Chapter 196
Jonathan looked up, a bit taken aback, “What?”
Estelle walked down and said softly, ‘They’re helping Mrs. Macy find a pair of earrings. These earrings
mean a lot to Mrs. Macy. If they find them, they’ll gain Schilder’s trust and gratitude, which could help
Baldrick sign the deal”
From Millard’s words, Estelle felt her guess was correct. Baldrick indeed wanted to shake off Jonathan
and collaborate with Schilder alone. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have secretly sent people to find the
earings without telling Jonathan
Their partnership was doomed to fail once one party has a hidden agenda‘
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat he didn’t know was that yesterday afternoon, after Winnie had left, Mrs. Macy also talked to her
about the earrings.
Jonathan quickly understood and said with a calm smile, “So that’s what’s going on
Millard asked, “Ms. Macclain, do you know where the earrings are?”
“Yeah, I know!” Estelle’s eyes were clear and bright, “And Mrs. Macy asked me to help her find them as
well.”
The earings were with her grandfather. She was brought back to the Jarvis family when she was five.
At that time, she had mild autism and didn’t trust anyone around her. She hid in a comer every day, not
talking to anyone.
Her grandpa and brother tried to cheer her up by letting her play with the collectibles stored in the
warehouses. She saw the earrings in a wooden box. Millard asked, “Where are the earrings? Shall we
go now?”
Estelle thought for a moment and said, “I can go find the earrings, but I have a request
“Hmm? Jonathan looked up.
Estelle said, “I want to go alone.”
Jonathan chuckled, “Why?”
Estelles eyes dodged a little, and she said softly, “No reason.”
Of course, it was because she didn’t want him to meet her grandpa, and she couldn’t let Jonathan
know about her relationship with the Jarvis family. She wouldn’t be hiding it forever, but now was
definitely not the best time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJonathan stood up, with an indisputable tone, “I’ll go with you. There’s no other option, or we just forget
about it. I don’t believe Baldrick can sign the deal just because of a pair of earrings.”
“I promise you there’s no danger. I can get the earrings back by myself, really” Estelle looked up at
Jonathan with a serious expression.
There’s no room for negotiation. Either we go together, or no one goes. Jonathan was adamant
Estelle hesitated, her face unsure and not saying anything.
Millard said. “Where are the earrings? Why don’t I get them?”
Estelle shook her head, “If you go, he definitely won’t give them to you.”
Millard’s face was cold, with a hint of surprise, “Whose hands are the earrings in after all?”
Estelle glanced at Jonathan and slowly said, “They’re with the Jarvis family, in C City.
Millard was stunned for a moment. The Jarvis family in C City was a well–known and respected
household that almost everyone in the country knew
