Chapter 1112 Overthinking
Neera found it amusing and led them upstairs. She first bathed them before taking a shower herself.

When she came out, she saw at a glance that the three little ones were sitting on the bed with their backs to her, video-calling
Jean on their mobile phone.
The three little ones were so overjoyed earlier that they didn’t react in time. Now, caught red-handed, they were suddenly startled
and quickly hid the phone.
Neera eyed them, somewhat speechless.
This time, she didn’t ignore it. Instead, she feigned indifference and said, “Go ahead and chat if you want to. It’s not like I can
stop you.”
After she finished speaking, she went off to the side to dry her hair.
Seeing that she didn’t object and didn’t seem upset, the little ones looked at each other and became excited.
Now, they could finally chat with their father openly and without any fear!
Sammy patted his little chest and sighed before pulling out the phone. With a beaming smile, he began to chat with his father on
the screen, asking him warmly about his well-being.
“Daddy, have you eaten yet?”
Jean had heard the conversation between Neera and the children, so when they continued the video call with him, his eyebrows
raised slightly as joy welled in him.
“Yeah, I’ve eaten. How about you guys?”
“We’ve already eaten. It’s evening here now. We were out having fun all day today.”
“That’s right! We went diving today! We saw so many beautiful little fish in the sea, and corals too. They were all so stunning!”

“We even toured around the island this afternoon, Daddy. This little island is just so beautiful. It’s such a pity you couldn’t make
it.”
Jean quietly listened to the little ones share their day with him, feeling a touch of regret in his heart.
“I think it’s a pity too. But it’s okay. When I have time in the future, I’ll take you all to even more beautiful places and play with
you.”
“Okay!” Sammy nodded vigorously, then asked, “Daddy, where are you now? Why is the background all white. Are you at the
office?”
Jean didn’t want them to worry, so he calmly said, “Yeah. I just finished with my work, so I’m resting for a while.”
“Oh, I see.” The children accepted his words without suspicion, then chattered on. “Daddy, how have you been these days? Do
you miss us?”
Jean smiled. “Of course! I miss you all the time. In fact, I was already preparing to go abroad to meet up with you all, but I was
unexpectedly held back by some matters and had to remain here temporarily. These days, I even dream of you all. Without you
guys by my side, even food doesn’t taste as good.”
In the past, he would hardly ever say something so cheesy.
Now that there was no one around, he didn’t need to feel embarrassed at all. He could just say what was on his
mind.
The triplets giggled, their hearts filled with mischief. They clearly understood that these words were actually meant for Neera,
and they sneakily glanced at their mother.
Behind them, Neera had chosen to turn her back to them as she absentmindedly dried her hair.
When she heard all the sweet nothings that Jean had just uttered, her heart involuntarily quickened its pace.
This man... He really has no filter and says whatever comes to his mind.
Seeing that she didn’t look back, the little ones chuckled mischievously and expertly aimed the camera in her direction.
Jean got his wish. He stared at her back, almost entranced, and was unable to take his eyes off her.

Even if all he got to do was stare at her back, he still felt very content.
Just then, a knock suddenly sounded at the door.
Neera went to open the door, only to find Avery standing outside, which surprised her á bit.
“Is there something you need at this late hour?”
Avery smiled. “There are fireworks outside tonight. Would you like to go see it?”
In the room, the warm atmosphere was instantly shattered. Jean fell into silence, his eyes darkening as his gaze became intense
and somewhat frightening.
The children swallowed nervously. They clearly sensed their father’s jealousy and displeasure but were unsure of what to say.
Neera also felt a bit awkward. Even though she had her back to the children, she could still sense that the man was watching her
through the screen.
Avery’s sudden appearance had her inexplicably feeling guilty.
However, even without Jean overhearing, she was planning to reject the offer.
Before she even had a chance to speak, though, Adriana and the others had already arrived.
“Neera, are you going or not?”
Mariah was quite excited as she reached out to grab Neera’s hand. “Sweetie, shall we go watch the fireworks together? What do
you say?”
Seeing her grandmother like this, Neera naturally couldn’t bear to refuse. After a moment of hesitation, she could only agree.
“All right, I’ll be there as soon as I change my clothes.”
After closing the door, she turned around to look at the three little ones, wanting to say something but hesitating. She couldn’t
help but steal a glance at their phone.
Harvey told her, “Daddy has ended the video call.”

Neera instinctively responded, “No need.”
Despite her words, her heart was filled with unease.
