Chapter 55
Magdalen went off to dance, leaving Estelle as the only one on the sofa. She played some games with Henson for a while, and then a whiff of perfume drifted over. Estelle looked up and saw Hattie.
Was that Jonathan’s lover? Or one of them?
Hattle was wearing a deep blue backless dress adorned with diamonds, looking radiant and approachable. “Estelle,” she greeted.
Estelle and Henson said hi, exited the game, and gave á polite smile. “Ms. Hattie!”
Thanks to Firefly Media Group’s resources, Hattle appeared as a guest on a popular reality show and gained some fame once again.
Her attitude was much more friendly than before, and she said with a smile, “I just saw Mr. Lamont. Estelle, you came with him, right?”
Estelle had had four or five different drinks this afternoon, and she was now feeling somewhat uneasy. She only smiled faintly without saying a word.
“Mr. Lamont must treat you very well, huh?” Hattie’s eyes sparkled when mentioning Jonathan.
Staying in the big comfortable sofa, Estelle tilted her head slightly and smiled at her, her voice pure and innocent. “Ms. Hattie, do you like him?”
Hattie’s face flushed with embarrassment, and she looked down, smiling. “How could I deserve Mr. Lamont?” So she admitted she liked him.
Estelle’s smile was even more innocent as she asked, “Last time I heard you talking with Ms. Vang. She said you two slept together, is that true?”
Hattie blushed even more. “It was just a coincidence.”
Estelle blinked, becoming more curious. “What really happened? Tell me everything. My grandma has been pushing him to find a girlfriend and get married lately. If you two are really something, I can put in a good word for you with my grandma and make Jonathan take your relationship more serious.”
Hattie’s heart skipped a beat, her eyes gleaming with excitement. “Really?”
Estelle looked at her, “of course, trust me!”
Hattie moved closer, her beautiful makeup hiding her unease and anticipation. In a low voice, she said, “It was a couple of months ago at the Sapphire Hotel. He got drunk and we…
She looked shyly down, not saying anything more, but it was clear what had happened.
“Sure.”
Hattie gave Estelle a gentle and especially sincere smile before leaving gracefully.
Estelle took a sip of her cocktail, it was sweet, she didn’t taste the spiciness of vodka at all.
“It’s my
Just as she was about to take a second sip, a handsome man in a suit appeared before her, his eyes spar as he looked at her. He extended his right hand and asked politely, “Miss, would you like to dance with me
Before she could answer, she heard a familiar voice above her head,
“Sorry, she can’t accept your invitation because it’s time for her to go home.”
Estelle looked up and met Jonathan’s gaze.
