âI think you should know what I mean. Joanna has been very concerned and
responsible for your condition for the past two years. Even though someone
else is treating you now, you shouldnât burn bridges and completely shut
Joanna out of your medical care. Itâs too heartless of you to just kick her aside
like that; she still has value to offer.â
Jean squinted his eyes slightly, a hint of displeasure in his gaze.
âSo, she went to you to plead on her behalf, asking you to intervene?â
Wrenn shook her head, âI knew youâd think that way, but Joanna is not that
kind of person. She didnât say a single bad word about Ms. Garcia in front of
me. She even praised her a few times. She simply informed me about your
condition when she was doing a routine check for me.â
Jean wasnât sure whether to believe it or not, but his demeanor grew even

any progress in two years.â
âWords may say that, but Joanna has put in effort too. Itâs just that your
condition is extremely complicated. Keeping her on the team is a
precautionary measure, for there will be times when youâll need her expertise,
understand?â
As Wrenn continued, her tone became increasingly firm, clearly intending to
stand up for him.
âSo, I wonât agree to remove her from the team. You must reinstate Joanna in
her position if you want me and your father to feel at ease.â
Listening to her words, leaving no room for disagreement, Jeanâs gaze
dimmed. In the end, he didnât agree or reject outright.
Later that evening, after visiting his great-uncle, he returned to the company.

Shortly after, Wrenn told Joanna about the conversation.
Joanna took Jeanâs silence as consent and was overjoyed, profusely
thanking Wrenn, speaking as sweetly as honey.
She told Wrenn exactly what she wanted to hearâ¦
After leaving the hospital, Jean went directly back to the company.
Busy throughout the day, he had an unexpected social engagement in the
evening and didnât return home, heading straight to meet with the client.
On Neeraâs side, she also made a phone call to Zuniga.
Thave a social engagement tonight, so I wonât be coming home for dinner.
Can you pick up the kids and make sure they eat well without waiting for
me?â

Zuniga naturally agreed.
Later, she went to the restaurant with Levi.
The restaurant was carefully chosen by Levi, with a vintage decor that
created a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere.
Neera looked around at the decorations and ambiance inside the private
room and remarked, âThis place is nice.â

Levi pulled out the chair for her, smiling warmly. âI knew youâd like it. The food
here is also great, so we can savor it later.â

He was attentive, which made Neera feel a bit uncomfortable, but she kept a
composed expression, nodding in thanks as she took her seat.
Soon, the other executives arrived, and the atmosphere became lively.
Levi took responsibility to introduce several high-level executives to Neera.

He introduced them in sequence, pointing to the lady sitting on his other side.
Neera looked over and found that she was quite beautiful, a typical savvy
and capable urban elite woman, exuding an alluring aura.
She smiled at her and politoly grooted, âHollo.â
Scarlet also smiled in return, but her approach wasnât as enthusiastic as the
others, âIâve heard of Ms. Garciaâs name from Mr. Wilkes. Today, I finally get the
chance to meet you.â
She raised her wine glass and continued, âNice to meet you. Please take care
of me.â
Noera, upon hearing her words, glimpsed a glint of curiosity in her clear eyes.
Scarlet seemed polite with her words, but her attitude gave off a sense of

coldness.
Even⦠Neera could sense a hint of hostility emanating from her.
Initially, Neera was somewhat puzzled.

They were meeting for the first time, and she hadnât done anything to
provoke Scarlet, so why did she suddenly hold some animosity toward her?
But it didnât take long for her to figure out the reason.
During the meal, Scarlet occasionally glanced at Levi, engaging in
conversation with him, her eyes expressing more than just a casual interest.
And Leviâs care and attention towards her were somewhat apparentâ¦.

Neera guessed that Scarlet probably had feelings for Levi, and thatâs why she
saw Neera as a potential rival!
Neera couldnât help but find it a little amusing.

This was truly an unfounded disaster!
However, Scarlet didnât think that wayâ¦
She had worked hard for so long, finally securing her position, and she
belloved it was due to her abilities that she reached such heights.
Therefore, she looked down on Neera, who seemed to have been given her
position through connections.
Even more, she disliked Leviâs warm attitude toward Neeraâ¦
After all, he was quite aloof when he was with her.
Neera didnât expect all this, nor did she pay much attention to Scarletâs
hostility. Instead, she enjoyed the meal wholeheartedly.
Her down-to-earth demeanor made the senior
impression of her.

After dinner, the group suggested moving to another venue.

Neera wanted to go home, but she didnât want to spoil the mood of the first
gathering, so she went along with them to the club.
After all, she was the one treating everyone, so it was only natural to treat
them until the end.

At the new venue, the group ordered plenty of drinks and engaged in relaxed
conversation while having fun.
Levi remained seated next to Neera, actively pouring her drinks and taking
care of her.
However, Neera didnât drink much.
She didnât particularly enjoy this type of place, even though it was the
highest-end club in Kingsview, with a calm and sophisticated environment
and well-mannered guests. Still, she couldnât warm up to it.

During the time everyone was drinking and enjoying themselves, she took out
her phone and sent a message to the triplets, asking what they were up to.
Seeing that Neera wasnât actively participating, Levi tried to strike up a
conversation with her, trying to make the
of this opportunity for more
contact.
Meanwhile, upstairs in the VIP private room,
Jean was there too.
His position had an excellent view, and with just a slight glance, he could
oversee the entire scene.
At this moment, he noticed the situation downstairs and frownedâ¦
