Chapter 1119
As soon as she finished speaking and attempted to leave the car, Jonathan suddenly tightened his grip
on her arm. “So you’re just going to lie to me and then bounce off like that?”
Estelle looked back at him, “What do you propose we do?”
“Either you dine with me now, or you let me give you a kiss. Just a peck, and I’ll let you go.” Jonathan’s
handsome face was a blur in the dim light, but his eyes seemed to shine even more intensely.
Estelle glanced at him as their eyes met in the shadowy light, biting her lip softly, “You promised to give
me time.”
“I can keep my hands off you while you’re mulling it over, but I need some form of solace. Otherwise, I
might not hold out until you see the light.” Jonathan’s lips curled up slightly, but his tone was nothing
short of tenacious.
Estelle remembered him standing in line under the sun to buy her cake and looked up at him, “Just thisnovelbin
once.”
“Sure!” Jonathan’s voice suddenly dropped a few octaves.
He leaned into her and she involuntarily closed her eyes.
She felt him hesitate for a moment before his cool lips met hers. Her body tightened instinctively as
Jonathan, gripping her arm, deepened the kiss. Estelle didn’t resist, but Jonathan couldn’t feel any
warmth or dependence from her, not even close to the mutual pleasure they used to share when they
first got together
He knew, she wouldn’t trust him easily anymore. But the more he understood this, the more he yearned
for her response, the more he wanted to fill the void in his heart.
After a while, the surroundings seemed to darken even more before Jonathan slowly pulled away,
suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and chuckled, “That wasn’t so terrible, was it?”
He gently caressed her lips with his fingers, his eyes softer than ever. “You should go to Emily’s for
dinner. She made your favorite dish.”
“Okay.” Estelle left with downcast eyes, not looking back even after she entered the elevator
Jonathan watched her leave, sighing softly as he put away his emotions and drove away.
Standing in the elevator, Estelle looked at the mirror and saw the deep red color on her lips. She lightly
touched them, took a deep breath, and regained her calm.
She headed straight to Emily’s. Emily was still cooking in the kitchen while Kya was playing with a toy
Charlie gave her in the living room.
Emily stuck her head out of the kitchen and teased, “Have you been with Jonathan these past few
days?”
“I attended Carson’s eco-park opening ceremony. He just gave me a lift,” Estelle replied flatly, changing
her shoes.
Emily laughed and shook her head, “Looks like Manley is out of the picture.”
Only then did Estelle remember Manley. He hadn’t texted her for two days.
“Where’s Ms. Simmons?” Estelle walked into the living room.
“Ms. Simmons had some errands to run. I sent her home. Dinner’s almost ready. Go wash your hands,”
Emily said while busying herself in the kitchen.
“Estelle!”
Kya threw herself into Estelle’s arms, “I missed you!”
“I’m back now, aren’t I?” Estelle opened her bag and took out the souvenirs she bought from the eco-
park, “These are all for you. Do you like them?”
Kya’s face immediately lit up and she nodded vigorously, “I love them.”
“Put this in your castle. Let it guard your princess!”
Estelle took out a small horse model and placed it at the entrance of the castle model.
“Is this a donkey?” Kya asked.
