The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 972

Chapter 972 Asking For Trouble 

Gale had also heard about this matter. 

Jones Group’s production of banned drugs in Essley was an illegal act, which naturally drew significant attention from the authorities. 

Hence, Gale quickly agreed, “Rest assured, I will arrange for someone to personally monitor the upcoming progress.” 

“Thank you for going through the trouble.” 

Gale chuckled. “It’s unnecessary to speak so formally between us. We’ve known each other for so long, yet you’ve never asked me for anything. Now that you finally have, I must do my best to help you out!” 

After hanging up the phone, Jean didn’t leave. Instead, he stayed at the company to handle the company affairs. 

In the afternoon, lan suddenly strode in. 

“Mr. Beauvort, something’s happened. There’s a bit of a situation at Jones Group.” 

Jean put down his coffee cup and looked up at his assistant. His eyes were dark and cold as he asked, “What’s going on?” 

“The tide of news has shifted somewhat. Half an hour ago, Jones Group released a statement asserting that the factories under its umbrella were merely researching prohibited drugs. They claimed they had not introduced them to the market. I’ve asked the police, and so far, they haven’t found any verifiable sales channels. As for those illegal drugs appearing on the market, there’s no evidence to prove they came from Jones Group.” 

At this point, his tone carried a hint of irritation. 

“In this way, Jones Group will be accused of secretly researching dangerous drugs at most, but it won’t constitute a concrete crime. Moreover, if they handle it well by guiding public opinion, they might even be praised for contributing to medical research! It’s simply outrageous!” 

After hearing everything, Jean narrowed his eyes, his long fingers unconsciously tapping lightly on 

the table. 

Naturally, prohibited drugs couldn’t be sold through legitimate channels. 

The only way to make huge profits without leaving any evidence for the police to find would be through the black market. 

Hence, the black market was inevitably linked to this matter. 

When he arrived at that thought, the man’s eyes grew increasingly somber. 

A cold laugh spilled from his lips. “They’re really asking for trouble!” 

Originally, he hadn’t planned on dealing with the black market here so soon. 

But now, he had changed his mind. 

Since Essley’s black market dared to get involved, there was no need for him to show mercy! 

Since Essley’s black market dared to get involved, there was no need for him to show mercy! 

In fact, this was a perfect opportunity, as cleaning up everything in one shot would certainly save him some trouble. 

At that moment, he ordered with a stern face, “Send all the evidence collected by Nightshade to Prince Gale. Once he sees it, he’ll know what to do.” 

Ian knew that Jean was serious this time. Snapping to attention, he set off immediately to carry out the task. 

That evening, just as Jean was about to finish work, he received a request to meet from Gale.
