The two immediately asked curiously, “Nancy, who is this?”
Jean didn't wait for Neera to speak. He calmly started to introduce himself, “Mr. Grey, Ms. Daisy, hello. My name is Jean Beauvort. I am Neera's fiancé.”
Fiancé? Upon hearing that, both Eugene and Daisy were taken aback, then quickly came to a realization.
“So it's you...”
Eugene sized up the man before him, his gaze intense as if trying to penetrate the protective mask, filled with scrutiny.
Daisy was also very curious.
Regrettably, there was nothing to see.
Judging from certain aspects, she reckoned that man must be quite handsome and rather tall.
When the three of them exchanged glances, Neera couldn't help but be surprised to discern the significance in Eugene's words. “Mr. Grey, the way you speak, it sounds like you know Jean. Have you met before?”
Eugene glanced at her, then flicked his gaze toward Jean. “You tell her.”
With a gentle voice, Jean explained, “Last night, I took your phone and made a call to Mr. Grey.”
Neera was momentarily stunned, then quickly wrapped her mind around the situation. No wonder Mr. Grey is here, but why would he do such a thing?
Facing Neera's surprised gaze, Jean didn't explain outright. Instead, he kept her in suspense. “I have my reasons. You don't need to worry about it for now. Go on with your tasks. Weren't you going to check on the medicinal materials and prepare the medicine?”
Neera was puzzled, but she didn't ask any further. She nodded and called Daisy to help.
Needless to say, Daisy complied and held Neera's arm through the protective suit. She finally had time to care for the latter. “Are you feeling okay for now? Can you hold up? If not, go ahead and rest first. I'll handle the task with your team members.”
Neera smiled and said, “I'm fine. I had a good night's sleep, and I'm feeling much more energetic today.”
After the two of them entered, Jean withdrew his gaze from her, turning toward Eugene. “Mr. Grey, thank you for making the effort to travel here overnight by boat. Please, have a seat.”
Eugene scrutinized him with his sharp eyes. Seeing his distinguished demeanor and courteous behavior, he said nothing.
He took a seat and got straight to the point. “Regarding what you mentioned on the phone last night, I've given it some serious thought. Since we're meeting today, I'll just say it outright. I can vouch for you in the name of the alliance, but the prerequisite is there must be evidence! I trust Neera's character, but the outside world may not necessarily share my belief. Moreover, the alliance has its own rules, so I can't make an exception to defend her. Of course, if this matter were indeed false, the alliance would never stand by and watch its own members suffer even the slightest slander and defamation!”
Last night, Jean took the initiative to call him, hoping that he could issue a clarification statement on behalf of the World Medical Alliance for Neera.
In fact, they only had a brief exchange, but Eugene felt he was already being persuaded by Jean.
He deliberately kept Jean in suspense afterward.
At that moment, seeing Jean's calm and composed demeanor, he couldn't help but become even more curious. How does this man, who manages to attract the attention of a proud girl like Neera, look like?
Upon hearing his words, Jean genuinely breathed a sigh of relief.
“Mr. Grey, I understand everything you've said, so I won't ask you to make an exception for this. As for the evidence, rest assured. I've had it almost prepared. It will be compiled into a document and sent to you shortly.”
Eugene nodded, then didn't say much more. “In that case, I won't keep you any longer. I'll go see if there's anything I can help with.”
“Of course.”
Jean didn't stop him. He then stood up and personally led the way for Eugene.
Eugene quickly went to the laboratory.
He came in such a rush earlier, so he didn't even have time to check on Neera's allergies.
He hadn't even seen the prescription, which had consumed so many precious herbs, so his heart was already filled with anxiety.
Therefore, as soon as he entered, he asked for the prescription from Neera.
Neera found it amusing and directly showed him the formula.
Eugene first carefully perused it, then observed Neera's arm. Subsequently, he let out a sigh. “This Red Rash Powder is quite intriguing. It's surprisingly potent. However, this prescription is even more impressive! It is truly worthy of an ancient prescription!”
