Chapter 117


    Chapter 117 Inside the President’s Office. Jeanne aggrievedly took August’s hand, her eyes red,


    "August, I really don’t want to leave you..."


    August patiently persuaded, "Listen, Jeanne, go back to the hospital and you need more rest now."


    Jeanne looked at August and her nose twitched as she reached out to wrap her arms around his waist,


    "You muste to see me tomorrow." heard it’s Greeves birthday this Sunday.


    Can you take me with you?" "No,"


    August’s face went somber, "Who told you that?" Recently he deliberately instructed those who took


    care of Jeanne to keep their mouths shut and just take good care of her, but she still knew about it. "My


    dad told me..."


    On hearing this, August frowned slightly, and a few cold lights appeared under on the surface, he was


    struggling secretly in his heart.


    After a few seconds, he said in a deep voice, "No, Jeanne, you go back and get some rest." Seeing his


    attitude go cold, Jeanne was filled with regret.


    She shouldn’t have mentioned her dad in front of him! Biting her lips, Jeanne knew it was time to leave


    and finally let go After sending Jeanne out of the office and watching her leave led by the maid, August


    sighed in raised his hand and pressed thendline number, calling Burton. "Mr.Adams, what can I do


    for you?" August dropped his eyes, casually ying with a pen, and asked softly, "Martin has been to


    the hospital in thest few days?" Burton truthfully reported, "He’s been to the hospital twice in thest


    two days but before the surgery, he hadn’t been there, and only Mrs.Kelly went asionally." Snap!


    August pressed the pen under his hand at once, knitting his dashing brows. Martin, like a cunning old


    fox, never did anything useless.


    When Jeanne was seriously ill and the Kelly family could not find the right kidney, Martin even gave up


    treating his daughter.


    Now after he had helped Jeanne contact a doctor, find the right kidney, and do the surgery


    sessfully, he showed up How could he not be clear about his intentions? August said coolly,


    "Transfer Jeanne to another hospital in a few days." Hearing that, Burton said, "Okay August took a


    deep breath and made up his mind that he would never let Jeanne be Martin’s puppet, and that


    he would settle the score with Martinter Throughout the afternoon, Lucia was distracted, and her


    mind always came back to the scene of August and Jeanne together. Soon it was time to leave work.


    Lucia looked at her watch and saw that she still had half an hour before her appointment with August


    August should not be able to go to the appointment today? He must be with Jeanne at this time Lucia’s


    heart was blocked and she took a deep breath.


    Seeing that the time was getting closer to the appointment, she gritted her teeth, grabbed her bag, and


    walked away. If she knew that Jeanne and he were together at this time and still deliberately went to


    the appointment, she would be too insensitive And as soon as she saw Jeanne’s bright and clear eyes,


    she couldn’t help but feel guilty in her heart.


    After all, ording to the time, she was the third party S On the way home, she sat on the subway


    seat, checking her phone now and then It was past six o’clock, but she hadn’t received a single text


    message or call from August.


    It seemed that he was really busy, so it was right that she didn’t go looking for him. When she returned


    home in a daze, Lucia had little appetite, so she made some porridge and drank it hastily.


    She picked up the bowl, went to the kitchen sink, and washed while rxing Although it was true that


    she was free after moving out of home, she was really lonely living alone.


    At this time, she missed Mrs.Mitchell’s nagging When Lucia turned her head and nced at the clock


    on the wall, she found that it was already after seven o’clock.


    At this time, August shall be having dinner with Jeanne. As the image emerged in her mind, Lucia


    gritted her teeth, and a trace of bitterness followed in her heart Why was she so sensitive about August


    and Jeanne being together? She couldn’t even help but think of them again and again. Lucia couldn’t


    understand, and when she was lost in thought, the small bowl slipped from her hands and fell directly


    into the sink.


    The sharp sound of "pop"


    instantly pulled her back from her world. Looking at the pieces in the sink, Lucia frowned and wanted to


    cry, because this was the cherry bowl she got from the store, and she didn’t expect it to break like this!


    Sure enough, she was so unlucky! With a feeling of grievance emerging in her heart, Lucias nose


    turned sour and tears really welled up.


    She *Dingdong Lucia, in tears silently, froze in shock when she suddenly heard the sound She couldn’t


    have heard it wrong? How could someone ring the doorbell at this hour? "Dingdong...


    After the doorbell rang again, Lucia came to her senses.


    She hurriedly washed her hands, wiped her tears and walked quickly towards the door With the corners


    of her eyes slightly moist, her open the door.


    As soon as the door was pulled open, Lucia froze when she got a good look at the person standing


    outside the door. August...


    What was he doing here? Lucia gritted her teeth, a hint of stubbornness emerging from her slightly red


    eyes.


    She pretended to be calm and asked back, "What are you doing here?"


    "You tell me."


    August frowned and his gaze was clear and cold as he looked at her.


    He had been waiting for her in the underground garage for almost an hour, but she didn’te! Lucia


    averted her gaze, blocking the doorway and not letting him in.

    Watching the corners of her eyes reflecting slightly and her nose a little red, August finally noticed


    something strange.


    With a hint of fluctuation under his eyes, he asked, "Why are you crying?"


    Lucia subconsciously denied, "I’m not crying."


    She didn’t expect to be discovered by him.


    Without waiting for her to react, she was suddenly held by the wrist and pulled into the house "You..."


    Lucia didn’t finish her sentence before the door was mmed shut behind August She gasped, "You’re


    trespassing!"


    Without saying a word, August stepped forward and directly approached her and asked, "Say, why are


    you crying?"


    Looking at her with red eyes, he was distracted.


    "I "


    Lucia subconsciously swept a nce in the direction of the kitchen, and no longer speak. in the sink,


    then he understood instantly. an eyebrow, asking with some amusement, "Aren’t you crying for this?"


    He remembered Lucia was not so weak.
