The answer

What was mentioned about the girl's exhaustion and crying after performing Istikhara is not a sign that Allah has turned her away from the engagement. The sign is the heart turning away from the matter for which Istikhara was performed, according to the Hadith: "So turn it away from me and turn me away from it." Therefore, one should not abandon the engagement merely for that reason. One can proceed with it or repeat the Istikhara.
