Chapter 365
Magdalen started the car and chuckled, “But I think he’s actually pretty good to you!”
Estelle couldn’t think of anything to say. Although Manley had ulterior motives, he indeed helped her a
lot and solved many troubles for her. So sometimes, even if she was so angry that she wanted to
punch him, she still held back.
Estelle took a deep breath. Today’s drama had brought her relationship with Jonathan to an all-time
low.
And that dessert shop was also an issue. Everyone talked lightly about it during dinner, but it was a
publicly listed chain store, you can imagine its value.
She felt uneasy about taking over someone’s store for no reason.
Magdalen seemed to see what she was thinking and smiled lightly, “Although the dessert shop is worth

exchange for the Raye family’s reputation. Just take it with ease for now and think about it later.”
Estelle nodded, and that’s all she could do.
Magdalen originally wanted to take Estelle out for some fun, but after this drama, Estelle was feeling
unwell. Plus, it was already late, so Magdalen took her back to the Royal Mansion.
At the hotel, Manley was about to leave when someone knocked on the car window.
Manley lowered the window and smiled at the person outside, “Oh, it’s Ms. Hattie. What’s up?”
Hattie smiled, “Thanks for today’s help, Mr. Scott!”
Manley smiled, “You’re welcome. If you want to thank someone, thank Estelle.”
“Of course, I have to thank Estelle!” Hattie said with a mischievous smile, looking innocent. “We were
really close when she was with Mr. Lamont. I’m definitely going to pay her back for helping me out
this time.”
Manley caught on that this woman was trying to sow discord between him and Estelle, thinking he
didn’t know about Estelle and Jonathan. She was deliberately reminding him.
Manley narrowed his eyes and motioned for Hattie to come closer.
Hattie immediately took a step forward.
Manley asked, “Doesn’t Mr. Daly have no requirements for the character of his lead actress?”
Hattie was stunned.
Manley’s face turned cold, and he sneered, “I think Mr. Daly’s choice of people is really poor. This
movie is doomed even without me sabotaging it!”
Manley then ordered the driver, “Let’s go. I’m feeling sick. Staying here another second might make me
throw up!”
The car quickly started and left, with Manley’s disgusted face gradually fading into the darkness.
Hattie stood there with a livid face, gritting her teeth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFor the next few days, Estelle didn’t see Jonathan or Manley at the Midnight Bar.
She accidentally met Clement on the sixth floor, who told her that Manley had gone to H City to deal
with some project issues that had come up there.
Estelle saw in the news that the Scott family’s factory in Y City also had negative reports and was
actively cooperating with investigations.
Estelle didn’t know if the series of events involving the Scott family had anything to do with Jonathan.
She was afraid she was overthinking it again.
That day, she went to the pier to find Zachary, following the address Xavier had given her.
They had rented a new house, much better than the previous one.
Two rooms, with the previous sign hanging outside: Big Arms Moving Company.
A man moving things at the door saw Estelle first, looked her up and down, and quickly ran inside.
“Zachary, she’s here to cause trouble again!”
Zachary thought it was Josiah’s people and shouted, “Let’s go and beat them up!”
Several men, one carrying a thick steel pipe, walked out with great momentum.
