After they had that talk, Neera took the old man to resign from the diner.
The diner owner was easy to talk to. He agreed with a smile.
“I always had a feeling there was something unique about you, but I never expected you to be from a well-off family. Grandpa, don’t run away from home again. See how concerned your family has been. Is this your granddaughter? She seems to care deeply for you.”
Hearing those words, Gladeon felt a pang of guilt and stole a quick glance at Neera.
Neera wore a poker face. She didn’t display any emotion on her face.
Gladeon sighed and expressed his gratitude, “Thank you for taking me in and taking good care of me. Sorry for all the trouble.”
The diner owner waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry about it. Go home and take good care of
yourself.”
After that, the trio left the diner.
Neera dropped Isabelle off at the hospital before she took Gladeon to the police station.
When the police learned that Gladeon had been found, they immediately informed his family.
Neera had no intention of meeting with the Garcias. Therefore, she decided to leave before they got to the police station.
Before she left, she sternly warned Gladeon, “Don’t you dare to disappear on your own again. In a few days, I’ll arrange a job for you. I’ll have someone contact you.”
Gladeon nodded repeatedly, mumbling to express his gratitude.
Neera’s expression remained icy. She claimed, “Don’t thank me, but thank your daughter. I wouldn’t bother about this if Aunt Adriana wasn’t constantly worrying about you.”
She left after told him that.
Gladeon’s eyes were filled with tears as he watched her silhouette gradually fade from his sight.
One mistake leads to many. His family had made a grave mistake in the past, and they had

Not long after Neera left, Marnie darted to the police station.
When she saw her husband, she burst into tears and ran over to hug him.

do As she shed her tears, she berated him furiously, “You old fool! Where have this on purpose and want us to worry sick about you? Do you know what state our family is in now? Your disappearance is just adding to our troubles. Are you trying to kill me?”
Gladeon gently patted her back to console her, saying, “That’s enough! Don’t make a scene here. People will laugh at us.”
Alfonso also showed up at the police station and thanked the police profusely.
Yet the officer gestured dismissively and said, “No need for thanks. We weren’t the ones who located
him.”
Surprised, Alfonso asked, “If not the police, then who brought him in?”
The officer responded candidly, “It was his granddaughter.”
Alfonso’s confusion deepened as he inquired, “Granddaughter? Which one?”
The officer glanced quizzically and remarked, “Who do you think? Neera. She’s the one who brought him in and reported the situation.”
Alfonso was taken aback, realizing it was Neera who had stepped in.
Mårnie cursed vehemently on the spot.
“That ungrateful girl? What kind of granddaughter acts this way? We faced bankruptcy because of her! Did she replace him? Nonsense! She can’t possibly be that kind-hearted. She must have some hidden agenda.”
The officer, slightly irritated by Marnie’s lack of appreciation, chose not to get involved in their internal disputes. He simply shot her a disapproving look and walked away.
Meanwhile, in a dimly lit alley not too far from the diner
The thug who made a hasty exit from the diner earlier was now sprawled on the ground, looking beaten and battered.
Two men, dressed in dark clothing, loomed over him, their presence alone exuding an aura of
menace.
“How dare you harass Mrs. Beauvort? You have a death wish or something?”
“Pull another stunt like this, and you won’t need a burial. I’ll send you straight to the underworld!”
The thug, eyes puffy and almost swollen shut, forcibly opened his eyes, excruciating pain was felt, all over his body.
Quaking in fear, he managed to kneel and start to plead.
Speaking through a mouth missing a couple of teeth, his speech was slurred, “I won’t do it again, I swear! I won’t do it again. Please, have mercy on me!”
He deeply regretted his actions.
Neera was oblivious to this incident. She returned to the research center after she left the police
station.
When she entered the building, Osbert approached her and asked, “Why are you here so late? Did
something happen?”
Neera shook her head and explained, “It’s nothing. I just need to take care of something.”
Then she asked worriedly, “What’s the situation with Jean? How is he doing?”
Osbert replied, “I just want to tell you about it. He woke up for a while just now.”
Neera was pleasantly surprised. Her eyes lit up as she asked, “Really?”
Osbert nodded and continued, “Yeah, but only for a few minutes before he passed out again.”
