Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1948

Estelle's heart ached as she held him tighter, burying herself in his embrace. "Jonathan, I owe you so much, I know that!"

Jonathan replied softly, "You owe me nothing. It's just that I've fallen for you beyond my control."

Her heart ached even more,  "Don't say that, it'll just make me feel more guilty."

Jonathan pulled her close to his chest, whispering, "If feeling guilty means you'll share everything with me from now on, then I can share even more about how I got through these past three days."

Clutching his shirt, Estelle held him tightly. He was her beacon, the strength and courage she needed to move through the darkness!

The anger of Jonathan slowly dissipated as he turned to kiss her temple gently.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here now."

"Mhm," Estelle nodded, her voice laced with dependence and a hint of a choke.

Trapped in a nightmare, her consciousness and life force ebbing away, it was his image she envisioned in the pitch-black night, standing behind her, urging her not to go any further.

That's how she knew it was a dream, and she had to wake up.

After a while, Estelle looked up. "How come Sylvia was with you?"

Jonathan's dark eyes met hers. "You don't know her?"

"I've seen her once at Magdalen's place. Does she have another identity?"

"Sylvia is her code name," Jonathan explained.

Estelle was slightly taken aback. "One of Gab's people?"

She had heard of this Sylvia but had never met her. There were many people in Gab's circle whom she hadn't encountered.

Jonathan nodded. "Sylvia was bought out of a bad situation by your brother when she was eight and kept close for personal training. Unlike you, she was taught to master the art of charming men. But a few years ago, after a mission, something happened. and she left the organization. After several twists and turns, she ended up in J City, starting her own PR firm. Even though she cut off her ties with your brother, she probably kept working for Gab. Now that Gab's gone missing, she's been searching for him too."

Realization dawned on Estelle. "So that’s it."
