The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 795
As soon as the words fell, Jean’s eyebrows raised, not in surprise, but in interest. “One single person tackled the stronghold?”
Storm nodded and opened his balled fist. There was a bullet on his palm.
“This was retrieved from the body of a Shadow Clan member.”
Jean took the bullet and looked at it with narrowed eyes.
“If I recall correctly, they’ve stopped manufacturing these kinds of bullets many years ago.”
Storm nodded. “Yes indeed, it was at least ten years ago.”
A neutral chuckle came out of Jean’s mouth. “It seems like this person is really something else, huh.”
Storm thought so too.
He hesitated a while, and continued. “I suspect that Zephyr knows who they are, but he’s not telling us.”
Jean lifted his eyelids and looked at him. “Why do you say that?”
“I saw that his expression looked a little strange as soon as he saw the bullet. Maybe I was overthinking it, but there’s also a possibility that he has some clues.”
Jean didn’t seem to mind though.
“He’s a hitman on the Hades Ranking. I’m sure he knew much of it. Plus, this person had such clean and precise moves to kill people with just one shot. I’m afraid that the killer has something to do with the Hades Ranking. Go find out about the model of this bullet. It’s illegal on the market, so it can only be accessed through special channels. I’m guessing that there’s not many of those in the world.”
“Yes sir, I’ll get on it.” Storm instantaneously nodded and accepted the order.
…
In the ANXIN Group office, Zephyr had also returned.
Neera saw his arrival, and asked about Thora’s whereabouts immediately.
Zephyr suppressed his clouded thoughts and shook his head. “I’m sorry, Ms. Garcia. We still haven’t found her yet.”
He wasn’t telling the truth.
He was actually quite sure of who had taken Thora away.
It was someone from the Cox family!
However, he was unsure what business they had with her.
Before he could figure it out, he wanted to keep it a secret from Neera, in case it brought her any more troubles.
“Is that so…”
Neera murmured and nodded. She looked a bit disappointed, but didn’t say much.
Maybe the members of the Shadow Clan weren’t idle people.
“It’s alright, you’ve worked hard.”
She continued lightly: “I need your help to continue looking for her. We need to find her no matter if she’s dead or alive.”
Zephyr nodded his head expressionlessly. “Yes, ma’am.”
Later, at four in the afternoon, Neera had finished her work in the office, and prepared to head home early to spend time with Jean and her children.
Then, Neil walked in and said: “Ms. Garcia, the reception downstairs just received a letter for you. They wanted you to open it personally.”
“Who sent it?” Neera asked.
Neil shook his head. “I’m not sure, but it wrote ‘Satan’ on the cover.”
As soon as he said that, he continued disdainfully: “Who even such a name? They don’t sound like a good person to me.”
Neera laughed. “It’s just a name. Let me see.”
She took the letter and opened it. There was an invitation card within it.
The invitation looked pretty formal. It was black with a gold embellishment on its edges. Even the words were embossed in gold.
It looked quite lavish. It probably signified that the sender was of high status.
“Dear Ms. Garcia, I sincerely invite you to dinner at the rooftop restaurant of the Grand Palace International Hotel. I hope you can honor your appointment.”
The signature was on the name of the envelope, Satan.
Afraid that she won’t accept the invitation, the person even stated that they were very close with Chad Gordon in the letter.
Neera was quite shocked.
Who is this person who was close with Chad?
How did they know of her existence, and even invited her to have dinner with them?
Neil took a few glances at the invitation and frowned. He felt that they were probably a scammer.
“I still think it’s best if you don’t go, Ms. Garcia. You haven’t even heard of them before, and they’re asking you out for dinner? Who knows what kind of person they are? What if they’re some kind of evil person…”
Neera laughed at him. “You’re thinking too much.”
She stared at the invitation again. Her eyes flashed slightly, and called for Zephyr.
“Does Uncle Chad know of anyone named Satan?”
Zephyr was taken aback by the name. “How did you know of this name?”
Neera handed him the invitation.
He was even more shocked.
He didn’t expect that the other party would make the first move. What were they really up to?
As he was trying to make sense of the situation, Neera asked: “It seems like you do know them?”
Zephyr hesitated. “Yes, I do. Mr. Gordon does too.”
Neera then nodded her head slightly. “Alright then, since you guys are acquainted, and they’ve invited me, I have to go then.”
She had to give face to Uncle Chad, after all.
Storm nodded and opened his balled fist. There was a bullet on his palm.
“This was retrieved from the body of a Shadow Clan member.”
Jean took the bullet and looked at it with narrowed eyes.
