Chapter 315 Compromise
Jonathan looked at her and laughed out loud. After a while, he arched his brow and smiled, "I'll make an
appointment and come to learn more about Redeur with Suecy." Till she heard that, she finally rested her anxious mind at ease. Jonathan relented, which meant that her effort
was not for nothing. Out of the racing club, lier legs still felt weak. She went back to the office and barely had
anything for lunch. She lay prone on her desk for over an hour and gradually got her spirit back. The race in
the morning made her sick for the rest of the day. Emma came back from lunch and asked her, "Lucia, are you really not going to eat anything? I have
sandwiches here. Would you like..." Lucia weakly shook her head. "It's okay. I have no appetite." Emma advised her several times, but she was determined not to eat anything. In the end, the girl had to give
up. From the elevator, a lithe figure came out with a large thermos box in her hand. Jeanne headed towards
August's office. The memories of the humiliation last night came flooding back. She gripped the handle of the
box, feeling reluctant and annoyed. By the time she reached the President's Office, however, the bad feeling
was instantly gone. She put on a smile and knocked on the door. She had thought that August would come over to coax her, but he
hadn't done anything. Fearing that it would draw them apart, she asked the maid to stew some fish soup and
came over to make peace. She would rather swallow her pride than give other women any chance. She thought to herself, felt better, and knocked again. The man's voice came out. Jeanne heaved a sigh of relief,
pushed open the door, and went in. A smile immediately appeared on her face.
"August, are you busy? I asked the chef to make some fish soup for you." August looked up from the documents. His eyes dimmed when he found it was her. He had thought she would
be mad at him for a couple of days. To his surprise, she came over so soon. Jeanne went to the sofa, put the lunchbox down, and pouted. "Come here. Fearing it would get cold, I brought it
over as soon as it was ready." August cocked his brows, hesitated for a moment, and then went over. Since Jeanne had given in, he had no
inore reason to give her attitude. Jeanne divided the fish soup, pushed one portion to him, and said excitedly.
"Have a try." August picked up the steaming soup and had a sip. His brows were unknitted a little. He liked the fish soup,
especially when he was in a bad mood. "How does it taste? Good?" Jeanne asked, her eyes twinkling.
August nodded. "Not bad."
At the very least, it was better than that cooked by Lucia. He thought of that woman unwittingly. Two seconds
later, he realized it and frowned. Unaware of it, Jeanne looked at him and blinked, "If you like it, I'll bring it over every day." "You don't have to trouble yourself." August's face softened, and he said in a gentle voice, "That's too much
work."
Jeanne blushed and lowered her head. After a while, she reached out, held onto his arm, and apologized in a
sweet voice, "August... it was really not my intention yesterday."
August paused and whispered, "It's okay." She pressed, "You're not mad anymore? August shook his head and forced a smile. "I'm not mad at all."
Relieved to hear that, Jeanne held his arm and gave a sweel smile. She looked down and saw the other bowl of
fish soup. She remchubered something and quickly said, "By the way, the other bowl is for Lucia. Call her over
to have the soup." While speaking, she observed Aurust's expression. A hint of coldness crossed his face, and then his indifferent
voice rang out. "Since you want to share with her, I can call her over."
Jeanne shook his arm and said, "We're friends! Give lier a call, or the soup will be wasted." After a moment of hesitation, August called in Burton and asked the man to call Lucia. In the office of the administration department, Lucia felt better when a notice came from Burton. Her heart
tightened. She took a deep breath and got up. As soon as she reached the President's Office, the chuckle of a
woman came out. She knocked on the door and went in. As expected, Jeanne and August were seen sitting on
the sofa.
It made her uncomfortable. They could be lovey-dovey as they liked. What was she called over for? Despite her
annoyance, she went over and asked in a soft voice, "Mr. Adams, what can I do for you?" Before August could say anything, Jeanne smiled and beckoned to hier. "Lucia, come here. I brought fish soup
