Bennett returned home, his face slick with sweat, and said to Terrence, “Can't get through to the Crawley family, their lines are dead!”
“We can't just sit around; we need to get out of J City, now!” Terrence spun around, panic stripping him of any composure. Gone was the commanding presence of a family relocating to B City; he looked more like a rat fleeing a sinking ship.
Bennett hurried to book flights to B City, only to find that there were none available.
Terrence was losing his cool. “Then charter a private jet, damn it! We have to leave tonight, no matter what!”
“What about Sabina? She's still at the Lamont Group. If we leave, will Mr. Lamont take it out on her?” Natalia chimed in, her voice laced with anxiety.
Sabina stared blankly at the live broadcast on TV, where Jonathan's parents were also present, explaining to the reporters that their son's low-profile relationship with Estelle was why there hadn't been a public wedding, and Estelle's reserved nature meant they all respected her wishes.
Catherine's warmth as she repeatedly mentioned Estelle struck a chord with Sabina. She had held hopes of getting close to Jonathan through Catherine.
What a joke that seemed now!
Estelle must have been laughing at her behind her back!
Sabina's vision blurred as her sense of superiority crumbled. She had always seen herself as the cream of the MacClain family, a standout graduate from a prestigious university. She never thought she had to worry about someone like Estelle, who couldn't even claim a noble lineage. And yet, she was the fool.
Estelle had already married Jonathan?
The revelation was too much for her to bear.
What had all her years of dedication to the Lamont Group been for?
At Hans's household, the family of four watched the same broadcast. When Estelle's true identity was revealed, Leonie's eyes bulged with shock.
Hans remained calm, "Mom, take a moment, no need to stutter!"
Stanley said ominously, "Probably the same as here, completely shell-shocked by Estelle's status."
More than shell-shocked, it was downright frightening.
Sallie sneered, "Wonder if they're scared enough to flee in the night?"
Leonie shook her head, whispering, "They might want to, but it's too late for that. After what they did to Estelle, the Lamonts and the Jarvises will surely come for the MacClains first."
Sallie was elated, "They had it coming!"
They hadn't spared a thought for the consequences when they slandered Estelle. They deserved whatever was coming to them—no, it would be worse than today.
At the airport.
