Chapter 222

Back at the villa, Jonathan was working in the study, while Estelle went straight to her bedroom and stood on the balcony, looking at the scenery in the manor.

No matter what, she had nothing but fond memories of this place, including the times spent with Winnie and Mrs. Macy.

She heard footsteps approaching behind her, and soon, a man’s arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her into his embrace, bending down to her ear and asking, “What’s on your mind?”
