Chapter 1416
Jonathan whipped up a bunch of grub, and Charlie popped open the hooch he brought.
Like always, everybody was grubbing and gabbing together, but the mood was kind of heavy because Jonathan and
Estelle seemed off.
Even Emily picked up on the weird vibes.
When Jonathan stepped out on the balcony to take a call, Emily furrowed her brow and asked, “Estelle, what’s up
with you and Jonathan? You guys have a spat?” Estelle took a swig of her drink, not saying anything.
Charlie poured Estelle another drink and said gently, Tve been around Jonathan for years. I know he really loves
you. You two have been through a lot together. Don’t let small stuff mess with your relationship.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Only those who’ve been through it can really understand love.” Estelle said, her lips pressed together.
Emily asked, “So what happened?”
Estelle said, “I’ll tell you when I’ve calmed down a bit.”
“Estelle, your love for Jonathan is the only love story I believe in. You two have to make it!” Emily looked worried.
Charlie shot Emily a glance and joked, “Emily Sullivan, did you ever think about how I’d feel hearing that?”
Emily laughed, saying, “Do you even know what love is?”
Charlie felt a bit miffed.
Jonathan came back shortly, and they all dropped the subject, just eating quietly, and only Charlie and Emily
cracked jokes from time to time. After dinner, Estelle went upstairs, and Jonathan followed suit.
They walked upstairs together in silence. When they reached the top, Estelle headed straight for her place, but
Jonathan grabbed her arm. “Have you made up your mind?” Jonathan looked at her.
Estelle looked down, her eyes cold and distant.
Jonathan tightened his lips. “What are you thinking about? If it’s the birth control thing. I can explain.”
“After a few days of thinking, you finally came up with an explanation?” Estelle looked at him coldly. Jonathan’s eyes
flickered, as if something shattered and sank into the depths of his gaze
He looked at Estelle, seemingly in disbelief.
Estelle avoided Jonathan’s gaze, her face pale.
They stood in silence for a while.
The dim light in the hallway illuminated Jonathan’s tense profile. He slowly let go of Estelle’s arm, his voice low and
sorrowful: “You’re right, we can no longer understand each other’s thoughts or trust each other.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEstelle’s throat tightened, and she turned and walked towards her place.
The door closed, leaving Jonathan outside. He leaned against the wall, feeling completely drained and desolate.
Something inside him seemed to be slowly fading away, just like the night Estelle left two years ago.
Estelle had a restless night. At noon the next day, she tried to catch some shut-eye on her makeshift bed.
Blythe was sitting by the window, playing some sad love songs on her phone.
The more Estelle listened to the music, the harder it was for her to fall asleep.
Suddenly, her phone buzzed Estelle glanced at it and saw that it was a call from Janice
“Mrs Lamont Estelle sat up to answer the call.
“Estelle, long time no see! I just got back to J City. I’d like to meet up, are you free?” Janice’s voice was gentle and
cultured
Estelle thought Janice was going to ask about Henson’s studies and said with a smile. Tm free”
“I heard you’re working on a film set. Send me your location, and I’ll come find you”
“Sure!” Estelle replied.
