Chapter 900

Daisy was quite surprised. “You’re not in a hurry to head to the library?”

Neera waved her hand. “Nah, I can still go there tomorrow. I’ve been on a boat for an entire day. My whole bodyis stiff and exhausted. And, it’s getting dark now, so I need to get some rest first.”

Daisy understood, cleared her table, took her bag and left with her.

The two of them did not go out, and chose to eat at home.

The Alliance had arranged accommodation for all of its members within its compound. It was some bungalowsarranged in a row.

Neera’s house was right next to Daisy’s.

After putting down her luggage, she went straight over to Daisy’s, and personally cooked a full meal of deliciousdishes.

Daisy had long missed her cooking. She stayed in the kitchen and wandered around her, lending a hand from timeto time.

When the dishes were served on the dining table, Daisy even took out the good wine.

“Come, sit! We sisters haven’t had a good meal together for a long while now!”

The two women were very happy. They sat down opposite each other, and clinked their wine glasses together.They then chatted happily and ate their food in a relaxed manner.

Daisy had spotted the ring on Neera’s finger earlier. She finally had time to ask her about it now.

“What’s with the ring? Are you married already?”

Neera looked at the ring on her finger, her gaze became soft.

“Not yet, but I’ve already agreed to the proposal. I have a fiancée now.”

Daisy was extremely happy to hear the news.

“Congratulations! I’ve never expected you to be engaged so soon! There are so many talents in our Alliance that’scourting you, but you’ve never even batted them an eye. You always gave a cold face to all those men, so Ithought that you weren’t one to marry. But unexpectedly, you fell for someone.”

Neera found it hilarious. “You’re exaggerating! I just haven’t found anyone that I loved back then.”

“Oh, that must mean that you really love your fiancée then?”

“Yeah, I really do…”

It was the first time that Daisy had heard her speak like this. It was just like she had just discovered a newcontinent.

“Looks like you’re really smitten and in love! I’m really curious what kind of guy won your heart.”

Thoughts of Jean then appeared in her mind, she couldn’t hold back from talking about how good he was.

“He’s handsome, has a good temperament, and he's also young and promising. In short, he’s great at everything. Ihave great taste after all!”

Daisy wanted to laugh. “Are you praising him, or are you praising yourself…”

The two of them hadn’t felt this relaxed in a long time. They chatted away happily with a few glasses of wine.

After their dinner that lasted for more than an hour, they went back to their respective rooms to rest up.

Back next door, she switched shoes when she saw a video call from Jean.

A bright smile flashed across her face as she walked over to the sofa and answered the call. novelbin

The man’s handsome face then appeared on her screen.

“Jean…”

She couldn’t resist calling his name, her tone soft and gentle.

Jean’s heart melted as he heard her voice. But he felt that something wasn’t quite right.

Taking a closer look, he then realized that his woman’s eyes were a little blurry and dazed, and immediatelyreacted: “Are you drunk?”

“Nah, I just had a few sips. I’m not drunk.”

Neera leaned sideways and laid on the sofa lazily while talking to him on video.

Jean felt a little concerned, thought about it, and asked. “Did you drink with a man?”

It’s not that he didn’t trust her, it’s just that she was out alone by herself and drinking. He was just worried.

Neera chuckled. “Are you being jealous again? Nah, it was a girl. She’s my best friend here.”

Jean finally felt relieved, and asked her. “How was today? Did everything go well?”

Neera began to complain.

“No, not really… You have no idea. I was bullied so badly today. The President is such a small-hearted coward!He took advantage of the situation and ripped me off! He wanted me to be responsible for the maintenance of theAlliance’s security for two years, for free! And also, he wanted me to complete an SSS-grade task! Only then willhe cancel the points that I owe. Even Grandpa Dirk won’t help me…”

On the other end of the call, Jean listened to her as she ranted away, his eyes grew soft like no other.

“Aww, baby. Don’t get upset now. When there comes an opportunity next time, I will help you seek justice foryou.”

Seeing his girlfriend frown, he comforted her softly.

He found it endearing that she would come to him to complain after getting bullied, and because of that, he couldgive her his support.

Neera looked at his smitten eyes through the screen, and felt that she almost melted into a puddle. She couldn’t

help but speak coquettishly.

“How are you so nice to me, I just left for a day, and I already miss you so much…”

Jean had a smile in his eyes, and his lips curled into a grin. “I miss you too.” He replied softly.

Seeing that she was in the living room, he coaxed her to lay down in the bedroom, and continued to chat with herfor over an hour.

When she was tired, he coaxed her to sleep again until he finally ended the call reluctantly…
