Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 182

Mrs. Macy took the gift and opened it, inside the box was a fine looking gemstone. She acted like she really liked the gift, and softly thanked Winnie.

Estelle's eyes flashed, and she glanced at Jonathan.

Jonathan held her hand and squeezed it a bit to comfort her.

Everyone walked towards the hotel villa prepared for Mr. and Mrs. Schilder. Dinner was served and they ate and chatted.

Because Schilder's wife was from C City, his dialect was very good. He and Jonathan Baldrick spoke the Country C dialect without a hitch.

Schilder even brought along a brown-haired butler who had a stern face, carefully recording the conversations with his notebook.

Mrs. Macy sat by Schilder's side throughout the dinner, looking obedient. You wouldn't guess she was over 35.

She could drink quite a lot, too. She could tell the name and year just by smelling the wine. Quite impressive.

From time to time, Schilder and his wife would exchange whispers, displaying their affection.

Baldrick asked Winnie to accompany Mrs. Macy in drinking. Estelle decided to join them, but after just one glass, Jonathan had the servants to bring her some juice.

Winnie was talkative and cheerful, well-connected and with a wealth of knowledge. She quickly became familiar with Mrs. Macy.

Estelle was not good at talking and had no experience in such social gatherings. She felt guilty for not being able to help Jonathan.

Magdalen was right. Estelle couldn't escape this society, so she should learn social skills sooner or later.

Jonathan didn't care, seeing her being bored, he leaned in and whispered, "If you're full, you can go to the terrace. There are fireworks tonight."
