The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 85

Jean would never turn down his mother's request. However, this time he spoke a little differently, saying, "The research team is still in the cooperation period. I made an investment in the research center where she works. I'll visit there to inspect if necessary." It implied that after the cooperation was over, he wouldn't return to the research center.

Wrenn grinned with satisfaction as she heard what he said. She then continued, saying, "That's good to know; you always know what you're doing, and I trust you with it."

Jean was going to leave after the meal, but Mr. Frederic stopped him and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you stay a little longer?" Jean put down his suit jacket, walked to the chess table, and took a seat. Mr. Frederic snorted and took a seat across from him. They played chess without speaking. After two sets, Jean stood up and said his goodbyes, and Mr. Frederic finally let him go.

Jean was sitting inside the car. He then glanced out the window and exclaimed, "In the future, Joanna's crew members may assist regarding my condition, but Joanna herself doesn't need to intervene anymore!" Ian nodded and was well aware that Joanna had infuriated Sire. Joanna did not need to appear in front of Sire in the future after he became dissatisfied!

...

Roxanne had returned to the Garcias' villa. She appeared agitated. Susan hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Roze, what's the matter with you? Why is your expression odd? Didn't Zach take you out to buy a sports car? Could it be that he broke his promise?" Roxanne frowned and handed her the car keys, but she had no intention of showing off.

"He didn't break his promise! He bought the car!" Susan looked at it, grinned, and pushed her to a seat, assuming they were in another fight.

"He bought you such an expensive sports car. Why are you still dissatisfied? Zach treats you so well, so please be understanding if you two argue," said Susan.

Alfonso agreed, saying, "Your mother is right; you must marry into the Fain family, and you need to control your temper." Roxanne had been furious; she yelled, "Neera is the only one to blame for the way I'm acting right now!" Alfonso and Susan were confused when they heard this.

"How did you become involved with Neera, and did you meet her again?"

"Yes, I've met her!" What happened at the store during the day was described furiously by Roxanne. They were all shocked to learn that Neera genuinely lived in Imperial Gardens and purchased a car for eight million dollars in total.

"Are you telling the truth, Roze?" Susan questioned.

"Of course it's true; I witnessed it with my own eyes", Roxanne said as she gave them both a glance.

Susan was stunned, and it took some time for her to recover. She was insanely jealous. She hoped Neera lived a miserable life! But as a result, she traveled overseas for a few years and rose to great power! She lived in a mansion they couldn't afford, and she drove a luxury car they couldn't afford and it was not fair to her.
