The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 657

Neera expressed her gratitude and invited Fabio and others to have lunch together.

After the meal, several assistants left. Fabio had nothing to do and stayed to play chess with Jean.

Neera originally wanted to stay with them but had something to deal with, so she went upstairs.

Downstairs, Jean and Fabio played chess while chatting.

Fabio remembered something and took the initiative to mention it, "Beauvort Group seems to be holding a family assembly recently, right? By then, all your messy relatives will be back."

Jean nodded lightly.

Fabio was worried. "Those people may be hiding something bad and want to cause trouble for you."

He paused and glanced upstairs. "And it seems that many people know about Neera. They might make a fuss about it."

Jean snorted disdainfully. "Wait until they can sit in my position and question anything I do."

Fabio thought about it and thought it was right. Others did not know Jean's ability, but he knew it best. Jean was more than capable of dealing with those cunning relatives.

He felt relieved and laughed. "Well, I worry too much."

He still had a question and asked, "Jean, are you going to be with Neera for the rest of your life?"

Jean paused, and the image of Neera sleeping soundly in his arms last night suddenly appeared in his mind. He instantly became gentle.

He said warmly, "Yes."

Fabio smiled heartily and was truly happy for Jean.

"Okay, then I wish you all the best. I've never seen you care so much about anyone in your life. I can see that Neera is also good to you. I'm a little envious of you."

Jean raised his eyebrows. "If you're envious, you can find one."

Seeing that Jean won the chess game, Fabio was not unhappy. He threw away the chess piece and smiled lazily.

"How can it be so easy to find a life partner? True love is rare in the world. I don't know if I have such good fortune as you..."

Soon, Fabio left, and Ian came to report to Jean, "Sir, those people have already set off and returned from abroad."

Jean narrowed his eyes slightly and ordered, "Keep an eye on those secretly trying to act. If they make trouble for me, give warnings to them."

He did not care about his relatives. But he did not want Neera to be affected.

...

With Jean watching, Neera was forced to stay home for two days and only returned to the research center when her health improved.

"Neera, the development of the third reagent isn't going well." Osbert looked upset when he saw her.

Neera looked at the research data and pointed to a few of them. "There are problems with this data. They're unacceptable."

Luigi was also worried. "If we discard these few data, we also need to discard these three sets of experiments."

Neera looked at the experimental table and made a quick decision. "If it's invalid, discard them. We can't have problems in the research. Keep doing it again!"

As a result, the progress slowed down again. To make up for it, Neera stayed up all night and spent more than 20 hours in the laboratory before obtaining the correct data.

The next day, she finally rested and was about to have breakfast when she saw Thora coming.

"What are you doing here?" Neera asked coldly.

Thora rolled her eyes. "Do you think I'm willing to come to this crappy place? I'm here to get the first and second reagents for my father. He's waiting for them. I have to send them over as soon as possible! If you delay it, you can't bear the responsibility!"

Neera knew about that, so she did not say anything and let Osbert prepare the reagents.

Thora took the opportunity to sneer. "Your progress is slow. Why did you take so long to develop the reagents? Even turtles are faster than you!"

Neera did not feel unhappy and retorted, "At least I'm much better than you. You didn't even develop a single reagent. Weren't you the one who led the team when you were abroad? Don't you feel ashamed to laugh at me?"

Thora choked, turned gloomy, and glared at Neera. "Just wait and see! Sooner or later, you can't be proud of yourself anymore!"

Neera raised her eyebrows and calmly responded, "I'm indeed proud of myself. You're probably going to be mad to death, right?"

"You!" Thora was furious.

At this time, Luigi and Osbert returned while carrying a small box.

This box had a function that could balance the temperature of the reagents and prevent the reagents inside from breaking.

Osbert gave a few words of advice, but Thora became impatient. "I know it! I've used it before! Do you think I'm a fool?"

Osbert was never tolerant of her, so he sneered and ridiculed her, "I didn't think that, but I don't think you're smart either."

Thora became very angry after being criticized by two people one after another.

She knew she could not defeat Osbert, so she gritted her teeth, snorted, carried the box, and walked away angrily.

The more she thought about it, the more unreconciled she became. So she called Kyra gloomily after she came out. "How are your preparations going? When will the arrangements be ready?"
