The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1248
The family chatted happily for a while, and then Avery and Chad retired to the study.
Once inside, Chad asked, "What exactly happened on Mount Cloud?"
The idea that Neera could secure the white flag and become the district president was completely inconceivable to him.
It wasn't because he doubted Neera's abilities. Instead, it was because Bartitsu Guild was extremely powerful, and Lordsworth Estate was also watching the situation like a predator.
As a result, it was inevitable that they would scheme against each other. Chad was always curious about how a young girl like Neera could navigate such dangerous circumstances.
Avery had been thinking about discussing the matter with Chad. Sitting across from him, he quickly told him everything.
The more Chad listened, the more astonished he became.
"Are you saying that she is being protected by Lordsworth Estate and they even gave her the white flag? How is that possible? Lordsworth Estate and Bartitsu Guild have always been at odds, and the Gordon family has no ties with Lordsworth Estate. Just because she once saved someone from Lordsworth Estate, they are favoring her now?"
Avery nodded. "Without a doubt. I found it hard to believe at first too. However, if it's an order from Lordsworth Estate, everything makes sense. Besides, I can't find any other reasonable explanation."
Chad frowned. "Could it be that Lordsworth Estate has other motives and they're using Neera to achieve their schemes?"
"At first, I felt the same way, wondering what Lordsworth Estate was really planning to do. But the more I thought about it, the less likely it seemed."
Avery pursed his lips and repeated what he had previously told Matthew.
"Lordsworth Estate wants the white flag and to take over the five districts to expand their sphere of influence. They could have easily done it themselves. They've already eliminated the other families aligned with Bartitsu Guild, so the Gordon family means nothing to them. They could have easily obtained it, but they insisted on giving the white flag to Neera. They even loudly proclaimed that Lordsworth Estate was just visiting for leisure, showing no interest in the position of district president. If it were just for show, then there would be no need for such a fuss. They would only be creating trouble for themselves."
After hearing his words, Chad found them quite sensible and nodded thoughtfully.
"You're right. Lordsworth Estate doesn't need to do this. From what I know about them, they tend to be transparent in their actions. Even if they have an agenda, they wouldn't resort to despicable methods. It seems they genuinely don't care about the district president, but... everyone siding with Neera is truly unheard of. I'm just afraid Bartitsu Guild would grow suspicious of the Gordon family. Avery, has the Cox family been involved in this?"
"The Cox family is fine, but the Gordon family has indeed been caught in the middle of the storm. However, Neera is now the district president, so no one dares to protest any further. The only uncertain factor is the guild... It's hard to predict. Mr. Lozano was barely convinced by my words and still wants me to assist the Gordon family. I guess on one hand, he's worried that Neera might not be able to handle it, and on the other hand, he's still concerned that the Gordon family might align themselves with Lordsworth Estate."
Chad sniggered. "The Gordon family has always been peaceful, never causing trouble or fighting for power in the guild over the years. What does he have to worry about? Even if we had the intention to side with Lordsworth Estate, we wouldn't use such obvious tricks that anyone could see through."
As he spoke, he let out another sigh.
"No matter what, this chaotic district president election has finally come to an end. I had intended to go myself, but Neera insisted that I stay away. Unexpectedly, this young lady has pleasantly surprised me. This is indeed a good thing. Now, no one in the Gordon family dares to question her position as the head of the family. She is the first one to elevate the Gordon family to such heights."
Avery nodded. "Indeed, no matter how Neera obtained the title of district president, what matters is that there are no disputes."
"I heard the entire Jennings family has been sent to Judgement Island? The head of the Jennings family has also lost his life?"
"Yes, Stella has repeatedly tried to harm Neera. Naturally, I couldn't let her live. She deserves to die!"
The topic sparked a cold glint in Avery's eyes.
"Just snapping her neck and letting her die quickly would be letting her off too easily!"
Chad nodded gently. "I appreciate the care and effort you have shown Neera during this time."
"Mr. Gordon, please don't say that. I am willing to take care of her and protect her. All that matters is that she's safe."
Avery pursed his lips and then returned to the main topic.
"As for the Jennings family, Lordsworth Estate took action against them that very night. The Jennings family must have sensed the impending disaster and tried to secretly send the younger generation away. However, they couldn't make it in time and ended up being taken away."

What kind of stupid confusion is this, how come she didn't know that the my bourvart they are talking about is Jean?...
Author uses too many words to describe useless things and then don't clarify others, who is this aunts friend. Neere went to play golf with who?...
Why is she keeping so many secrets from Jean?...
is it too much to ask, when are they going to know that Jean is the father of her triplets???? the man that night 6yrs ago is Jean???!!!!!!...
Chapter 328, did Alfonso not meet Jeann before, how does he not recognise him huh...
I'm a bit confused, does Roxanna not know that her sister is married..this chapter makes it look like she doesn't know but they already went to Jean for money huh...
