Chapter 586 Donât You Care About Your Health?
After Kyra had finished recording the variety show, she heard the news and lost her temper in the dressing
room.
The assistant, visibly shaken, timidly asked âMs. Marks, whatâs bothering youâ¦â
In response, the room echoed with the sound of bottles and jars crashing to the floor.
âGet out!â
Kyra propped herself up against the dressing table, her expression dark and almost unbelievable.
The assistant, not daring to provoke further, swiftly exited.
The atmosphere in the dressing room turned incredibly depressing.
Kyraâs teeth clenched so tightly they seemed on the verge of shattering, consumed by jealousy.
She never expected that Jean could accomplish something so astonishing!
All for the sake of Neera, ignoring the relationship between the Beauvort and Marks families!
Completely shattering any hope the Marks family had!
She despised Neera to the core and was even more infuriated by Jeanâs heartlessness!
She had humbled herself to this extent, and yet, why did he still refuse to bat an eye at her?
Her phone was ringing continuously, and it was Stetson calling.
Kyra was so exasperated that she gritted her teeth before finally answering the call.
âWhat else is there?â
Stetson knew her temper well and warned her.
âEven if you become upset again, you mustnât cause Neera trouble, let alone Jean. Right now, the top priority is to stabilize the project. We can talk about the rest later!â Stetson advised.
Kyra scoffed, âDad, do you think thereâs a future? Jean is so heartless, what kind of future is there?â
Stetson frowned, âAs long as the Marks family perseveres, you remain the most suitable candidate for the Beauvort familyâs bride. Listen to me and donât act rashly!â
How could Kyra swallow this indignation?
She had always been proud, and her only downfall had been when Jean fell.
Or was it because of Neera, that insufferable woman?
According to her father, he would not plan a marriage for her and the Beauvort family for the time being.
In that caseâ¦
She would have to rely on herself to fight for it!
Neera remained unaware of all this.
The research institute grew busier by the day, with reagents undergoing research and development, and endless data comparisons.
Once her attributes went online, Neera hardly spared a glance at her phone, and she immediately became missing in action.
Around midnight, she took a brief break and found a moment to look at her phone.
There were messages of sympathy from the triplets and a message of concern from Jean.
Standing by the window, the cool night breeze rustled her.
Neera felt a little tired, but her spirit remained remarkably alert.
She read the messages one by one, and her expression softened.
Considering how late it was, she assumed the triplets were probably asleep, so she replied to Jeanâs message,
Unexpectedly, just a few seconds after sending the message, Jean called.
âArenât you supposed to be asleep?â Neera sounded surprised.
Jean didnât reply to her question but instead asked, âI should be asking you the same thing. When do you finish work?â
Neera didnât focus on herself but rather expressed her concern, saying, âWhy wonât you listen to me?
Your body needs more rest, and here you are, staying up so late. Donât you care about your health anymore?â
Hearing the hint of annoyance in her voice, Jean lightly grinned while running his fingers through his hair.
âI was already asleep, but I set a notification for your messages. I woke up from a light sleep when it went off.â
Neera would have preferred to hear a slight huskiness in his voice, and she believed him.
âIâm sorry for waking you upâ¦â
Jean leaned against the headboard, casting a soft, dissatisfied gaze at the warm bedside lamp.
âYouâre apologizing to me?â
Neera blinked and smiled, saying, âI just want you to get a good rest.â
In the quiet of the night, her gentle words filled his ears, and Jean could almost picture her with a soft expression, her heart in turmoil.
âAre you hungry? Are you tired?â
âIâm quite busy right now, and Iâm feeling a bit hungry.â
âDo you want to head home and get some rest, or do you plan to continue working?â
âItâs not finished yet. Thereâs a batch of data that hasnât been analyzed, so Iâll probably be working until dawn.â
Jean furrowed his brow upon hearing this. âEvery day, I tell you to rest properly. How do you manage to work

Neera responded with a smile, âIâm fine. Iâve been used to it for a long time. Isnât this what research is all about? The professor urgently needs this set of reagents, so I have to race against the clock.â
Jean understood her dedication to her work and silently supported her, even though he couldnât help but feel a twinge of concern.
âYouâve worked hard,â Jean said softly. âIâll place an order for you later.â
Neeraâs eyes tw inkled as she replied sweetly, âAlright.â
Later, the meal Jean ordered arrived. It was a late-night feast from a private restaurant, featuring all of Neeraâs favorite dishes. What was special about it was that it wasnât just for Neera, everyone present got to enjoy it.
Osbert had been hungry for a while, and upon seeing the spread of delicious food, he felt truly blessed.
âThis must be ordered by Jean, heâs so thoughtful!â Osbert remarked.
Thora, feeling a twinge of jealousy, pretended to be indifferent and scoffed, âItâs just a small gesture, whatâs the big deal!â
Osbert was irritated by her attitude and gave her an unhappy glance. âYou always find fault, whatâs wrong with being nice?â
âWhatâs wrong with me?â Thora raised her eyes, ready to argue.
Neera decided to intervene, breaking her chopsticks with a cool demeanor. âCanât we just enjoy the meal without arguing?â
Thora, losing her temper, huffed and turned away with a disdainful sound.
Neera didnât pay her any mind and invited everyone to dig in.
After the meal, she returned to work. The following morning, everyone looked tired as they hastily packed up and went home.
Neera remained at the research institute until the data was finally processed. Luigi stayed behind to help.
During this time, Jean called twice, but she didnât pick up.
Jean, who was far away in Imperial Gardens, furrowed his brow.
This woman isnât at home, and sheâs not answering her phone. Sheâs probably still busy with her work at the research institute.
Calculating the time, she hadnât slept for more than twenty-four hours. How much longer could her body endure this?
After waiting impatiently, Jean couldnât sit still any longer. He decided to go to the research center himself to fetch her.
