Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1998

Carson dialed up Stanley personally, and naturally, Stanley couldn’t refuse. He and his wife Leonie promptly accepted the invitation.

By the time Carson and Marina arrived at the private dining room, the Macclains were already there along with their daughter, Sallie Macclain.

After the introductions, Carson cut straight to the chase, “We’re here about Estelle. She’s being dragged through the mud, and even the Macclain family has been bad-mouthing her. You must know about this. Estelle isn’t in J City, and we hope you can stand up for her!”

Sallie immediately said, “We’ll do anything for her. Just say the word, and we’re on it!”

Recently, Sallie had been on a reality show akin to Next Top Model, gaining some fame. Because of the debacle with KING and its connection to Snowy Studios, she was facing resistance within the industry and had been staying home.

She had tried to support KING online, but her efforts were drowned out by the irrational fury of the netizens.

“Is it really like the announcement Bennett released?” Marina asked.

Sallie shook her head vehemently, “Of course not. Estelle is my sister-in-law's biological daughter!”

Marina’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Then why are they doing this?”

Leonie chimed in, “It’s a long story. Estelle was switched at birth and raised elsewhere. Even after coming back to us, she never got close to my sister-in-law!”

Marina was still in shock, unable to grasp, “Even if they’re not close, she’s still her biological daughter. How could she treat Estelle this way?”

Sallie scoffed, “Must be some kind of spell on her brain!”

Carson and Marina exchanged a look, both finding it absurd that Estelle’s own parents were the ones slandering her.

Leonie sneered, “Having such parents is truly bizarre. They act as if they have a vendetta against Estelle, wishing she’d just disappear!”

Carson spoke calmly, “If that’s the case, Mrs. Macclain, could you perhaps issue a statement to clarify the truth?”

Leonie glanced at Stanley, hesitating for a moment.

Sallie had a sudden realization, “Right, we can tell the truth to the netizens, expose my aunt’s lies!”

She turned eagerly to Leonie, “Mom, you and dad should release it now, right away!”
