Jean listened what they are talking....
"What are you guys hiding from me again. Why didn't you tell me that Johann's people are now in country D" Jean frowned.
Scott and Rick sighed in relief. They are happy and relieved that she didn't listen what they were talking till now.
She just came when Rick told Scott about Johann. It is purely their luck that Jean didn't find out about the real secret they are hiding from her.
Scott sighed. "Love, I just got to know" he said as he stood up and gave his place to Jean to sit. He knew she is tired...
Meanwhile Jean couldn't help but feel lucky. She badly needed to sit down as her legs are aching after standing for this long. She has been literally standing since one hour as she got a tour from Jeff.
He took her to research department to show her everything...after all she will be working there with him...
"Jean, it is not like I want to hide it from you but we didn't wanted you to worry about anything....so I came to talk about Johann with Scott rather than you" Rick explained.
"So, Johann's people are here in country D. It means this will be a risky situation for my grandparents...I can't just pull them into this mess right" Jean asked.
She is actually happy that Scott and Rick are working together.
She never thought that these both would get along this well. After Hope came into his life Rick surely changed.
He no longer had any feelings for Jean. He just see her as a good friend. But his concern for her is still unfazed...
"Love, that is what I and Rick are talking about. You just met your grandparents and it's not been even a week you came to visit them. I simply didn't have heart to ask you to come back to country A" Scott said caressing her cheek.
He actually wanted to see how Jean will react after hearing that her grandparents are in risky position because of her...
If she stays strong and unfazed he decided to tell her the real secret he is hiding from her. But if she become tense and restless he is sure he can't tell her anything anytime soon.
Her health and the baby are her first priority now
So, he don't want her to get tensed...
"Jean, I think you should go back to country A. You will be safer there and if Johann is here to make his move on you again, it might affect your grandparents..." Rick said and Jean sighed.
Yes, he is right...
She can't risk her grandparents life just because she is selfish to spend some time with them..
"Love, if you want to stay here it is fine. I will just increase the security around the family and you. We can handle this situation....please don't fret" Scott comforted her.
He can already sense her restlessness...
She is tensed....
She is sad.....
This is enough for him to take the decision not to tell her wife about how Sophia Valdez is connected to council...
"No honey. We cant risk my grandparents life.. ...they are already old and probably they can't take these things anymore. We will go back to country A itself" Jean sadly said.
"Even Jeff will get affected by this. Grandfather don't like all these things.....and I can't just ruin his peace" Jean pursed her lips.
Country A is the safest place for her now. As Scott's grandfather is actually the president of the country no one will dare to attack his family.
Moreover, Elder Braxton is competing in the elections of country B and he badly needs support from Scott's grandfather.
As Johann respects Elder Braxton, he will not dare to do something that might disrupt or anger Elder Braxton.
So, Johann will not tail Jean to the country A. To be precise he can't even send his people to follow her....
"Jean, it is not like this is the last time you will see your grandparents. After Council make sure country D is safe from Johann's people you can come back" Rick comforted her with words.
"I know Rick. I will miss Jeff, Jas and grandparents...I just met my family" Jean sadly said.
Her sad eyes and gloominess made both Rick and Scott to clench theit fists....
Why can't she enjoy her life like everyone does...
They were happy that Jean have found about her grandparents. They are grateful that everything went well and her maternal family accepted her. But it didn't last long for her....she always has to face this type of circ.u.mstances in one or other way.
And they are sure that she will keep her grandparents away from her if she find out the real truth. All she wanted to let them live in peace.
If Braxtons find out that Jean is Sophia Valdez's daughter they will figure it out that Sophia didn't die twenty six years back.
This will eventually lead them to find that Sophia Valdez is none other than the council founder Diana. And it will surely effect Valdez family....
After all Valdez's gave their word that they will not interfere in Braxton's business but Sophis literally showed them hell and now their grandaughter is trying to pull their darkest secrets out...
Just because of her she can't just endanger her grandparents life....so she will surely keep distance from themselves..
"Love, you can meet your grandparents in country A. We can ask them to visit you often..." Scott hugged her sideways..
"Okay" Jean nodded her head.
If she is not pregnant she would have surely led this mission personally...
She is determined to see Johann's end...
But for now she will go back to country A.
....
Meanwhile Johann and his wife are chatting happily. But his mind is busy in thinking how to send Jean away from the country D.
