Chapter 281 she Was His Soft Spot

August frowned and said word byword, 'Dad, I have my arrangements tor the engagement."

Eliot said firmly, "It was up to you to make any arrangements before I came bark. But now that I'm in Atistos City, these things will naturally be arranged by me and Christina."

August's face darkened. He pursed his lips and fell silent.

He knew his father's character. His lather had always been arbitrary and stubborn. He never changed his mind. It was because of his character that his mother did not see him for the last time before she died.

Rivalling the past, August hada headache. Atter a moment, he said coldly, "I won't agree to this."

He had already agreed to get engaged to Jeanne. Wasn't it up to him to decidewhen to get engaged?

August sounded firm, and Eliot was equally firm. He snorted coldly, staredat August with sharp eyes, and said coldly, "Do you think I don’t know anything? As for how much you have been involved with that girl Lucia, I've investigated it clearly, including the operation fee that you paid to the hospital for her father every month!"

August frowned deeply, raised his eyes, and looked at Eliot. His lips moved, but he didn't make a sound. Il seemed that his father had already checked it out, and even knew that he paid for the operation fee for the Mitchell family.

"If you don't agree with my arrangement, then the surgery lee for the Mitchell family must be cut off!"

August's heart tightened. He looked up at Eliot, and he suddenly felt a little more complicated.

He knew very well what it meant to the Mitchell family if the operation lee was cut oil. Now Professor Mitchel was preparing tor the operation. The incident Iasi time had delayed it anti he couldn't afford to wait any longer. If there was another accident this time, his situation would probably get worse.

Seeing that August was silent, Eliot continued, "August, you know me. I can'I let my son's future be affected by others."
