The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean)

Soon, the symphony orchestra started their performance. The scene looked quite spectacular.

At the front, the conductor first faced the audience with a polite bow and then turned around, gracefully waving his baton.

At the same time, the music slowly began to play. The atmosphere was enchanting and irresistible.

During the performance, Jean casually glanced at Neera.

She leaned back in her chair, seemingly wholly immersed in the music.

Neera's face appeared even more charming under the dim light. Jean could not stop looking at her.

His gaze may have been intense. Neera sensed something and opened her eyes.

They locked eyes, staring intensely at each other.

Both of them were momentarily stunned.

Neera asked, "Why are you looking at me?"

Jean remained calm and said, "I didn't expect you to be so immersed. Do you like it?"

Neera nodded and said, "Of course!"

Jean nodded and didn't say anything more, calmly turning his head as if he had not been staring at her earlier.

However, he noticed his heart rate seemed to be increasing!

He had let out a long sigh.

Fortunately, he was able to resolve the embarrassment.

There hadn't been anyone who had made him feel this way before.

This was something unprecedented.

Neera was having doubts too. She felt like Jean had acted a bit strange. But he acted as if nothing had happened. She wondered if it was just an illusion.

They fell silent.

After a while, the concert ended, and the audience began to leave.

Jean and Neera left together, although they didn't communicate.

There was no particular reason for this. Their seats were next to each other.

Neera walked in front of Jean, feeling weird walking with him. Jean remained silent while observing her slender back.

The grand theater was crowded. Neera was pushed by someone when she walked down the stairs. Her steps faltered, and she tilted forward uncontrollably!

She could not react quickly and was about to collide with the person below the stairs. She felt her heartbeat increase uncontrollably.

At this critical moment, Jean quickly reached out and grabbed her.

Neera felt a strong force pulling her backward and fell into Jean's embrace.
