The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 906

Upon hearing that, Eugene and Daisy immediately understood.

They were both surprised. They did not expect that Neera would be accompanied by bodyguards this time.

Nevertheless, they didn't probe further.

“You should've told us earlier that you brought bodyguards along. The alliance is such a big place; it's not like it can't accommodate two people,” grumbled Eugene.

Neera cast him a sidelong glance, feeling amused.

“You've already made me jump through hoops when I ask you for a favor, not to mention what you'll make me do if I ask you to break the rules and let outsiders in! Wouldn't I be run ragged if you make excessive demands and want me to prepare you a sumptuous feast?”

Eugene merely snorted and ignored her.

Seeing the situation, Nicole scrunched her brows tightly. Confusion was written all over her face.

Why does it seem like Sir is on good terms with this woman? What on earth is going on? But no matter what, I can't let this woman muddy the waters.

Thinking of that, Nicole immediately refuted, “Since they're your people, you'd obviously protect them! How can we trust what you say? These two men clearly are the ones who provoked us first. The rest of the members here can vouch for it!”

Then, she continued telling tales.

“Sir, please don't believe in her excuses. The alliance has made it clear that no one must ever resort to violence on the island. These two men made the first move. That means they've violated the rules. Since that's so, they must face the consequences. According to the alliance's regulations, they must be imprisoned and put under observation for three months!”

Nicole sounded rather bold and confident as she talked about the rules.

Eugene didn't immediately state his standpoint upon hearing those words. Instead, he gave Neera a meaningful glance.

At the sight of his expression, Neera knew he wanted her to handle it herself.

She turned to Zephyr and Cloud. “Tell me, what's going on?”

Faced with Neera's questioning, Zephyr finally spoke up.

“The truth is as Cloud said. We refused to give in to their unreasonable demand to give up our seats. This woman grabbed the glass from the table and splashed water at us. That was why Cloud and I had to take action.”

Going by Zephyr's usual temperament, he would have resorted to killing if he encountered such an ignorant person.

However, considering that they were at the alliance and that Neera was around, he restrained himself and only resorted to violence.

Nicole, however, did not feel that she was in the wrong. Instead, she even raised her chin smugly.

“You heard it? He admitted that he's the one who made the first move.”

Neera nodded and responded with a cold laugh, “Yes, I heard it.”

After saying that, she suddenly grabbed the glass of water aside and splashed it toward Nicole's disgustingly hypocritical face.

“Ah—”

Startled, Nicole let out a scream. Her face was drenched.

Astonishment inundated everyone at the scene. They did not expect that Neera would actually take action in public.

Before anyone had come to their senses, Neera picked up another glass of water and splashed it at Nicole again.

Aside from her face, Nicole's entire body was also totally drenched.

Her hair was partially wet, and water was dripping off her chin. She was in a sorry state, looking like a drowned rat.

She stared at Neera in disbelief. “What are you doing? Have you lost your d*mn mind?” she roared hysterically.

A mocking smile tugged at Neera's lips. “You do think so? Judging from what you said earlier, you sounded like you think that acting out of sanity and splashing water doesn't count as physical violence. If that's the case, then what I'm doing now isn't as well, right?”

As her words fell, she splashed yet another glass of water over, almost as if she was not yet satisfied.

Nicole's face contorted with rage.

She was so livid her entire body trembled. An urge to slap Neera surged within her.

Nevertheless, since many people were watching, she could not take things physically despite feeling angry and frustrated. Left with no choice, she complained to Eugene, “Sir, look at what she's done! Aren't you going to do anything about it? Are you just going to let the members of our alliance be humiliated like this?”

Before Eugene could say a thing, Neera's frosty snicker rang out again.

“So, being a member of the alliance gives you a sense of superiority, is that it? The nerve of you to act so arrogantly and get too big on your boots! If that's the case, it would be better to take this opportunity to expel you lest you tarnish the reputation of the World Medical Alliance and give those uninformed the opinion that members of the alliance love throwing their weight around.”

“You—”

Fury flared with Nicole, her eyes bloodshot with bulging veins. Gnashing her teeth, she questioned, “Who do you think you are? Do you think you have the right to interfere with the World Medical Alliance's matters?”

Neera's lips curled up slightly, exuding an aura of absolute authority.

“Judging by the badge on your chest, you're merely a red badge member. I'm still capable enough to get rid of you if I want to.”

She then whipped her head to look at Eugene and said slowly, “We've gotten a good grasp of the situation here. What do you think, Mr. Grey?”
