Aurora Richardson couldn't help but feel that she had been too impulsive in canceling her engagement with Joseph Thompson this time, as if she had been deceived by a well-laid trap.
Therefore, when the old master asked her to apologize to Joseph in the morning, she hurriedly said that Joseph's mobile phone had been shut off and could not be reached.
The old master didn't believe her at first but tried to call Joseph himself and found that his phone was indeed off. Only then did he believe her.
However, after believing her, the old master immediately said that since they couldn't get in touch with Joseph, they should go to the Thompson family's house to find the Old Madam. They would explain the situation to her and say that canceling the engagement was just a hasty decision and she was willing to stand by Joseph's side during his most difficult time.
