The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1237

Avery fell silent and sighed softly after a few seconds.

“But didn’t they make way in the end? Setting aside the Gordon family, the Bartitsu Guild suffered a tremendous defeat. Not a single family reached the mountaintop, and internal strife was rampant. We have to admit that the Lordsworth Estate is superior to our Guild. Both sides may claim to be evenly matched, but is that really the case now?”

Matthew’s expression grew even more unsightly. He wanted to refute but didn’t know how.

After a while, he spoke in a deep voice. “Fine. We haven’t reached the end yet, so how can we determine the winner and loser so soon? Now that the five districts are under our influence, it’s hugely beneficial to us. If managed well, it will undoubtedly be a significant boost.”

At this point, he entrusted a significant task.

“I called you here for an important matter. Although the likelihood of the Gordon family betraying us is minuscule, the new head of the Gordon family is a young girl who lacks worldly experience. I’m concerned that the five districts, under her control, might become chaotic. Since you are her fiancé, you should assist her and maintain control over the five districts.”

“Understood, Mr. Lozano. Don’t worry.”

“There’s one more thing. The president promised that whoever obtains the white flag this time could become an elder. Now it’s time to fulfill that promise. The Guild will add an elder seat for the Gordon family, and their head will be honored as the Ninth Elder. This is a significant matter for our Guild and will require a grand ceremony. After you return, inform the young lady and have her prepare accordingly. The Guild will handle the specific arrangements.”

Upon hearing this, Avery nodded. “Understood.”

The recent jungle election had exhausted Neera.

When she returned to the Gordon residence, she was utterly exhausted. After taking a relaxing hot bath, she didn’t even have the energy to dry her hair. She lay down on the soft, large bed and quickly fell asleep.

She slept deeply.

When she woke up, she stretched lazily, looking at the sunlight outside the window with a somewhat dazed expression.

What time is it now?

She grabbed her phone and was wide-eyed when she saw the time.

It was already late afternoon of the next day! She had slept for a full day and more.

This was quite an impressive feat.

Knock, knock!

The knock on the door startled Neera, who hurriedly ran her hand through her hair and sat up. “Come in.”

A maid entered, holding some clothes. “Ms. Garcia, Mr. Gordon asked me to check if you were awake. If you’re up, please come downstairs for some refreshments. It’s tea time.”

Neera said, “Oh, okay. I’ll go down now.”

After getting herself ready, she went downstairs.

Shane was sitting in the living room, holding a tablet in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other.

When he saw her coming down, he waved the coffee cup at her and smiled, “You’ve finally woken up. I thought you were going to sleep forever. It seems like you were really exhausted. Have some dessert to fill your stomach. We’ll be having dinner in a while.”

Neera walked over and sat down, looking somewhat embarrassed.

“Shane, why didn’t you wake me up?”

Shane smiled, “Why would I wake you up? You’ve been working hard for several days and finally get to relax. How do you feel now? And your shoulder injury, is it better now?”

Neera nodded, cradling her teacup and taking small sips. She also took a bite of cake, enjoying the sweet taste that filled her mouth.

“Yes, it’s mostly healed.”

“That’s good. After dinner, you can contact Uncle Chad and the rest. They’ve been quite worried about you.”

“Yes, I will.”

She had been thinking about them for days but couldn’t contact them while in the mountains, as there was no signal.

Even if there was a signal, given her condition at the time, she didn’t dare to contact them, fearing that they might discover something and worry about her.

After dinner, she returned to her room, sprawled on the bed, and chatted on the phone with her aunt.

They hadn’t been in touch for several days, so Adriana was extremely concerned, bombarding her with questions and showing great care. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Adriana was surprised to learn that she was now the district president.

Even Chad found it quite unbelievable.

“I thought you were just going through the motions, but you ended up taking the lead. You’re impressive, Neera. It looks like I made the right choice for my successor.”

Adriana had some lingering fear. “I heard that the election was very dangerous. You must have experienced a lot of dangers in the mountains. You only report good news and not your troubles. I asked you earlier, and you said everything was fine.”

Neera chuckled, “I really am fine. It’s not that I’m extraordinary. The main thing is that I had someone protecting me, so I didn’t have to exert much effort.”

After bidding farewell to Adriana and Chad, she called the three little ones to inform them that she was safe. After a long conversation filled with words, she finally called the person she had been thinking about.
