Chapter 377
A plate of bee cream was placed right in front of Estelle. As she reached out to pick it up. Jonathan spoke in a cold tone, “Take it
away!”
The servant glanced at Jonathan’s face and hurriedly took the ice cream plate away.
Yvonne whispered, “Don’t be like that, you’ll scare Ms. Macclain.”
She smiled and looked back at Estelle, “I’m so sorry. Jonathan’s in a bad temper, don’t take it to heart. Let’s have some juice
instead The kitchen staff make great desserts, please help yourself!” Estelle lightly pursed her lips, not sure if she should thank
Yvonne.
At this moment, Yvonne’s phone rang. She picked it up and took a glance, then said to Jonathan, “It’s Riley. I need to take this.”
She pushed open the glass door and walked into the yard.
Only Jonathan and Estelle were left in the living room, and the atmosphere felt even more awkward.
Jonathan took a piece of chocolate cake from the plate and had it, inadvertently frowning. How could she enjoy eating something
so sweet?
Nevertheless, he didn’t put it down and continued to eat, quickly finishing half of it.
Estelle suddenly spoke up, “Do I need to move out of the Royal Mansion?”
Jonathan paused, a hint of loss in his eyes as he stared at her, “Where are you planning to move to?”
Estelle lowered her head and said softly, “I’ll figure something out.”
Jonathan choked on a mouthful of cake, struggling to swallow it. He put down his plate and coldly said, “I have other properties,
so I won’t miss that one. You can stay there for now.”
Estelle lowered her eyes and said, “I’ll transfer this month’s rent to you.”
Jonathan pursed his mouth full of chocolate, about to speak when Janice came downstairs, “Estelle!”
Estelle stood up, “Mrs. Lamont!”
Jonathan put down his cake and stood up, saying to Janice, “You can chat with Estelle, I’ll go upstairs.”
Janice smiled, “Okay, it’s just a few words. It won’t delay you and Yvonne.”
Jonathan glanced at Estelle and gave a light smile, “No problem!”
He left after speaking.
Janice sat opposite Estelle, her expression apologetic and sincere, “Estelle, I think I should apologize to you first. I introduced
you to Matthew without asking your opinion and I hope you can forgive me.”
Estelle shook her head, “It’s alright, thank you for liking me so much!”
Janice’s gaze became even gentler, “I just like how sensible you are, so I couldn’t help but want to introduce you to Matthew
because I really like you! It’s not a courtesy, nor is it hypocrisy. I really felt

a connection with you from the first time I saw you!
Estelle’s eyes were calm as she smiled lightly.
Janice conted, “If Matthew’s situation has caused you any trouble, I sincerely apologize”
“No, Matthew is very nice. I just don’t want to be in a relationship for now,” Estelle replied.
Janice smiled, “Matthew is now working in H City, and he might be there for a year or two”
Estelle was somewhat surprised, “When did this happen?”
“It was very sudden. The lab said it was a temporary transfer, arranged by the higher-ups. Matthew left in such a hurry that he
probably didn’t have time to say goodbye to you,” Janice explained.
When Estelle was working at Midnight Bar, Matthew would occasionally call and ask her out. She turned him down twice, and he
