SWNOVELS Chapter 1377
Chapter 1377
After learning about the situation of her grandparents in Essley, Neera felt relieved and stood up to take her leave.
Edward stopped her. “Leaving so soon? How about we have dinner together tonight? You’re finally back.”
Neera grinned. “Not tonight as I need to go back to the hospital. When Dad is discharged, I’ll treat you.”
“Alright then.” Edward waved his hand dismissively. “Truly, a daughter getting married is like water poured out. Your mind is all on
that boy, Jean.”
“That’s not it.” Neera walked away awkwardly.
Back at the hospital, only Wrenn and Frederic were in the ward.
Neera greeted them. She looked around and asked, “Where are Jean and the children?”
Wrenn smiled gently. “There’s some work at the company, so Jean went over in the afternoon. At that time, Frederic was
sleeping, and the kids went with him to avoid disturbing Frederic.”
“Okay.” Neera nodded, taking the initiative to ask, “What would you like to eat? I’ll go buy something as it’s too late to go back
and cook now.”
“No need. Sit down. I’ve already sent someone to prepare. It should be here soon,” Wrenn replied.
Neera nodded and asked how Frederic was feeling.
His recovery was impressive as his complexion had visibly improved, and his voice regained its usual vigor.
Neera took another look at his medical report for the day, confirming that all his health indicators were stable. This put her mind
at ease.
At this point, Wrenn patted the couch. “Neera, come and sit. Jean’s father and I want to discuss something with you.”
Neera was puzzled. “What is it?”
Wrenn and Frederic exchanged a look and smiled.
Frederic spoke earnestly. “It’s about your and Jean’s wedding. You see, you’ve already registered your marriage. Even though
both of you aren’t too concerned about these things, marriage is a significant event in life. It might only happen once. The
wedding is crucial, and we think it should be grand. However, we don’t know what you think. We want to discuss it with you today
since we have some time.”
Neera’s eyebrows twitched slightly. She remained silent for a moment before saying, “Dad, you haven’t fully recovered yet. Let’s
postpone this discussion until you’re in better shape. There’s no hurry.”
She wasn’t in a rush, but Wrenn and Frederic were eager and anxious.
Their son’s wedding was naturally a top priority for them, especially considering the improved relationship between Neera and
the elderly couple.
They wanted to take advantage of the situation and plan carefully.
Frederic sat up, energetic and lively. “Ah, I’m already in good shape. I only stayed here a bit longer to reassure you. Don’t worry
about me. Now, your wedding is the most important thing.”

Neera and the elderly couple.
They wanted to take advantage of the situation and plan carefully.
Frederic sat up, energetic and lively. “Ah, I’m already in good shape. I only stayed here a bit longer to reassure you. Don’t worry
about me. Now, your wedding is the most important thing.”
Wrenn chimed in cheerfully, “Yes, if you have any ideas, let us know. You and Jean are usually busy and have no time. I can help
with the preparations...”
Before she could finish, Jean walked in, interrupting her. “Mom, we already have ideas for our wedding. No need to bother.
Wrenn looked confused. “Ideas? Why didn’t you tell us?”
Jean shot a gentle look at Neera and answered, “We don’t plan to have the wedding here, and I will personally organize it.”
Upon hearing this, Wrenn felt regretful.
“Oh, I see. I had so many ideas. I wanted to discuss them with you...” she murmured in disappointment but still respected their
opinions.
“Okay then, since both of you have made up your minds, let’s proceed according to your wishes. After all, you two are the stars
of the wedding.”
Curious, Frederic asked, “If you’re not planning to hold your wedding locally, where do you plan to have it? Have you decided?”
Jean nodded and replied honestly, “Yes, we’ve decided. During our time abroad, I found a small island and bought it. I’ve also
made arrangements. We’ll go back later to finalize the preparations.”
Frederic’s expression suddenly changed, and his eyes took on a meaningful look.
“You rascal! You’ve made up your mind without even telling us. Your mother and I have been racking our brains, worrying that
you wouldn’t be satisfied.”
Listening to his complaints, Wrenn shot him a disgruntled look. “That’s enough. Stop your pointless chatter. How come you talk
more than me now? As long as the children are happy, that’s all that matters. Nothing is more important than their happiness.”
Frederic blinked and raised his hands. “Look at me now. In this family, I have no status anymore.”
Jean’s lips curled up, a faint smile appearing in his eyes.
He glanced at Neera, and as the sunset spilled into the room, the warm orange light outlined her beautiful face even more
delicately, making hearts flutter.
Sensing his gaze, Neera met his eyes and smiled in return.
