The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 923

Jean immediately sneered. “Not much talent, but quite audacious, daring to covet even F.A Group.”

Since that was the case, he didn't mind destroying everything this man had.

Anyone who dared to lay a finger on Neera would end up with nothing.

He raised his voice and summoned Storm, giving him a stern command, “Pack your things and return to the country immediately. Eradicate all of Asher's operations within our borders.”

This individual had to be leaning on someone powerful to display such bold behavior.

Whether his backing was the mafia or the black market in Essley, Jean would not allow anyone to think about harming his woman.

Storm promptly acknowledged and left to execute the orders.

Once he was gone, Jean turned to Ian.

“Get in touch with Nightshade and instruct him to suspend all activities for the time being. We'll wait for news from Storm about Asher's backers. Once they emerge, we'll eliminate them all.”

“Understood.”

Ian nodded and departed to contact Nightshade.

In the room, only Jean remained.

He leaned against the headboard, his expression still composed, but his eyes were devoid of any light.

Ever since Neera became the heir to F.A Group, what she possessed became even more desirable.

All of this, however, had its origins in Alfonso.

If Jean had known that this trouble would arise, he should have dealt with Garcia Group right from the start.

The next morning, Neera made time to meet with Rebecca's design team with her aunt by her side.

They discussed the requirements for the wedding gown and clarified some details.

Chad patiently accompanied them, offering occasional suggestions.

Jean had some business matters to attend to and joined them later around lunchtime.

After a joyful family lunch, they went their separate ways.

Later, Neera took Jean to the café.

When they arrived, they discovered that the café was unexpectedly closed for the day.

However, there was a young woman standing at the entrance, occasionally looking around as if waiting for someone.

After getting out of the car, Neera greeted her proactively.

“Hello, are you a staff member of this café? Is the owner here?”

The young woman appeared to be in her early twenties, with a fresh and attractive appearance.

She looked Neera up and down before introducing herself.

“I'm not a staff member here. My grandfather is the owner of this café. My name is Leila Saunders. Are you Ms. Neera Garcia?”

Neera nodded in agreement. “Yes, I am.”

Upon hearing Neera's words, Leila Saunders was pleasantly surprised.

“Ms. Garcia, hello! I didn't expect you to be so young. Please come in; my grandfather is eagerly awaiting you.”

Soon, Neera and Jean were invited inside by Leila.

Willard Saunders, upon hearing the commotion, immediately got up to welcome them.

“Neera, you're here. We didn't open today specifically to receive you. Please, don't feel constrained.”

Neera smiled gently. “Not at all. I hope I'm not causing any inconvenience to your business.”

“No worries; a day without opening won't make much of a difference.”

Willard waved his hand and then glanced at Jean, momentarily taken aback.

After a brief pause, he finally asked, “This is...”

Neera explained with a smile, “This is my fiancé. He's here waiting for me. I hope it's not an issue.”

Willard didn't mind at all.

Since Neera was here to treat him, some level of trust was necessary.

Beside them, Leila couldn't contain her anxiety as she asked, “Ms. Garcia, do you really have a way to treat my grandfather's illness?”

She was visibly emotional, clearly having been worried about her grandfather's illness for a long time.

Neera spoke candidly. “At the moment, I don't have absolute certainty. However, I made preparations yesterday, and I've already prepared the medications I can use. I'll do my best to treat him. Let me explain the treatment plan...”

The four of them sat down, and Neera provided a general overview of Willard's condition regarding the wug pests inside his body and the approach to guide the treatment.

“I've always been straightforward. I believe you should already understand the seriousness of the situation. The wug pests have been residing in his body for many years, even attaching near his heart, which can have a severe impact on his health. That's why I can't take any unnecessary risks. I'll pursue a conservative treatment approach, attempting to remove the wug pests within a manageable range. If necessary, I'll do my best to suppress their activity and harm...”

Regardless, her primary goal was to heal and not to endanger lives through overly aggressive treatment.
