The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1095

At that time, the sun was shining brightly.

The color of Jean's face was terrifyingly dark, his eyes cold as a harsh winter.

Ian swallowed, his body hair standing on end.

With his heart in his throat, he cleared his voice and gently reminded, “Mr. Beauvort, the project manager is still waiting outside. Would you like to see him?”

Jean lifted his eyelids, casting an indifferent glance at him.

Alarms were blaring in Ian's mind as he stumbled over his words, trying to rectify the situation.

“I-I'll tell him to leave right now!”

“Stop.”

Jean called out to him, raising his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose.

After a brief pause, he suppressed his inner irritation and texted his children: Okay.

Adriana's birthday was just two days away, and he was already prepared to leave the country tomorrow.

He forced himself not to be swayed by these thoughts and steadied his mind. Jean asked Ian to call the project manager and immersed himself in work.

That evening, after finishing his work, he went to visit his parents as usual. He also took the opportunity to inform his elders about his trip to Essley the next day.

Even the best-laid plans can't keep up with unexpected changes. No one could have predicted that he would be attacked on his way to the hospital.

That night, after crossing the Jiuphes Bridge, Ian was the first to notice that something was off, frequently checking the rearview mirror.

“Mr. Beauvort, I think we are being followed!”

Jean sat in the back row, leaning against the chair, resting with his eyes closed.

Upon hearing this, he abruptly lifted his gaze, casting a cold glance at the rearview mirror on his right.

Sure enough, there were two cars following at a distance, neither too far nor too close.

He remembered that before he got in, these two cars seemed to be parked not far from the company.

A glint of cold light flashed in his eyes as his gaze slightly narrowed. He commanded in a cold voice, “Speed up, shake them off.”

Ian stepped on the gas, and the car instantly picked up speed.

But it seemed like the two cars behind were ready for this, reacting swiftly and following suit, even closing the gap further.

They positioned themselves on either side, trapping Jean's car in the middle!

At this hour, there were few vehicles on the road. Seizing the opportunity, the other party suddenly swerved the steering wheel, squeezing directly into the middle lane!

With a serious expression, Ian sped up again, aiming to break through the pincer attack of the two cars on either side.

The sound of the car wheels grinding against the ground was particularly grating. Inside the car, Jean's lips were tightly pressed together, his eyes cold and deep.

His mind was racing, instantly connecting the dots with his father's situation.

A few days ago, his father had a car accident on the road. The investigation concluded it was an accident.

But today, he was unexpectedly attacked on the road!

This simply couldn't be an accident. He was afraid someone must have deliberately caused his father's incident!

Bang!

Suddenly, a car from the left side crashed into them. Their vehicle jolted violently, swaying from side to side, almost flipping over!

Ian tightly gripped the steering wheel, barely managing to steady the car.

“Mr. Beauvort, sit tight! Be careful!”

He gritted his teeth, flooring the accelerator, desperate to shake off the two cars.

Although his driving skills were impressive, the other party seemed to have no regard for their life, crashing into their car once again!

It was as if they wanted to create an accident.

Due to their excessive speed, the impact was particularly strong. Caught between the two, Ian was unable to defend himself. Losing control, his car veered toward the guardrail on the side!

Due to the excessive speed, the car actually broke through the guardrail, and the front of the vehicle violently collided with a large tree by the roadside!

With a resounding “bang”, white smoke billowed from the front of the car. Then, flames erupted.

Inside the car, Ian was just about to curse out loud when a wave of dizziness hit him. His vision turned white, with faint traces of red appearing, and then he passed out.

Jean, in the back seat, was also affected by this impact. The ringing in his ears made him dizzy and disoriented, and he soon lost consciousness.

Outside, seeing their plan succeed, the two cars didn't linger. The driver changed direction and sped off.

On the road in the dead of night, passing vehicles came to a halt yet dared not approach.

Jean's car hood had already split open, with smoke and flames growing more intense. The scent of gasoline even lingered in the surroundings.

If one was not careful, this car was likely to explode.

Just as the situation reached a critical juncture, the sound of several abrupt brakes suddenly echoed from not far away.

A group of people disembarked from the vehicle, sprinting toward the scene of the accident.

They were Jean's subordinates.

As soon as Ian sensed that something was amiss, he immediately contacted his subordinates.

That was why these people were able to arrive at the scene so quickly.

At that moment, disregarding their own safety, they swiftly helped Ian and Jean out of the car.

Someone was extinguishing the fire on the car.

The scene was in total chaos.

Fortunately, Jean and Ian were quickly taken to the hospital under Beauvort Group.

This matter was of great importance. After much thought, the subordinates immediately contacted Joseph.

Upon hearing the news, Joseph's face instantly turned grave. Without time to inquire about the specifics, he instructed not to inform the elders for the time being, then hurried off to the hospital.
