Chapter 384
Jonathan finished shuffling the cards and put them aside, reaching for a cigarette. Estelle suddenly
reached out and pressed on the cigarette box, staring at him with clear eyes, “Who said they were
quitting smoking?
Jonathan looked at her with deep eyes, and said slowly, “What’s it got to do with you?”
Estelle’s eyes sparkled, her pink lips pursed, hiding a trace of stubbornness.
Jonathan’s heart was pounding. He thought that if she said she cared, as long as she spoke up, he
would immediately forget about the previous matter. Even if she lied to him for the sake of another
man, he would not pursue it.
He would spoil her as he used to, no, he would spoil her even more!
But Estelle didn’t say anything, just slowly took her hand back and dropped her gaze, getting up and
leaving.
The light in his eyes gradually darkened, his face sank, and his hand holding the cigarette slowly

His rapidly beating heart gradually returned to calm, bland, numb.
Josiah and Charlie complained about the fact that they had caused Yvonne to lose at cards.
Charlie couldn’t help but chuckle and patted Josiah on the shoulder, “Playing cards with Jonathan?
Don’t you know he can remember every card?”
Josiah’s eyes widened instantly!
Yvonne was singing, and a crowd of people were cheering. Josiah ran over, waving a glow stick
vigorously.
Yvonne sang an old-fashioned song. Her voice was deep and elegant, and with her gentle and
emotional temperament, she performed the old song just as well as the original singer.
Gradually, everyone gathered around her, clapping and cheering!
Magdalen was playing a racing game with Kevin, while Estelle went to the basketball machine and
played by herself.
Erik watched her for a while and noticed her swishing every shot, he couldn’t help but exclaim in
surprise, “Estelle, are you on the basketball team?”
“Huh?” Estelle was lost in thought, turning her head at the sound, looking out of sorts, “What’s up?”
Erik looked amazed, “I’ve been watching for a while, you threw thirty-six balls, all of them went in
without hitting the rim, have you played basketball before?”
Estelle was preoccupied, and her shots were subconscious movements. She shook her head and said,
“No, I haven’t played basketball.”
Erik looked incredulous, “Are you kidding me?”
Estelle smiled faintly, “Really not!”
“Want to compare?” Erik was eager, “I was on the school basketball team in college.”

“Sure.” Estelle smiled.
The two of them each got a machine with a three-minute timer to see who could score the most points!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the contest began, Estelle’s machine kept showing perfect! She just threw the ball directly into the
hoop, with nine balls shuttling back and forth, it was dizzying!
The three minutes passed quickly, and Erik took a deep breath, checking his score: 846 points!
That’s an extraordinary performance!
He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Estelle’s machine only to be stunned!
1144 points!
He couldn’t believe it and stared at Estelle, too shocked to speak.
Estelle raised her eyebrows, “Did I win?”
Erik frowned, “Do you know the highest score for this kind of basketball game?”
Estelle turned her eyes and asked, “How much?”
“1024!”
Erik said the number and then turned to look at Magdalen, “Magdalen, come here!”
Magdalen got off the motorcycle, “What’s the matter?”
Erik excitedly grabbed her hand, “Tell me the truth, is Estelle on the basketball team?”
Magdalen laughed, “Why are you so worked up?”
