Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1028

How much he wished he could've been there that sweltering summer day, to shield her from those two dogs rushing up to her, to show her that there were people in this world who would help and love her.

Estelle didn't struggle, but fended off the man's advances with a composed expression. He was more unsettling than the dogs behind him.

Soon, the elevator stopped at the sixteenth floor. The woman holding the dogs sneaked a peek at the entwined couple before taking her dogs and leaving.

Once the elevator doors closed, Estelle immediately stepped out of the man's embrace and turned to face the elevator doors.

Jonathan leaned against the elevator wall, his gaze never leaving her retreating figure.

The elevator stopped again. Estelle stepped out with Jonathan following close behind.

She entered the password to open the door. The moment it opened, she darted inside and slammed it shut with a bang.

Jonathan, left outside, was speechless.

Inside, Estelle let out a long sigh, feeling like the pent-up frustration of the past few days had finally found some release.

Jonathan knocked on the door, "Open up, let's talk."

"There's nothing to talk about!" Estelle leaned against the door, her tone icy. "Mr. Lamont isn't short on women. No need to lower yourself to my level."

"What woman?" Jonathan spoke softly, "The woman you saw at the restaurant that day was set up for a blind date with me, I had no prior knowledge."

"You don't need to explain anything to me, go explain to your girlfriend!" Estelle retorted coldly.

Jonathan paused for a moment, "I don't have a girlfriend, I only have a wife."

"Not for long!"
