Chapter 540 I Underestimated You! 

“What happened to your legs, August?” 

Jeanne paused and then rushed forward again. She looked at August, with her tears falling like beads on a broken thread. 

“August! Your legs…” 

She reached out to take August’s hand, but he gently pushed her hand away. Jeanne squatted down and looked at his legs, 

crying and gasping, “I thought you really died… I was so heartbroken… If I hadn’t heard the news later, I think. I think I  would have gone with you…” 

Her face was much thinner than before and covered with tears, looking pitiful. However, August didn’t have any other  expressions in his wheelchair. He didn’t move as he watched her cry and then signaled to Burton to give her some  tissues. 

Seeing Jeanne wipe her tears with the tissues, he said slowly, “All right, now that you’ve seen me, just go back. This is not  the place for you to stay.” 

“No, I want to stay with you. You haven’t told me what you’ve been through these days. August, I’d like to stay and take  care of you…” 

Jeanne raised her head. As she said that, she suddenly felt something and subconsciously looked over to the side, only to find two people standing behind the shelves of flower pots on the steps further away. 

Both of them were people she knew very well. One was Olivia and the other was Lucia! When she saw Lucia, Jeanne felt like the blood was boiling in her body. 

Why… Why was Lucia here? 

Soon, she reacted and hurriedly looked at August. “August, I’ll stay and take care of you. Please don’t drive me away.. With that, she stretched out her hands, grabbed the corner of August’s clothes, and refused to let it go.
