The Enigmatic Return novel Chapter 104

Neera chuckled coldly and said, "Such a large amount! No wonder Alfonso was insistent on letting me marry into this."

Jean continued to say, "None of that money has been handed over yet. The original plan was to settle everything tomorrow."

He paused intentionally and looked at Neera.

Neera asked, "So why are you telling me all this?"

Jean said, "Let’s make a deal. We both will benefit from it."

"What kind of deal?"

"You probably don’t really want the Garcia family to soar, right? In that case, I can prevent whatever is about to occur."

Neera remained cautious and said, "It sounds good, but... there must be conditions, right?"

Jean nodded and said, "Yes, it’s easy. You just need to continue treating me."

"I can transfer 1.3 billion dollars for you! However, we will go along with the wedding. It would damage our images if the wedding ended so quickly. So, let’s act as a normal couple bound with a contract."

Neera asked, "A contract?"

"Yes. You won't need to fulfill any of your wife's duties. Just act as my wife to the public. Once a certain period has passed, we can announce the end of the marriage. We won't even need to get a marriage certificate. Of course, if you need any help from me, I won't refuse."

Neera was stunned by Jean’s plan! He had a really good plan! However, I feel something odd about it, but at the same time, it seemed fair. He’s offering me 1.3 billion dollars, which is much higher than the original payment he offered! Most importantly, the Garcia family would not gain any benefit from this at all.

After considering it thoroughly, Neera said, "I accept the deal. I'll do as you say, but you have to keep your word!"

Jean replied, "In that case, let’s have pleasant cooperation. I’ll get Ian to prepare the contract. When the time comes, you just have to sign it."

Neera nodded and said, "Sure."

Then she gestured toward him and asked, "Now, can you untie the rope for me?"

Jean finally acknowledged her request and walked over to free her.

As the rope was untied, Neera could only feel pain in her wrists and ankles. I can even see the marks left by the rope. I’ll just apply some medicine to it; it should be fine.

But Neera took a step; she stumbled forward, losing control of her body.

Jean tried to grab her, but both of them lost their balance. They fell heavily to the ground.
