Chapter 279 Our Engagement May Not Happen

 

When Jeanne arrived at the Adams' old house, she saw Christina silting on the sofa as soon as she walked in.

Seeing Jeanne, Christina smiled and stood up Io say hello, "Jeanne, hello!"

Jeanne immediately stepped forward with a smile on her face and said, "Aunt Christina, I made tonic soup, especially for August at home today."

Christina’s face changed when she heard it and said, "August..."

Jeanne's heart tightened, and she quickly asked, "What happened to him?"

Christina sighed softly and said, "He left. He's not at home."

"What?" Jeanne's eyes widened, "Isn’t he still injured?"

"Well, Eliot asked that girl Lucia to leave our family and go to the hospital to recuperate. He was doing it for her good, but somehow the news got to August, and he thought we were mean to her. He got angry and left home.’1

She glanced at Jeanne's pale face, and continued, "lie probably went to find that secretary girl. Anyway, he didn’t answer the phone, and there was no news of him. I’m so worried!"

Jeanne's lips moved, and she forcibly maintained her calmness.

She gritted her teeth and forced a smile, "August didn't answer my call. Is he mad at me too?"

Christina pretended to be surprised, "How come? You are his girlfriend. Why wouldn’t he contact you at this time?"

Suddenly, Jeanne's face became even gloomier. After a moment, her eyes turned red and she sounded a bit aggrieved, "Aunt Christina, do you think August doesn't want me anymore? He has I been very close to that secretary recently. I know their previous relationship. But since they broke up, why are they still attached?"

As she spoke, her tears kept falling. Christina didn't know what to say when she saw her crying.
