Chapter 127 

“It’s such a rare sight to see Mrs. Newman lack confidence in herself,” Lucas‘ mouth curved. 

“How could this be the same? Also, she called you‘ principal‘. Does it mean you two are not together yet? What’s the situation now…” 

Lilian said apologetically on the phone, “I’m sorry, Miss Vallois. I have something to tend to at the moment, and we might need to change the dinner to another day. Have you arrived at the place?” 

Anne did not want to put her in a difficult position. After all, everyone would have encountered urgent matters. Thus, she said, “I haven’t arrived yet. It doesn’t matter, you go take care of your things, don’t worry about me.”
