Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 1495

Chapter 1495 

Cathrine got up, smiling at them, “Welcome, Mrs. Macclain!” 

Simone seemed a bit nervous, “Hello, Mrs. Lamont.” 

She put her arm around Carmella’s shoulder, laughing warmly, “This is my daughter, Carmella!* 

Cathrine smiled and nodded, “I’ve seen her on TV, but she’s even more beautiful in person!” 

Carmella shyly greeted Cathrine. 

Cathrine invited them to sit and had the servants bring coffee and snacks. Simone sat slightly sideways, a warm humble smile on her face, “We held a small celebration for Carmella a few days ago, just to encourage her, without any publicity. I didn’t expect Mr. Lamont to attend, so I brought Carmella to say thank you today. This little gift is just a token of our appreciation, hope you like it.” 

Simone slightly pushed the gifts forward. The gifts included a silk scarf, a necklace from GK Jewelry studio, two boxes of high–quality truffles, and a bottle of red wine. It was clear that Simone had put a lot of thought into these gifts. 

Cathrine smiled lightly, “You’re too polite!” 

Simone laughed, “I heard your granddaughter is about Carmella’s age, so Carmella picked out this necklace especially for Ms. Lamont!” 

“You’re too kind!” Cathrine laughed elegantly. 

“It’s our pleasure!” Simone smiled gracefully, then asked, “Is Mr. Lamont not at home this weekend?“. 

Cathrine replied, “Jonathan just got home, he’s upstairs talking with his dad. Norah had to work part–time, so she left early in the morning.” 

Carmella immediately praised, “Norah is so hardworking, even working part–time on the weekend, I should learn from her.” 

“Oh, she’s just too energetic, can’t compare to you,” Cathrine said with a smile. 

Carmella laughed modestly, “Not at all, I heard in school that Ms. Lamont is an excellent student and passionate about charity. I’ve always wanted to be friends with her.” 

Simone seized the opportunity to say, “Then you should 

com 

ome over more often and interact with excellent girls like Ms. Lamont.” 

“Sure!” Carmella responded. 

Cathrine held her coffee, her expression calm, not saying anything. 

“By the way,” Simone said respectfully, “Our Estelle tutors at your house, and I heard that you and Mr. Lamont take good care of her, so I should have thanked you earlier. It’s rude of me to come so late.” 

Cathrine’s smile was even warmer, “Estelle? She’s doing great, Henson likes her a lot.” 

Simone smiled faintly, “Estelle didn’t have a good environment growing up and her parents are uneducated farmers. They used to beat her when they were alive. I was always worried that Estelle would inherit their negative traits, but it seems she’s doing well, I just don’t know what will happen in the future!” 

Cathrine looked surprised, “Really? Estelle had such a hard time when she was young?” 

“Yes, Carmella’s father and I supported her because we saw she was struggling. We even brought her to J City for school. Although she’s our adopted daughter, we care for her as much as our own.” Simone sighed, “We’ve done what we could, the rest is up to her.” 

Cathrine looked at Simone, saying meaningfully, “So, Estelle is your adopted daughter.” 

Simone held Carmella’s hand, nodding, “Yes, we only have Carmella.” 

Cathrine chuckled, “Then you should take good care of Carmella, we’ll look after Estelle.” 

Simone thought Cathrine was being polite and hastily replied, “You’ve already been very kind to her.” 

At that moment, a servant walked over and said to Cathrine, “Madam, the peach cobbler for Ms. Macclain is ready.” 

Simone looked surprised, “Mrs. Lamont, you’re too kind.”
