The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 643

After hanging up the phone, she put down the beaker and stood there for a while before taking off her lab coat.

Since Osbert came in, he felt something was wrong and could not help but care.

"Neera, are you alright? I see that your complexion is bad. Is the Garcia family bothering you again?"

Neera managed to remain calm. "No, it's just that I have something to do in the company. I'll leave it to you. I'll go over there."

Seeing that she did not want to say more, Osbert did not ask any more questions.

"Okay, take your time on the road. Don't worry about the lab. Luigi and I are here."

"Hmm." Neera picked up her bag and left quickly.

On the way to Startales, she had been in a bad mood. Things from many years ago flooded into her mind.

She remembered that when Alfonso drove her out of the Garcia family, she had no place to stay and could only return to the countryside.

At that time, her only hope was that her adoptive parents could take her in. However, her adoptive parents were as profit-oriented as the Garcia family.

Her adoptive parents belittled her since childhood. After knowing she was not their biological daughter, they disliked her even more and felt raising her was in vain.

So, they were unhappy when they saw her getting driven back with nothing and pregnant. In particular, they also felt embarrassed.

They kicked her out without even giving her a meal.

She could only live in a dilapidated small hotel for a while. When she wanted to find a job to support herself, Adriana found her.

Gradually pulling back her thoughts, Neera tightened her hands on the steering wheel and sneered.

Why did her adoptive parents suddenly come to her?

…

Meanwhile, in the Startales' reception room, a middle-aged couple in plain clothes sat in front of Levi.

"Ms. Garcia will be here soon. You guys can wait here."

After saying that, he ordered his assistant to bring refreshments. His attitude was polite.

The middle-aged couple rubbed their hands and smiled flatteringly. "Okay, go ahead with your work. Don't worry about us. We'll wait here."

Levi had business to attend to, so he stood up and left without saying anything else. After he went out, the couple immediately revealed their true colors.

Maggie's eyes were shining, and everything she looked at was like looking at money.

"Nigel, have you seen this? This chair, this decoration! This room is so well-decorated! This company is so rich!"

She expressed repeatedly with excitement and envy. "I didn't expect that d*mn Neera would live so well!"

Nigel was also looking around non-stop. "I can see it! How much does such a place cost? It would be great if we could bring back this chair. This side table is also nice!"

Maggie spat. "You worthless thing! Pursue something more expensive!"

Neera was so rich now. She must buy them a big villa with good decoration, furniture and cars!

Their eyes were full of greed. Wilfrid, who did not say a word, could not bear his anger when he saw his parents' reaction.

"Enough! Sis is living a good life now! Why do you still bother her? What on earth do you want to do!"

His angry questioning startled Nigel and Maggie.

Maggie reacted quickly and immediately scolded, "What are you yelling about? We came here for your sake! You'll take the college entrance examination in one year. The school in our county seat is bad. You won't get a good college in the future!"

Nigel echoed, "Your mom is right. Now that Neera is living well. She must have a way out! We can ask her to transfer you to another school in the city and care for you. Then you'll have a good future!"

Upon hearing that, Wilfrid got angry and stood up.

"Don't use me as an excuse! I can get into whatever college I want! I know your plan. You see that Sis is living well, so you want to come over and ask for benefits from her! Did you forget how you treated her back then? You drove her away! How dare you ask for that! Stop being embarrassed here! Go home with me!"

After saying that, he was going to drag them away. But Maggie shook him off with a look of disapproval.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? We are her adoptive parents! We've raised her for many years and worked hard without any credit. What's wrong with asking for benefits? She must repay us!"

"That's right! Even if we don't come, she should visit us and honor us! It's already good enough that we don't blame her for being ungrateful! Why should we leave? Sit down! Stop making trouble!"

Wilfrid sneered. "Do you think I know nothing? Sis' aunt has already given you money! Even if there's any upbringing, she has already repaid it. What rights do we have to ask for benefits from Sis again? I don't need Sis to take care of me! Let's go home! Don't disturb Sis!"
