The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 686

He looked sideways to see Neera was asleep while leaning against him.

Jean's movements became gentler. He made a gesture to Ian.

The latter understood and immediately brought a blanket.

Jean took it and covered her carefully without disturbing her sleep.

He continued to work.

It was dawn when Neera woke up. She noticed that she was still leaning against Jean, with an extra blanket on her.

"You’re awake?"

Neera looked up and frowned.

"My neck is a little sore."

Jean massaged her neck immediately.

"You were up all night? Is it done?"

"Almost."

“You're going to the company directly? Don’t you need some sleep?”

Jean looked at the time. “I think so, the shareholders' meeting is at ten."

"There are still a few hours left. Sleep for a while, okay? Otherwise, your body won't be able to take it."

Jean laughed, "Okay, but you have to accompany me."

Neera blushed.

Ian helped Jean to get what he wanted. “Mrs. Beauvort, please keep an eye on sir. He only slept for four hours yesterday and he hasn't rested until now. It would take a toll on his body.”

When Neera heard this, she quickly got up and pulled Jean with her. “Stop working now. I’ll accompany you.”

Jean got up and followed behind Neera. He didn’t forget to look at Ian with appreciation.

"Sir, don't worry, and go to sleep. There's not much left, I can handle them."

"Go and rest after that."

"Yes!"

Neera was still very sleepy. As soon as she lay down on the bed, she fell asleep again.

Jean smiled when he saw Neera sleeping soundly after he came out from the showers.

He gently lay down and kissed her on the forehead before going to sleep.

It was almost 9 AM when Neera woke up.

Jean was putting on his shirt while she enjoyed the scene.

“Like what you see?” He teased her.

“Yes!” Neera answered playfully.

She’s so adorable. Jean went over and leaned in to kiss her.

"I've got to continue my work. I'll let you tease me when I'm free.” He flirted.

Neera ducked under the covers and blushed.

“Are you going to wake up now?” he asked.

“Yes.”

After Neera washed up, they went downstairs together to have breakfast.



At 10 AM, the shareholders’ meeting was held as scheduled at the Beauvort Group.

Jean and Ian arrived on time with a few employees from the finance department.

The atmosphere was tense the moment he came in.

Jean sat at the center while Frederic sat beside him.

“These are the financial reports which the finance department and I had sorted out these two days. Please take a look.”

The people from the finance department came forward and presented the documents.
