Bennett froze.
“Additionally,” Jonathan’s tone turned even colder, “Stop throwing around the name Estelle KING, flaunting it as if it
were your own. If I find out, the Macclain family might not be able to handle the consequences. Estelle is off-limits

Jonathan’s eyes narrowed, “Antonia?”

Macclain to design a dress, and when Ms. Macclain refused, Antonia threatened her. We’re not sure if the online
incident has anything to do with her.”
Jonathan’s face turned cold.
