The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1430

Robin knitted his brows, giving him a sidelong glance. “Can you stop making a fuss every time something happens? When will you ever change this temper of yours?”

Baxter sneered, “As long as the Gordon family doesn’t return to its rightful hands, I won’t have a moment’s peace!”

Neera closed her eyes, unable to suppress the rage burning within her chest any longer. It scorched her, making her body feel hot all over, her blood boiling in her veins.

A few seconds later, she opened her eyes. Her beautiful pupils were chillingly cold, and her delicate features were veiled with a layer of frost.

Her gaze was fixed intently on Baxter, sharp and piercing. She began to speak slowly, her tone even, yet carrying an oppressive force that brooked no argument. “Based on the fact that I am the head of the Gordon family, the district president, I have the right to send whoever I want. Who do you think you are? Do you think you have the right to question my decisions here? What makes you think you have the right to disagree? Consider your own status. You’re not even the head of the Gordon family yet. If you want to overrule me, wait until you take my position. Only by then you can make a fuss!”

In just a few words, her entire demeanor had changed. She became assertive and proud, and her eyes held a cold indifference that seemed to look down on everything.

yet the corners of his mouth suddenly lifted slightly. However, there wasn’t a trace of amusement in his eyes. Instead, they reflected a hint of mockery and ridicule. “For those who reason, I can treat them with respect and measured words. But for those who are unreasonable, foolish, and ignorant, to reason with them is a waste of time and breath. Mr. Baxter, even if you’re dissatisfied, you’ll have to hold it in. If you still feel wronged or resentful, then don’t go.
