Estelle shook her head, “Nope.”
“I was just pulling your leg!” Janice replied with a gentle laugh, “You guys go ahead. Henson can’t wait to see you.”
Estelle smiled and nodded, “Alright.”
As they climbed the stairs, Estelle asked Jonathan, “I haven’t messed up, have 1?”
She liked Cathrine and Janice, but to fit into a new family, she might need some time.
“No way!” Jonathan squeezed her hand, “Just be yourself. That’s what matters, Happiness was key.”
Jonathan paused and cradled Estelle’s face, “Trust me, I’ll give you a life of ease. You won’t have to go against your
heart or worry about people’s stares. You’ve always lived freely, and I won’t let marriage to me change that.”

feel out of place and unsure how to respond to their warmth.”
Jonathan chuckled, “You don’t need to respond. Just accept.”
Estelle thought momentarily, then nodded slowly, “Got it.”
Approached by a servant on the stairs, Estelle brushed past him, “I’m off to give Henson his lesson!”
“Alright.” Jonathan leaned down and gave her a peck on the cheek, “Off you go.
Entering Henson’s room for his lesson, Estelle expected Henson to rush up to her, excited and accusing her of
hiding things from him.
But no, Henson was just sitting on his couch as usual, playing games. On seeing her, he calmly said, “There’s an
autograph card on the table. Go sign it.”
A little nervous, Estelle picked up the card without a word, not daring to ask who wanted her autograph.
As she was about to sign, Estelle looked back and asked, “Should I sign as KING or use my real name?”
Henson gave her a disdainful look, “What good was your real name? This wasn’t a parent–teacher meeting!”
Estelle, at a loss for words, could only sign as KING.
Henson stood up, examined the autograph, and nodded, “Not bad.”
Only then did Estelle ask, “Who’s this for?”
“My desk–mate. She’s a fan of KING and wanted her autograph. She didn’t believe me when I said I could get it,”
Henson replied. Then he added, “To be honest, I didn’t believe it myself. You hid it so well!”
Estelle laughed, “I wasn’t intentionally hiding it from you. I just thought whether or not I was KING didn’t affect our
relationship. Even Jonathan didn’t

Henson frowned and didn’t respond.
Estelle continued, “Any other classmates fans of mine? I can sign a few more for you.”
Henson laughed and playfully tickled her, “Everyone knew but me! I was so excited to tell Hans, but he said he
already knew!”
Estelle, ticklish and backing away, tried to explain between laughs, “There’s a reason he knew, really!”
Henson paused, “I’m not as forgiving as my uncle. If you hide things from me again, I’ll.”
“You’ll do what?” Estelle asked, still laughing.
“I’ll flunk my next test on purpose. See if that embarrasses you!”
“I wonder who’d be more embarrassed!”
“You dare to argue with me!” Henson exclaimed, pretending to be angry.
“Of course not! I’m the teacher, and I’d be more embarrassed!” Estelle laughed till she was teary–eyed.
Henson grunted and took a box out of his drawer, “Here’s a gift from Hans and me.”
