The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1461

Hearing him say this, Chad and the others were somewhat surprised.

“Jean, are you implying you’ve got some sort of leverage on them?”

Jean just smiled without saying a word.

Seeing his confident demeanor, Chad immediately understood. “Don’t tell me it’s those people you caught at the border…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Shane understood. “So that’s how it is. No wonder you insisted on capturing a group of them alive back then.”

Once everything was settled, Adriana urged Neera to go upstairs and rest.

Neera still had something on her mind. After returning to her room, she rummaged through her bedside table, then headed to Zephyr’s room.

Zephyr had heard her return quite some time ago, but due to his guilt and self-reproach, he had not gone downstairs. He didn’t know how he could face her again.

Upon hearing the knock at the door, his heart tightened. Feeling flustered, he nearly tumbled off the bed.

Neera stood outside the door. She heard some movement inside but no one calling out for her to enter, which left her somewhat puzzled. Hence, she knocked on the door again.

“Zephyr, are you there? May I come in?”

Inside, Zephyr hastily steadied himself. After moving his lips a little, he finally spoke. “Please come in, Ms. Garcia.”

Upon getting a response, Neera opened the door.

When she entered, she saw Zephyr standing upright, his head slightly lowered. He glanced at her briefly, then quickly lowered his gaze again.

“You’ve returned, Ms. Garcia…”

As soon as he woke up, he heard that Neera had been rescued, and he also knew that she had been seriously injured.
