Chapter 817

Around noon, Estelle asked Mr. Malcom to join her for a meal at Xavier’ barbecue joint, since she hadn’t seen Xavier since New Year.

Norah was also there, bustling around in a grey and pink tracksuit, full of youthful energy.

Zachary and the others got on well with Norah, affectionately calling her by her first name.

When Estelle went to the kitchen, Xavier was out back having a smoke, a little dog was yapping around him.

Hearing footsteps, Xavier turned to see Estelle and immediately put on a smile, “Started work yet?”

“Yep.” Estelle, a bit scared of dogs, didn’t dare approach, just stood behind Xavier and asked, “Where’d the dog come from?”

Xavier explained, “Seems like it’s a prop from some movie crew at Movie Center, they left it here after they were done. Norah feeds it from time to time, so it keeps coming back for more.”

Knowing Estelle was afraid, he threw a bone to get the dog to go away.
