The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 694

Thora was feeling uneasy. She regretted taking this job.

She put on a calm facade. I wouldn’t give up easily even if it’s dangerous. I don’t want to live under Neera’s shadow forever.

“Can you do it or not? Why aren’t you starting your treatment?” Ian asked suspiciously.

Thora snapped back to her senses and glared at him.

She could only try to temporarily suppress Jean's condition first.

She came up with a vicious method.

She had to place a needle in the meridian point of the heart and Jean would miraculously get better.

However, this was a dangerous method. Once there was another attack, it could bring harsh side effects on Jean’s body. He would be bedridden for at least half a month and he had to hold on tightly to his life. No one could predict when the attack would happen.

Thora slowly took out the silver needles, as she stared at Jean.

She wanted this to end quickly so she inserted the needle extremely fast at a spot near Jean’s heart.

“That’s all?” Wrenn asked anxiously.

Thora pretended to be confident and replied, "One needle is enough."

Everyone was a bit skeptical about it.

Ian questioned her directly. "Thora, even Ms. Garcia didn’t dare to say that she could finish the treatment with a needle. Are you sure about it?”

Thora hated when others compared Neera with her.

"That's because her medical skills aren't on par with me! Wait for another half an hour if you guys don't believe me. Let's see if Mr. Beauvort will get better or not. It will prove my medical skills!"

Ian had an intuition that Thora was unreliable but he could only wait now.

Half an hour later, Thora pulled out the needle.

Jean slowly opened his eyes.

He stared at the ceiling for a few seconds before realizing the people in his room.

Wrenn and Frederic rushed to his side with concern.

"Jean, you scared the hell out of us! How are you feeling now? Does it still hurt? Do you feel better?"

Jean remembered the attack he had before he passed out.

"I’m feeling much better now."

He still felt strange now. “Is Neera here?”

Karl stepped forward and said with a grin, "No, it was Ms. Hanson who cured you."

Jean noticed that there was an extra woman who shouldn't have been there in the first place.

He glared at Ian, “Why did you get her?”

Ian quickly explained, “I wanted to contact Ms. Garcia but Mr. Karl said he knew a doctor and he stopped me."

Jean turned to Karl. You’re doing this to prove that other people could treat my sickness as well. Neera would be useless in the eyes of the Beauvort family after this incident, especially to Mom and Dad.

Wrenn hadn't thought of that now as she was happy that Jean had woken up.

"Anyway, it's a good thing you're better now. We were worried sick just now…"

Jean didn't say anything and got out of bed.

"Where are you going? You're just getting better…" Wrenn asked.

Jean fastens his buttons, "To the office."

"What's the hurry, you've just had a seizure. You have to rest.”

“I’m fine with it.”

Before leaving, he glared at Karl sharply. “Thank you for your kindness, Karl.”

Karl trembled.

Frederic coughed lightly. "I gave permission for this. It was an emergency. Jean, we were all doing it for your good."

Jean left without looking back.
