Chapter 1406

Just as Neera was worrying about how to investigate without arousing the suspicion of Bartitsu Guild, an unexpected encounter caught her attention.

That day she and Zephyr were on their way to Finnley’s fighting arts center when they passed by a

restaurant.

She caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of her eye. Greatly surprised, she quickly called out to Zephyr, “Stop the car.”

Zephyr reacted quickly, immediately slamming on the brakes.

“Ms. Garcia, what’s wrong?” he asked, turning around with a puzzled look.

Neera leaned to the side, without lowering the car window. She looked outside and pointed in the direction of the restaurant.

“Look at that person. Doesn’t he resemble the third elder of the Cox family?”

With a piercing gaze, Zephyr immediately recognized the man.

“Yes, that’s him. Why is he here?”

Neera was also puzzled, “Didn’t the Cox family already move to Lordsworth Estate? Why did he suddenly come back?”

At that moment, Albert didn’t notice them. He was busy engaging in lively conversation with the man beside him. After a while, he watched as the man got into a car and drove away. Then, he too got into a

car.

After watching Albert’s car drive away, Neera took one last glance at the restaurant across the street, then turned around to ask, “Do you know who that man he was just talking to is?”

Zephyr shook his head. “I haven’t seen him before, but he doesn’t seem to be from the Cox family.”

Neera hummed in acknowledgment. Recalling Albert’s obsequious behavior earlier, she decided to be more cautious.

“Go and find out who the man that Albert met today is and what is the purpose of their meeting.”

“Yes, Ms. Garcia.”
