The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1256

In the days that followed, Avery did not visit the Gordon residence again.

Neera was unsure if he had given up. She felt relieved, yet troubled at the same time. Even if we don’t meet now, the Bartitsu Guild will still hold the Council of Elders. We’ll have to meet then. Will it be awkward?

A week later, the Bartitsu Guild convened its scheduled Council of Elders as planned.

The meeting took place in a branch of the Bartitsu Guild, which was a quaint old mansion.

Since it was a meeting of the elders, unrelated individuals were not allowed to attend. Therefore, Neera went alone with Avery.

Neera nodded. “I understand.”
