The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 600

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Maple Cafe.

Thora and the man on the phone met as scheduled.

The man's name was Alistair, whom Thora met in college.

The two were from different departments, but Alistair had pursued Thora for a long time.

Although he was repeatedly rejected, he never gave up.

At this time, when he saw Thora, his eyes were full of undisguised surprise and enthusiasm, "Long time no see, Thora, you have become more beautiful! Why didn't you tell me in advance when you returned home this time? I would have picked you up."

Although Thora had no feelings for him, her vanity was still satisfied.

She responded, "I also had something to do urgently, so I came back."

"Is it because of work?"

Alistair asked, "How long will you be around this time?"

"It should be a while."

Thora took advantage of the situation to get to the point, "To tell you the truth, I came to you this time because I have something to ask for your help. I remember... When you graduated, you said you wanted to start a detective company when you came home. How are you doing now?"

"It's very successful. The income has been good in the past few years, and because of special reasons, I had made connections with a lot of people in the upper class. After all, this industry, you know..."

Alistair couldn't help but be a little proud.

Thora actually didn't care at all about how his business was doing, but she still complimented him patiently, "That's cool."

"I am thankful for it, but compared to you, I am nothing."

Alistair pretended to be modest, and then asked, "By the way, you just said to ask me for help, what is it?"

Thora said, "There is something I want to entrust you to investigate... You are so capable now, I think this matter is not difficult for you."

Alistair was taken aback by what she said, "That's right, there is nothing I can't find out in Kingsview, you've come to the right person. Tell me, what do you want me to find out?"

Thora smiled slightly, "Do you know about the Beauvort Group? I want to know the specific condition of Jean."

Alistair was very surprised.

With his current status, even if he could get in touch with the upper class in Kingsview, he still had no chance to establish a relationship with Beauvort Group.

He was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to reject it.

Thora continued to flatter him calmly, "At the beginning, I didn't know whether I should look for you, after all, Jean's status is too high to be accessible to ordinary people, but I heard that you are doing well now, and you have built your reputation, so I thought, apart from you, no one else can help me..."

Having said all this, how could Alistair reject it?

Not to mention, Thora was someone he liked.

In order not to show timidity in front of her, he agreed without hesitation.

"Okay! It's a trivial matter, leave it to me!"

Thora smiled with satisfaction, her eyes were full of calculations...

...

Neera napped until the evening.

She was in a daze after she woke up, and only after a while that she remembered where she was.

She subconsciously looked for Jean in the room.

He wasn't there.

She got up quickly and went outside to find someone.

Jean was nowhere to be seen, but she saw the three little ones.

She asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

The three little guys immediately gathered around, their faces full of concern.

"Mr. Assistant picked us up from school. We heard that Uncle Jean had an attack last night. We were so worried, so we asked Mr. Assistant to send us here."

"Mum, have you had a good rest? Are you still tired?"

Neera smiled softly, "I'm good, Mommy is not tired."

After answering, she asked again, "Where's Uncle Jean?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jean walked over from the corner, holding a glass of steaming water in his hand.

"You're awake."

Seeing her, the man raised his eyebrows slightly, "I reckoned you would be up, so I went to pour you a glass of water, right, you can drink now."

Neera's heart warmed up, she received the glass he handed over, and took a couple of sips.

Then she asked the man, "How do you feel now? Are you still tired?"

Jean shook his head, "Much better."

Neera took a look at his expression, and was completely relieved when she saw that there was nothing unusual about him.

After dinner, Neera called Ian again.

"Send Mr. Beauvort and the children away, I shall stay here, I still have things to deal with."

When Jean heard this, his eyebrows furrowed again.

Neera knew what he was going to say at once, "Don't worry, I won't work till late or stay up all night. I can go back at about nine o'clock tonight. You have to get treatment tonight, so I won't stay here too Long."

Jean was a little skeptical, "Are you sure?"

Neera nodded, "Sure, I am absolutely sure!"

The three kids suppressed a smile, wanting to remind her.

Mommy, you are so cowardly!

Your husband is so strict!

Satisfied, Jean picked up the three little ones and took them away.

After that, Neera went back to the lab to work again.

At nine o'clock in the evening, she returned home on time as agreed.

Jean was sitting in the living room, and Ian was also there, seeming to be reporting something.

Seeing that Neera was back, Ian greeted her immediately.

"Mrs. Beauvort, you are back."

Neera nodded, she saw Jean's long face and asked, "What's the matter?"

Jean hesitated, and told her, "Roxanne is released early."
