The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 475

Chapter 475 You’re So Caring, Mr Beauvort
After she hung up, Neera quickly left the office and headed home.
When she arrived at the Imperial Gardens, Jean was playing chess with Fabio.
Jean was the first to greet her. “You’re home.”
Neera nodded.
“Nice to see you again, Neera!” Fabio said.
“Likewise,” Neera smiled and replied. Didn’t you call me “Ms. Garcia” last time? I didn’t know we’d become closer. She thought.
Jean did not comment on that. He asked, “Why did you go to your office instead of resting at home? Was there something urgent?”

Neera shook her head. “No. I was bored at home, so I went there to catch up on work.
As she said that, her eyes fell on the chessboard.
Fabio’s pieces were cornered, and Jean looked like he was going to win soon.
“Why don’t you finish your game before I try on the gown?” she said.
Fabio assessed the board before saying decisively, “Nah, I’m done. The gown is more important. If it doesn’t fit, I can alter it immediately.”
lan chuckled. “Where’s your sportsmanship, Mr. Lopez? You can’t abandon the game when you see you’re going to lose!”
Fabio wasn’t annoyed when he was called out like that. He smiled and said, “This is called a strategic retreat! Anyway, it’s just a game. Why so serious?”
Jean shot a glance at him. “It’s only a strategic retreat when you still have a chance to make a comeback. Yours should be called a cowardly retreat!”
Fabio chuckled sheepishly. “It’s better than suffering defeat! But hey, can’t you go easy on me? Would it kill you to let me win just once?”
“Yes, it would. In fact, I enjoy tormenting you. Here’s a word of advice. Get good,” Jean said and moved a chess piece.
The game was as good as over.
Fabio groaned in frustration. If only he had run away sooner!
Neera could not help but chuckle. She was surprised to see that side of Jean’s personality.
Nettie, Fabio’s assistant, was already laughing as well.
