Chapter 481 She Cares About Him
Shortly after Jean returned to the Imperial Gardens, he received a report from Cloud.
âWe brought the offenders to the police station. Our men are unharmed.â
Jean nodded and said, âHave you found out where the attackers are from?â
âThey should be from Nacrene. The scar-faced man has just been released after a twelve-year prison term. As far as I know, he had just joined Nacrene not long ago.â
âI suppose the Crimea family is behind this,â Jean said coldly.
Cloud nodded. âThat wonât be surprising. The scar-faced man isnât anyone important in the organization, and his subordinates are all random hooligans. I donât think Nacrene would admit any fault.â
Jean chuckled. It sounded like what Sonny would do.
Not only was he cruel, but he also knew how to cover his tracks.
âLooks like he hasnât learned anything from the lesson yet!â Jean said coldly, âGive me a report on properties owned by Crimea Group and Nacrene. Get it done as soon as possible.â
Cloud nodded and said, âYes, Sire.â
After Cloud left, Jean summoned Storm. âGet more people to protect Neera and the triplets.â
If Sonny dared to attack him, who was to say he wouldnât do the same to Neera and the triplets?
Jean had to be prepared.
âYes, Sire. Iâll go and make preparations now,â Storm said and quickly left:
Neera was oblivious to what happened.
The next morning, she sent the triplets to school before going to her office.
She had not sat down for too long before she received a call from Jean. âNeera, are you busy?â
Neera was surprised that Jean had called her by her first name.
He only does that when weâre at his parentsâ house. Did something happen earlier today?
âNot very. Whatâs up?â Neera replied.
Jean did not beat around the bush. âCan you come over to lanâs house? Heâs injured, and things arenât looking too great.â
Neera immediately stood up. âGive me the address. Iâll go there now.â
âOkay,â Jean replied and ended the call.
In a few seconds, Neera received a message containing the location of lanâs house. She wasted no time getting
there.
Storm was the one who answered the door. Neera had never seen him before, and she thought she had gone to the wrong house.
Jean appeared behind Storm. âYouâre here,â he said.
âMm.â Neera calmed herself down and went inside.
As soon as she stepped into the house, she saw lan slumped on the sofa. His face was as pale as a sheet.
Shocked, she asked, âWhat happened? He looks terrible! Is he heavily injured?â
If she hadnât seen lanâs chest moving slightly, she even thought he was dead!
âI donât know. I think itâs poison,â Jean said grimly.
Neera was appalled when she heard that poison was involved. She quickly stepped forward and examined lanâs wound.
At first glance, the wound seemed typical. However, Neera noticed that rashes were forming around it.
The blood that oozed from the wound was slightly purple.
Neera said confidently, âYes, itâs poison. The blood is already purple⦠What happened? He was fine yesterday.â
Jean hesitated for a moment before deciding that
Neera deserved to know he was ambushed the night before.
âWhat?â Neera was shocked to hear that. She blurted, âAre you hurt?â
Her brows were knitted together. It was obvious that she was very worried about him.
