Chapter 1116 A Perfect Hiding Place After entering the house, she went upstairs and quickly tidied up her luggage.
When she headed back downstairs, both Charles and Shane were present.
âAll packed up, I see.â Noticing her carrying a small suitcase, Chad pointed at the two men. âFor this trip, both of them will accompany you, as well as Zephyr. They will protect you. If you have any issues, feel free to ask them.â
Neera nodded. âThank you, Uncle Chad.â
Next, she turned to the two men and expressed her gratitude, âShane, Mr. Lambert, Iâm afraid Iâll have to trouble you this time.â
Charles chuckled. âMs. Garcia, youâre too polite. Just call me by my name.â
Shane also said, âWeâre all family here; no need to be so formal.â
Then, he solemnly assured Chad, âUncle Chad, rest assured, I will definitely protect Neera. I will ensure she returns safe and sound; not even a single hair on her head will be missing.â
Chad nodded before reminding Charles, âTake good care of her.â
âUnderstood. Even if it costs me my life, I will ensure Ms. Garciaâs safety.â
An hour later, Avery came to pick Neera up in his car.
Chad and Adriana originally intended to accompany her all the way to the airport, but Neera managed to dissuade them.
âNo need to go through all this trouble. We can just go with Mr. Cox. Once we arrive, Iâll send you a message.â
Nonetheless, Adriana couldnât help but worry. Holding Neeraâs hand, she couldnât bear to let the younger woman 1.
âWhen you get there, you must take good care of yourself. Be careful with your words and actions. Try not to offend anyone if possible. After all, youâre in a foreign and unfamiliar place. If anything goes wrong, Iâll be worried. If anything happens, consult with Shane and Charles. Remember, no matter what, your safety is the most important thing.â
Listening to Adrianaâs endless reminders, Neera felt a warmth in her heart and hugged her.
âI know, Aunt Adriana. Just stay at home and wait for me to return. Donât overthink things. If youâre not busy, why not go out with Uncle Chad? Pay more attention to him. Otherwise, if he gets jealous of the attention youâre giving me, your niece, I would feel so wronged.â
Exasperated Adriana couldnât help but chide, âYou little rascal! You still have the mood to tease me?â
She personally escorted them to the manorâs entrance, watching as Neera and the others got into the car. Only then did she reluctantly withdraw her gaze.
Chad wrapped his arms around her shoulders, gently comforting her, âDonât worry, everything will be all right.â
Over an hour later, in Kingsview.
11:07 Fri, 3 Nov 0 Jean received a message from the subordinates he had left in Essley.
Mrs. Beauvort has just boarded the plane heading to Phison.
After reading it, his eyes hardened, his expression inscrutable.
Putting away his phone, he suppressed the irritation bubbling within him and grumpily ordered Cloud, âBook a flight to Phison for the day after tomorrow!â
These past few days, Cloud had been sticking around Jean. The tense atmosphere perpetually surrounding the latter had him treading on eggshells, afraid to upset his boss.
Right away, he headed out to do as ordered.
Once he left the hospital room, he let out a long sigh of relief.
If Mr. Beauvort doesnât reconcile with Mrs. Beauvort soon, Iâm afraid we wonât have any good days aheadâ¦
In truth, if possible, Jean wished he could fly over right now to meet Neera sooner.
When he thought about Avery, who was secretly scheming by her side, he became utterly infuriated.
However, he had yet to fully resolve the matters here, so he really couldnât get away for the time being.
Now that they had discovered Asherâs whereabouts, he had to end things once and for all to permanently eliminate any future trouble.
That evening, at a bustling dock, a massive cargo ship was moored.
Workers bustled about, moving goods in preparation for international shipment.
Asher disguised himself as a porter by donning ragged clothes. Then, carrying a box of supplies, he seized the opportunity to sneak onto the ship.
In order to leave with this ship, he had spent quite a bit of money, even going so far as to borrow someone elseâs identity.
At first, everything went smoothly. It seemed as if no one had discovered his identity, nor did anyone notice his existence.
After boarding the ship, he hid himself on the lowest level of the cargo vessel.
The place was filled to the brim with goods and had an unpleasant odor. The surroundings were pitch black, making for a rather poor environment.
However, it was a great place to hide.
For the sake of successfully escaping, Asher, despite his distaste, chose to endure.
After all, once he was out of this countryâs jurisdiction, would regain his freedom and could move freely again!
Whenever he thought of this, he couldnât help but feel a bit smug.
Accompanying him were several foreign men who specifically came over to warn him.
âBehave yourself! Otherwise, none of us will be able to save you!â
Times had changed from the past. Asher naturally didnât dare to act rashly as he obediently complied.
