Chapter 968 Adorably Foolish The email from King was crystal clear. It contained information he had inadvertently gathered while infiltrating the internal network of Jones Group.
Neera frowned, feeling worried and unnerved.
She couldnât understand why Alex Jonesâ family would have such a terrifying ancient prescription.
Layers of doubt descended upon her. Without hesitation, she pulled out her phone and contacted King.
âAre you sure this belongs to the Jones Group? I noticed the word âNortonâ marked on the documents.
Whatâs going on?â
King responded nonchalantly, âIâm not entirely sure about the specifics. All I know is that this was copied from within Jones Groupâs database. I originally intended to teach them a lesson, but I didnât expect to unearth this.â
Seeing Neera so concerned, he asked, âIf it matters to you, I can help you look into the Jonesesâ
background.â
Neera was indeed very concerned and didnât hold back with him.
âAll right. I appreciate your help.â
âDonât mention it. This is just a piece of cake. Wait for my update.â
After hanging up the phone, Neera spent the entire afternoon studying the prescription.
In the evening, Jean came over.
When he walked in, Neera didnât even notice. She was still engrossed in staring at the computer.
Jean walked over, curiously glancing at the computer screen.
Upon seeing the words âthe Norton family,â he was immediately taken aback. âHow did you get the Norton familyâs prescription?â
Neera was so focused on her computer that she was startled when he suddenly heard a noise.
Looking up, she saw Jean and quickly greeted him, âYouâre here?â
Jean continued to ask, âYes. Whatâs going on here?â
Neera quickly explained the specific situation, then said, âHowever, I canât think of any connection.
between the Jones family and the Norton family right now! They might be old acquaintances..
Otherwise, Alex wouldnât have used the Red Rash Powder to help Kyra before.â
Jean understood clearly and immediately shared the information that Ian had previously investigated about Alex.
âThey are not old acquaintances. Alex himself is a descendant of the Norton family. You can think of the Jones family as the Norton family! I always felt that Kyraâs involvement with the allergy incident was undeniable, so I had someone investigate it.â
At that point, Neera quickly came to understand. âSo, thatâs how it is! I never expected Alex to have such a profound background, possessing so many forbidden drugs. No wonder he has something as troublesome as the Red Rash Powder.â
12:02 Wed, 25 Oct E 79%I At that point, her brows furrowed deeply, and her eyes filled with frustration. If Alex continues to use and produce these harmful ancient prescriptions, itâll cause endless harm to others. Who knows how many other illegal drugs that guy has made besides the Red Rash Powder?
Jean lightly tapped her forehead. âDonât overthink it for now. Since weâve already got so much on Alex, he wonât be able to wriggle out for long. Relax.â
Only after hearing that did Neera relax.
Then, she looked up at him, her face full of curiosity. âIsnât your ability a bit too impressive? You were able to find out even this?â
Jean couldnât help but laugh. âOnly now do you realize how formidable your fiancé is? In the future, if thereâs anything you want to know, just come and ask me. I can help you find out. Donât spend all day guessing on your own. Isnât it silly not to use such a good information network?â
Neera felt that what he said made sense, and she nodded seriously.
Then, she propped her cheeks with her hands, staring intently at Jean..
He raised an eyebrow. âWhy are you staring at me like that?â
Neera accused him, âYou actually called me silly.â
ä¸ Jean chuckled, very convincingly coaxing, âYes. Youâre adorably silly.â
After he finished speaking, he lowered his head to give her a kiss, the tenderness in his eyes almost overflowing. âLetâs go. Stop working for now. Iâll take you out for a meal.â
âGreat. Iâm starving.â
After tidying up, the two of them, hand in hand, left the research center.
Jean had already made a reservation at the restaurant. Upon arrival, he went straight into the private room.
Unexpectedly, Kyra and Alex were also there.
The two of them entered after Jean and Neera. Their faces were filled with shock when they saw the couple.
âShouldnât Neera be suffering from allergies right now? Why does she look like fine? Have they developed an antidote?â Kyra couldnât help but ask Alex, who was next to her.
Alex immediately refuted, âImpossible! There are only a few people who know the antidote for the Red Rash Powder, let alone make it. Itâs an ancient prescription, and the required medicinal materials are very hard to find!â
Kyra gritted her teeth, asking in frustration, âBut isnât Neera perfectly fine now? How do you explain that?â
