"Joanna, I'm brokenhearted. What should I do?"
"I know, so am I. But now it's not time for us to be sad. If Nacho was alive, he wouldn't want to see us be so miserable, am I right?"
Amelia wiped her tears and looked at Joanna. There was a slight sorrow and grief in her eyes.
Joanna was right. They couldn't be overwhelmed by sadness because they had to live, and they had to see what would happen to Egbert and Sibyl. They must be strong.
At the same time, Alvin deliberately took Mignon to watch a movie. His friend taught him how to chase after a girl, one of which was to watch a movie with her.
Alvin deliberately came early this morning to pick up Mignon in order to bring her to watch a movie. In the past, Alvin had never known how to be romantic. But he wanted to be romantic for Mignon.
After watching the movie, Alvin took Mignon to have dinner in a very romantic French restaurant.
After they finished eating, Alvin took Mignon back. Mignon was in a good mood. Along the way, she talked with Alvin and laughed. Maybe it was because Egbert's company had been attacked by the Voidustries Company and fell into crisis, Mignon felt very happy and relaxed a lot.
After getting out of Alvin's car, Mignon thanked him, "Thank you, Alvin."
"I told you that I don't like you to thank me." Alvin frowned and said blandly while looking at Mignon.
Mignon pursed her lips, took a look at Alvin and said, "No matter what, thank you for what you have done for me."
"Have a good rest. Tomorrow I'll take you to the company to get familiar with the environment." Alvin touched her hair blandly and said.
Mignon had officially become the sales general manager of Alvin's Company. The next day was her first day to go to work.
"Okay." After took a breath and nodded.
After watching Alvin's car leave, she turned around and walked into the yard.
She called Joanna's name, but Joanna was not at home. Kerr ran out of the living room and hugged Mignon, saying, "Auntie, you're back. When I came back, I didn't see my mother and auntie Amelia."
"Joanna and Abigail are not at home? Where have they gone?" Joanna rarely went out during the holiday. Hearing Kerr's words, Mignon gulped in surprise and asked.
Kerr puckered his mouth and shook his head while looking at Mignon, "I don't know either."
"Are you hungry?" Looking at Kerr's pitiful face, Mignon pinched his tender face with amusement and said with a smile.
Kerr nodded and said, "I want to eat a cake." "I'll make a cake for you later, but you need to do your homework obediently."
"Then... how about the little brother?" After thinking for a while, Kerr said to Mignon.
"Kerr, do you want to take care of him?" Looking at Kerr lovingly, Mignon asked.
Kerr was very good to the baby and liked to look after him.
The baby seemed to like Kerr very much. Every time Kerr poked his face, he would open his eyes and take a look at Kerr.
"Yeah, I want to take care of him!" Kerr clapped his hands as he blinked his eyes and said to Mignon.
Mignon was outside for the whole day, and she didn't see the baby. Hearing Kerr mentioning the baby, she also wanted to go to the room to see the baby.
When she went in the room with Kerr, the baby had already woken up, and the wet nurse was feeding him.
Mignon was in poor health and didn't have much milk, so Alvin hired a wet nurse to take care of the baby.
Seeing Mignon coming in, the wet nurse saluted her and said, "Young madam Gu, you're here."
"How is the baby today?"
"He is very obedient, in fact, he has always been well-behaved." The wet nurse said immediately.
Holding the baby in her arms and looking at his adorable face, Mignon felt very warm in her heart. "By the way, do you know where Joanna and Abigail went?"
Mignon held the baby in her arms, glanced at the wet nurse and asked.
Hearing this, the wet nurse hesitated for a moment and said, "They seemed to have gone to the supermarket."
"When did they go out? Why haven't they come back yet?" Mignon frowned and looked a little uneasy.
Because Egbert was aiming at them and wanted to hurt them, it was reasonable for Mignon to be so disturbed.
"It's been a long time... They seemed to go out at three o'clock in the afternoon."
"Why haven't they come back yet?" Mignon muttered with her face darkened, then she heard the sound of a car coming from outside the yard.
After hearing the engine of the car, Mignon handed the baby to the wet nurse and asked her to hold him. Then she walked out of the room.
As soon as she walked out, she saw Tyrone coming in with Joanna and Amelia.
Both Joanna and Amelia looked very sombre, and their eyes were red and swollen, as if they had cried.
Seeing their teary eyes, Mignon asked with distress, "Joanna, Abigail, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Amelia bit her lip and kept shaking her head at Tyrone. "I... don't want to accept it, and I can't accept it either. Mignon has been waiting for Nacho to come back. If his dead body... is seen by Mignon, do you think she can accept his death?"
Tyrone fell into silence. He just patted Amelia's back and tried to comfort her.
"Mignon will definitely not accept the fact. She believes that Nacho is still alive. If she knows that Nacho's body has been found..."
Before Amelia could finish her words, the door of the room had been pushed open with great strength.
Standing at the door of the room, Mignon looked at Amelia and Tyrone with a pale face.
Her expression was extremely horrifying, she looked at Amelia with a twisted and mournful face.
Amelia was scared by the loud noise, she turned her head and saw Mignon standing at the door. She gulped in shock and stammered Mignon's name.
"Mignon... why... are you here?"
"Tell me, what do you mean?" Mignon stumbled and rushed to Amelia. She grabbed Amelia's shoulders and shook them hard.
"Mignon... Calm down." Amelia was frightened by the dreadful expression of Mignon, and she almost burst into tears.
"Abigail... What do you mean by that? Nacho's dead body? You said this, didn't you? Tell me, did you say this?" Mignon growled at Amelia. Her originally beautiful face looked a little twisted at the moment.
"Yes." Looking at Mignon's horrible and excited face, Amelia finally nodded.
"No... this must be fake, it couldn't be true." Amelia's eyes were filled with tears when she saw Mignon's skeptical face.
She looked at Mignon with sorrow and grief in her eyes. When Tyrone went forward, Amelia gently pushed him away.
"Mignon, I don't want to accept the fact either, but the police has found Nacho's body. If you want to see him, I'll take you there, okay?" Amelia squatted down, hugged Mignon's trembling body and said.
With her eyes wide open, Mignon stared at Amelia with tears all over her face. She pinched her palm and muttered after taking a deep breath, "Okay... Take me to see Nacho. I want to know whether that person is Nacho or not."
No matter what, Mignon didn't believe that Nacho was dead. She absolutely didn't believe that Nacho had died.
After finishing cooking, Joanna was about to go upstairs to ask them to have dinner. Then she saw Amelia going upstairs with Mignon, whose eyes were red and swollen. Joanna's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She looked at Amelia and asked her if Mignon had known something with her eyes.
Amelia nodded at Joanna, and Joanna's face turned pale in an instant.
"Mignon." Joanna's fingers were stiff as she called Mignon's name.
Mignon knew that Joanna was worried about her. She took a deep breath, looked at Joanna, and shook her head faintly, "I know, Joanna, I will be strong. I am going to the police station to identify Nacho's body now."
