HONEY, Love Me One More Time novel Chapter 152

Estelle shook her head and said, “I was just asking. You don’t need to change the perfume. I can recognize you with this smell.”
Mr. Mysterious smiled and said, “What if others also wear this cologne? Will you mistake someone else for me?”
“I won’t. For example, although Justin tried to pretend to be you, and his speech and manners are similar to yours, I have a strong feeling from the very beginning that you two are different,” Estelle said gently. “But some coincidences before made me mistakenly think that he is you.”
As soon as she finished her words, she heard Mr. Mysterious’ breath become quicker. She could feel that he was a little nervous.
“Estelle, I’m sorry.” Mr. Mysterious said, “I will tell you everything you want to know after I finish dealing with everything.”
He had said this countless times, and Estelle had heard it countless times.
But now, hearing this again, Estelle was calmer than before. 
The feeling of security and peace of mind that Mr. Mysterious offered made her not so eager to know about his identity. And she was delighted with her current life.
At this time, her phone rang.
Estelle couldn’t see the caller ID and directly answered the phone. “Hello?”
“Estelle, could you come back to our home now?” Aurora’s voice came from the other end of the line.
“Mom?” Estelle was surprised. “You’re at home? Shouldn’t you be in the hospital? Who took you back home? Is it York or Melody? What happened?”
Aurora tried to hold back her tears and sobbed, “It’s hard to explain in a few words. Estelle, is it convenient for you to come back now? If you are busy, then forget it. I’ll think about what to do first.”
“I’m not busy,” Estelle immediately said. “I’ll go back now.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Estelle felt restless.
“What happened?” Mr. Mysterious asked. 
Estelle said with a guilty look, “Sir, I’m sorry that I can’t have dinner with you. York and Melody took my mother back home. I’m afraid that they will harm my mother. I must go home now.”
Mr. Mysterious nodded slightly and hesitantly said, “I’ll drive you there.”
“But you...” Your identity will be exposed if you go with me.”
Knowing what she was worried about, Mr. Mysterious said, “I’ll drive you to the osmanthus tree at the gate of your house. Then you go back home alone. But don’t worry. I’ll be waiting for you nearby. Call me at any time if you need me.”
At this moment, Estelle’s mind was a mess. Thinking about Aurora’s sobbing tone on the phone, she became increasingly anxious.
‘What on earth do York and Melody want to do?’
‘They went to the hospital and made a scene in my ward when Cristofer disinvested from the company. This time, they took my mom back home regardless of her health. What the hell do they want to do?’
On the way back home, there were countless times that she wanted to take off the cloth covering her eyes. But finally, she restrained herself from doing so.
Seeing her like this, Mr. Mysterious sighed slightly and said, “Estelle, don’t worry. Calm down.”
Estelle nodded and said, “I know I should calm down, but I can’t. I’m afraid that York and Melody will hurt my mother again.”
“They won’t dare to do that. You still have a half share in the Hudson Group. They won’t act recklessly. I guess your mother asked you to go home for something else.”
“But they have no other reason to contact my mother,” Estelle anxiously responded.
Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the gate of the Hudson’s House.
It was the blooming season of the osmanthuses, and the air was filled with a sweet scent.
When the car stopped, Estelle opened the door and exited the car in a hurry.
She removed the cloth from her eyes and ran towards the villa without looking back.
At the same time, the living room of the villa was silent.
Gretchen was nestling in Melody’s arms, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying while York was smoking on the couch.
Sitting on the small sofa beside him, Aurora was at a loss and crying silently.
In addition to them, an old man with gray hair was in the living room. He seemed to be over eighty years old but was hale and hearty. And there was a serious expression on his face.
The moment Estelle came in, tears dropped out of Aurora’s eyes. “Estelle...”
Estelle walked over quickly and asked, “Mom, what happened?”
Aurora pointed at Gretchen and said, “Gretchen... is pregnant.”
Estelle turned her head and saw Gretchen crying in Melody’s arms.
“Estelle, you’re finally back. This is Cristofer's grandfather. You can call him Grandpa Gary,” Melody said. 
Cristofer's grandfather? Estelle was somewhat surprised. In her memory, she had met Gary several times.
Gary was the founder of the Hans Group. Many years ago, he retired and handed over the business to Cristofer's father. 
And six years ago, Cristofer's father handed over the business to Cristofer.
In Estelle’s impression, Gary was a decent and upright person. And he loved Cristofer dearly.
‘What do York and Melody want to do by asking Grandpa Gary to come here?’
“Hello, Grandpa Gary,” Estelle greeted Gary politely.
Melody continued before Gary could say anything, “Old Mr. Hans, this is Estelle, Cristofer's ex-wife. And the car accident of your son and daughter-in-law was...”
Speaking of this, she paused on purpose and looked at Estelle meaningfully.
Hearing this, Gary tapped his crutches against the floor with a sullen look and snorted. “Why don’t you go on?”
Melody explained with a smile, “I was just guessing. There is still no final conclusion on the truth of the car accident, and Estelle might be wrongly accused.”
“Stop pretending,” Gary interrupted her and said coldly. “I’m old, but I’m not stupid. Do you think I don’t know what you meant?”
“Old Mr. Hans, what do you mean?” Melody said as her face changed in an instant. 
“You know what I mean. And you know clearly whether the car accident has anything to do with Estelle,” Gary said.
When York heard this, his face darkened immediately, and he said, “Old Mr. Hans, we respect you, so we invited you here today. And the reason why we invited you here today is not to talk about the car accident. Now the situation is that my daughter is pregnant with the child of your dear grandson. You’d better deal with this.”
“I can’t do anything about it,” Gary said carelessly.
“Old Mr. Hans, how could you say such words? Gretchen is pregnant with your great-grandchild! The reporters photographed Gretchen and Cristofer when they went shopping, and now everyone in Hadale knows they are a couple. Do you have the heart to let your great-grandchild be an illegitimate child?” Melody quickly retorted.
