Carson hung up the phone and immediately dialed Jonathan. "Jonah, are you at the office?"
Jonathan had just finished a meeting. "What's up?"
"I've always felt guilty about you getting hurt because of me. Let's have dinner together tonight, my treat." Carson sounded sincere.
"No need!" Jonathan responded casually. "We don't need that between us."
Carson chuckled softly. "I'll invite Estelle as well. My fiancée has been wanting to thank Estelle personally, so we can all have dinner together."
Jonathan's pen paused in his hand. After a moment, he said, "I’ll see you tonight."
"Alright, I'll give you a call tonight!"
"Sure!"
Jonathan hung up and called his secretary. "You'll be attending the banquet tonight, I have something to do."
Chuck responded, "Alright!"
Jonathan put down the phone, pushed back his chair, and slowly walked to the window. He gazed into the distance, a hint of helplessness in his eyes which gradually turned into frustration.
......
In the afternoon, Estelle received a call from Marina, who wanted to thank her for saving her life.
Estelle dismissed it with a light laugh. "You really don't need to thank me. Everyone in that room was in danger, I was just looking out for myself."
Marina replied softly, "But I was in the most danger. I must treat you to a meal. This is also Carson's idea. It's just a meal. Let's make friends, okay?"
Estelle laughed. "Alright, where should we meet?"
Marina said, "Estelle, thank you for coming!"
"Oh, please don't mention it." Estelle smiled.
Marina reached her hand and led Estelle to a seat. "Carson told me you're a designer at Snowy Studios. You're really amazing!"
Listening to the woman's affectionate address, Carson sneered inwardly. Ever since Cicely's incident, they hadn't seen each other. She wouldn't even look at him a moment ago, but as soon as Estelle arrived, she suddenly became soft and gentle.
Were all these women such drama queens?
As Estelle and Marina were talking, the door suddenly opened and a tall figure walked in.
Estelle turned her head and was slightly surprised. She didn't know that Carson had also invited Jonathan.
Jonathan was also staring at her. He turned to Carson and said, "I'm late!"

Someone needs to send a new picture of Trevor to Oliver and Luke so that they will get their requested reports to Gonzalez asap. If they didn't know, now they know what awaits them if they continue to disrespect and NOT follow orders....
Well, well, well. I love how Gonzalez sent out the warning that he's the CEO and either they will acknowledge him as such or get their due diligence. I'm waiting to see how the Franco family will be walking on eggs and come into a new understanding of Gonzalez taking charge. Thank you so much for the five updates....
Adrian is hoping that he has a chance with Norah and will do everything and anything in his power to keep Norah and Xavier apart....
Thank you for the updates. I hope that Norah will remember Xavier and their relationship before the accident and that they will ever be to....
Thank you, thank you for the updates today, which is also my birthday. The saga continues. I really want Norah and Xavier to be together... but he has to want Norah....
