The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 183

Just a moment ago, Jean was too preoccupied with examining her wound and didn't think much about it. Now, after being scolded by her, he finally realized what he had just done.

Nevertheless, he didn't back off; he still held her firmly, his anger barely concealed.

"Why did she hit you? If you were hit, why didn't you say anything earlier?"

Neera kept her head down, not wanting to look at him.

Seeing her silence, Jean furrowed his brow even tighter, trying to maintain his patience. He reached out and held her chin, forcing her to look up. "Speak up."

This posture made Neera feel even more uncomfortable, so she tilted her head back, avoiding his hand.

Seeing that he was determined to get to the bottom of things, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and answer, "Because my posture wasn't correct!"

Jean's face instantly turned dark, covered in clouds of anger.

He hadn't expected such a ridiculous excuse!

He never imagined that Dandy would resort to such cruelty.

This was clearly just finding fault and making things difficult!

It seemed that every time they met in the past, she had put on a friendly and amiable appearance, but in reality, she had a malicious and deceitful nature behind her back!

Jean felt inexplicably irritated.

Neera noticed that he had just looked at her body and was still holding her tightly. Her face turned red to the roots of her neck.

At this moment, she stomped her foot in anger and found it difficult to speak, but she had to ask sternly, "You've seen enough, haven't you? How long do you plan to hold me like this?"

Jean heard her words and only then realized how close they were, how ambiguous their position was...

He was stunned for a moment before releasing his hold on her waist and taking two steps back, his cold and solemn face showing a hint of apology.

"I'm sorry, this whole situation was caused by me. I should have stopped my mother from teaching you etiquette; then you wouldn't have gotten hurt."

Seeing him apologize proactively, Neera pursed her lips and didn't continue to hold a grudge.

Originally, she thought it was just an ordinary class, but she didn't expect Dandy to pull this kind of stunt.

And ultimately...

It was probably because of Kyra.

Kyra liked Jean, so Dandy targeted her in retaliation!

Thinking of this, Neera suddenly became indignant.

She had suffered this injury for no reason at all!

Now this man was even looking at her body... She was just so unlucky!

She couldn't help but raise her eyes and glare at Jean.

But perhaps due to her embarrassed expression, it seemed to have a hint of coquettishness.

Jean's eyes flickered slightly, and he stopped her again, refusing to let her go.

Neera asked, "What now?"

Seeing that she was about to explode in anger, he lightly lifted his thin lips and said calmly, "Your wound needs to be treated. Let me help you."

Hearing this, Neera couldn't help but feel amused, "What? Do you still want to take advantage of me?"

Jean was momentarily stunned, remembering the beautiful sight he had just seen, his eyes couldn't help but flicker.

However, he maintained a calm demeanor and explained seriously, "Rest assured, I have no such thoughts towards you. Besides, I've already seen it, so there's nothing new to see. And, as you said, doctors don't differentiate between male and female patients, so I'll treat you the same way. Most importantly, your injury was caused by me, so I should take responsibility."

What do you mean by "I've already seen it, so there's nothing new to see"...

Neera felt a little awkward hearing this.

She rolled her eyes and grumbled discontentedly, "You're not even a doctor, and I'm not your patient."

"That doesn't matter."

Jean didn't care and persisted, "In any case, let me help you with the medicine. Otherwise, I won't let you go like this. You figure it out."

Neera: "..."

Clearly, she was the one who got injured, but why did he suddenly start threatening her?

Feeling both angry and amused, she couldn't win against this guy and had to compromise.
