Chapter 684


    “No! | waited for Lucian for six years. Why should | cancel our engagement?” Aubree protested with teary eyes, making sure to


    look at Lucian pitifully after speaking.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Lucian frowned again when he met her eyes.


    If this were a typical day, he would surely make things clear with the Pearson family.


    However, he couldn’t do so now since they got into such a big argument because of the matter.


    Meanwhile, Samuel''s anger barely dissipated when he heard Aubree’s words. He mmed the table furiously and yelled, “If you


    don’t cancel it, get out of this house! Don’te back until youe back to your senses. Get out!”


    Following that, Samuel strode out of the study with a steely face. As he passed by Lucian, he gave thetter a nod.


    With knitted brows, Lucian watched Samuel leave. In the study, Aubree continued to sob.


    Gina looked at her husband and then at her daughter. Feeling lost about who she should persuade first, she turned to Lucian in


    the end. “Lucian, uh... | don’t think Samuel will calm down anytime soon. Could you bring Aubree to your ce for a couple of


    days?”


    As if worried that Lucian would not agree, she added carefully, “I know you also have something to say about the engagement.


    After Samuel calms down, we''ll have a talk. Don’t worry. Aubree will not make trouble.”


    Aubree remained silent, still sniffling.


    Never in Lucian’s dreams did he expect to find himself in such a situation.


    Upon hearing Gina mention the engagement, he contemted for a while and finally agreed. “I got it.”


    Afterward, he looked at Aubree. “Come with me.”


    Aubree and Gina were ted to see him give in so soon, but they forced themselves to remain calm.


    Not only that, Aubree pretended to be hesitant as she stayed in her spot for some time. In the end, she slowly walked over to


    Lucian.


    “Stay with Lucian for a few days for now. I’ll talk to your dad. When he calms down, I''ll go and fetch you.” Gina appeared to be


    very concerned about her daughter. Her eyes even reddened while she spoke.


    In response, Aubree nodded tearfully.


    After giving Gina a nod, Lucian led Aubree out of the Pearson residence.


    Gina walked them out and watched the two leave in Lucian’s car.


    When the car disappeared from Gina’s sight, the bitter look on her face was reced with a smug smile.


    Samuel came downstairs just then, his countenance void of anger.


    “Have they left?” he asked, cautiously peeking outside.


    Gina nodded gleefully.


    Their n was to have Samuel kick Aubree out of the house during their fake argument. Then, they would ask Sonya for help


    and prompt thetter to send Lucian over.


    With Aubree being thrown out of the house, Lucian—no matter how unwilling he was—would have to take her in. She was no


    stranger, after all.


    To their surprise, the n went smoothly.


    Now, it was all up to Aubree.


    They could only hope that she would grab this chance to earn a spot in Lucian’s heart and officially move into his house. That


    way, she would truly be his wife.


    As Samuel and Gina pictured the day their n would seed, anticipation was written all over their faces.
