The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 575 I’ll Personally Explain To Her
lan’s heart sank as he gazed at the villa’s doorway.
Oh, no! I’ve made a terrible mistake! By the looks of Ms. Garcia’s face, she’s livid!
Panic overtook him, and he paced back and forth in the living room like a cat on the hot tin roof.
Why did I pry so much and ask so many questions? I’m shooting myself in the foot if Ms. Garcia takes out her anger on Mr. Beauvort due to my inquisitiveness!
After a sleepless night, upon seeing Jean the next morning, lan immediately owned up to his mistake and sought forgiveness.
“Sir, I was too nosy last night. I asked many questions, and I believe I may have angered Ms. Garcia.”
Jean took a sip of warm water to moisten his throat. He looked at him coldly while listening intently.
“What did she say when she left last night?”
lan wore a bitter expression and explained, “She realized I was probing her. So she asked me what was going on. I couldn’t handle the pressure, so I confessed, and then…”
He braced himself and cast a glance at Jean, looking utterly guilty.
“I was just curious about her relationship with that man, so I asked again. I guess she suspects you didn’t trust her. I’m sorry for causing you trouble.”
Jean shot a cold glance at him and said nothing.
After a brief silence, he got dressed and went to the next door.
However, Neera was not home, but Auntie Zuniga politely invited him in.

“Mr. Beauvort, you’re awake. Ms. Garcia left early in the morning, but she left some medicine for you. Initially, she wanted me to send it over, but I’ve been busy. Since you have dropped by, you can bring it back home. She had written the instructions on the card.”
Jean took the card. He knitted his brows tighter when he looked at the delicate handwriting on the card.
Neera had left the house early. She picked up the three and drove them to the research institute.
Upon arrival, Thora started to criticize the facility.
“This research institute is so small, isn’t it? How can we work in such a small space? The equipment is incomplete/too. What can we do with these? This place is too shabby; have you spent all the money on the company?”
Neera looked up. Her face was devoid of a smile.
She retorted sharply, “If you don’t like it, you can leave now. I won’t tolerate this attitude of yours!”
She was in a bad mood today; therefore, her tone was particularly harsh.
Thora’s complexion changed. She wanted to retort, but Neera cut her off.
“You should know your place. You’re here to help, not to be a princess. If you keep picking on everything, I’ll personally put you in a car and send you back on a plane without informing your father.”
The atmosphere became tense.
Thora’s expression darkened, but she could tell that Neera had been repressing her rage.
“Why are you so proud of yourselves?” She muttered under her breath and walked away.
Later, Neera gathered all the available team members and held a meeting.
During the meeting, she analyzed the previous failure data from Obadiah’s research and set up a new research plan with some adjustments.
By noon, everyone was starving.
She finally realized how much time had passed. She urged, “Let’s take a break for lunch. Our discussion resumes at 2 p.m.”
Osbert finally had a moment. He expressed his concern over lunch, “Neera, what’s wrong? Are you upset? Tell me what happened, and I’ll help!”
Neera didn’t want to be so transparent and not wanting to talk about her feelings.
She just shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. I just didn’t sleep well. Eat now and rest a little.”
Osbert didn’t push further. He chatted casually with her for a while.
In the afternoon, another long meeting ensued.
As usual, Neera was so engrossed in the research that she forgot to eat or sleep.
She was serious with her task. She led the team, and the discussion went on until 10 p.m. However, they did
not reach any conclusions.
