The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 819

Around eight o'clock in the evening, Neera and Avery showed up at the auction site.

The event was very lively. The banquet hall was mostly filled with foreigners.

Therefore, when people caught sight of Neera and Avery, their unique appearance attracted a lot of attention.

For Avery, as a mixed race, he was used to this attention.

He calmly took Neera over to greet the organizer. He introduced, "Ms. Garcia, this is Daniel, the person in charge of this auction."

Neera greeted him courteously, "Hello, Mr. Daniel."

Daniel was amazed when he saw Neera. He quickly showered her with praise, "Ms. Garcia, you're so beautiful. Actually, you're the most beautiful Kingsviewers I have seen in years!"

Neera smiled and thanked him.

Subsequently, Daniel engaged in a friendly conversation with Avery, expressing, "Mr. Cox, it's been quite some time. Having you here is the greatest honor for me!"

Avery smiled faintly. Every gesture of his was full of the arrogance and dignity of someone accustomed to being in a high position.

"You're too kind."

The auction was about to begin, and Daniel personally escorted them to their seats.

The VIP box seats that Avery had reserved were on the second floor.

This box seat was decorated opulently, complete with top-notch decorations and furnishings. Fruits and wines were being served. One could catch everything that happened on the first floor from the booth.

Before he left, Daniel provided some detailed instructions.

"Mr. Cox and Ms. Garcia, if you see anything you like, you can press the bell on this table. The staff will bid for you."

After that, Daniel left the room.

Neera scanned around the room. She found several similar box seats located on the second floor.

The clever design made it impossible for others to pry from any angle.

After a glance, she withdrew her gaze and quietly waited for the auction to begin.

Avery was very considerate. He poured her a cup of tea.

"We just finished dinner. You should have some tea to help with digestion. The tea they serve is inferior compared with yours and certainly not as good as your tea-brewing skills, but it's still acceptable."

Neera thanked him and took a sip.

She thought to herself, this is more than just acceptable. It tastes good and is definitely made from top-grade tea leaves.

Neera was clueless that Jean was sitting in a box seat diagonally opposite her.

He was disinterested in drinking tea or eating fruit when left alone with the auction. His full attention was focused on the laptop in front of him. The screen was displaying Neera's box seats.

Jean's gaze swept toward Avery. He narrowed his eyes, and a dim light flashed through his eyes.

Inside the screen, Avery and Neera were sitting across from each other. Occasionally, they would exchange a few words. Each wore a polite smile on their faces.

Neera responded courteously, her faint smile revealing the two were unfamiliar. Moreover, her gaze was mostly focused on the first floor.

She didn't notice the possessiveness that occasionally appeared in Avery's eyes when he looked at her. This man was eyeing something that belonged to him.

Jean saw it clearly from the side.

Men understand men the best. He immediately understood what Avery was thinking. His gaze grew colder, bit by bit.

Inexplicably, he felt a little bothered by this man.

Avery had shown up far too frequently lately.

He couldn't sit down, do anything and waited for Neera to come home.

Therefore, he arrived at the auction to take a closer look at this man. He had grown suspicious of Avery; it was very likely that this man was a member of the Bartitsu family.

If Neera got involved in this mess, it might not be a good thing for her.

Surprisingly, he saw the scene he least wanted to see.

Instantaneously, his aura turned very depressed, and the temperature of the room felt as if it had dropped to freezing point.

He was overwhelmed with jealousy when someone coveted his wife.

A wave of uneasiness filled his heart, making him incredibly annoyed.
