章 27: The Lockes Who Are Looking For Trouble

"Okay." Jeanne agreed immediately.

She was so straightforward that it was hard to believe.

Alexander had been a little afraid of Jeanne's straightforwardness these past few days.

He always felt that the more she was like this, the more something bad would happen.

"Don't play any tricks," Jonathan threatened, "I don't want what happened seven years ago to be repeated."

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid anymore."

"Alexandar, prepare some gifts tomorrow morning and bring Jeanne and George to apologize. You absolutely can't let there be any conflicts between our families," Jonathan instructed.

Jeanne was very clear that the reason Jonathan did this was that he was worried that the Lockes would be so angry that they would break off the engagement. He must have thought that if the Lockes managed to work on MUK's project but if the marriage fell apart, it would be a huge loss for the Lawrences.
