Chapter 256 Making Her Feel Guilty

When Lucia raised her head, she happened to meet Jeanne's eyes.

Both of them kept silent, but they seemed to have read each other's mind by eye contract.

Lucia looked away first, and when she thought of what had happened last night, she couldn't help feeling troubled.

Lucia took a deep breath and continued, "I swear there is nothing between us.

I'm sorry that I forgot about President Adams's status and ignored your relationship with him."

Now, she could only take all the blame.

Otherwise, August and Jeanne might have a quarrel because of her.
