    Chapter 711 Don’t Want to Drag You Into It


    Danie hesitated, but Draco warned, “Don’t leave Jordan Residence. I can’t assure you what’ll happen


    once you step out.”


    Draco firmly believed Danie wouldn’t depart. After all, she had to consider the possibility of him


    exposing her involvement in the murder incident if she did. He hadn’t exposed her yet, as she was still


    under Casey’s control. He was sparing her for Casey’s happiness.


    Danie’s eyes brimmed with hatred, but shecked the courage to say more. She turned and returned


    to


    the house.


    Eira paid another visit to Neil at Riverview Vi.


    Upon entering, she found Neil asleep on the sofa, one arm shielding his eyes. Papers and photos were


    scattered around him and on the floor. Eira guessed he had fallen asleep while reading.


    As she began to tidy up, Neil suddenly removed his arm and opened his eyes. Startled by Eira’s


    presence,


    he hastily sat upright and stashed the documents behind him.


    “Why didn’t you announce your arrival?” Neil started gathering the papers on the floor.


    so guarded


    Eira observed Neil in silence as he concealed everything. She questioned. “Why are you so g


    around me, Neil?


    Neil nonchntly replied, “I told youst night that I didn’t want you involved in this matter.”


    Eira persisted, “But you let me help with thepany’s transfer before. Why won’t you share this with


    me?


    I’m not your enemy! It would be better if you confided in me so we could solve this together. Look at the


    mess you’re in now.”


    Eira held some food containers, and Neil reached for them. She hid them behind her and asked, “Neil,


    is


    our rtionship so shallow?”


    Neil sighed, appearing weary. “Eirá, let’s eat. Alright?”


    Eira replied, “If you can’t treat me as a friend, I won’t eat here today, and I won’t work at Carol’s ce


    anymore.”


    “Eira, stop being stubborn!” Neil’s frustration was visible.


    She ced the items on the coffee table and knelt beside Neil. “What’s troubling you, Neil?”

    Neil looked away, muttering, “Nothing’s bothering me.”


    “Can I interpret that as you’re keeping me out of it to protect me?” Eira asked.


    Neil confessed, “I’m powerless in this situation. In fact, I might face unknown dangers, so I don’t want


    to involve you.


    Eira challenged, “Do you think I can’t take care of myself?


    Nell rified, “It’s the other party that’s too powerful.”


    “Is it the Jordans? Eira blurted out


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Neil gazed at her in astonishment. “What made you think that?”


    Eira exined, “In Angelbay, the influential families are the Jordans, Xanders, and Prices. Your


    rtionship with Alex is fine, and you get along well with Carol. That leaves the Jordans. Excluding


    Evan, it can only be his father.”


    Neil chuckled. “You’re too clever for your own good.”


    “So, this is rted to the Jordans, right?” Eira pressed.


    Neil knew Eira would investigate further once she was sure of her target, potentially putting herself in


    danger. He sighed and began sharing their grievances with Draco.


    “So, Neil, you’re disheartened because he’s too powerful, and you don’t know where to begin to make


    him pay?” Eira asked.
