Chapter 1414
Yvonne, teary-eyed, said, “I’m still filming for Mr. Tucker. If I quit now, Mr. Tucker would have to reshoot my parts,
and that’d pile more work on Estelle. I’ll leave J City after the film wraps up. I promise not to cause any trouble for
Estelle in the meantime. Plus, if I leave now, it might give Estelle the wrong idea about you and deepen
misunderstanding.”
Jonathan closed his eyes, as if holding back something. “If you upset her again, don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
“I understand,” Yvonne replied, her voice trembling.
By the time they got back to J City, it was already evening. Estelle had locked herself in the study, working on drafts
for several hours straight.
When she finally emerged, the sky was completely dark, and the living room was eerily quiet and lonely with no
lights on.

Seeing Estelle, Jonathan turned on the floor lamp, gazing at her affectionately.
I’ve ordered dinner. It might be a bit cold now; let me heat it up for you.”
“No need. I’m going out for a bit and will grab something to eat,” Estelle responded coldly, and then headed for the
door.
“Ella!” Jonathan got up to follow her.
Estelle stopped and turned, her eyes icy under the dim light. “Don’t follow me. And don’t just barge into my room
anymore, or I’m moving out tomorrow” Jonathan looked at her, his eyes somber. “Ella, I haven’t done anything. You
can’t treat me like this.”
“Give me some time to think,” Estelle said, her voice hoarse.
“How much time do you need? I’ll wait right here.
“I don’t want to see you!” Estelle turned and left, slamming the door behind her. The room fell back into its previous
silence.
Jonathan stood there, watching Estelle’s retreating figure, feeling like his chest had been hollowed out. His heart
was empty and numb with pain.
Estelle wandered aimlessly around a nearby supermarket and only came back with a bag of ice cream.
When she walked back in, only the light from the floor lamp was visible.
Jonathan was already gone.
Estelle sat on the balcony, opening the ice cream containers one by one and eating until she was freezing and
couldn’t eat anymore.
She felt a sharp pain in her stomach.
Looking at the empty ice cream containers, she suddenly realized her relationship with Jonathan was just like the
ice cream. It was her favorite, but it only caused her pain.
The next morning was hectic. By noon, Blythe returned to find Estelle slumped over her desk, seemingly asleep.

the script?”
“Yep, all done!” Blythe replied, pouring a glass of water for Estelle. She asked curiously. “What’s up with you,
Estelle? Not feeling well?”
“I couldn’t sleep well last night,” she replied, taking a big gulp of water.
Blythe laughed, saying. “You look like you’re heartbroken too!”
Estelle paused her drinking, forced a smile, and asked, “How are you feeling? Any better?”
Blythe sat down and said, “I’m okay, I guess. I feel better when I’m busy, but I still miss him when I have nothing to
do, especially at night. I can’t sleep” She bit her lip and looked at Estelle with a complex expression, saying, “He’s
been trying to reach out to me.”
“Oh?” Estelle raised an eyebrow. “What for?”
“He wants us to get back together. He said that after we broke up, he realized that I was the one he truly loved. He
doesn’t love his ex anymore, he just had a hard time accepting it before”
