Chapter 571 Enter A Hotel Room With Another Man
Neeraâs expression grew icily.
She retorted, âReally? Mr. Hanson never mentioned that to me.â
She spoke casually, âIf my memory serves me right, Mr. Hanson recruited me for the research, and all of
you were sent to support my efforts. Thus, when youâre in my presence, you follow my lead. If that doesnât sit well with you, feel free to leave.â
After being repeatedly defeated, Thoraâs temper flared.
âNeera, stop making a big fuss of it and bossing me. Using my fatherâs name to put me in my place?
How dare you?â
Neera didnât even bat her eyelids.
âAs I mentioned earlier, if this arrangement doesnât suit you, thereâs the door. Shall I contact Mr.
Hanson to clarify matters? Or perhaps book a plane ticket for you? I can even organize a ride to the airport. Relax, itâs not a big deal; you donât have to thank me.â
Thora found herself at a loss; she couldnât win the argument, especially not against Neera.
She was driven mad. She stammered for a while without making a point.
Tensions escalated.
Osbert and Luigi looked at each other. The two quickly intervened to mediate.
The ever-peacemaker Luigi started to calm Thora down by saying, âCalm down, Ms. Hanson. You know her personality is always straightforward.
âMs. Garcia, we have been on a plane all day, and we are tired,â he said, turning to Neera. âPlease donât take it personally when she speaks without thinking sometimes.â
Osbert firmly sided with Neera.
âMr. Hanson made it clear that he sent us to Kingsview to conduct research. Our main role was to assist Neera. We should follow Neeraâs plans. Your father is still awaiting the
research findings, Mrs. Hanson. You wouldnât want to make things more challenging for him at this crucial time, would you?â
Thora glared at Osbert as she became even more irate.
Luigi quickly moved over to comfort her out of worry that she might say something inappropriate.
âMs. Hanson, calm down. Donât follow your whims. Osbert is right. Mr. Hanson will be irate if we delay the
progress.
Thora finally took a step back so as not to displease her father.
Later that evening, Neera had Katy take them to the hotel.
By evening, she had made a reservation to treat them.
She found out that Thora wouldnât be attending when she told Osbert about the arrangement.
Neera didnât seem surprised or bothered. In actuality, she was more at ease, and because of her absence, the dinner went smoothly.
Osbert kept asking about Neeraâs situation after she returned.
He heard everything and sighed, âIâm glad youâre doing well.â
Neera was amused. She teased, âWhy do you sound like an old man?â
âFollowing your departure, I felt aimless abroad. Osbert sighed as he tugged at his hair.
âI was happier when you were at the lab. I once thought it was a waste for someone with your academic prowess to go into business back home.
âBut now that I see that you, I think you certainly live up to the standard of a career woman as you excel in several different fields. You are truly my hero.â
His words warmed Neera. She said, âEnough about me. Tell me about you all and how Mr. Hanson is doing.â
âNot bad. Mr. Hanson always talks about you. He really misses you since you were his best and most deserving pupil. Some time agoâ¦â
The three chatted over their meals.
Osbert thought about the triplets. He said, âNeera, please take me to my three adorable nephews when youâre free. I hadnât seen them in a very long time, and I missed them terribly.â
Neera grinned and said, âOf course.â
She took Luigi and Osbert back to the hotel after dinner.
Osbert suddenly remembered something when they arrived at the hotel.
âI purchased some gifts for them before I flew here. Do you mind helping me give it to them?â
Neera said with a smile, âCertainly, I need to thank you on their behalf.â
She got out of the car, followed him to the hotel, and fetched the gifts from his room.
Kyra was in Kingsview by chance to shoot a variety show. She happened to stay at the same hotel.
It was a coincidence that she had just returned from outside after having dinner.
She happened to spot Neera entering a hotel room with another man.
She quickly took out her phone and snapped a photo.
The next day, Kyra took the initiative to ask Wrenn out.
âAunt Wrenn, is Jeanâs injury getting better?â
Wrenn remembered their earlier disagreement when Kyra mentioned her sonâs injury.
Wrenn remembered their earlier disagreement when Kyra mentioned her sonâs injury.
âHe said heâs all right, but G od knows,â she said sternly.
Kyra had a feeling something was wrong. She saw an opportunity to make herself stand out.
âAre you
still upset with him? Donât be upset. Jean will feel sorry for you if you become ill. He may have a sharp tongue, but he never intentionally irritates you. I actually have some spare time tonight. Should we go to see him together?â
Wrenn was extremely pleased with Kyra. The tension in her heart had finally dissipated.
âYouâre so busy, but youâre still thinking about Jean. Youâre so thoughtful.â
Kyra chuckled, but her mind was on the photo she had taken with her phone.
Yes, Iâm thinking of Jean. Iâm going to surprise him tonight!
