The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1140 Only One Can Be Chosen

After greeting Neera, Robin gave a subtle look to a subordinate behind him.

The latter understood immediately, and together with the person next to him, they brought over a large and heavy mahogany chair. At a glance, one could see the prestige and status it represented.

“Ms. Garcia, please have a seat.”

Neera nodded and strolled over, sitting down with a composed demeanor.

Robin smiled warmly and said, “Ms. Garcia, I’m impressed by how accomplished you are at this young age. To be acquainted with such a prominent figure as the Lord of Phison and even becoming his savior is a great honor. With the debt he owes you, you will be able to solidify your position in Phison. Even under normal circumstances, this isn’t an easy task at all.”

The mere thought of not only having to serve her but also to show her respect made Baxter’s blood boil.

He couldn’t openly make things difficult, so he could only resort to sarcasm.

“Hasn’t he been missing for many years? In recent years, no one has seen him or heard any news about him. How could he suddenly appear at this critical moment? It’s too much of a coincidence. Who knows if it’s true or false!”

Shane calmly retorted, “You’re mistaken, Granduncle Baxter. Even without that person, Tiago’s status alone carries enough weight. Have you forgotten? He is the second-in-command at Lordsworth Estate. His position is on par with the vice president of the Bartitsu Guild. In fact, he even has the upper hand. He has never interfered in the affairs of the Bartitsu Guild before. The fact that he personally came today to support Neera should put all doubts to rest. Besides, Neera is the Gordon family’s head now. Her grand ascension to power is also a good thing for the Gordon family.”

Baxter was not convinced, his cold laughter echoing around. Not a single pleasant, word came out of his mouth.

and the Bartitsu Guild. The Gordon family should have been a faction aligned with the guild. However, we not only allowed the selection of our family head to be dictated by Lordsworth Estate but also let them enter District Fourteen unobstructed and effortlessly walk through the Gordon family’s door. What would the guild think when they find out? Ha, in my opinion, the Gordon family might just fail to win the election for
