The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 231

Neera felt nothing was wrong.

She wanted to refuse Levi, but she heard Jean's faint voice with an inexplicable indifference. "Who are you?"

With only a few words, Levi felt a burst of pressure. In front of Jean, Levi's imposing manner was a lot shorter!

Levi felt subconsciously afraid. But in front of Neera, he did not want to lose face and dignity as a man, so he raised his head stiffly and pretended to speak calmly.

"Mr. Beauvort, I'm the general manager of Startales, Levi Wilkes. I'm Neera's subordinate. I worked with Neera abroad for a while before. I've heard about you for a long time. It's rare to see you today. It's my pleasure."

Listening to Levi's self-introduction, Jean was cold. He became more indifferent when he heard Levi call Neera intimately.

He asked indifferently, "Are you going to send Neera back?"

Levi nodded and explained, "Neera is my boss. I can send her back."

Jean said coolly, "Since you're her subordinate, you should know to keep your distance. Do you need me to teach you such a simple truth?"

He was expressionless, but his aura was strong and inexplicably revealed a sense of power. "Besides, what's your right to send her home?"

Levi froze and felt embarrassed.

"Neera and I aren't only subordinates. We're also friends. It shouldn't be a problem to send a friend home, right?"

Jean's tone became even colder. "Since you're friends, you should keep your distance. I can send her back."

Levi had gotten suppressed by his coercion and felt upset.

After hearing what Jean said, Levi became even more impatient and anxious. "What about you? What's your right to send her home?"

Hearing Levi's questioning, Jean looked mocking.

"I shouldn't need to tell you, right? You only need to know that she wants to come with me!"

His words were domineering and undeniable, which made Levi choke.

Not only that, but Jean deliberately pulled Neera closer to him. His movements were full of possessiveness to declare his sovereignty.

Neera was unprepared and bumped into his arms. As she was a little dazed, she took a while to react.

She finally realized that the atmosphere between Jean and Levi was wrong.

So, she poked Jean's chest. "Don't bully my subordinate!"

Hearing that, Jean looked at her and asked, "Do you want him to take you home?"

Levi was happy to see Neera speak for him, but Neera denied Jean. "No, Levi and I are friends. He's out of good intentions, but..."

She turned to look at Levi and spoke orderly, "Levi, I won't bother you. Jean will send me home. You're also tired. Go back early."

Levi's expression froze, and his expression was ugly. Jean raised his eyebrows in satisfaction, and his displeasure also quietly dissipated.

He looked over at Levi. "Do you hear it? Next time, if something like this happens again, I'll pick her up. Neera is mine. No outsiders are needed!"

Without waiting for Levi's reaction, Jean hugged Neera's waist, turned around, and entered the car.
