The sound of a knock on the restroom door broke the tension in the air as Lambert called out, "Rella, are you in there?"
Estelle's body instantly tensed up.
Jonathan scoffed with a wry smile, "We're husband and wife for crying out loud, acting like a couple of lovebirds sneaking around!"
Estelle looked up defiantly, "Are you blaming me?"
Jonathan paused, then shook his head, "No, not at all."
"You feel cornered, don't you? The great Mr. Alvis, the CEO of the Lamont Group, reduced to this, it's frustrating, isn't it?"
"That's not it."
Estelle frowned, "It is! It's because of me that you're enduring this, mmph!"
Jonathan's response was to cup her face and silence her with his lips.
The knocking continued, but neither of them paid any heed, lost in a fervent kiss.
Outside, Sylvia approached Lambert with a smile, "Looking for Rella?"
Lambert frowned, "Isn't she in there?"
"Mr. Alvis is in the restroom, so I asked Rella to go upstairs. You can wait in the living room, and I'll bring Rella down to you shortly," Sylvia said with a flawless smile.
Lambert nodded slightly, his devilishly handsome face a mix of jest and seriousness, "Alright, tell Rella I'm waiting for her downstairs, quite eagerly. If she doesn’t come down soon, I might just have to go fetch her myself."
His words, though meant for Sylvia, carried a clear message: hands off Estelle!
His instincts told him that Beverly had a complicated relationship with Alvis, and while he was wary of Alvis, he wouldn't let anyone hurt Estelle again.
"Of course!" Sylvia laughed, "I'll take you to the living room."
After they walked away, Sylvia personally brewed Lambert a cup of hot tea, "I hear the Brennan family has some heritage from the old country and appreciates traditional customs. You must enjoy tea, then. How do you like the one I've prepared?"
