Estelle asked Magdalen, surprised, "Manley took Lambert with him?"
Magdalen raised an eyebrow. "Lambert was drunk and kept shouting about challenging Jonathan to a drinking contest. Manley had someone drag him away. He probably took him back to J City to keep him from causing you any trouble."
Estelle nodded. She felt relieved knowing Lambert was with Manley.
Jonathan looked over. "What did Manley get you?"
"A castle," Estelle answered truthfully.
Jonathan picked up the note Manley had written, glanced at it, and remarked with a cold sneer, "He certainly knows how to play the generous friend."
Estelle arched a brow. "What, does that mean Mr. Lamont knows about the Scott family's affairs?"
"Mr. Lamont?" The man looked up at her, his voice low and magnetic from the wine.
Estelle knew when to be practical and quickly corrected herself. "Husband."
Only then did Jonathan smile warmly and explain, "Did you think the Hammer family would give up so easily? Two percent is no small amount."
Estelle's eyes lit up with understanding. "You helped the Scott family?"
"More specifically, I helped Vicente Scott. But it wasn't for free. We've always had an agreement." Jonathan wrapped an arm around her shoulder, resting his forehead against her cheek. His wine-tinged lips brushed against her skin. "Are they being too loud?"
Estelle's lips were rosy as she whispered back, "I heard they're planning to haze us in the bridal chamber."
Jonathan raised an eyebrow. "Is that so? What should we do? We can't let them ruin our wedding night."
Estelle looked at him with her picturesque eyes. "I'm leaving it to you."
"What are you two whispering about?" Charlie suddenly called out. "There's a rule, you know. The bride and groom aren't allowed to whisper tonight. Whatever you say has to be heard by everyone!"

Why are the chapters from 61 so horrible to read. We cannot even make out a single line.completely and we cant even lessen the fonts to make it legible. It is such a killjoy....
