The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 899 A Devastating Defeat

Neera sat down opposite Eugene, and started to negotiate with him.

“I haven’t seen you in so long, Mr. Grey, why have you become so unkind? We’re so familiar with each other, why can’t we talk about it nicely? Look, I’m back here for probably about a week or so, why don’t I offset all of the points that I owe, and maybe cook for you, three meals a day, how about that?”

“Is your food some kind of rare elixir? How can there be such a good thing, to offset your points by cooking a few meals? You’re trying to rip off the wrong man!”

Oh, he’s not buying her cooking now?

Was he really that stubborn?

Neera’s headache started to come back. She had no choice but to explain the true reason that she was here.

“I’m here to do some really important research! It involves the life of an important friend of mine! I’m really hoping that you can show some kindness and accommodate me this time… As a doctor, you can’t just leave someone to die right, Mr. Grey?”

Eugene was quite surprised to hear such words. He wanted to hear more about it.

“Even a famous doctor such as yourself can’t do anything about it, huh? Tell me, what is the problem?”

Since he’d asked about it already, Neera decided to just tell him.

“I have a friend, who had caught a case of the wugs. However, I’m not exactly sure what kind of wug it is, or how he caught it, or how to solve it…”

She didn’t hide anything about the matter.

The old man was very knowledgeable, and also had a mysterious background. He must know much more about wugs than herself.

As expected, Eugene was flabbergasted to hear such a thing.
