Chapter 958
Upon hearing this, Jean's expression slightly darkened, and the atmosphere around him became somewhatoppressive.
“Do you know the flight details?” he asked.
Ian shook his head. “I don't know. I can only estimate the general time, but I'm still not sure about the specificroute.”
Jean's long, narrow eyes slightly squinted, he calmly said, “We are in the dark now, and Asher is in the light. Heshould be aware that he's being watched, so there's a high probability that he won't dare to take a direct flight toKingsview. He's likely to take a detour.”
Ian pondered over his words for a moment, then nodded. “Indeed, there's a high probability of that.”
Soon, Jean gave an order. “Find a way to notify Storm as soon as possible. Have him thoroughly investigate thismatter. If possible, make Asher stay in the country for good this time!”
Ian nodded in agreement.
That Asher guy has shown up again, he's nothing but trouble. No matter what, we can't let him wreak havoc thistime.
At this moment, Asher, who was flying back home, was in a state of shock and anger.
He never imagined that his base would be taken over by someone else just because he left for a short while!
Judging from the reports from my subordinates, it's highly likely that the police have made their move.
However, there was one thing he couldn't understand.
How could the police possibly figure out all his business locations at once?
On the plane, Asher was filled with anger, his heart unsettled and in turmoil.
This loss was no small matter. Given the magnitude of the situation, once the higher-ups found out, they werebound to be furious.
Moreover, what worried him the most was that if things didn't go well, he might end up getting caught too!
When the time comes, if those in power sacrifice a pawn to save the king, and don't get me out, wouldn't my lifebe over?
He scratched his head in irritation, then turned to his subordinate and asked, “Everything is arranged for after weland, right?”
His subordinate replied, “Everything is all set, Asher. Rest assured, we won't let you be exposed to any danger.”
Asher nodded slightly, then leaned back into his chair again.
Neera slept until four in the afternoon.
The moment she opened her eyes, she was greeted by the brightness, and instinctively squinted in response.
After a moment, a familiar silhouette appeared before her eyes once she had adjusted.
It was Jean.
At this moment, the man was sitting by her bed, half of his face shrouded in shadow.
“Awake?”
His gentle voice rang out, reaching out to shield her from the glaring light.
Neera's sleepy eyes became somewhat clearer.
“How come you're here? How long have you been sitting? Didn't you get some rest?”
Just waking up, her voice was incredibly soft and mellow.
Jean chuckled. “I went to sleep, and woke up at two o'clock.”
Neera rubbed her eyes and propped herself up. “Why didn't you wake me up?”
“I wanted to let you sleep in, so I didn't call you. You've been tired for so many days, and finally, you could havea good sleep. How could I bear to disturb you?”
After hearing this, Neera felt a sweet joy in her heart.
She glanced at the time, realizing she had slept for so long, and asked, “Where are Mr. Grey and Daisy?” novelbin
Jean gently smoothed her tousled hair while replying, “He's already up and is playing chess downstairs with
Uncle Chad.”
“Where's Daisy? Is she with Aunt Adriana?”
“Yes, she is showing her around the manor. They've gone to admire the flowers in the back garden now.”
After he finished speaking, he suddenly leaned in, his eyes sparkling brightly as he looked at her, a smile playingon his lips. “Perfect,” he said, “we can use this opportunity to spend more time together.”
Lately, she's been busy with all sorts of things, leaving almost no time for the two of them to be alone together.
He finally found a rare opportunity, and he had no intention of letting it slip away.
With these thoughts in mind, he pulled the person into his arms and held her tightly.
Neera curled up the corners of her mouth, as if she had fallen into a honey pot, so sweet that it was irresistible.She willingly nestled into his arms.
A few days ago, despite his presence by her side, they hadn't had any close contact due to her allergies.
Not only Jean, but even she, had long wanted to give him a good hug.
