The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 989

“Neera was lost when she was very young and was luckily adopted by a couple in the countryside. However, that couple soon had their own children and began mistreating Neera. She endured a miserable life in the countryside, and just when she thought she would finally have a happy and carefree life after the Garcia family found her and brought her back, she was bullied by her wicked stepmother and stepsister, and she was looked down upon by Alfonso. She lived a life worse than when she was in the countryside!”

“How could this happen?”

Nadine couldn't hold back her tears, finding it unimaginable to live through such a life.

Edward was also deeply disturbed, clenching his teeth, and each word he spoke felt like he was tormenting his own heart.

“Neera suffered so much in that Garcia family, and her stepsister, Roxanne Garcia, is no better. She conspired with her fiancé to plot against Neera, tarnishing her reputation and making her the laughingstock of the entire Kingsview. When Alfonso saw that she was of no use, he used this incident as an excuse to kick her out! Neera had no choice but to return to her rural home, but she wasn't accepted there either. If it weren't for her aunt, a compassionate person who treated her like her own daughter and brought her overseas, we wouldn't be able to see her now.”

Elmer's breathing became heavier, and he was on the verge of exploding in anger.

“That Alfonso, he's an animal! He's inhumane! Find out where he is right now, I must make him pay with his life!!”

Jeremiah was equally furious, wishing he could tear Alfonso to pieces with his own hands.

“Hurry and investigate. None of the three from the Garcia family should be spared! They must pay a hundredfold for their actions!”

Edward nodded in agreement, and Nadine's tears continued to flow out of sheer heartache.

“We must bring Neera back. That child has suffered so much, and her current life must be difficult,” Elmer insisted.

However, Edward chimed in, “Actually, that's not the case. Neera is doing very well now.”

Elmer immediately asked, “How do you know?”

Edward quickly shared the information he had found, including the recent news that had made headlines both domestically and internationally.

“In short, Neera has become a renowned medical expert, and her aunt has treated her like her own daughter all along. ANXIN Group has already designated her as the successor, and her boyfriend's company, F.A Group, one of the global top ten, has also announced her as the heir apparent. From any perspective, she is now an elite and influential figure, and no one can bully her anymore.”

Upon hearing how successful Neera had become, the family was both surprised and delighted.

They felt proud of her, but the sadness they felt for her was beyond words.

Despite the hardships she had endured in the past, she had transformed into an exceptional person.

Elmer clenched his teeth and said, “Even if she faced adversity and was dragged through the mud, she never belittled herself. Well done! She truly lives up to being a member of our Park family. Jeremiah, Edward, find a suitable time to bring Neera back and let her reconnect with her roots. From now on, the Park family will be her strongest support. Anyone who dares to harm her will be our enemy!”

Jeremiah and Edward agreed with Elmer's sentiment and nodded in agreement.

Just as they were discussing, Marnie rushed out of the room in a state of anxiety.

“Where's my baby girl? Has my baby girl come back?” she urgently asked.

The family exchanged glances and decided to comfort her with a lie.

“Mom, your baby girl is working late tonight and can't come back,” Jeremiah replied.

Upon hearing this, Marnie started crying like a child.

“No, you must be lying. Did my baby girl leave? Is she refusing to acknowledge me as her mother? Is she never coming back again?”

The family felt a pang of sadness, considering the news they had just received.

Edward, seeing his grandmother becoming more agitated, tried to find a compromise.

“Grandma, Aunt Stacy is really working late, and she can't come back right now. But if you want to see her, I can help you make a video call with her.”

Marnie's eyes lit up at the thought of seeing Neera. She looked at Edward with hope in her eyes and asked, “Really? Can I see my baby girl?”

Edward nodded and immediately called Neera.

She had just finished taking a shower when her phone rang.

It was an unknown caller, but she soon realized it was Edward, the person she had met earlier in the day.

“Oh, it's you. What's going on?” she asked.

Edward quietly explained the situation on his end, apologizing for the inconvenience.

“I'm really sorry to bother you again. Is now a good time for you?”

Neera could indeed hear Marnie calling for her baby girl in the background.

Neera readily agreed, “Sure, let's connect on WhatsApp. You can find me with this phone number.”

Edward thanked her profusely, and they exchanged contact information.

Within moments, they were on a video call.

On the screen, Neera saw Marnie's face, the same person she had met earlier in the day, and she smiled.

“You really are a troublemaker. We agreed that you would rest at home, so why do you seem so anxious? I do have work to do...”

On the other end, Marnie was overjoyed to see Neera on the screen, as if she had found a precious treasure.

Nadine and Elmer couldn't contain their emotions and moved closer to watch.

Seeing the face that so closely resembled Stacy's, both of them became teary-eyed.
