Chapter 854

Estelle was taken aback by his attitude, “How could you say that?”

Jonathan took a deep breath, his arm resting on his long legs, his hands clasped together, “Norah doesn’t have any street smarts, but you should’ve told me about this.”

Estelle began to explain, “Did you know about Norah’s kidnapping? Actually, this whole thing…”

“I didn’t mean that!” Jonathan cut her off, “Nicolas did this, it’s got nothing to do with Xavier, and I won’t just drag Xavier and his guys into this.”

He continued, “But Xavier and his crew, they’re all men, and most of them have a sketchy past. You let Norah hang around with these types of people, did you even consider the consequences?”

Estelle blinked, her voice calm, “I think you’re being biased. Sure, Zachary and the others have messed up before, but they’re good people. They treat Norah like a little sister, they look after her!”

“Not bad guys?” Jonathan looked at Estelle with a frown, “What makes someone a bad guy? Do we have to wait until something happens to know who the bad guys are? Even if you trust Xavier, trust his crew, they’re still men at the end of the day. Do you know what goes through a man’s mind when they’re around women?
