The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 885

Jean walked outside after seeing her asleep and proceeded to check on the triplets first.

They were awake because they were so happy that they were unable to sleep. The triplets chatted together. They instantly stood up and were overjoyed to see Daddy arrive.

"Congratulations, Daddy, on your successful engagement to Mommy! We can always be together in the future!"

With a smile, Jean approached and took a seat, saying, "Thanks for your help; I have to thank all of you."

Harvey blinked and said, "Daddy, we are a family; you don’t need to say that," like a tiny adult.

"That's right!" Sammy agreed, saying, "We hope you can wed Mommy as soon as possible. Now when it's just a step away, hurry, Daddy!"

Jean couldn't help but laugh when his child persuaded him to marry for the first time.

After a while of speaking, Jean noticed that it was getting late and persuaded them to go to sleep. He waited until they finally calmed down before returning to the room.

Neera didn't sleep for very long. She was awakened by the phone in the middle of the night.

The intoxication had nearly completely subsided, but she was still a little disoriented when she picked it up, and it wasn't until she heard the voice that she recognized it was Chad.

"Uncle Chad, what happened? It's so late," asked Neera. She instantly woke up and sat up because she thought Aunt Adriana had had an accident.

"Is there something wrong with Aunt Adriana?"

Chad quickly denied, "It's not your Aunt Adriana, it's Avery."

Neera heaved a sigh of relief when she realized it wasn't Aunt Adriana, and then she pondered, "What happened to Avery?"

"He was attacked last night when he returned. He is currently in a life-threatening situation and might require your assistance. It's difficult to explain over the phone. I've requested that Zephyr take you up. Come take a look first."

Chad's tone was somber, and Neera could hear it.

She was unable to say no, so despite having a mild headache, she got up, changed her clothes, washed her face, and walked downstairs. At the time she left, it was four in the morning.

Jean may have slept more heavily than usual as a result of the successful proposal. Neera did not awaken him. She went downstairs and ordered Jean's men.

"After Jean awakens, inform him that I have something important to do and leave," said Neera.

Zephyr's car stopped outside the villa as soon as she finished speaking. Neera didn't waste any time because the situation was life-threatening.

"What's going on with Avery? What is the current situation?" She inquired when the car drove away.

"During the attack, he was hurt. There is something wrong with his body, but it is unclear what the cause of it is," Zephyr answered, his gaze fixed on the road ahead.

Neera was taken aback when she heard it. When she last spoke with Avery, she noticed that he was in good health and that there were no concerns. She had not anticipated this.

She simply nodded and remained silent. Zephyr soon drove her to Avery's house.

When Neera entered, she took a glance around and noticed that it was tightly secured, with bodyguards all around and everyone looking spectacular.

Neera hastily removed her sight and hurriedly stepped into the villa since she knew how powerful the Cox family was.

She expected Zephyr to escort her upstairs to his bedroom. He escorted her to the basement.

She was still perplexed at first, but once she got to the bottom of it, she understood.

It turned out that the villa's underground space was a sizable medical facility complete with cutting-edge machinery. At the time, Avery was in the medical room, and the medical staff was also present.

The corridor was visible through a glass panel.

A girl holding a bunny doll was standing next to Chad as he stood outside the door.

Neera recognized this person as the small girl who accompanied Avery to the dinner party. The little girl was about to cry and stare at Avery.

There were also two elderly individuals whom Neera had never met before.

"Uncle Chad." Neera approached and spoke.

"Neera, you are finally here," Chad said as soon as he turned around and spotted her.

Without saying much, he immediately introduced her to the two elderly guys sitting next to him.

"Mr. Ronald, Mr. Rio, this is Neera, my niece."

"Neera, these two are the elders of the Cox family."

Neera politely greeted the two elders right away. The two elders nodded and asked Ms. Garcia to treat Mr. Cox.

Neera said, "I'll try my best."

She didn't waste any more time getting ready and entering the medical room to examine Avery's condition.

Avery did sustain significant wounds.

The bullet dangerously struck the area adjacent to his heart; if it had missed by a few millimeters, he would have died.

"You have dealt with the bullet injury," Neera said suspiciously after thorough observation. "It shouldn't be a problem. Why are the body indicators still so abnormal?"

The medical professional standing next to her answered right away, saying, "The bullet wound is indeed okay, but the bigger problem comes from his own illness."
