According to initial estimates, the Nouveau Front Populaire left-wing alliance is projected to win between 172 and 192 seats in France's Assemblée Nationale, ahead of Macron's coalition (between 150 and 170) and the far-right Rassemblement National (between 132 and 152).
Okay, let me quote sources then. Patrick Vignal in the 9th district of Hérault reported in the Midi Libre newspaper that after he came in 3rd in the first round of the election, Macron called him, asking him not to drop out – which he did anyway.

Thanks for your random screenshot which omits any of the publication’s information
