Furthermore, the Gordon family was also involved in this matter. 

He didn’t mind for himself, but he didn’t want Neera to be affected because of him. 

If he couldn’t even protect himself, how could he confidently promise that he could protect Neera? 

Although he was reluctant to admit it, he understood that he had no choice but to accept it. 

With this in mind, he said with a serious expression, “It’s not that I don’t want to, but I have some reservations. However, if Colin can truly deliver on his promises, then there’s no reason why it can’t be done.” 

Neera nodded, about to say something, when suddenly, a car appeared in her line of sight, brightening her eyes. 

Avery noticed the change in her expression. Following her gaze, he immediately saw Jean stepping out of the car not far away, leisurely walking towards Neera. 

He approached without even acknowledging Avery’s presence. He took Neera’s hand and asked softly, “Are you guys finished talking?” 

Neera nodded slightly. “Yes! Colin just left. What are you doing here? Didn’t I ask you to wait for me at home?” 

Jean smiled, softening the sharp lines of his face. 

“I came to pick you up because I was worried about you, and besides, I didn’t have much else to do.”  Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After he finished speaking, it seemed as though Avery’s presence just registered with him. With a subtle flutter of his eyelids, he acknowledged Avery in a manner that was neither cold nor warm. 

“It’s been a while, Mr. Cox.” 

Avery’s cheeks twitched slightly, showing his reluctance to engage with him. 

“Indeed, it has been a long time, Mr. Beauvort,” he said, mindful of Neera’s presence and trying not to show his displeasure. 

Jean didn’t pay much attention to his cold attitude. He casually greeted him, then turned to Neera and asked, “Is there anything else to discuss? If not, we’ll head home.” 

“Ah, wait a moment.” Neera turned to look at Avery. “Mr. Cox, let’s sit down and discuss the details of moving to Lordsworth Estate some other time.” 

Avery nodded. “I will visit tomorrow to see Mr. Gordon. We can talk more then.” 

“Alright. I’ll go first, then.” 

The two said their goodbyes, and Neera followed Jean into the car. 

Avery watched as the car’s tail lights disappeared, his eyes gradually darkening, filled with a swirl of complex 

emotions. 

On the other side, around the corner of the street, a Lotus sports car roared to life and sped off. 

In the car, Tiago was in control of the steering wheel, while Colin sat next to him, clicking his tongue for quite a while.

With a look of disdain, Tiago barely resisted the urge to kick him out of the car. He cursed, “Will you ever stop? I was kind enough to give you a ride. Can’t you just keep quiet?” 

Colin dismissed it nonchalantly, casting a proud glance at him. “What do you know? I’m just reflecting.” 

“Quit reflecting and start talking already. I thought you were thirsty.” 

Colin looked ahead, leisurely keeping him in suspense. “Well, there’s not much to say. I just had a conversation with Lady Phison here.” 

Tiago chuckled coldly. “A conversation? Be careful, loose lips sink ships. Jean might just shut you down immediately.” 

Colin disagreed. “Your words are rather crude. The lord is not such a petty person. Besides, the use of firearms is not allowed in Phison.” 

Tiago sneered, “Not allowed? Rules are made by people. As long as Jean wants to, with a snap of his fingers, the Bartitsu Guild will have nothing to do with it. Isn’t he the one who calls the shots in the entire Lordsworth Estate? When the time comes, he can do whatever he wants with you.” 

Colin shrugged, completely unafraid. “No need to worry. I know what I’m doing. Rest assured that I haven’t revealed anything.” 

Tiago drove at a breakneck speed despite leaning back lazily in his seat. “I feel that if Lordsworth Estate helps too often, Lady Phison will inevitably become suspicious. She’s a smart woman.” 

On this matter, Colin wholeheartedly agreed. “You’re right about that. She did start having doubts today.” 

At this point, he was somewhat puzzled. “Why does our lord have to be so secretive? Wouldn’t it be better to be straightforward? Why does he have to go through all these twists and turns to help his own wife? Lordsworth Estate has always been open and honest. When have we ever done this?” 

“What do you know?” Tiago retorted. “This is called romance. At first, the lord helped Lady Phison secretly probably because he didn’t want to upset her due to the cold war between them. Later, for the sake of the Gordon family and to prevent her from facing difficulties in the Bartitsu Guild, he kept silent about it. Oh, by the way, you haven’t mentioned what Lady Phison said. Does she want to seek refuge in Lordsworth Estate?” 

Colin raised his eyebrows. “Of course. Now the Cox and Gordon families have no other options. The Bartitsu Guild is really ruthless. It seems they want to push the Cox and Gordon families into a corner. If the Cox and Gordon families don’t find a way out, I’m afraid they’ll be in trouble.” 

Tiago was pleased. “This is good. Jean’s wish has finally come true. As long as the Gordon family is rightfully under the protection of Lordsworth Estate, the day he reveals his identity should not be far off.” 

Colin nodded. “Let’s hurry up. I’m tired of pretending in front of Lady Phison every day. Who would have thought that one day/our cold and heartless lord would go to such lengths to protect a woman without any desire or demand…” 

In the car going in the opposite direction, Neera suddenly sneezed and covered her mouth. She then rubbed her nose absentmindedly. 

Jean frowned. “Caught a cold?”. 

“I don’t think so.” Neera sniffed. “My nose feels itchy.” 

“I don’t think so.” Neera sniffed. “My nose feels itchy.” 

Then, with great enthusiasm, she continued to talk to him about the things that had happened in the cafe. 

“I am amazed at how smoothly everything went. Mr. Wiley was very down-to-earth. I didn’t even have to bring it up, and we covered all the necessary topics, which saved me a lot of trouble. Additionally, the conditions he suggested were very straightforward. We simply need to maintain proper conduct without any additional obligations for Lordsworth Estate. Don’t you find it quite remarkable?”
