The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 952

Seeing that her symptoms had lessened significantly, Osbert breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he began acting with renewed enthusiasm.

Around ten o'clock that night, all those in the research center who had been infected with the allergy showed signs of improvement.

The gloom that had shrouded the research center for several days finally lifted slightly.

Eugene was a meticulous person. As such, while giving affirmation, he didn't forget to remind. “Even though the illness has eased, we must not let our guard down. This medicine may temporarily suppress your allergic symptoms, but it can't eradicate them completely. It's inevitable that they may recur.”

Neera was also worried about the hidden danger. Thus, she instructed all the caregivers always to be vigilant about the patient's condition. “If there are signs of a recurrence or any unusual symptoms appear, make sure to notify me immediately.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Later on, Neera returned to the lounge in her office and called her aunt, updating her aunt on the progress there.

Upon hearing that a remedy had been developed to alleviate the allergies, Adriana was almost moved to tears.

“That's good! That's good...” Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke somewhat incoherently. “Thank goodness you're all right. You little rascal nearly scared me to death. Thank goodness you're all right.”

Over those past few days, she had been constantly worried about Neera, hardly getting any good sleep. Her heart was filled with unease.

While listening to Adriana's voice, Neera felt both sorrow and warmth in her heart, with a hint of moisture in her eyes.

“I'm fine, Aunt Adriana. You don't need to worry about me. You should take care of your own health. I bet you haven't been resting well these past few days. That's not good, you know. You need to eat on time and get plenty of sleep, or else your health will deteriorate.” She spoke in a soothing voice. Then, with a smile, she teased, “Moreover, if you don't get enough sleep, your skin will suffer. Then, at your wedding, you won't become the most beautiful bride.”

Adriana finally burst into laughter, and her mood significantly improved. “You naughty girl...”

Chad also sighed in relief upon hearing that.

Over those past few days, he had been worried about Neera. At the same time, he had also been concerned about Adriana.

He was extremely worried seeing Adriana eat so little and sleep so little.

Fortunately, there was finally some good news.

After hanging up the phone, he seized the moment and quickly coaxed Adriana into the bedroom. “She'll be home soon and won't be happy to see you like this. Why don't you rest and regain your strength?”

Upon hearing that, Adriana agreed and finally managed to fall asleep peacefully.

Meanwhile, Jean also advised Neera to take a good rest.

Neera was more than willing to lie down peacefully. As she stared at the man by her bed, she felt her heart melting into a soft mess.

Over those past few days, Jean hadn't been sleeping much in order to keep her company. At most, he only caught a brief nap every once in a while.

Even the toughest person couldn't withstand such torment.

“Jean, you look quite worn out yourself. You should also go and rest. I'm feeling much better now. There's no need for you to keep me company,” said Neera.

Jean tucked her in. Not giving it a second thought, he flatly refused. “I won't go back. Wherever you are, that's where I'll be.”

Neera pursed her lips. “You're worried about me, but I'm also worried about you. Seeing you struggle like this, how can I bear it?”

Jean smiled. “You just relax and sleep. Once you're asleep, I'll sleep on the couch outside.”

Upon hearing that, Neera felt her heart aching unbearably.

The sofa wasn't spacious. If he lay there, his long legs would have nowhere to rest, and it would be uncomfortable.

Jean was nonchalant about it. “Don't worry about me. As long as you get better soon, it's all worth it.”

Neera was touched but his words. She turned to look at him for a long time before finally closing her eyes, reluctant to let the moment end.

Due to her exhaustion, she slept until the next day.

Only after the sun had risen did she wake up. Her first action was to check on the other infected individuals.

No one was experiencing any recurrence of the condition.

After she finished checking everyone, she was overjoyed.

Eugene also finally relaxed.

“It seems the snowleaf has taken effect. It would seem the snowleaf's capability to live in the extreme cold for all year round caused it to develop a strong ability to suppress Red Rash Powder.”

Neera nodded. “Although we haven't completely eliminated the allergen, at least we no longer have to worry about everyone being in constant danger.”

While that was true, if the allergy was not completely cured, it would remain a problem. It was something that constantly weighed on her mind.

Eugene said, “I have already informed all members of the alliance to help look for the seven-hundred-year-old snowleaf. If it can really be found, we will definitely hear about it. This matter cannot be rushed. We need to wait patiently.”

Neera naturally understood that principle.

Nearby, Jean overheard it but didn't respond. He sent a message to Tiago in silence, asking about the situation on the latter's end.
