Chapter 1020 I Am Really Crying
With a poker face, Jean feigned indifference. “Sorry, but I can’t muster a smile.”
Neera blinked. “Really? How about this, then?”
She leaned in, nting a kiss on Jean’s face, then pulled back to observe his reaction.
Seeing that he was still frowning, she gave him another kiss.
Unexpectedly, Jean was unusually difficult to appease this time around, still maintaining a stern face,
not indulging in casual talk orughter.”

Neera’s face fell at once, deciding to simply y dirty. “If you keep that stern face, I’m going to cry for
you to see…”
Isabe was rendered speechless. Can I just disappear right now? Can someone just knock me out?
Why do I have to see them acting so livingly so early in the morning?
Isabe nced at Neera. “You two enjoy your time. I’m leaving now.”
After she finished speaking, she left quite consciously.
Neera wanted to send her off, but Isabe turned her down. Jean is waiting for someone to coax him. I
don’t want to end up offending him!
Once there was no one else around, Neera had no more reservations, fully indulging in acting spoiled
and willful.
“Come on! Why are you ignoring me? Didn’t I tell you I was just going to take a short nap? If you keep
being mad, I’m really going to cry. And then, even yourforting won’t help,” Neerained.
A crack appeared in Jean’s cold expression, and within a mere two seconds, it crumbledpletely,
transforming into utter helplessness.
“So, you’ve decided to provoke me, haven’t you? Do you think I won’t dare to do anything to you?” He
pinched her face, shaking it slightly, his tone dangerous.
Neera was not afraid at all. She dodged his hand with a smile and nestled into his arms. “Yes. That’s
because I know you spoil me.”
That was why she was so fearless and confident.
Jean sighed deeply in response. It seems she has total control over me.
After breakfast, he watched Neera fall asleep.
In less than three hours, Neera woke up.
Jean was standing off to the side. Seeing her get up, a slight frown creased his brow. “You’ve only been
asleep for a while. Sleep a bit longer.”
Neera shook her head and straightened her clothes. No. I just can’t sleep well. All my dreams are filled
with research and development matters.”
“Isn’t it time for the medical team to change shifts?”
“Isn’t it time for the medical team to change shifts?”
“Even so, I’m still not at ease. I’ve had a bit of sleep, and I’m not tired anymore. Let’s speed up the
process. The sooner we develop it, the sooner we can rx.”N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Jean knew he couldn’t stop her. Feeling quite helpless, he could only let her go.
In the afternoon, Neera was bustling about in theb..
Jean didn’t feel at ease, so he didn’t leave. He stayed in her office, reading emails.
It was a little past three whenn came over, reporting on the situation in Essley. “Nightshade, in
coboration with Prince Gale, dismantled a crucial stronghold in the ck market of Essley. They also
managed to seize evidence of the transactions. However, the trouble is that the name of the trader is
not Alex himself but a man named Kaiden Norton. Later, Prince Gale sent people to investigate Jones
Group. Alex’s exnation was that Kaiden was an important senior member of the group, always in
charge of market transactions. Alex imed he was unaware, and now this person named Kaiden has
already disappeared…
That was not good news.
Jean’s brows slightly furrowed when he asked, “Does this Kaiden really exist?”
Jean wore his dissatisfaction on his face.
They were fully prepared for the matter, aiming to bring down Alex Jones. However, they did not
achieve the most satisfactory oue.
Alex Jones could almost say that he hadpletely evaded everything.
He remained silent, leavingn feeling uneasy and apprehensive.
“Mr. Beauvort, in all fairness, our people are not to me for this. Alex Jones clearly made thorough
considerations a long time ago to prevent this matter from being exposed. Although our sudden
onught initially had some impact on him, he’s certainly no pushover after all. Moreover, he had a
dedicated person handling his dealings with the ck market. On the surface, it had nothing to do with
him, and it wasn’t through the official ounts of Jones Group but through Kaiden’s personal ount.
This led to the unfortunate situation where Prince Gale could not hold Jones Group ountable. He
became an innocent party kept in the dark…”n uttered.
Jean remained silent for quite a while, feeling unhappy within. Ever since I took power, I had been a
commanding presence everywhere, masterfully orchestrating strategies behind the scenes. Well, I
didn’t expect to be outsmarted by someone else!
