Chapter 308 Exchange Rings But Lucia felt depressed as if a stone was pressing against her heart, having difficulty breathing.

Such a scene made her uncomfortable.

August and Jeanne walked around the venue and then returned to the front.

Soon, the engagement ceremony began.

When the guests were taking their seats, Lucia also sat down in a corner.

According to the process sheet, August and Jeanne would give a speech and then exchange engagement rings.

And their parents would give them blessings in the end.

Staring at the man on the stage and listening to him talk about what had happened between him and Jeanne, Lucia felt the dull pain in her heart become stronger.

She thought she shouldn't have come here because it was torturous for her to watch them together.

Soon, it was Jeanne's turn to speak.

She took over the microphone, glanced at the man beside her, smiled, and said with sweetness in her eyes, "Everyone, thank you very much for making time out of your busy schedules to attend our engagement ceremony.

I guess you should all know that we are childhood sweethearts.

We have known each other since childhood, and he has accompanied me for most of my life..."

She talked about the things from their childhood to the present with red eyes, and when she expressed her love for August, her voice was choked up with emotions.

After she finished speaking, everyone in the audience clapped, and the atmosphere was warm.

Lucia took a deep breath and bowed her head in frustration, feeling jealous.

Suddenly, someone sat next to her.

Before she could raise her head, she heard a familiar male voice say, "Hi, Lucia."

When she looked up and saw Paul, she asked, "Paul, why are you here?"

Paul looked as gentle as usual and said softly, "Il came here because I received the invitation."

Lucia nodded, tried her best to force a smile, and said, "They have invited all the important people in Austos City to the engagement ceremony.

I should not have felt surprised to see you here."
