Chapter 657
Hattie couldn’t help but feel excited. Yeah, maybe Jonathan liked her type, and Estelle just happened to be a tutor at the Lamont family, hence having an advantage
Jonathan had punished so many people, but he had let her go–maybe he really couldn’t bear to hurt her!
In the afternoon
When Yvonne was changing in her dressing room, Estelle came to help her choose the costume and jewelry for the play
Yvonne asked her assistant to leave and personally poured some juice for Estelle. Concerned, she asked, “Is your hand alright now? If you’re not feeling well, I can help you ask for leave from Mr. Mayfield”

A trace of anger appeared on Yvonne’s face. “I was talking with Hattie at lunch today, and she bragged to me that Jonathan punished everyone but didn’t do anything to her It was so annoying to listen to!”
Estelle remained calm, “Maybe it really has nothing to do with her!”
“Nothing to do with her?” Yvonne sneered, “Why would Malloy kidnap you? It’s all to make her happy! I don’t know why Jonathan let her go? Now she’s so smug and even seems to take pleasure in other people’s misfortune It’s really unfair!
Estelle said, “There’s nothing unfair about it. We’re all adults, and whoever does something should take responsibility for it!”
Seeing that Estelle was unmoved, Yvonne chuckled, “You’re right! I just saw Hattie getting too full of herself, thinking that Jonathan treated her differently It’s quite funny”
Estelle had already picked out the clothes and jewelry She looked up calmly at Yvonne, ‘It’s funny that she would brag to you about it!”
Yvonne froze, the sneer on her lips stiffening
Without looking at her again, Estelle turned and left
Yvonne’s face darkened, and she couldn’t help but laugh coldly Indeed, Estelle was different from that idiot Hattie Good, she didn’t like weak opponents anyway!
In the evening, it started raining again. Jonathan drove to pick Estelle up.
The two discussed in the car about going to Courtney’s for dinner later
Estelle laughed. The weather’s bad, and Emily probably hasn’t worked overtime. Let’s call her out too”
As she grabbed her phone, she asked, “How come we haven’t seen Mr. James lately?”
Charlie used to join Emily for dinner regularly, but recently he hadn’t been around as frequently
“Charlie’s been acting a bit differently lately, Jonathan remarked with a slight smile, raising an eyebrow to catch Estelle’s attention

“Huh?” Estelle was puzzled by his comment.
“He hasn’t mentioned having a new girlfriend, and he rarely goes to nightclubs for entertainment purposes, Jonathan explained
That’s quite unusual Estelle exclaimed, just as the call connected on the other end She turned her head and suggested, ‘Emily, are you finished with work? Let’s go out for dinner together
Emily seemed to be on the road, as there was a lot of noise in the background. “I just finished work, and my mom called me I need to go to her place first”
You go ahead, and drive safely
“Alright, you both take care too Goodbye!”
Estelle hung up the phone and turned back, “Emily’s busy, let’s just go, the two of us!”
