The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1066

Neera had never imagined that to be the case. She turned to Chad with genuine gratitude in her eyes and said, “Uncle Chad, your love for my Aunt Adriana is truly deep. I appreciate how much you cherish her. Knowing that you're by her side gives me peace of mind.”

Chad responded with a faint smile, his eyes showing a touch of tenderness.

“Gordon Group originally started in the luxury goods and diamond industry. Over time, it expanded into various sectors. After I took over, I ventured into the tourism industry. Your aunt has always loved traveling, so now, F.A. has vacation properties all around the world. I hope to take her on a world tour after we get married.”

His smile radiated happiness, and he continued, “For the proposal, I plan to arrange it on a vacation island in Essley.”

“A vacation island?”

“Yes, it's a beautiful place, and I've prepared it meticulously. It's not far from here, considering your aunt's health. I chose it to be convenient. The island is named 'ANXIN Island',” Chad explained.

Neera made the connection, “Isn't that the name of ANXIN Group?”

Chad confirmed, “That's right.”

Neera couldn't help but express her admiration, “The bond between you and Aunt Adriana is like a fairytale. It's as if you two were meant to be together.”

Touched by her words, Chad said, “After all these years, reuniting with your aunt is a blessing. All I want is to spend the rest of our lives together in peace and happiness.”

“Uncle Chad, thank you,” Neera responded with heartfelt appreciation. “I will definitely help you with this proposal.”

Neera chuckled at Chad's response, “You're quite the romantic, Uncle Chad. In fact, you don't need my help at all. The gift you've prepared for her is already the most romantic gift in the world.”

Chad's eyes sparkled with affection as he replied, “She deserves nothing but the best.”

Hearing this, Neera teased him, “You're making me blush with all this sweetness, Uncle Chad.”

Seeing her uplifted spirits, Chad felt relieved. He said, “Enough of that. You're in charge of the arrangements now. I've hired a team to set up the venue, and you can share your ideas with them whenever you like. They'll handle everything.”

“All right. It's settled then,” Neera agreed, and her mood significantly improved as she immersed herself in the proposal planning.

Adriana couldn't help but be intrigued by the change in Neera's mood. She pulled Chad aside and whispered into his ear, “How did you do that? Just a brief conversation with you, and her spirits lifted.”

He refused to divulge the details when she had asked him about it previously. Observing the situation now, Adriana felt even more perplexed.

Chad didn't reveal his secret, as it would spoil the surprise. He simply replied, “I gave her a heads-up about your upcoming birthday. She's probably planning a surprise for you. After all, you're her dearest family member, so she's putting a lot of effort into it.”

Adriana had forgotten about her own birthday, and she chuckled delightfully. “I can't believe it was that simple. I was wracking my brains over it this morning.”

Chad lovingly pinched her cheek and assured her, “Don't worry, I've got it all under control. You don't need to stress about a thing.”

Neera, engrossed in the proposal preparations, found herself too occupied to dwell on other matters. As time passed, night descended.

However, Neera's sleep was once again disturbed by the recurring nightmare.

This time, it was even more vivid. She drew closer to the injured person in the dream, and as she got nearer, she finally saw their face—it was Jean!

Startled, Neera woke up abruptly, her heart racing and her breathing rapid.

After a while, she managed to calm herself, but sleep eluded her. In the end, she decided to call Isabella for a late-night conversation.
