Chapter 478 

At half past six in the evening, the chauffeur instructed by August arrived at the gate of Jeanne's villa on time 

Wearing a halter evening gown, Jeanne cut a quite dash with her head up just like a peacock. 

Once she got in the car, the chauffeur gave her a respectful nod, "Mrs. Adams, Mr. Adams will meet you at the entrance of the building for there is something coming up." 

"Maybe, I'll go to the restroom for some water." 

They arrived at the restaurant within half an hour. 

As Jeanne got off the car, she saw the man handsome waiting not far away for her. She then walked toward him with her heart beating violently. 

When Jeannet called him sweetly, August was discussing something with Burton with a solemn face. 

"August!" 

Jeannet waved at him walking. 

August hesitated, and then turned around at her and said to Burton at the same time, "Investigate it inch by inch and expand the scope of the investigation. You can also offer a substantial reward for the evidence related to it and I believe there must be someone who comes to us for the reward." 

Burton nodded. "I see." 

After that, August said no more to him and just turned to Jeanne. "Let's go." 

Jeanne was with all smiles at him. "Come on." She stretched out her hands and linked her arm with his arm. 

August frowned at her touch but he managed to restrain himself from pushing her away. Then, they went down the hall and boarded the elevator. 

There were 70 floors in the building and the Genting Restaurant was on the top floor. So they had to take the exclusive elevator there. 

There was a strange romantic atmosphere in the elevator lingering between them. Jeanne moved closer to August with a histrionic smile of great sweetness. "August, the roses, I like it very much."
