Chapter 682
That same night, Sonya was preparing to go to bed when Gina called her.
Right after she picked up the call, she heard Gina sniffling from the other end of the line and Samuel’s shouts in the background.
“Gina, what’s wrong? Did you argue with Samuel?” Sonya asked out of concern.sá´‡aʀᴄh thá´‡ FindNøvá´‡l.ná´‡t website on Gøøglá´‡ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Gina looked at the father-daughter duo, who was acting at the side. Then, she took a deep breath and choked out, “Samuel is angry at Aubree. I think you should hurry and come over. Aubree won’t listen to any of us right now, but maybe you can get through to her.”
Sonya frowned and listened carefully. Indeed, she could hear Aubree’s sobs in the background.
Because of the car accident before, Sonya was very considerate toward Aubree. Upon hearing the latter crying, she felt her heart clench. “Calm down and talk to me properly. What happened? What made them so worked up?”
“It’s all because of…” Gina stopped her sentence midway as if she was reluctant to speak. She then sighed loudly and continued, “You should just come over.”
Anxious, Sonya questioned, “Why are you keeping things from me? Aubree will become my daughter-in-law sooner or later. You can tell me everything.”
Gina paused for a few seconds before saying bitterly, “It’s because of her engagement with Lucian. Samuel thinks that Aubree should just cancel the engagement and let Lucian go since he doesn’t seem to like her, but Aubree won’t listen. She even claimed that she’d marry no one else but Lucian. That’s how they started arguing.”
Gina’s story sounded so convincing that it made Sonya feel apologetic.
In the end, Lucian was at fault here. Not only did he make Aubree wait for so many years, but he also left her hanging and disregarded her feelings for him.
After finding out that Aubree even had a disagreement with Samuel because of this matter, Sonya was more determined to give her fair treatment.
“Aubree is right. I also object to canceling the engagement. She has waited for Lucian for so many years. Of course, he has to take responsibility for her. Gina, calm them down first. I’ll ask Lucian to go there If all else fails, Aubree can stay in our house for a couple of days so she and her father can cool off.”
Right after Sonya said that, she heard the muffled sound of something falling to the ground on the other end.
Her heart instantly sank, and she couldn’t help but worry for Aubree.
It seemed like Gina was also surprised. It was only after a moment of silence that she answered, “I… I’ll try.”
After hanging up the phone, Sonya called Lucian immediately.
At the Farwell residence, Lucian had just tucked Estella in and walked out of her room when his phone rang. Upon seeing the caller ID and recalling how Sonya had recently been so insistent about him marrying Aubree, he rubbed his temples. He only answered the phone after a few more rings.
Right away, Sonya’s voice sounded in his ears. “Aubree had an argument with her father. I’m not sure what’s going on now, but you should go and check.”
Lucian frowned at that. “That’s their business. It’s not appropriate for me to go there.”
“Aubree went against her father because of you. Do you expect me to go there instead at this time of night? Besides, it sounded like he was being violent. I won’t be able to stop him if I go there. You should go there, at least for the sake of Aubree’s safety. She has just recovered, so she can’t afford to get hurt again!” Sonya
chided.
