Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28

Estelle thought that he must have done it on purpose, trying to make her regret and feel disappointed, just as a way to teach and punish her.

But thinking about it, she was the one who had made mistakes, and it was already nice of Jonathan not to fire her and not even to contemplate the idea of firing her.

Jonathan watched as the girl’s expression slowly changed from frustration to calm, and even a hint of happiness. He couldn’t help but smirk again, starting the car, “Shall I take you back to school?”

Estelle’s mood was back to normal, “Sure.”

Half an hour later, a Bentley stopped at the entrance of the University of J City. Estelle prepared to get out of the car and chuckled, “Thank you, Mr. Lamont.”

“No need to thank me!” the man said indifferently, “I should thank you for only pretending to be my wife rather than my mother!”

Estelle laughed awkwardly, “You’re welcome too!”

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but Henson didn’t agree.

Seeing her flushed cheeks, the man didn’t tease her any further, “Be careful when opening the door.”

“Yes, you drive safely too.”

As Estelle got out of the car and headed straight for the school gate, Jonathan watched her slender figure. He didn’t leave until she had entered the school.

On that night, Henson approached her to play a game, subtly trying to find out what his uncle said to Estelle after he left, and whether he had vented his anger on her.

Estelle didn’t say anything, seeming to swallow all the grievances alone and bear everything by herself.

As expected, Henson became restless and not only gave her lots of equipment but also protected her all night, taking a lot of damage himself.
