Shortly after Jean returned to the Imperial Gardens, he received a report from Cloud.
"We brought the offenders to the police station. Our men are unharmed."
Jean nodded and said, "Have you found out where the attackers are from?"
"They should be from Nacrene. The scar-faced man has just been released after a twelve-year prison term. As far as I know, he had just joined Nacrene not long ago."
"I suppose the Crimea family is behind this," Jean said coldly.
Cloud nodded. "That won't be surprising. The scar-faced man isn't anyone important in the organization, and his subordinates are all random hooligans. I don't think Nacrene would admit any fault."
Jean chuckled. It sounded like what Sonny would do.
Not only was he cruel, but he also knew how to cover his tracks.
"Looks like he hasn't learned anything from the lesson yet!" Jean said coldly. "Give me a report on properties owned by Crimea Group and Nacrene. Get it done as soon as possible."
Cloud nodded and said, "Yes, Sire."
After Cloud left, Jean summoned Storm. "Get more people to protect Neera and the triplets."
If Sonny dared to attack him, who was to say he wouldn't do the same to Neera and the triplets?
Jean had to be prepared.
"Yes, Sire. I'll go and make preparations now," Storm said and quickly left.
…
Neera was oblivious to what happened.
The next morning, she sent the triplets to school before going to her office.
She had not sat down for too long before she received a call from Jean. "Neera, are you busy?"
Neera was surprised that Jean had called her by her first name.
He only does that when we're at his parents' house. Did something happen earlier today?
"Not very. What's up?" Neera replied.
Jean did not beat around the bush. "Can you come over to Ian's house? He's injured, and things aren't looking too great."
Neera immediately stood up. "Give me the address. I'll go there now."
"Okay," Jean replied and ended the call.
In a few seconds, Neera received a message containing the location of Ian's house. She wasted no time getting there.
Storm was the one who answered the door. Neera had never seen him before, and she thought she had gone to the wrong house.
Jean appeared behind Storm. "You're here," he said.
"Mm." Neera calmed herself down and went inside.
As soon as she stepped into the house, she saw Ian slumped on the sofa. His face was as pale as a sheet.
Shocked, she asked, "What happened? He looks terrible! Is he heavily injured?"
If she hadn't seen Ian's chest moving slightly, she even thought he was dead!
"I don't know. I think it's poison," Jean said grimly.
Neera was appalled when she heard that poison was involved. She quickly stepped forward and examined Ian's wound.
At first glance, the wound seemed typical. However, Neera noticed that rashes were forming around it. The blood that oozed from the wound was slightly purple.
Neera said confidently, "Yes, it's poison. The blood is already purple… What happened? He was fine yesterday."
Jean hesitated for a moment before deciding that Neera deserved to know he was ambushed the night before.
"What?" Neera was shocked to hear that. She blurted, "Are you hurt?"
Her brows were knitted together. It was obvious that she was very worried about him.
