an took a seat beside Neera. “Are you feeling unhappy?” 

Neera pursed her lips, sitting with her legs curled up and her arms wrapped around her knees. “It’s not that I’m unhappy. I’m just a bit annoyed. I didn’t expect our marriage registration to cause such a stir, becoming the talk of the town and sparking all sorts of discussions.” 

Jean didn’t mind. “People will say what they want to say. We can’t control that.” 

“I know, but they know nothing at all, just spouting nonsense, and now they’ve even…” She paused for a moment, casting a glance at Jean. 

“They have even what?” Jean asked insistently. 

In an unhappy tone, Neera answered, “They even dragged Mr. Cox into this, spouting all sorts of nonsense.” 

Jean had anticipated this situation early on, so he was not surprised. “Initially, when you came to Phison, Avery used your two families’ marriage alliance to build momentum for you. It was inevitable that others would tie you two together.” 

Neera couldn’t help but feel a bit curious when she saw his indifferent demeanor. “Aren’t you angry?” 

Jean raised his eyebrows, his hands resting lazily behind him, propped up on the bed in a relaxed and comfortable pose. “Why should I be angry? Now that you are mine, there’s nothing for me to be unhappy about.” 

Neera muttered under her breath, “It’s not like when you were jealous for no reason before.” 

Jean laughed. “They’re just rumors and gossip. They didn’t say anything specific about you and Avery. Why would ! be jealous for no reason?” 

As he spoke, he ruffled his hair. “All right. There’s no need to worry about what those insignificant people say.” 

Neera rubbed her legs, sighing deeply in frustration. “It’s not that I’m bothered by what they’ve said. I’m just worried that this matter might affect the relationship between the Cox and Gordon families. If that’s the case, then I would be at fault.” 

Jean understood her concerns, but he didn’t think it would escalate to this extent. “Your stance has always been clear, and I believe Avery understands it, too. If he harbors resentment toward the entire Gordon family simply because of an unsuccessful marriage proposal, because of his unrequited desires, then I don’t think he deserves to be called a gentleman. But based on my understanding of him, whether in terms of personal character or conduct, he isn’t someone so petty. Of course, if he turns out to be, then it means I’ve misjudged him.” 

The fact that he could say such a thing left Neera rather taken aback. “I thought you didn’t like him very much.” 

Jean didn’t deny it. “Yes, I don’t like him, but that doesn’t prevent me from making an objective assessment.” 

Neera couldn’t help but chuckle. “I never thought I’d live to hear you call him a gentleman.” 

Jean raised an eyebrow, remaining silent. 

Although he was once infuriated by Avery’s attempt to take advantage of his absence, it was undeniable that during his absence, Avery indeed provided a lot of help to Neera. He respected Neera’s wishes, didn’t insist on anything, and simply helped her selflessly. 

Thanks to Avery’s assistance, Neera indeed avoided many troubles. 

Even though Avery Irritated him, he was not an ungrateful person. 

“All right. Stop worrying about these things. If you’re really concerned, why not give your aunt and unclé a call to ask about the Cox family’s situation?” Jean asked. 

Under normal circumstances, he would rather Neera never concern herself with the affairs of the Cox family ever again. 

However, he didn’t want Neera to continually carry guilt and remorse in her heart.  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After hearing this, Neera felt it was necessary and decided to give Chad a call. 

At that time, Chad had just returned from the Cox residence. 

Upon receiving her call, he knew exactly what she wanted to ask and got straight to the point. “Rest assured, I’ve already spoken with Avery. Your engagement is hereby canceled. The Cox and Gordon families won’t fall out over this failed marriage arrangement. Everything will remain as it was before. As for Avery, there’s no need for you to deliberately reach out and say anything. In this matter, you haven’t done anything wrong, and your attitude has been very good. You simply married the person you wanted to marry, and that’s all there is to it.” 

Before Neera could even speak, hearing this string of words comforted her quite a bit. 

She gave a gentle smile. “Thank you, Uncle Chad.” 

“Hey, there’s no need to thank me. I was just worried that Avery might have something bothering him, so I went to check on him.” 

“How is he doing? Is he recovering well?” Neera asked. 

“Not bad. His complexion looks much better than before.” 

“What’s the situation with the Cox family now?” 

“At present, the disputes are still ongoing, but the situation is favorable for the Cox family. There’s no need to worry for now. If things go smoothly, the turmoil should subside before long.” 

Neera was relieved. “That’s good then…” 

However, Chad misjudged the situation. The Cox family, who originally had the upper hand, gradually encountered unexpected changes. 

The days of constant disputes had turned the seemingly peaceful District Fourteen into a hotbed of unrest as the four families continued their relentless confrontation. 

One day, a club under the Cox family’s name suddenly caught fire. Although no one was injured, it caused serious damage. 

Another day, the Cox family’s forces stationed on Adieu Island were suddenly attacked at night. The attackers cut off all communication and power on the island, plunging it into chaos. 

Fortunately, the Cox family’s well-trained staff quickly restored order and successfully resisted the opponent’s attack. 

However, due to the suddenness of the night raid, it was clear that the other party was well-prepared. In the end, they failed to capture them, allowing them to escape. 

The actions of these families’ struggles were so significant that not only Partiteu Guild but even Lordowarth
