The Enigmatic Return ( Nancy’s )
The Enigmatic Return By Juliana. Spicy Chapter 1408

Chapter 1408 

“Alright, it doesn’t matter where I am. It’s all the same to me. Bartitsu Guild is bustling, but staying here isn’t particularly interesting. I might as well go with you to Lordsworth Estate.” 

After he finished speaking, he made a small additional request. 

“By the way, you did promise me before that you’d cook something delicious for me. When we’re at Lordsworth Estate, it would be time for you to fulfill that promise, wouldn’t it?” 

Neera chuckled. “Of course. When the time comes, you’ll be staying at the Gordon residence. Just let me know what you’d like to eat, and I’ll make it for you!” 

After discussing the matter, Neera thought for a moment and then asked him another question. 

“Mr. Weaver, you’ve lived in Bartitsu Guild for so long, there’s something I’d like to ask you. I wonder if you know.” 

“Go ahead, what’s the matter?” 

“Um… It’s about the Cox family’s armory.” 

Upon hearing these words, Finnley’s eyes narrowed. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes extended backward as he gazed at her thoughtfully. 

“I knew it. You’re always up to something. So, you’ve been waiting for me here, haven’t you? What is it? Do you suspect the Cox family, or Bartitsu Guild?” 

Neera touched her nose and said, “Neither. I naturally trust the Cox family. As for what Matthew told me, I don’t believe a single word.” 

“What did Matthew say to you?” 

Neera related Matthew’s words to him. 

After hearing this, Finnley sniggered. “Nonsense. I’m really surprised that Matthew could come up with it. Does he think everyone else is a fool? Do you know how big the armory is? It’s not just any ordinary warehouse that you can build whenever you want, especially under the watchful eyes of Bartitsu Guild. It seems that Matthew will stop at nothing to win you over.’ 

Neera also thought the same. “He even said that if I didn’t believe him, I could ask others in the union. He claimed that there are still people who know about what happened back then.” 

“What a bunch of nonsense! Those people are all on his side. Of course they’re in cahoots with him, parroting the same lines.” 

Neera nodded, then asked again, “Mr. Weaver, do you know who in Bartitsu Guild is aware of the original armory incident? Or, is there anyone within the guild who was particularly close to the Cox family at that time?” 

Finnley paused for a moment, not quite understanding the question. “Why are you asking this?” 

Neera hummed in response. “It’s just a speculation at this point, as I’ve no evidence or clues yet. I’m just asking casually.” 

After some thought, Finnley replied, “It’s been a long time since then, and I’ve never paid much attention to the Cox family. I also don’t have much contact with Bartitsu Guild. I spend my days here in

Thu, 

just asking casually.” 

After some thought, Finnley replied, “It’s been a long time since then, and I’ve never paid much attention to the Cox family. I also don’t have much contact with Bartitsu Guild. I spend my days here in this fighting arts center, so I’m not very informed about their affairs. However, one thing I can confirm is that when the previous head of the Cox family was still in power, their relationship with Bartitsu Guild was not bad, but it wasn’t particularly good either. It was merely due to their position on the board of elders that they had necessary interactions. Overall, my impression is that the guild once tried to control the Cox family, but they were unsuccessful.” 

“The guild tried to control the Cox family? What happened?” Neera was somewhat surprised. 

Finnley thought for a moment, then said, “I can’t recall the specifics. Why don’t you go back and ask your uncle? He should know the details.” 

Neera simply hummed in response and didn’t ask anything further. 

When she returned to the Gordon residence, she was surprised to find that Shane had come back. 

“Shane, how come you’re here? Aren’t you supposed to be in District Twenty-Three? Did something happen over there?” 

The travel-worn Shane had only just returned not long ago and had just managed to find time to take a few sips of water. 

Upon seeing her, he gave a slight smile, walked over, and affectionately ruffled her hair. 

“Don’t worry. Everything is fine over there. There’s nothing urgent for now, so I came back early. I heard you and Jean have registered your marriage. Why didn’t you tell me about such a major event? I feel like you’re not treating me as your brother.” 

Neera stuck out her tongue. “I’m sorry, Shane. I didn’t mean to. It was just that everything happened so suddenly. Not long after we registered our marriage, Jean’s father had an accident. We had to rush back to our country and didn’t have time to notify you.” 

Shane laughed heartily. “Don’t worry about it. Now that I’ve returned, let’s spend some quality time together as a family.” 

Neera chuckled and nodded. 

At this moment, Shane asked again, “Has the decision to move to Lordsworth Estate been made?” 

When he was in District Twenty-Three, he had already heard Chad talk about it, and he didn’t object to it. 

Neera hummed in affirmation. “We’re just waiting for the right moment.” 

“I heard you went to the fighting arts center to see Mr. Weaver, what did he say?” 

“He said that it doesn’t matter where he is, so he’s willing to go to Lordsworth Estate with us. 

“That’s good to hear. Mr. Weaver has been alone for so many years, with the Gordon family being his only close friends. He and my Uncle Chad have always had a good relationship. It’s nice that they can be together.” 

As the two were conversing, Chad emerged from the study and descended the stairs.
