The atmosphere in the hall was obviously a little tense.
It was a stalemate.
Jeanne did not seem to have any intention of compromising.
When she did not receive an answer from Fourth Master Swan, she said very calmly, "It's late at night. I've disturbed your rest, Fourth Master. George."
George looked at Jeanne.
Jeanne stretched out her hand. "Let's go."
She said it so... naturally.
Most importantly...
George really walked toward Jeanne. Jeanne held George's hand and was about to leave right under the noses of Edward and Nox.
Nox could not understand Fourth Master Swan.
He had spent so much effort to get Ms. Lawrence to come back, and yet he was just going to watch her leave right under his nose…
"Ms. Lawrence," Edward suddenly called out to Jeanne.
Nox knew that Fourth Master Swan had never been an easy person to talk to.
Jeanne's heart moved slightly.
She knew it.
