The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1123
Upon ending his sentence, the man opened the rear door of the Rolls-Royce. “You've had a tough journey, My Lord. Please, get in the car.”
Jean nodded, strode toward the car, and sat inside.
The man closed the car door and turned around to greet Ian and his companions.
“It's been a while, but why do you appear injured?” He pointed to the bandage wrapped around Ian's head, somewhat curious.
Ian touched his forehead and chuckled. “I got this when I was attacked a few days ago, and the car flipped over. It's nothing serious. I appreciate your concern, Mr. Tiago.”
The man known as Mr. Tiago was indeed Tiago.
“I see. It seems that no matter where we are, our lord will always be surrounded by chaos.” After Tiago finished speaking, he noticed the unmistakable fatigue on their faces and decided not to ask any more questions. “Let's go. We should head back first. We can catch up on old times once we're home.”
Ian's group nodded in agreement. “Let's head inside, Mr. Tiago.”
Tiago promptly walked around the back of the car and directly sat in the back row with Jean.
Before long, the convoy slowly departed from the airport. The grand spectacle attracted countless onlookers who stopped to watch.
On the way back, Tiago leaned against the back of the chair, unabashedly sizing up Jean.
Jean's beautiful upturned eyes, inexplicably shimmery, exuded an air of charm.
Jean casually lifted his eyes to meet Tiago's gaze. Then, as if somewhat disdainful, he shifted his gaze away. “If you keep staring at me, the others may start questioning your sexual orientation.”
The car suddenly swerved to the left, the driver drenched in sweat.
Tiago couldn't help but laugh. “After all this time apart, you've actually learned to tell jokes. Who would have thought? “
Jean revealed a half-smile. “Whether it's a joke or not is still uncertain.”
Tiago teased leisurely, “Don't worry, my sexual orientation is perfectly normal. Even if it weren't, I won't dare lay a finger on someone as noble as you, My Lord.”
That time, the car swerved to the right. The driver was completely flustered.
The person next to him, Ian, was quite calm. He glanced at the driver and said, “Your driving skills still need some polishing.”
The driver stammered, “Y-Yes.”
Jean was speechless.
The conversation was veering off course, but fortunately, Tiago knew when to stop. He changed the subject and asked, “Why do you still look so worn out? Are you feeling any better?”
“Feeling better,” Jean answered indifferently.
Tiago sharply countered, “That doesn't sound at all convincing.”
Jean lightly pursed his lips, too lazy to explain, and steered the conversation back on track. “How are things in Phison now?”
“The unregulated five districts are in chaos right now. There are five families and three factions participating in the election, and the slots have been confirmed. Among them, five are affiliated with Bartitsu Guild. As for the Guild itself, all Eight Elders will be present.”
After listening, Jean narrowed his eyes. His fingers bent, idly tapping on his knee.
He couldn't be bothered to inquire about the families and factions. He simply ordered, “Keep an eye on the Cox family from the Eight Elders and the Gordon family, who's also attending the election.”
Upon hearing that, Tiago was taken aback. “How did you know the Gordon family is on the election list? And why are you keeping an eye on the Cox family? Are they up to something behind the scenes?”
Jean glanced at Tiago, not really wanting to explain.
He still wanted to maintain his pride in public. How could he possibly admit that he was acting that way because he was worried about his woman being taken away from him?
Tiago was perplexed. The more Jean kept silent, the more Tiago wanted to know. “What, you can't even tell me why?”
Seeing the situation, Ian had no choice but to respond on Jean's behalf. “Actually... Mrs. Beauvort is the successor of the Gordon family, and also, well... The one from the Cox family Mr. Beauvort's love rival.”
Upon hearing that, Tiago was taken aback. He hadn't expected such a turn of events.
He remembered that the Gordon and Cox families were connected by marriage. As he raised an eyebrow, an amused expression quickly surfaced on his face.
“Oh? I didn't expect My Lord to have taken a liking to someone from the enemy's side. In that case, I'll have someone keep a close eye on them. Don't worry,” said Tiago.
Jean corrected with displeasure, “What enemy? She was originally mine. It's just that due to some unexpected circumstances, she ended up as the successor of the Gordon family. Moreover, in the future, the Gordon family will belong to Phison!”
Jean nodded, strode toward the car, and sat inside.
The man closed the car door and turned around to greet Ian and his companions.
