Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 814

Chapter 814

At this point, everyone started to mingle and shake hands with Zack, the atmosphere becoming livelier.

Carson called over a few hostesses. Despite Zack’s rare visits to bustling places like this, he remained unfazed in the face of their toasts and flirtations, handling them with ease. His cold-heartedness and toughness both frightened and fascinated the hostesses who were all trying their best to get close to him.

Once, Estelle went to the restroom, and when she came out, she saw Zack leaning against the corridor.

Under the dim light, Zack was staring intently at Estelle, and in a cold tone, he asked, “Ms. Macclain, have we met before?”

Emerging from the darkness, Estelle replied nonchalantly, “Really? I don’t remember.”

“Ms. Macclain, have you been to Blackcrystal?” Zack continued to watch her like a hawk, not missing any hint of emotion on her face.

Blackcrystal was a small coastal country in the southeast of the delta, where various powers were entrenched all year round due to its geographical location. “I’ve never been there, Estelle replied, her face expressionless.

“But I think I’ve seen you there.” Zack leaned against the wall, his body tilted forward, radiating an aggressive aura.

“Ella!”

Someone called her.

Estelle looked up and saw Jonathan striding over.

Jonathan, oozing a cool aura, protectively took Estelle’s hand and gently led her behind him. He turned to Zack and introduced, “I forgot to tell Mr. Zack, Estelle is my girlfriend.”

Zack straightened up, his gaze sweeping over Estelle, and flashed a grin. “I just thought Ms. Macclain looked familiar, like I’d seen her somewhere before, so I wanted to ask.”

“Estelle is still a student; she’s always been in J City.” Jonathan’s voice was cold, carrying a hint of annoyance, apparently disliking the way Zack was looking at Estelle.

Zack nodded, “Then it seems I’ve mistaken her for someone else, my apologies.” And with that, he turned and walked away.

Jonathan watched Zack’s retreating figure with icy eyes. When he turned back, any trace of hostility had disappeared. He gently touched Estelle’s face, asking, “Didn’t scare you, did he?”
