The two of them could not keep their hands off each other throughout the entire ride. Upon reaching the researchinstitute, they got out of the car hand in hand and headed to see Gerald.
After spending some time together, Gerald had grown quite fond of Neera.
Upon seeing her, he tilted his head back and greeted warmly, “Neera, you're here! I've been a good boy these pastfew days. Do I get a reward?”
Neera gently patted his head and smiled as she pulled out a small packet of candy from her bag. novelbin
“Here, your favorite peach candy.”
A single packet of candy was enough to send Gerald into a state of excitement.
He said with heartfelt sincerity, “Thank you, Neera You're the best.”
After unwrapping the candy, he popped the sweet into his mouth, his face brimming with happiness.
In the past, his health was so poor that he wasn't even allowed to have small snacks like candy.
Given that he was currently receiving treatment and his health had improved significantly, his body was able toaccept more types of food.
“Are Penny and Sammy not here?” Gerald looked behind Neera and asked curiously after eating the candy.
Neera nodded and replied, “Yup, they are busy with something recently and won't be able to come for now.”
“I see...”
The little one seemed a bit disappointed. He turned his head and took a glance at the small box of toys under thebed and said, “I wanted to share my new toys with them.”
With a smile on her face, Neera coaxed, “They'll be back a few days later. I'll bring them over to play with youthen, okay?”
The little one had always trusted the woman wholeheartedly. His face beamed with delight once more as heobediently nodded, “Okay, I'll wait for them to come back!”
After that, Neera personally took him to treatment.
The little one was recovering very well, making the treatment much easier than before.
Half an hour later, Neera finally stepped out of the treatment room after watching Gerald fall asleep.
Peter and his wife were waiting outside. When they saw her, they expressed their gratitude once again.
Although they had thanked her numerous times, words were never enough to express their gratitude toward thewoman.
It could barely reflect even a tiny fraction of the appreciation they had in their hearts.
Neera knew what they were thinking and said gently, “Uncle Peter, Aunt Shana, there's really no need for suchformality. It's also my wish to see Ged get better.”
They sat down and chatted for a while before Neera headed to the research room to prepare the medicine whilePeter and his wife kept an eye on Gerald.
Jean accompanied Neera to the entrance of the research room and pinched her cheek lightly as he said, “You goahead with your work. Remember to take a break when you're tired. I'll come pick you up in the evening.”
“Okay.”
He watched her change into her lab coat before he turned around and left.
Upon reaching the main entrance, he saw Ian rushing over. Instantly, a look of disdain appeared on his face.
Ian approached the man with a helpless smile and said, “Mr. Beauvort, I have something important to report.”
Jean cast a cold glance at him and replied sparingly, “Shoot.”
“Nightshade has arrived and gotten rid of those people who were spying on ANXIN Group.”
Upon hearing these words, Jean replied emotionlessly, “Mm. Do a clean job.”
“Yup. It was done as you instructed.”
The two men continued speaking as they headed toward the company.
Meanwhile, Benny, the head of the black market in Essley, and Derek, the leader of W, had both arrived at Asher'sresidence.
The two big shots sat facing each other. Asher, who was sandwiched in the middle, took on the lesser role ofserving them coffee and making sure that they were comfortable.
Derek was holding a cigar in one hand and toying with a lighter in the other. He squinted as he exhaled a puff ofsmoke, exuding an imposing aura.
“Neera Garcia is indeed not a simple character. Not only is she the heir to ANXIN Group, but she's also thesuccessor of F.A Group. Recently, the high society has been abuzz with rumors about her. After that banquet,she's now the talk of the town and the most popular socialite. This is the first time I've seen someone's status riseso quickly. It's actually quite refreshing.”
When Benny heard that, he pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth and looked toward Asher.
“Didn't the Garcia family promise to give you half of ANXIN Group? Why aren't you doing anything about it?”
At the mention of that, Asher's eyes lit up with greed.
“That was indeed what Alfonso, that good-for-nothing, promised me. However, since Neera's value hadskyrocketed, my interest should be doubled as well,” he said.
Benny shot him a sidelong glance, knowing exactly what the man was scheming. “Are you planning to ask formore? Could it be that you now have your eye on F.A Group?”
