So, what's the deal with the Macclains? Why are they suddenly claiming to have supported KING? On the other side, as the Macclains watched the live stream, they were on their feet in shock when Jonathan announced that Estelle had married him six years ago and Estelle was the wife of the Lamont Group’s CEO. They stared at the couple’s clasped hands, disbelief written all over their faces. Estelle had married Jonathan six years ago? Wasn't that right after she returned to the Macclain household? What on earth was going on? The Macclains were utterly confused and shocked! Their bewilderment peaked when Old Mr. Jarvis stepped forward and declared that Estelle had been raised in the Jarvis household and was the rightful heir to the Jarvis estate. The Macclains’ faces turned an unsightly shade of pale. Terrence’s hands trembled as he pointed at the TV, stammering to Bennett, “What's going on here?” Bennett was just as stunned. Since when was Estelle part of the Jarvis family? This was ridiculous! And what about Estelle’s marriage to Jonathan? Wasn't their agreement annulled three years ago? Why was Jonathan still calling her his wife? “Bennett, Simone, what's this all about? You can’t drag the whole Macclain family down with you!” Natalia was panicking now. Just looking at the influential figures standing beside Estelle on the video, any one of them was someone the Macclains couldn't afford to mess with. They had always thought Estelle was just cozying up to these power players, but it turned out she was one of them! Sabina was speechless. Jonathan's wife? Estelle was Jonathan's wife? How could this be? Simone’s face was drained of color.
“I don’t know, Estelle always kept it from us, we only found out just now!” The Jarvis household had taken Estelle in, and they had been oblivious to it all! Terrence was panicking and ordered Bennett, “Call the Crawleys, we need to get to their place tonight, no more delays!” Any further delays and the Macclain family might be history in J City. Bennett, snapped back to reality, hastily pulled out his phone to call the Crawleys, but after three attempts, no one answered. “Harriet’s there too!” Carmella murmured, her eyes glued to the TV. On the live stream, Harriet approached Estelle with a bouquet of flowers, her smile poised and respectful, “Welcback, boss!” The crowd erupted once more. Estelle was the power behind GK! Simone slumped onto the couch as various past events flashed through her mind, and the pieces of the puzzle finally fit together. Why had Jonathan always protected Estelle? Why had Harriet personally sought her out? Why had GK consistently backed Estelle, even at the risk of public backlash, always staunchly standing by her side? Turns out, Estelle was the boss of GK. The Macclains watched the live broadcast, speechless for a time. Estelle, whom they had looked down upon since her return, deemed unworthy of being a Macclain daughter, had been harboring identities beyond their wildest imaginations! So it wasn’t that Estelle couldn't return to the Macclains; she simply deemed it beneath her! Simone watched the girl in the baseball cap on the live stream and remembered the first tshe saw Estelle, also wearing a cap, silent. But now, she was shielded by Jonathan, protected by Old Mr.
Jarvis, still silent with her eyes closed. That wasn’t shyness; it was disdain! God! Her daughter was impressive! More impressive than she had ever imagined! Simone’s mind was reeling with an overload of information and emotions, feeling like it was about to explode!
