The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1420

Every time he thought of the injustices she had suffered in the past and the hardships she had once endured, Jean’s heart felt as if it was being sliced by a knife.

The pain was so intense that he could barely breathe.

And the thought of those greedy foster parents ignited a surge of anger from deep within his heart.

“This amount of money is more than enough for a rural family. How could they have the nerve to ask you for medical expenses?”

Neera flashed him a wry smile, tinged with a touch of helplessness.

“My foster father, though poor, had an extraordinary love for gambling. Most of the money was lost to his gambling, and what was left was used to furnish the house. Now, their life is just ordinary, but such a life is definitely not satisfying for them. People’s desires are insatiable. Knowing my current situation, they naturally wouldn’t want to give up on me.”

She then flashed him a confident smile and playfully tousled the man’s hair as she continued, “But rest assured, I won’t let them take advantage of me for no reason. I have my own ways to deal with them.”

Jean naturally knew that she was clever and capable of finding solutions. Yet, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.

“If you don’t want to deal with them, I can help you sort it out,” he suggested after a moment’s hesitation.

Neera smiled. “Don’t worry; I’m fine.”

Early the next morning, Neera received the hospital bill.

Seeing the long list of medical tests and the extremely expensive medication bill, Neera could only respond with a sneer.

She found the couple’s behavior utterly disgraceful, but she had grown accustomed to it, so she didn’t take it to heart.

No matter how they choose to act out, she wouldn’t care.

That day, after finishing the design draft, Neera sent it to Levi, asking him to help find the best raw gemstone, stating that he could accept it regardless of the price.

Levi gladly agreed.
