Chapter 836 Scapegoat

Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is powered off...1 Hearing the mechanized female voice, Lucia released her grip on the phone, and it fell to the floor with a snap.

Since August had disappeared, the two children had never turned off their mobile phones and always carried power banks because they did not want Lucia to worry about them.

So, the two people in the office immediately thought something must have happened to Janet!

In an unknown restaurant in the south of the city, while Janet was elegantly enjoying the delicious food, she looked at the man opposite from time to time. August maintained an indifferent face all the time. But when he saw her cute face, there was occasionally a touch of gentleness in his eyes.

After finishing eating, Janet gently wiped her lips and reminded him loudly, saying, "My mother will come and fight you to death later."

'Maybe she will just accuse you of being obedient.'
