Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 184

Winnie saw her holding a whole box of sugar and couldn't help but laugh, "Estelle loves sweets, but Mr. Lamont is afraid that eating too much sugar will be bad for her health, so he doesn't allow her to eat a lot. Today, Estelle is gonna go crazy with the sugar at your place, Mrs. Macy."

Mrs. Macy looked at Estelle with some meaningful glint in her eyes and said, "Mr. Lamont and Ms. Macclain have a great relationship."

Estelle smiled and said, "He's just too domineering."

Winnie exaggeratedly gasped, "Estelle, you're making me jealous! A guy like that is hard to come by! Most people would die for that kind of domineering love."

In the evening, after taking a bath, Jonathan applied body lotion on Estelle's back, and she said, "Baldrick invited the Macys to the opera, and you should have gone too."

She didn't know if she should tell Jonathan about what she had seen during the day. She hadn't heard the specifics of the conversation, and she was afraid that she might be overthinking. If she brought it up, it could cause a rift between Jonathan and Baldrick, especially since they had to work together in the future. But if she didn't, she was worried that Jonathan might let his guard down and be deceived by Baldrick.

After contemplating, she didn't mention it but could only subtly hint at it, hoping he would understand what she meant.

Jonathan sat on the edge of the bed and chuckled, "You don't like the opera, so I decided to stay and keep you company."

Estelle lay on the bed, turned her head to look at him, and said, "When you told me about the opera, I thought you had prepared it especially for me. If I had known it was for the Macys, I would have joined them for sure."

She lowered her eyes and continued, "You don't have to cater to me all the time. I may not be able to help much, but I don't want to hold you back from doing what you need to do."

Jonathan leaned forward, propped up by his arms, and gazed into her eyes. His voice was languid, "Who says you haven't helped me? My body feels relaxed at night, and I can get things done more efficiently during the day. If the deal goes through, you'll be my biggest contributor!"
