Female Novel
Chapter 618
In the afternoon, Neera worked tirelessly in the laboratory without paying attention to what was happeningonline. It was already evening by the time she finished her work.
Osbert felt something had been wrong since lunchtime. When everything was settled, he immediately took out hisphone. He had not even changed his clothes yet.
Osbert stared at the phone screen and excitedly exclaimed, "Neera! Come and look at this!"
Neera was confused and asked, "What's going on?"
Osbert showed Neera his phone and said, "The system of this website has crashed!"
Neera took a glance and frowned in surprise. The timing of a system crash seemed too coincidental.
Neera couldn't help but smile. Then she said, "Well, this works for me. I'm happy for some peace and quiet."
Luigi, who was looking at the phone, said, "It’s useless for one website not to be working. There are stilldiscussions happening on other platforms."
Neera felt annoyed and removed her lab coat. Then she picked up the phone and said, "Let them say whateverthey want. It's late now. I'm going to buy a gift. You all should go back and rest. Goodbye."
With that, she shook her phone and left.
Osbert whispered, "How come Neera could deal with it so calmly? I’m so worried about this matter; is everythinggoing to be fine?"
Then, Osbert turned around and looked at Luigi.
Luigi patted his shoulder and said, "Trust Nancy; I always feel as if she has something planned..."
...
Neera went to a nearby department store and shipped it around. After careful selection, she finally picked out awatch. The price was somehow expensive, but Jean would love this watch.
Neera looked at the price and said without any expression, "I’ll take this."
The worker immediately helped her pack the watch.
Neera pondered for a while. I feel like the worker is looking at me in a strange way. Hold on, I had already shownmy face on the internet before, and there has been a lot of news about me recently; she must have recognized whoI am.
Neera seemed unbothered and went straight back.
When Neera arrived at Imperial Gardens, it was already past 9 o'clock. Instead of entering her own home, shewent to Jean’s home.
Richard opened the door and said, "Mrs. Beauvort, welcome back."
Neera smiled and said, "Good evening, Richard."
Neera entered the living room and did not see Jean anywhere. She glanced upstairs and asked, "Is Jean at home?"
Richard smiled and said, "Yes, he is. Mr. Jean has been busy in his room."
Neera nodded and said, "I'll go up then."
Richard noticed the bag she was carrying and the fine packaging. Then he smiled mysteriously.
Soon, Neera stood outside Jean’s room and lightly knocked twice.
"Come in," Jean said without looking up from his work.
Neera quietly pushed open the door and peeked inside. Jean was busy reading documents and had his laptop openon the desk. Jean was meeting online with a group of C-level from the company's foreign branches.
Neera did not notice, assumed he was only working with documents, and decided to walk in. Then she lightlycoughed when she reached Jean.
"You're still working? Do you need a break?"
Jean was somewhat surprised as he looked up from his work and saw Neera.
Jean glanced at the screen and said coldly, "What’s the matter?"
The various c-level from the foreign branches were stunned. They had just heard something. It is a woman'svoice! At this late hour, a woman was in Mr. Beauvort's room. Who was she? What was her relationship with Mr.Beauvort?
Everyone was incredibly curious and listened carefully.
Neera did not realize Jean was in a meeting. She only noticed that Jean was still angry.
Neera casually asked, "Have you eaten? If not, I'll make you something to eat."
Jean remained silent and pretended to be busy.
Neera felt frightened when she saw Jean’s reaction. I must do something. I don’t want to argue with him anymore.
"Are you still angry? It’s been a day. Haven’t you gotten over it yet? You're not in good health; you shouldn't stayangry for too long. It'll only make your condition worse. So... I came here to cheer you up."
Neera continued to say, "Look, I brought you a gift! I went to pick this out, especially for you!" As she spoke, shetook out an exquisitely wrapped box and placed it before Jean.
Jean was not angry anymore. However, he still replied coldly, "Do you think I'm someone who is lacking in gifts?Don't think a gift can easily win me over." novelbin
"You're really this angry..." Neera took a long sigh and said, "Still not willing? It took a lot of effort for me tochoose this watch. It perfectly matches your style. I can't wear a men's watch if you don't want it. I'd have to giveit to someone else. Would you be happy if another man received my gift? So please reluctantly accept it, okay? Ipromise that I won't make you angry again next time."
