Female Novel
Chapter 781
Neera wasn't planning to waste her time on Alfonso anymore. However, the Garcia family would never stopcausing trouble for her. Since the folks had arrived, she must pay attention to avoid being backstabbed again.
"What's going on with Susan and Roxanne now?" she questioned Neil once she was back in the office.
Respectfully, Neil retorted, "The crime they committed wasn't a big deal after all. They were detained for a fewdays. They vanished after being freed."
Neil continued, "I apologize on this matter. It was my negligence that caused us to lose track of them." Heexpressed regret over the situation.
Neera wasn't intending to accuse him. She said, "You are forgiven. There are so many things going on at thecompany right now. You are bound to be busy. It's understandable that mistakes could happen."
"Should I send someone to look into this issue right now?"
Neera said while shaking her head, "Don't worry about it. Alfonso will undoubtedly take time to search for them.He will be too busy to cause any trouble here. It's perfect timing that they went missing."
Neera took her leave early after finishing her tasks. She stopped at a renowned shop halfway through to buy somepastries.
The triplets were overjoyed to see the cakes because they hadn't had any in a while. They shouted, "Thank you,Mommy!" and obediently ate the pastries.
Neera made Jean a cup of tea since he did not like sweets. They enjoy their tea time relaxingly.
Neera asked, since she suddenly recalled what happened earlier, "How was the Garcia Group before you left? Iwas told it had filed for bankruptcy. Have there been any updates since then?"
Jean did not care about the Garcia family; he had no clue about the latest of them. He asked while shaking hishead, "Where does this question come from all of a sudden?"
Neera stopped eating and started to state everything that the Garcia family had been doing since Jean wentabroad.
"After the Garcia Group filed for bankruptcy, Roxanne and Susan caused a scene in the ANXIN Groupheadquarters. Aunt Adriana was furious. She was being admitted to the hospital as a result. Nonetheless, AuntAdriana still made arrangements for Roxanne to live in the VIP ward."
"When I returned, I stopped paying for Roxanne's medical bills. I also kicked them out of the hospital. Theyproceeded to make a big fuss once again. I did not hold back this time; they were detained after my securitycontacted the police. They have been freed, and it is unknown where they are now."
"Today, Alfonso showed himself before me. He was asking for their whereabouts." novelbin
After hearing what was said, Jean frowned and cast a glance towards Ian. The latter responded instantly bysaying, "The Garcia Group is heavily in debt right now; it was impossible for Alfonso to act freely on his ownwill."
It matched my initial thought. Neera said, "How could he possibly get to the company?"
Ian pondered and said, "He must have used some illegal method. I will investigate this matter right away." Heimmediately contacted his subordinates to look into this matter.
The response came within an hour. Ian said, "Mr. Jean, Mrs. Beauvort, I am ready to report. Alfonso discoveredthe black market before leaving. He got a large sum of money through usurious loans. It temporarily filled thedebt gap. Additionally, he signed an indenture."
Neera scowled. "An indenture?"
Ian nodded and said, "It is an indenture between him and the black market. Mrs. Garcia’s and Mr. Garcia's liveswill be on the line if he doesn't settle the debt within three months. Furthermore, Alfonso will have all of hisorgans removed. He was being monitored and followed wherever he went."
Neera froze, and her face lit up in shock. She said, "I can’t believe what's going on now! How could he?"
Ian said, "Currently, Mrs. Garcia and Mr. Garcia are being held hostage by the black market."
Neera was furious. She had no idea that Alfonso would act in such a bizarre way. How could one even mortgagetheir own biological parents?
Neera could easily see through his plan. He was certain that Adriana would never ignore Marnie and Gladeon’slives once she learned the truth. He knew how kind-hearted Aunt Adriana was. She would pay any amount tosave their lives. This was his objective all along! I must protect Aunt Adriana. Her condition is just getting better;she wouldn’t be able to handle this news. Her condition may grow worse if she knows about this! Her entire bodytrembled as the enormous rage exploded in her heart.
Jean grasped her hand to calm Neera down. He said, "They aren’t worthy of you getting upset."
Jean pointed out his suspicion, saying, "Given the Garcia Group's debt predicament, the usury loan that Alfonso
borrowed must be an absurd number. Not to mention he can’t escape the high interest. He was borrowing fromthe black market; they don’t do charity. Alfonso’s, Mr. Garcia's, and Mrs. Garcia's lives are not valuable. I suspectthere is something fishy about this."
