The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1523 Unwise To Stay

Neera shook her head without hesitation.

“Of course not. Lordsworth Estate has always given me a straightforward impression. While they may use tactics, they would never actively harm people. This incident is unlikely to be orchestrated by Lordsworth Estate.”

Jean smiled slightly upon hearing her words.

However, his smile soon began to fade.

Since this matter involved Lordsworth Estate, he had to send someone to investigate.

That morning, he called Colin and instructed him to find out what was going on.

At the same time, Caleb called Neera, informing her of a highly valuable auction of medicinal materials at the Meyer family’s auction house that evening.

Neera was quite intrigued, but due to the current tense atmosphere outside, she felt an inexplicable worry and didn’t dare to venture out.

Seemingly unfazed, Caleb suggested, “Don’t worry. Don’t you have a knight in shining armor by your side? What’s there to be afraid of? Let Mr. Beauvort accompany you.”

Hearing the words, “knight in shining armor,” Neera blushed slightly.

After ending the call, she asked Jean, “Do you have any plans for tonight?”

Seeing her trying to please him, Jean smiled.

“What’s the matter?”

“There’s an auction at the Medicina family tonight, where they’ll be auctioning off some extremely valuable medicinal materials. Mr. Yao called me specifically to inform me about it. It seems these are medicinal materials that are quite hard to come by in the market. I’m thinking of going over to take a look, and if there’s anything suitable, I’ll bid for it. Although your health has improved significantly, you still need to recuperate. Once I’ve sorted things out here, I plan to prepare a few more drugs for you to further strengthen your body.”

Pleased that she was considering him, Jean lifted her chin up with his finger and responded, “Why ask me? Where you go, I go. There’s no need to consider. Anything that involves you is the most important.”
