Chapter 1218
Magdalen scored a big client in B City, which had her over the moon. Estelle and Emily were also riding the high
with her. They were clinking glasses and gabbing away, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere
Kya was quietly munching on her dinner, occasionally making a comment that would have everyone in stitches
As the night wore on, their gathering moved from the dining room to the living room, with Magdalen still hitting the
booze, Estelle enjoying an ice cream, and Emily with a big bag of chips in her hand.
Even while snacking, they did not forget to chat, with an endless supply of topics.
Kya couldn’t open her eyes and dozed off in Emily’s arms. But the other three were far from sleepy, chatting away
into the wee hours.
In the stillness of the night, under the warm yellow light, sitting together with good friends seemed like the best
thing in the world.
Having drunk quite a bit, Magdalen decided to bunk at Emily’s place. Estelle tucked her into the guest bed before

Estelle went upstairs and sat on the balcony sofa, staring at the city in the early morning.
Beside her, only a floor lamp was on, casting a dim light. Under the glow, Estelle’s features looked delicately
beautiful, but there was a hint of confusion in her clear eyes
Feeling tipsy, she couldn’t fall asleep.
She took out her phone and scrolled through her contacts. The last call from Jonathan was eight days ago. That
day, she had returned from Villa del Sol and told him she was going home to work on some designs.
They parted at the building’s entrance. As she was waiting for the elevator, he suddenly called her and said.
“Ella, can you turn and look at me the next time we part?”
That moment seemed like a long time ago, but she could still remember his gentle tone.
She was taken aback for a moment, then responded with a soft “Mm-hmm”
He seemed very pleased and then hung up.
Not long after, Manley Scott created a storm between them, shattering that warm moment.
Estelle stared at the name on her phone, her finger hovering over it, a flash of hesitation in her eyes. In the end,
she pressed the dial button.
The phone went into dialling mode. The ringtone rang once, twice, three times, but no one picked up.
Jonathan couldn’t possibly be sleeping now, so he must be deliberately ignoring her call.
Estelle felt a chill in her heart. Seeing that the phone rang four or five more times with no response, she was about
to hang up when the screen flickered and then went black
Her phone ran out of battery and shut down automatically
Estelle couldn’t help but smirk. Perhaps even her phone was trying to save her from further embarrassment.
She got to her feet, took a deep breath, trying to blow away the dullness in her chest, and walked back to her room
with her phone. After plugging it in, she didn’t turn it back on and grabbed her pajamas to take a bath.
Midnight Bar
Jonathan had gone to the restroom and came back to find a missed call on his phone. He casually unlocked his
phone and froze when he saw the caller’s

Had She called him? She actually called him!
“What are you daydreaming about?” Charlie was sitting next to him, chuckling softly
He had a social engagement earlier in the evening and had just arrived. Upon arrival, he saw Jonathan sitting on the
couch, transfixed by his phone
He took a glance at the screen and saw Estelle’s name. Smiling, he asked, “Did you have another spat with Estelle?”
Jonathan had been off his game lately, and the only one capable of getting him so down in the dumps was Estelle!
Jonathan finished the drink in his hand, his gaze icy “What do I have to do to make Manley disappear from her life
completely?”
He had sent Manley abroad and even arranged for a woman to get close to him!
But this time, Marley’s feelings for Estelle were real. He wasn’t messing around with other women anymore and
wasn’t frequenting clubs unless he had to for business. He was actually starting to clean up his acti
Charlie shook his head, “That’s tough. You know Manley once saved Estelle’s life. They were together for two years.
You’ve also said that Estelle believes in repaying kindness, she won’t let anything happen to Manley. If you take a
hard stance. She might never forgive you”
Jonathan felt a pang in his heart and replied with a bitter smile, Do you really think I still care whether she forgives
me of not?”
