Chapter 1009 Music To My Ears

“Your aunt is a kind person. We are truly grateful for how well she treats you.”

Nadine gently brushed away the stray hairs from her temples while speaking in a tender tone.

At the mention of Adriana, a faint smile surfaced in Neera’s eyes.

“Yes, Aunt Adriana is the person I’m closest to in this world.”

When she said that, she didn’t give it much thought, nor did she have any other intentions.

However, as soon as the words left her mouth, she could feel the atmosphere around her becoming somewhat tense.

Despite their attempts at concealing their emotions, the Park family members were visibly hurt and disappointed.

Neera suddenly realized that what he just said might have led to some misunderstandings.

She opened her mouth, wanting to make amends, but at that moment, her phone rang. It was a call from Isabella’s assistant.

“Ms. Garcia, something terrible has happened! It’s really bad.”

On the phone, the girl’s voice was filled with anxiety, as if she was on the verge of tears.

Neera’s heart tightened, while her expression changed instantly. “What’s going on? Calm down and tell me about it.”

I tried to dissuade her, telling her it wasn’t safe to go alone, but she insisted that the best approach was to confront that person, just in case he was planning to flee. And then… she left for a long time and didn’t come back! I waited and waited, but there was no sign of her. When I tried to call her, I just couldn’t get through…”

Neera frowned. “Where does that person live?”

director had been to see him. Instead, he insisted that he hadn’t seen Director Lopez today. At first, I didn’t suspect him, thinking that Director Lopez must have had some urgent matter to attend to, and that was why she didn’t return. But just as I was about to leave, I spotted Director Lopez’s mobile phone under his coffee table. After I exposed him, I threatened to call the police. Only then did he tell the
