Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2139

Estelle chuckled, "Knock off the poor act and get back to work. Don't worry about me; everything's truly been taken care of."

"Just one kiss, and I'll do as you say," Manley whined playfully.

Estelle rolled her eyes and promptly ended the call.

Magdalen strolled up from behind, grinning, "Manley on the line? I noticed Jonathan's been eyeing this way a few times. Keep it up, and he'll be marching over here."

Estelle glanced across the hall and, sure enough, Jonathan was staring right at her.

For some reason, she felt a twinge of guilt and quickly averted her gaze.

Leaning on the railing, Magdalen inquired, "What's the deal with Evelyn?"

She always sensed the girl was a tad too friendly with Estelle. Estelle wasn't one for physical contact. Evelyn's repeated attempts to get close were rubbing her the wrong way.

After thinking it over, Estelle replied, "Her background's a bit unique."

"How so?" Magdalen prodded with a smile.

Estelle briefly shared the tale of Old Mr. Quintin's long-lost granddaughter and how she stumbled upon Evelyn at Citadel.

Magdalen listened with a mix of awe and surprise, "What are the odds? Old Mr. Quintin's missing granddaughter, and you find her at Citadel?"

Estelle raised an eyebrow, "Maybe it's fate, guiding me to bring her back to her grandfather."

Frowning, Magdalen questioned, "Was I too harsh earlier? I thought she was just an ordinary friend."

Estelle shook her head, "No worries."

"Did they do the paternity test yet?"

"Not yet. Old Mr. Quintin wants to wait for Vivian to get back."

Magdalen mused, "Old Mr. Quintin must be longing for his daughter."
