This night, some people were showered with love while some people couldn't fall asleep all night.

August and Lucia were placed in the bedroom and guest room respectively. Due to the wounds on their bodies, they had to lie on their stomach in bed. After their wounds were treated by the family doctor, they could only maintain this position to spend the hardest night.

In the first half of the night, Lucia could hardly sleep because of the pain in her body, and she endured the pain all the time. In the second half of the night, she couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell asleep.

Another person who couldn't fall asleep like her was Jeanne. She was so overwhelmed with worry that she couldnt fall asleep after tossing and turning for fear that August would

The next morning, Jeanne woke up early. She immediately got up to wash, ordered her men to prepare a car, and headed to the Adams' old house.

Before arriving at the old house, she deliberately went to the nearby shopping mall to buy some expensive gifts and then rushed over.

After she rang the doorbell, a maid came over soon. After the maid heard that it was Jeanne, she reported to the master and opened the door.

As soon as Jeanne entered the door, the first person she saw was Christina, who was sitting at the dining table drinking coffee. The breakfast had just been set on the table, and it seemed that she hadn't touched it.

When Christina heard her voice, she raised her eyes and glanced at Jeanne. She stood up and greeted Jeanne with a smile, "Jeanne, long time no see. You've become even more beautiful!"

Jeanne smiled and said, "Aunt Christina, how can I be as beautiful as you? I haven't seen you for a few years, but you look younger and your skin is still so good. How have you taken care of yourself?! I'm so envious!"

Hearing Jeanne's words, Christina couldn't help smiling. She immediately asked Jeanne to sit next to her and ordered the maid to serve coffee.

"I haven't seen you for years, and I miss you very much too.

I'm so glad to see you back this time. Oh, how is your father
