The Enigmatic Return Chapter 20
Chapter 20
Neera was dumbfounded.
She did not expect that she would be so unlucky to destroy a five–million–dollar vase!
Now that her funds were all tied up in the stock market, where was she going to find
five million dollars to pay that man?
The triplets did not expect to get into so much trouble either.
However, they remained amazingly calm. In fact, they were plotting something.
A few seconds later, Sammy put on a pitiful expression and said, “Mr. Handsome, we’ve
just returned from abroad, and we’re struggling with keeping our finances in check. We
might not be able to return you the money any time soon. Can we sign an IOU, or would
you let us pay in installments?”
“That’s right! We only have money left for food!” Penny said.
“If that doesn’t work… Can we pay you back in another way?” Harvey said sincerely.
Neera was surprised. Why did you confess so quickly? I can’t let them know I don’t have
money!
In any case, she felt bad for letting her children plead on her behalf. She was about to
tell Jean that she would pay him back as soon as she could when lan said, “What’s
another way? Don’t tell me you’re planning to get your mother to marry Sire?”
Jean raised his eyebrows and shot a glance at Neera.
Neera nearly burst out laughing.
“Of course not!” The triplets denied it.
Even though they wanted to suggest that, they knew their mother would not agree.
“My mommy is a very skilled doctor. She can pay you back by treating your illness!
You’ve seen how amazing her skills are, right?”
“That’s right! In fact, she’s already giving you a discount by charging five million dollars.”
The triplets tried to convince Jean to let Neera treat him. That way, Jean’s illness could
be treated, and he would become closer to Neera.
Before Jean said anything, Neera was already expressing her reluctance.
She was on a streak of bad luck ever since she returned to Kingsview, and every
incident involved that man!
Moreover, instead of treating that man for only five million dollars, she would rather
accept the Beauvort family’s request and earn fifty million dollars!
After reaching that conclusion, she wanted to refuse.
Harvey knew what his mother was thinking. He took her hand, dragged her to a corner,
and whispered in her ear, “Mommy, you’d have to admit it’s our fault. It won’t be
beneficial for us if we can’t see our neighbor eye to eye. Won’t you… accept the request?
If you can do Mr. Handsome a favor, I’m sure he’ll be glad to return the favor by
babysitting us whenever you’re busy.”
Neera began to hesitate.
Harvey noticed that his mother was wavering. He grabbed her hand and continued,
“Mommy, do you know what I like about you the most? You look like an angel whenever
you treat your patients!”
Neera thought it was very amusing. “Why are you trying so hard to convince me to treat
that guy? You were never so generous with flattery!”
Harvey blinked innocently and said, “I’m only telling you the truth! You’re my angel,
Mommy!”
He leaned forward and pecked her cheek.
Neera’s heart melted, and she lost all resistance. “Fine, fine! I’ll agree to it!”
Harvey grinned happily and dragged his mother back to where they were. “So what do
you think, Mr. Handsome? Can she pay you back by treating you?”
