Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 20

The people watching in the corridor had already been cleared away by Kim, leaving only the security guards from the restaurant. The chandelier above emitted a warm yellow glow, but the atmosphere was tense.

When Jonathan came over, everyone instinctively moved to the sides to make way for him.

Hattie, supported by Amy, took a couple of steps forward. As she looked at Jonathan, her eyes filled with tears, appearing weak and fragile. She spoke with an aggrieved and apologetic tone, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lamont, for disturbing your meal."

"What happened?" Jonathan asked, glancing over to Estelle, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Kim didn't expect it to be Jonathan, her expression changed slightly as she swiftly positioned herself to shield Estelle.

No wonder Hattie was so fearless!

Amy quickly recounted the details of the incident, adding some embellishments, such as Estelle hitting Hattie and causing her to hit the wall, aggravating Hattie's leg injury.

Estelle looked at Jonathan calmly, but didn't expect Hattie to be his lover for real!

Kim stepped forward, protecting Estelle as she said, "So, Ms. Hattie is a friend of Mr. Lamont. My friend accidentally hurt Ms. Hattie. I'll take responsibility for this matter."

"You take responsibility?" Amy scoffed. "Our Hattie was supposed to start filming next month as a major character. With her injury flaring up, who knows how long it will delay her? The whole production will have to halt and wait. How can you be responsible for that?"

"How do you want her to take responsibility? Let us hear it!"

A sneering voice came from behind the crowd. It was Manley, who walked over with a seemingly amused expression. He walked straight to Estelle and looked her up and down with concern, "Baby, are you hurt? If they lay a finger on you, I'll make them all pay!"

Everyone was stunned. Kim saw that Manley and Estelle seemed to have a close relationship, so she stepped back to give Manley some room.

Estelle raised an eyebrow, unsure of Manley's intentions.

Manley stood protectively beside Estelle, his face turning cold as he stared at Amy, "Come on, tell us, how do you want my babe to be responsible?"

Manley, being even more famous in the entertainment industry than top-tier male stars, was well known to Amy, who turned pale and dared not to speak up.

Manley snorted contemptuously, "I'll be honest with you, my babe doesn’t like entertainers like you. You're all about scandals and showing off. I don't care who's backing you up. Today, if you upset my babe, none of you will get off easy!"
