The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1528

Chapter 1528 The Grand Finale

After returning from their honeymoon, Neera, carrying bags of various sizes, made her way to Grace Hospital.

At that moment, Isabella had just completed a major surgery. Rushing to the office after a quick shower and change of clothes, she collapsed onto the couch, too exhausted to lift a finger.

Neera reached the door and knocked twice. “Bell, are you there? It’s me.”

Isabella was in a daze. Recognizing the voice, she mumbled a couple of times with her head buried before raising her voice to say, “Come in.”

Neera blinked, discerning from the woman’s weak and breathless voice that she had just finished a surgery.

Upon entering, unsurprisingly, there was no one in sight.

With practiced ease, she maneuvered around the couch, discovering Isabella nestled within it. Squatting down with a smile, she playfully poked the half of Isabella’s face that was visible.

“Bell, it’s me. I’ve come to bring you presents.”

Without even opening her eyes, Isabella swatted her hand away and weakly remarked, “No present will help now; I’m already a wreck. Are you here to collect my body? How kind of you… Thank you…”

Neera chuckled, “What a mess you’re in. Wake up now. The limited edition bag and necklace you specifically asked for, I’ve bought them all for you.”

At these words, Isabella’s eyes shot open as if injected with adrenaline. Swiftly propping herself up on the couch, she sat upright.

Just as she was about to speak, her gaze moved past Neera and fixed on the man behind her. She was completely

stunned.

Neera noticed her standing still as if someone had suddenly hit her with some magic. Out of curiosity, she reached out and waved in front of Isabella.

“Hey, wake up. You’re not meditating again, are you?”

While conversing, Neera noticed Isabella’s disheveled hair, prompting her to casually smooth it out.

As she made this tactile adjustment, Isabella only then realized the extent of her unkempt appearance. Her face instantly turned extremely scarlet, and she abruptly threw herself back onto the couch, her voice muffled as she shouted, “You… You guys go out first!”

Neera wore an inexplicable expression on her face. However, due to the presence of others, she refrained from saying much. Instead, she took Zephyr and left.

After walking out, she suddenly turned her head to stare at Zephyr, as if she had belatedly understood something.

Feeling a bit uneasy under her intense gaze, the man pursed his lips and inquired, “Ms. Garcia, is there something on my face?”

Neera suddenly chuckled with a meaningful smile. “No, no.”

Tsk, Bell’s so obsessed with appearance. It looks like romance is knocking on her door!

By the time Isabella took the initiative to open the door, allowing them to re-enter, she had already freshened up. Neera observed that her friend not only applied foundation but also put on lipstick and eye makeup.

Wow, she got all that done in such a short time. How impressive!

“Oh dear, Neera, why didn’t you tell me before you came? I could have prepared and given you a proper welcome.” Isabella affectionately held onto Neera’s arm, yet her eyes subtly glanced toward Zephyr. “I’ve never seen this gentleman before. Who is he?”

Zephyr addressed Isabella in a professional tone, “I’m Ms. Garcia’s personal bodyguard. My name is Zephyr. Nice to meet you, Ms. Lopez.”
