought that there might be more to the story behind what had happened in the past
Wrenn’s expression was still somewhat unsightly.
She knew she was in the wrong, but she believed that, as the elder, Neera shouldn’t have been so
confrontational. Neera should have taken the initiative to offer her a way out.
It was clear, however, she had no intentions of doing so.
Wrenn was left speechless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFortunately, Frederic stepped in to defuse the situation and redirected the conversation.
“Alright. We’ll be more careful in the future. This was indeed our mistake. We won’t believe those
rumors so willy-nilly again. We won’t interfere with your lives again since both you and Jean are doing
well.”
With that, he got to his feet and left with the uncomfortable Wrenn.
Jean saw them out the door.
He returned to the living room once they were gone. He pursed his lips and apologized, “I’m sorry for
putting you in that situation.”
Neera pouted. “Forget it. It’s fine. I can’t be bothered with them. Besides, it’s not the first time someone
has come to question me this way. It’s okay.”
With that said, she was no longer in the mood to stay and turned to leave.
Jean could tell she was still upset despite her claims that she was fine.
After all, having baseless slander piled onto her wouldn’t sit well with anyone either.
lan also noticed and couldn’t help but feel worried.
“Ms. Garcia seems upset, Sire. Will she stop treating you in a fit of anger? What are we supposed to do
if that happens?”
Jean’s gaze sharpened with confidence. “She wouldn’t. She’s not the type of person to go back on her
word.”
Seeing his expression, lan realized he had overthought the situation and quickly apologized, “I
misspoke.”
He then furrowed his brows. He couldn’t help but grumble. “Roxanne Garcia has certainly caused a lot

It didn’t take a genius to figure out it was that woman who spread these rumors!
Jean’s eyes darkened:
The reason Neera suffered verbal humiliation from his mother stemmed from these rumors. The
instigator behind it, without a doubt, was Roxanne.
The Garcias were a den of wolves who treated Neera with great cruelty!
Permaneció en silencio, pero Lan, todavía furioso, siguió quejándose.
“Esa mujer es bastante intrigante. Ella manipuló a la Sra. García y le causó sufrimiento hace cinco
años. Cinco años después, te toma por tonto. Sus métodos son deplorables. Afortunadamente, la que
se casó con un miembro de la familia es la Sra. García y no ella. ¡La gente como Roxanne ni siquiera
es digna de ser el limpiabotas de la Sra. García! Además, ella es la que tiene una relación ambigua

Al escuchar esto, Jean frunció el ceño. Le lanzó una mirada de reojo y preguntó: “¿Qué significa eso?”
Por lo general, mostraba poco interés en los asuntos ajenos.
Nunca le había prestado atención a Roxanne.
Ignoraba por completo de qué estaba hablando Lan.
Lan explicó de inmediato: “Le he informado del asunto antes. El ex prometido de la Sra. García y su
hermanastra se unieron para conspirar contra ella. Esto resultó en su reputación arruinada. Más tarde
lo investigué y descubrí que había más en la historia… Roxanne había estado mucho tiempo con
Zachary. ¡Ese incidente podría haber sido su plan conjunto!
“Además, la señora García supuestamente estaba en el hotel ese día porque había asistido al
banquete de cumpleaños de Roxanne el día anterior… ¡Al día siguiente, se despertó con rumores de
que había pasado una noche apasionada con tres hombres en el hotel!”
La voz de Lan bajó a un susurro bajo: “¡A decir verdad, siempre pensé que había algo sospechoso en
este asunto! La Sra. García acababa de regresar del campo unos meses antes en ese momento.
Tenía una personalidad muy tímida e inocente. Ella siempre estuvo cerca de Zachary. ¡Junto con su
compromiso, es muy poco probable que hubiera hecho algo tan vergonzoso!
