SWNOVELS Chapter 482
Chapter 482 Now or Never
At once. Jeanne's chest heaved up and down in anger She didn't know what to say
This morning. August had already sent her a divorce agreement, but she didn't sign it She was so angry that she fore the agreement apart. What she didn't expect was that August would send another in the early afternoon!
She gritted her teeth and looked at the servant who brought her the papers outside the door, but she was even more furious She screw the agreement into a ball and threw it at the servant's face and shouted angrily, "Get lost! Get out of my sight"
The servant was shocked and ran away in a panic, Jeanne stood in the same place, annoyed and angry, but a moment later, tears came out of her eyes.
It seemed that this time, August was determined to divorce her. Before the divorce agreement was signed, he had already
impatiently announced the news of their divorce on social media, and then sent someone to deliver the divorce agreement to her again and again,
Jeanne turned back to her room and slammed the door hard, thinking about what Mark had said on the phone yesterday, her heart became more and more nervous.
She knew that August's patience was limited, if he repeatedly sent documents, and she refused to sign them, she was afraid that he might hand over the evidence of her hitting someone in the car to the police. In that case, she would lose everything.
Jeanne gritted her teeth, turned around and walked to the door, opened the door, picked up the crumpled divorce agreement on the floor, unfolded the document, smoothed it out, and when she saw the black and white letters, she was even more overwhelmed.
She didn't want to sign it, and she didn't want to be divorced, but now she had been forced into a desperate situation and had no choice.
Suddenly, she had a flash of light and thought of something.
Perhaps, she still had a chance! Even if August knew that she did those things, but she and he still knew each other for more than 10 years. There was no way that he wouldn't care about her.
In the past, she used to slit her wrists to save August's feelings for her, and this time, she could still give it a go!
Ten minutes later, she set the camera on the table, and started the video recording. She took a deep breath and pressed the
start button. "August, I've thought it over, I'm willing to sign the divorce agreement, and I'm willing to bear the mistakes! made, but without you in my life, there's only darkness left. I don't want to stay in this world anymore..."
After recording touching "heartfelt" words, she picked up the pre-prepared knife on the table next to her, and aimed it at her wrist. Then, she slit her wrist.
Instantly, there was a blood mark on the white wrist, blood oozed out. Jeanne frowned, looked up at the camera, took a deep breath. "August, I really love you, if not in this life, then in the next life, I definitely want to stay by your side.
After recording the video, she picked up the prepared gauze and wrapped it around her wrist, then immediately sent the video to August.
It was now or never. Even if it would add a few injuries to her body, as long as it was able to make August be back by her side, everything was worth it.
Unexpectedly, blood continuously oozed out and Jeanne found that she couldn't stop the bleeding. She wanted to get the servant to call the ambulance for her, but as soon as she reached the door, she blacked out and fell to the floor.
Soon, an ambulance arrived and took away Jeanne, who had lost too much blood. Soon, gossip spread.
When August learned of the news, it was already the afternoon when he was about to leave work. "President Adams, Jeanne slit her wrist and has now been sent to the Central Hospital
Mark walked up to him, reported the situation in a low voice, and used the tablet to show the relevant news and handed it to August to read
August frowned slightly, reached out to take it, flipped through it a few times, and said coldly. "They are all exaggerated and false reports.”
Burton said slowly, "But Jeanne was really sent to the Central Hospital.”
August frowned. "When was she sent there?"
"Three o'clock in the afternoon.”
After hearing those words, August suddenly thought of something. He furrowed his brows, reached out his hand to pick up the phone on the desktop and flipped out the message Jeanne sent him.
In the afternoon, Jeanne did send him a video, but he did not click on it to watch it.
He quickly clicked the video on, and Jeanne's voice came out. "August, I've already thought about it, I'm willing to sign the divorce agreement..."
The more he watched, the more sullen his face became
He didn't expect that in the end, Jeanne would still want to use this trick to win him back!
In the beginning, she used the trick of slitting her wrists to speed up the marriage, and now she wanted to use this trick so that August wouldn't divorce her. There was no way that August would fall for the same trick twice.
Burton's voice came. "President Adams, do you want to go to the Central Hospital?"
"No need."
He had just announced his divorce from Jeanne, wouldn't rushing to the hospital at this time give her hope? The only way to solve such a problem was to be ruthless.
"Then what about the Kelly family..."
August said coldly, "Let's wait and see.”
The Kelly family was no pushover. If they learned that he and Jeanne were divorced, they would definitely make a fuss.
August had already thought of this from the beginning, and also made preparations in advance. Therefore, August did not show up from the beginning to the end.
The media paparazzi who were running around for the heat did their duty. They were guarding the hospital entrance, taking pictures of the Kelly family rushing to the hospital and breaking the news, basically confirming that something had really happened to Jeanne.
As a result, there were a lot of speculations on the internet about Jeanne's sudden admission to the hospital. Most people thought that it was because of marital problems, excessive grief, or suicide. Even Lucia, who had been staying at home, saw all kinds of news tweets. For a whole day, she was worried, not about Jeanne, but about whether August had direct evidence to prove the perpetrator or not.
On that day, she called August several times, but he did not answer.
In the end, Lucia finally couldn't sit back anymore and found an excuse to tell Elisa. Then she got up and left West Bridge and went directly to August's personal apartment.
She found out about his whereabouts from Burton.
It used to be the small apartment he rented to her. Lucia didn't expect that after five years, August would still be living there. Entering the neighborhood, the road was full of familiar and unfamiliar scenes, and Lucia was in a complicated mood. It was as if time had shifted and the years had gone back to five years ago.
She took a deep breath, walked out of the elevator, adjusted her state, then walked towards the familiar door and pressed the doorbell.
"Ding dong!"
After the doorbell rang twice, the door suddenly clicked and was pushed open from the inside. August appeared in the doorway, and when he saw Lucia, surprise flashed in his eyes.
