Chapter 814: Neve Appears
Neve, who had been in seclusion for several months, finally came out of her closed-door cultivation. She looked refreshed and full of energy.
As soon as she appeared, the entire sect was abuzz with excitement. Neve was known to be one of the most talented disciples in the sect, and everyone was eager to see what progress she had made during her seclusion.
Neve's master greeted her warmly and asked about her progress. Neve smiled brightly and replied that she had made significant breakthroughs in both her martial arts cultivation and spiritual energy cultivation.
Her master nodded approvingly and praised her hard work. He then announced that he would arrange a sparring match for Neve to showcase her skills to the rest of the sect.
The news quickly spread throughout the sect, causing a stir among all its members. Everyone wanted to witness this highly anticipated battle between two top disciples.
On the day of the sparring match, a large crowd gathered around the arena where it would take place. The atmosphere was tense as everyone waited for Neve's opponent to arrive.
Finally, a figure appeared on stage - it was none other than another top disciple from their sect! The two warriors faced each other with steely determination in their eyes as they prepared for battle.
The fight began fiercely with both sides exchanging blows at lightning speed. However, it quickly became clear that Neve held an advantage over her opponent due to her superior skills honed during months of intense training.
In just a few minutes, Neve emerged victorious from this intense battle much to everyone's amazement! Her fellow disciples cheered loudly as they congratulated their champion on yet another impressive victory!
From that day onwards, Neve became even more respected within their sect as one of its greatest warriors - an inspiration for all those who sought greatness through hard work and dedication! "No, I just..."
"Miss Ellis, how would you feel if Lana's actions were put on you?"
Before Julia could finish her sentence, Yanis interrupted her. "But if it was put on me, I wouldn't forgive or want to forgive. It's just that some things are in the past and I don't want to dwell on them. I just want to live my life peacefully without thinking too much about anything else."
"And also, someone came with you before to plead for another person. At that time, my attitude was refusal because when someone does something wrong they should be punished, right?"
Julia nodded. "Yes, but I just feel sorry for her because we haven't done anything for her since the incident."
At this point Julia paused and said: "I came here completely of my own accord and it has nothing to do with the Ellis family."
"I know that so let's forget about this matter altogether. Miss Ellis is here today only to help your mother order a birthday gift," Yanis said as she looked at Julia.
After a few seconds of silence from Julia she nodded and said: "Yes, I'm only here to help my mother order a birthday gift."
After finishing their meal Yanis paid directly saying: "Let me pay for this meal; if there is any news over here then I will contact you in advance."
Julia looked uneasy as she watched Yanis say this.
"I understand how you feel; if it were one of my friends who grew up together with me since childhood then like you did today - trying everything possible - I would also try everything possible," Yanis added. Upon hearing these words from Yanis' mouth Julia smiled slightly and said: "Thank you for understanding."
After Julia left, Yanis turned back towards the office but couldn't calm down.
There are always so many unexpected things in life.
For example Neve's situation or Lana's situation.
The final outcome of two women who had been involved with Zane didn't seem too good.
She didn't know who should be blamed for these situations.
But from beginning till end, she was always seen as an obstacle by both women.
So they both wanted her out of their sight.
However, the ending seemed difficult to resolve.
Neve alone implicated the entire Bennett family while revealing so many unexpected truths.
Lana did likewise burying herself into trouble.
It seemed like all because of her yet at the same time not related at all.
As Yanis was lost in thought, her phone vibrated on the side.
She reached over and picked up the phone to check the notification.
The headline read: [Former Movie Star Released Early...]
Upon seeing this title, Yanis was taken aback.
Even if Neve had done something that warranted her release, it would still require some procedures. It wouldn't be possible for her to get out so quickly.
After all, she was originally sentenced to seven years in prison. It hasn't even been a year yet and she's already out. It's hard for anyone not to replace it unbelievable. Yanis stared at the headline on her phone for a while before finally clicking into it.
The picture attached above was somewhat blurry but Yanis could still tell that the skinny person in the photo was Neve. Adam stood next to her.
As she looked at it, Bonnie called in.
Seeing who was calling, Yanis could guess what Bonnie wanted to say before even answering the call.
After picking up and before having a chance to speak herself, Bonnie's voice came through from the other end of the line: "Neve is out!"
Yanis responded with an "Mm-hmm" and said nothing more as Bonnie continued speaking: "I told you this morning. Did you remember?"
"I remembered," replied Yanis calmly. "Do you want me to recite everything back?"
"I wasn't joking with you," said Bonnie seriously
"I know," replied Yanis understandingly. "I'm currently at work right now though - Phoebe and Stanley are here along with others I know well; even our neighbor is here too - there are plenty of familiar faces around me right now."
"Should I call a security company then?" suggested Yanis after thinking about it briefly
"That's not a bad idea," agreed Bonnie immediately without hesitation."Wait for me."
Bonnie hung up without giving any chance for further conversation from Yanis' end of things which left her feeling both amused and helpless as she put down her phone after trying unsuccessfully calling back due being met by an engaged tone when dialing again later on..
For most of that afternoon, Yanishad stayed put insideher office until Zane called around five o'clock which madeher stop whatever work shewas doingand pick upthe call."Zane?"she asked upon hearing his voice onthe other endoftheline.
"Are you still atthe hospital or haveyou gone backto your store?" he asked straight away.
"At my store. I'm getting readyto head home soon. Why doyou ask? Are we meetingup somewhere tonight?"
"No, I just wantedto checkinwithyou sincewehaven't talkedfor awhile."
Zane responded, "I'll come pick you up."
Yanis didn't refuse. "Okay, I'll wait for you in the store."
After hanging up with Zane, Yanis went outside to look at Linda and the others. "Aren't you guys going to leave work?"
Linda usually left on time but today she was still busy after hours.
Linda sighed. "I want to leave too, but those people outside are a little scary. If we leave and something happens to you, what do we do?"
Hearing Linda's words, Yanis looked outside and saw men in black suits standing on both sides of the door. She was startled. "Who are they?"
Stanley came out from one side carrying a bunch of things and said, "They might all be mute or something because Linda and I asked them questions for half an hour without any response or even a sound like 'uh-huh'. What else could it be if not that they're mute?"
"How long have they been here?" Yanis asked.
Linda held up three fingers towards Yanis."More than three hours."
Yanis couldn't help but think about the call she made to Bonnie earlier. She thought about it for a moment then turned around and went back into her office to make another phone call.
The other end picked up almost immediately after dialing.
"Bonnie, did you arrange those people at the store entrance?" Yanis asked directly.
Bonnie laughed when she heard Yanis' question."Have they arrived already? That's pretty fast! So how is it? Do you feel safe now?"
Hearing Bonnie's words, Yanis felt helpless."They're standing at our door like they're going to kill someone. Linda and them didn't dare walk out. If someone doesn't know better, it looks like they came here specifically to kill us!"
Bonnie exclaimed, "Is it really that exaggerated? Didn't they say that these guys were gentle enough?"
Yanis retorted, "Where did you replace these people from anyway?"
"It's just a bodyguard company. I placed an order with them, and as soon as I did so, the company promised me that someone would arrive right away. They guaranteed your safety down even down every last hair!" Bonnie explained
Yanissaid sarcastically, "Well, I've already lost two hairs since then. Dothey have any compensation policyfor this kind of thing?" Upon hearing this, Bonnie couldn't help laughing."Didyou really lose some hair? Let me ask how this can be compensated." Taking adeep breath, Yanissaid firmly, "You needto getthem outofhere. ImeetwithZanelaterand there won't be any problems."
