Neera had finally managed to calm the elderly woman down through the video call and ended it.
At that moment, Jean walked in, holding a glass of milk which he handed to her. “Who were you talking to just now?” he inquired.
Taking the glass, Neera gulped down the milk and wiped her mouth contentedly before briefly recounting the events of the day.
As Jean listened, a furrow creased his brow.
He was unaware of this particular incident. “Could there be any issues with it?” he asked.
Neera smiled and shrugged, not overly concerned. “Not really, just an elderly lady who mistook me for someone else due to her illness. A little reassurance was all that was needed.”
Jean reluctantly put his worries aside.
“By the way, there's something I'd like to discuss with you. Can I borrow Zephyr for a while? I'll arrange for additional security to protect you discreetly.”
Curiosity piqued, Neera asked, “What's going on?”
Jean didn't hold back and gave her the full details.
“I want Zephyr to help deal with the people from the black market. With him on our side, things should go more smoothly.”
Neera, still not quite grasping the specifics, decided to seek clarification.
“Just tell me directly. I've had a gun pointed at me; there's nothing I can't handle.”
Jean took her hand, gently massaging it in his palm.
“We need to deal with Asher's headquarters. He's returned to the country in secret, and we're not sure of his whereabouts. I've sent Ian to gather information. The black market in the country is in chaos, and it won't be easy to break through. Bringing Zephyr along will provide an extra layer of security. Previously, Asher and Alfonso were working together, trying to take over ANXIN Group. They even had their sights set on F.A Group, one of the global top ten companies. During the time you were away at the World Medical Alliance, they had planted agents within ANXIN Group. If you had been present, who knows what might have happened? Since Asher dared to target you, he can't blame me for being ruthless.”
As he concluded, his tone remained cold, devoid of any warmth.
Neera, unaware of all these developments, couldn't help but complain a bit.
“This Alfonso always seems to bring trouble my way! Even when he's in prison, he manages to cause problems. Unbelievable!”
Jean gently stroked her forehead, reassuring her. “Don't worry. I'll take care of this for you. Everything will be fine. Just focus on your work, and don't worry about anything else.”
Neera nodded and snuggled in his embrace, feeling a bit down.
“I thought coming back to the country would bring some peace, but it seems like there's still so much trouble lurking.”
Thinking about the Jones family, she asked, “What's the situation with them now?”
Jean's gaze turned disdainful. “Right now, the entire Jones family is in deep trouble, and they're desperately trying to extricate themselves.”
He didn't go into the specifics of the situation, and Neera didn't press further.
Instead, she shifted the conversation to the Marks family.
“These past few days, Beauvort Group and Marks Group have severed all cooperation and contact. There's a lot of buzz about it in the country, with various speculations. Will this have any impact on Beauvort Group?”
Jean shook his head, brimming with confidence.
“No, it won't. Kyra damaged the company's reputation and credibility first, so the company has the right to sue her and even claim compensation. As for terminating all cooperation with Marks Group, it does involve some losses, but it's within an acceptable range. The mighty Beauvort Group won't be shaken by a mere Marks Group.”
Neera nodded, wholeheartedly trusting his words.
She knew that this man was doing all of this for her, and her heart was filled with sweetness and warmth.
“Mr. Beauvort, you've been working hard,” she said with a playful smile before leaning in to give him a kiss.
Jean quickly caught on and took control, deepening the kiss.
As he savored her sweetness and fragrance, he felt content, believing that everything he did for her was worthwhile.
Later in the evening, they talked for a while longer before he gently lulled his lady in his arms to sleep.
When she was sound asleep, he planted a delicate kiss on her forehead before leaving, feeling completely satisfied.
