The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 642

Jean opened the wine for Neera and poured it for her.

Neera took a sip, first tasted the bitterness of the wine, and then slowly had a hint of sweetness.

When she swallowed it, she felt a little sweet again. It was special.

Jean asked her, "How does it taste? Do you like it?"

Neera expressed her feeling, "It's not bad. Quite interesting."

Jean nodded. "Well, this is the advantage of this wine."

Neera understood something and laughed. "You specially asked me to come and drink this wine. Is there any meaning?"

Jean looked at her with tenderness, and his tone was gentle and patient. "I only want to tell you that all your suffering is over. The rest is sweetness."

Neera's eyelashes quivered slightly, and she looked back at him.

"You've suffered too much in the past. You'll be sweet in the future because I'm always by your side. I won't let anyone hurt you again. So don't let other things affect your mood. Understand?"

How could Neera not understand his intentions?

Jean was always so different. Only he could see through her fluctuation under the calm appearance.

Only he could perceive her small emotions.

Even if it was inconspicuous, Jean wanted to comfort Neera and erase her unhappiness. In this world, there would never be anyone like him again.

She suddenly smiled. "I understand. Don't worry. As long as you're here, I won't worry about anything."

After saying that, she took another sip. This wine tastes like juice. Why am I feeling tipsy?

She looked at Jean brightly. "Would you like a drink?"

Jean raised his eyebrows. "I always remember your orders. If I drink it, won't you be angry with me?"

Neera nodded affirmatively. "I'll be angry, of course."

Then, she said, "But you can drink it in other ways."

After saying that, she suddenly took the initiative to hook his neck and kiss his lips. The sweet fragrance of wine filled his lips.

Jean was stunned, then stared at her fair cheeks and bright eyes.

Suddenly, he let out a chuckle, which looked particularly sexy.

He hugged her, deepened the kiss, and wanted to absorb her sweetness.

After a long time, Neera could hardly breathe. Jean let go of her and reluctantly touched her lips.

Neera calmed down, moved her head back, and looked into his eyes. "Do you like this way?"

Jean's eyes were full of possessiveness. He hugged her back again, kissed her lips, and replied hoarsely, "I like it."

How could he not like it? He liked her very much.

Neera smiled coquettishly. "I also like your way of coaxing."

After hearing that, Jean could not help but giggle.

They stayed for a while, and Neera went back soon.

The next day, after breakfast, she went to the research center.

Obadiah's research and development of reagents progressed smoothly recently. If it was fast, Neera could complete it this month.

She was busy until noon when Levi suddenly called, "Neera, someone is coming to the company and wants to see you."

Neera frowned. "Is it the Garcia family again?"

"No, it's a family of three."

Levi paused and continued, "They said they're Nigel Marrow, Maggie Webb, and Wilfrid Marrow, your adoptive parents and younger brother in the countryside."

Upon hearing those three names, Neera was stunned and almost dropped the beaker. She did not expect that they would find her.

For a long while, she did not speak. It was not until Osbert opened the door that she returned to her senses and took a deep breath.

"I'll go over right away. You can lead the Marrow family to the reception room."
