The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 928

The visitor turned out to be Kyra, accompanied by Alex.

Neera was in her laboratory working on her medicines when her assistant Vanessa informed her about the unexpected visitors. She was somewhat taken aback.

“Kyra?”

“Yes, and there's a man with her who insists that you must treat her illness.”

Neera couldn't help but scoff at that. “Must? How typical of her. No matter where she goes, she always acts so high and mighty.”

She gave a cold, dismissive snort and instructed her assistant, “Just chase them away. I don't have the time for this.”

Getting her to provide medical help to a foreigner was already a difficult task, let alone someone with whom she'd had a disagreement.

After receiving her instructions, Vanessa immediately went out to convey them.

However, upon hearing those words, Alex's face fell.

In the blink of an eye, a group of subordinates appeared out of nowhere, completely blocking the entrance to the research institute.

Vanessa was taken aback, her face immediately tightened as she scolded angrily.

“What are you doing? Are you trying to force your way in? This is not a place where you can do whatever you want, leave immediately!”

Alex stood at the forefront of the crowd, his cold laughter echoing through the air. “If Neera refuses to treat Kyra today, then don't even think about chasing my people away!”

“Y-You're just being a bully!”

Vanessa was so upset that she was at a loss for a moment.

Kyra looked at the grand display, feeling extremely satisfied.

However, she feigned sincerity as she reached out to take Vanessa's hand. “Miss, please don't mind him. He's just overly worried about me. That's why he's acting like this. Can you please inform Ms. Garcia again to see me?”

Before Vanessa could respond, Zephyr, who had been lurking in the shadows, appeared before everyone.

He rebuked coldly, “Our young lady Ms. Garcia already said she doesn't want to see you. Can't you understand the human language?”

His expression remained stern, his striking features exuding an icy coldness, and his eyes bore into Alex with an intimidating intensity.

Despite his imposing presence, Alex raised an eyebrow, his haughty demeanor on full display as he asked, “And who might you be?”

Zephyr, unimpressed by the arrogance, chose not to respond with words but with actions instead.

He sprang into motion before Alex's men could react, swiftly incapacitating them.

The others, now realizing the unfolding danger, rushed to confront Zephyr.

The ensuing brawl grew increasingly chaotic, its loudness drawing Neera's attention, prompting her to rush out.

“Everyone, stop!”

Seeing the chaotic scene, her face suddenly darkened, and she raised her voice.

Zephyr naturally complied with her command. He withdrew his hand with a cold and stern face.

On the other side, Alex glanced at Neera and also signaled his men to stop.

Neera first made sure that Zephyr was not injured before she stepped forward.

“What is the meaning of this?”

She shot an icy glance at Alex, her anger tightly controlled, and then shifted her attention to Kyra, her tone devoid of warmth.

Kyra's complexion had paled, and she coughed a couple of times, portraying herself as frail and vulnerable.

She remained silent, and it was Alex, playing the part of a gentleman, who intervened to deescalate the situation on her behalf.

“Ms. Garcia, I hope you don't mind. I didn't intend to cause a scene, it was your people who made the first move.”

Neera scoffed, her tone sharp. “If you didn't plan to make a scene, why bring so many people? Do you think I'm stupid?”

Alex ignored her sarcasm and replied, “I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but we came here hoping you could help with a medical issue. Ms. Garcia, your medical skills are out of this world, surely you wouldn't stand by and let someone die.”

“Enough with the moral pressure,” she retorted, her displeasure evident, responding curtly and without courtesy. “My assistant has already communicated my stance. Firstly, I don't see patients without a prior appointment, and I currently lack the time. Secondly, given your current attitude, even if I were initially inclined, I'm no longer interested.”

As she spoke, she looked at Kyra coldly, not giving her any face.

At this moment, Kyra finally spoke up, looking somewhat aggrieved.

“Ms. Garcia, I'm willing to apologize about what happened just now, as long as you're willing to treat me. Right now, my condition is really bad. I have no choice but to trouble you. I hope you can help me out on Jean's behalf.”

Upon hearing this, Neera couldn't help but let out a snicker.

“Kyra, if you're going to put on an act, at least make it convincing. You apologize, yet you flaunt your support in front of me. Is this your idea of a sincere attitude? Are you sure this is how you ask for someone's help? Furthermore, you ask me to help you on behalf of Jean. I find it quite strange. Jean is my fiancé, he has absolutely no relation to you. What gives you the right to use him to curry favor?”

“I...”

Kyra was so taken aback that she couldn't utter a single word.

Neera would rather not waste time with her, coldly ordering her to leave.

“I can't treat your illness. Please leave now. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have men. If you cause any more trouble, I'll call the police!”

After saying that, she turned around and returned to the laboratory.

Zephyr stepped forward again, his face cold as he looked at Alex and Kyra, an aura of menace surrounding him.

“Leave immediately, or don't blame me for being rude.”

Kyra was thoroughly berated by Neera, leaving her seething with resentment.

Nevertheless, her goal had been achieved and she didn't want to linger any longer. With a pitiful look on her face, she tugged at Alex's sleeve.

“Alex, let's just go...”

With a stern face, Alex finally left with his subordinates.

After walking out, he sneered, “This Neera sure has a big temper!”

At this moment, Kyra looked like a completely different person. Her complexion was exceptionally normal, not at all like someone who was ill.

“It's normal.”

She said in a strange tone, “After all, she's no ordinary person. Haven't you heard her? She's Jean's fiancée.”

Those last words were practically squeezed out from between her teeth, carrying a trace of gritted resentment.

Fiancée? Do you really think that having those three children will make you go from rags to riches? Dream on!

She was afraid that Alex would notice something amiss, so she quickly returned to her normal self.

“But everything has been going smoothly with this plan so far, all that's left is to sit back and enjoy the show.”

Alex nodded. “Let's head back then.”

The farce was over quickly, and Neera didn't make a big deal out of it. After adjusting her mood, he quickly immersed herself back into her research.

However, an hour later, Vanessa suddenly walked in, her face anxious.

“Nancy, can you please see what's wrong with me? I seem to be having an allergic reaction...”
