Frowning, Joseph glanced at Rylee and then turned to Andrea, “Andrea Carroll, stop this nonsense! You won’t be let off if you dare to spread such rumors again!”
Andrea bit her lips with a slight trembling taking hold of her body.
Was it real?
Was it real what Andrea just said?
Did Manfred really agree to the engagement with Caroline?
Impossible!
It was definitely impossible!
Manfred clearly told her that he would not be with Caroline, that he would definitely not be engaged to Caroline, that his beloved one was her!
Andrea snorted and said fiercely, “We the whole family, except for her, already know the news! If I lie a little, let a car kill me now!”
At the words, she ran out of the canteen.
Rylee was transfixed with her eyes greatly widened.
Joseph gave Rylee a gentle nudge and asked, “Are you all right? You look sick.”
Rylee weakly fell to a chair with the support of Joseph’s arm. She signed disappointedly, “Will Manfred be engaged to her?”
Joseph would have said something bad of Manfred to comfort Rylee, but noticing that she looked pale, he was too afraid to hurt her to say anything.
Rylee was so confused and sad that she could not even take a single bite of the food brought back by Joseph.
Only after Joseph coxed her hard did she take a few mouthfuls of rice.
At the bottom of her heart cried a voice loudly, “Manfred lied to me!”
No! It couldn’t be!
How could he lie to her?
He had always been so tending to her like a gleam of sunshine covering her with a precious warmth in that cold and ruthless home.
She treated him as her mum, who gave her a sense of kinship that she had not felt for a long time.
Her mother had already left her alone. Was it that, now, he, the man who gave her the same kind of motherly warmth, was going to leave her too?
Rylee felt miserable.
When receiving the special interview and photos of Kenneth Keith, the teacher became overwhelmingly excited and gave Rylee tremendous praise while Rylee still showed an indifferent and pale face.
Even after Rylee left the office, the teacher was still excited.
Rylee really didn’t know where to go. She took out her phone and wanted to call Manfred to question the authenticity of the news, but she lacked the courage.
Who was she to him?
