"Mignon, what's wrong with you?" Joanna stepped forward, grabbed Mignon's cold wrist worriedly and asked.
Mignon raised her head, and there was a hint of sadness in her empty eyes.
"Joanna, you've seen the newspaper, haven't you?"
The news was all about her, Egbert and Nacho. Since Joanna called her, she must have seen the contents of the newspaper.
"What happened? Why does the newspaper say that you had sex with Egbert? Mignon, if you suffered any grievance, tell me. I will definitely help you." Joanna supported Mignon and said with a worried face.
"I... had sex with Egbert. Nacho... saw it." Mignon looked at Joanna with empty eyes and said with a bitter smile.
"What happened? Did Egbert rape you? Don't be afraid! I'm going to get even with Egbert now!"
Joanna believed that Mignon would never betray Nacho and it must be Egbert who forced Mignon. Thinking of this, Joanna was so angry that she wanted to rush to Egbert and beat him to vent her anger!
Looking at Joanna's angry face, Mignon's lips trembled a little.
She shook her head sadly and said, "No... Joanna, I was drugged last night. Egbert came to save me, and then I... regarded him as Nacho."
"So... you two..." After hearing that, Joanna's heart was cold.
She had thought that it must be a misunderstanding.
If it was just a misunderstanding, she could explain to Nacho and speak for Mignon. But she could do nothing about it since it was true.
Mignon didn't speak anymore. She just looked out of the window in a daze. Her haggard face made Joanna's heart ache.
Joanna held Mignon's hand and said to her in a deep voice, "Mignon, tell me, do you still love Nacho?"
Of course Mignon loved Nacho. She had only loved Nacho in her life.
"I don't deserve him... Joanna, I don't... deserve Nacho anymore."
Mignon looked at Joanna and muttered.
"No, Nacho won't mind it. As long as we explain it to Nacho, he will understand. Nacho loves you, so he won't mind." Joanna looked at Mignon's pale face and said anxiously.
Mignon said in a weak voice as she looked at Joanna, "I want to go back, can you take me back to the Xis?"
"Okay, I'll take you back right now. Don't think too much. Everything will be fine."
Joanna nodded in a hurry, supported Mignon and left the hotel.
Mignon and Egbert's love affair in the Gather Hotel was spread in the whole city.
Everyone knew that Mignon and Egbert had had sex, and Nacho saw it.
They discussed whether Mignon and Nacho could remarry or not. The love affair of Mignon and Egbert had been a hot topic in the past two days.
In the Xis.
Amelia didn't know why this kind of thing had happened. She wanted to persuade Mignon and let her be with Nacho again, but according to the current situation, it seemed to be impossible for them to remarry.
Amelia asked for leave and accompanied Mignon every day. Mignon was in a very unstable mood. She often sat alone by the French window in a daze. Sometimes, when Amelia talked to her, she didn't even pay attention to Amelia.
Since that day, Nacho had never come to the Xis again. No one could get in touch with him. Both Cedric and Joanna were worried, but they could do nothing about it.
"Mignon, this fruit salad is very delicious. You used to like it the most. Do you want to have a try?" Squatting beside Mignon, Amelia asked in a soft voice with a bowl of salad in her hand.
Mignon just glanced at Amelia and then looked away quickly.
Looking Mignon like this, Amelia became more and more worried.
She said anxiously, "Mignon, please don't be like this. I'm so worried."
"Abigail, can you do me a favor?"
Since Mignon returned to the Xis, she had been silent. No matter if it was Cedric or Joanna who talked to her, she was like a soulless doll with a dull look in her eyes.
Abigail nodded happily when Mignon was finally willing to speak.
"Mignon, what do you want to do? I can help you with everything."
"Help me buy a ticket."
Mignon stared at Abigail with gloomy eyes and said.
Hearing what she said, Amelia got flustered immediately.
She pinched her palm and said in a hoarse voice, "Mignon... Why do you suddenly want to buy a ticket?"
Mignon looked out of the window with cold eyes, and her pale skin looked so lifeless under the sunshine.
"I want to leave here."
Perhaps, only if she left, she would not be so painful.
This was what Mignon thought in her heart.
"Mignon, don't you want Nacho anymore?" Amelia asked with tears in her eyes. Nacho loved Mignon very much, and Mignon also loved him. Why did they get to this point?
"Help me." Without answering Abigail's question, Mignon said these two words indifferently.
