Chapter 1071
Jonathan was driving and said in a low voice, “Mr. Tucker wanted you to play the lead role in his movie, but I turned
him down for you.”
Estelle was taken aback, and instinctively asked, “How did you know?”
Jonathan chuckled, “I’m the biggest investor for this movie now, so of course I know everything.”
“I know you don’t like being in the spotlight, so I didn’t ask for your opinion. You’re not mad at me, right?” Jonathan
asked.
“No.” Estelle replied, looking down. Actually she had already turned down Mr. Tucker multiple times.
With the investor stepping in this time, Mr. Tucker should finally stop pestering her.
“How are you going to thank me?” the man asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEstelle turned her head in surprise and saw the man’s profile illuminated by the evening glow. His features were
distinct, his expression serious. She couldn’t believe that he was actually expecting her to thank him.
Estelle chuckled, “And how would you like me to thank you?”!!
“How about you treat me to dinner tonight!”
Estelle didn’t expect such a simple request, and quickly agreed, “Sure!”
“If only you could agree to all my requests so readily!” The man smiled at her, his tone carrying a subtle hint of
barely noticeable complaint.
Estelle looked away and didn’t respond.
Jonathan took her to the Yum Yum Bakery. He walked in front, and she followed behind.
As they crossed the road, Jonathan suddenly turned back and chuckled, “Hurry up, are you still counting the steps?
Haven’t you figured out how many there are yet?” Estelle looked up at him. The sky was darkening, the dim light
filtered through the leaves. The man’s gaze was profound, his lips curved with a hint of a smile, tinged with
tenderness that made her heart race.
This scene was too familiar, so familiar that even the shadows of the branches were deeply etched in her memory.
Every time they came here in the past, she would walk these stone steps step by step. Jonathan’s pace was always
quick, and he would occasionally stop and wait for her, teasingly asking if she was counting the steps, which was
why she was walking so slowly
In the end, he would always take her hand and get her to keep up with his pace.
His gaze was sharp and focused, as if he could see right through her. But Estelle calmed herself down and said, “I’m
not counting them anymore.”
Jonathan looked at her for a while before turning around and continuing to walk. Estelle quickly caught up with him.
They sat in their usual spot. When Courtney came to take their order and saw Estelle, she was thrilled, “Long time
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmno see!”
Estelle gave her a gentle smile, “I haven’t been in J City for the past couple of years.”
“That explains why Jonathan always comes alone.” Courtney looked fondly at her, then at Jonathan and said, “But
he always orders your favorite dishes. He must have missed you a lot. It’s great that you’re back.”
Feeling a little awakward, Estelle didn’t know how to respond.
Jonathan smoothly took over the conversation, “She insisted on coming here as soon as she got back. She
especially wanted your milk tea, so add more sugar for her to quench her thirst.”
Estelle was even more embarrassed and couldn’t refute.
“No problem, I will personally make it.” Courtney was even happier, “Today’s meal is on the house, order whatever
you like.”
“No need!” Estelle immediately refused.
“Don’t be shy, I’m really happy today. You won’t have the chance in the future!” Courtney said half-jokingly, but her
tone was sincere. She didn’t give Estelle a chance to argue and started taking orders for them.
