The Enigmatic Return ( Nancy’s )
The Enigmatic Return By Juliana. Spicy Chapter 485

Chapter 485 Were You Flirting With Me?

“Achoo!”

Neera, who was still on the way to the gala, suddenly sneezed.

“Are you cold?” Jean asked.

“No. I felt an itch in my nose. Maybe someone is talking about me behind my back,” Neera said while rubbing the tip of her nose.

Jean was amused. He told Storm, “Turn up the thermostat.”

Storm did what he was told, and the temperature in the car became warmer.

Neera was moved by the gesture. Instinctively, she wanted to say thank you.

“You’re welcome,” Jean said as though he had expected what Neera would say. “When are you going to stop thanking me for every little thing?”

Neera pouted. She clearly remembered Jean telling her not to thank him. “I wasn’t going to say anything. You’re too sensitive.”

“Really?” Jean smirked. He was not going to call her out.

At that moment, his phone began to ring.

He glanced at the screen and saw the call was from his mother.

Jean frowned. He did not answer the call.

He could guess that Wrenn called him to make sure he was going to the gala.

He winced impatiently and paused for a few more seconds before answering it.

As expected, Wrenn said, “Jean, are you at the gala already?”

“I’m on the way there,” Jean replied.

“Good.” Wrenn sounded relieved.

However, she could hear the dissatisfaction in her son’s voice. “Jean, I know you’re unhappy about my decision, but I’m only doing this for you. Kyra is an outstanding girl, and I believe she can be a good complement to you. Remember that you have to introduce her to the reporters tonight…”

Jean lost all patience when he heard that. He interrupted, “I will. Don’t worry.”

She’ll be properly “introduced” tonight!

After he said that, he ended the call.

Neera witnessed the entire exchange. She could feel the temperature in the car drop drastically, and she shuddered instinctively.

“Mr. Beauvort, it’s already pretty cold here. Can you not make it colder? Here, smile!”

She reached out with two fingers and pushed the corner of Jean’s mouth upward.

Jean totally did not expect that. His eyes widened, and he stared straight at her. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Neera felt slightly awkward.

“Is it that hard to make you smile? You’re no fun at all,” she said as she pulled her hand away.

Before she could do so, Jean swiftly grabbed the tips of her fingers tightly.

Neera was surprised. She stared at Jean and said, “What’s… What’s the meaning of this?”

“Ms. Garcia, were you flirting with me just now?” Jean said. There was an ambiguous smile on his face.

Neera was at a loss for a reply. It was only then that she realized what she had done

She didn’t have any ulterior motives. All she wanted to do was to make him smile.

When she heard the word “flirt,” her cheeks turned boiling hot.

“I… wasn’t. Don’t overthink it,” she said as she tried to pull her hand away.

Jean tightened the grip on her fingers. She couldn’t free them no matter how hard she tried.

Even the tips of Neera’s ears were red now. “Let… Let go of me!” she said, carrying with it a hint of frustration.

Jean was pleased to see her reaction. His displeasure from the phone call with his mother had disappeared.

He smiled briefly before letting her fingers go.

“You say one thing but mean another, Dr. Garcia. That’s not very adorable at all,” he said.

How vengeful! She thought.

Storm, who was driving the car, suddenly realized that he was unwelcome in the car…
