Seeing her father also curious, Sallie’s eyes darted mischievously, and she
huffed, “I guessed!” “If you can get a hold of Estelle, give her a ring, tell her to lay
low for a while, don't rush back to J City. Let the storm pass,” Leonie sighed,
worry etching her features. “As for us, we're definitely on the Crawley family’s hit
list now. Just have to keep our fingers crossed and hope Dad doesn't cut us off
like he did with Estelle!” Hans chimed in, “Don’t worry, you've got me and Sallie!”
Sallie added, “Mom, Dad, you have to stand firm with Estelle. Trust me, our
decision today was the right one.” Leonie knew Sallie idolized Estelle but didn't
take her words to heart, merely pondering, “I should give Mr. Foster a call, fill him
in on the situation.” Stanley stood up, “I'll do it!” Once the Macclain family left the
Crawley estate, they immediately called Cliff to report. Cliff sneered, “Ungrateful
lot!” “They're probably scared of Jonathan's retaliation!” “Jonathan?” Cliff said.
“I'm actually hoping he gets involved. Let's see if he can keep Estelle safe!”
Whether Estelle could even make it back from her trip was questionable, and her
so-called protector, Gab, wasn't in a much better position. Cliff was eager to see
how Jonathan would turn the tide! If he dared claim Estelle as his wife, the entire
Lamont family would be under scrutiny! Cliff was curious to see if Jonathan had
the guts for that! He ordered, “Get our online troops to sway public opinion.
Cement Estelle’s reputation as a sellout, someone who betrays her own for
foreign favor. Steer the narrative that way!” “Understood!” the man replied. When
Carson got the call from Stanley, he nodded calmly, “Alright, got it.”
Stanley apologized, “We've done all we can. Let Estelle stay out of the spotlight
until this blows over. Eventually, the online buzz will die down, and people will
forget.” “Mhm,” Carson responded, ending the call. So it was the Crawley family
behind this. No surprise there! The last time Jonah sent the Crawley family a
“gift’, Cliff was kept busy for a while, but due to business ties, he was bailed out
by his connections. But now, Cliff was courting disaster again. And this time, he
might not be targeting Estelle alone! As Carson was mulling things over, his
phone rang. It was Marina, “Stanley's Twitter storm has been suppressed, and
the crowd seems to be buying the Bennett's story. What should we do?” “I know.
Stanley just filled me in. It's the Crawley family, in cahoots with the Macclains,
trying to take advantage of Estelle’s absence to get back at Antonia,” Carson said
with a frosty voice. “The Crawley family again?” Marina gasped, suddenly
everything clicked. It was all premeditated. “Don’t worry about it. I'll try to reach
out to Jonah again, see when he can return,” Carson said. “Alright!” (Image)

Marina laughed. Colltent of Dramalovels.com “Sounds good!” “Then you go
ahead and contact Mr. Lamont. Estelle’s situation is the priority right now.” “Okay,
hanging up now.” Carson ended the call and immediately dialed Jonathan. After
five rings, the call was answered, and Carson's spirits lifted, “Jonah!”
