Chapter 249

Of course, he told himself it wasn’t Estelle he was addicted to, but her body.

Just so happens, she’s also very cute, making the whole thing a bit more interesting.

After taking a shower, Estelle went back to reading the book in the

same position as before, but she seemed a bit distracted, as if daydreaming. Jonathan sat

on the edge of the bed, leaned in, and kissed her gently on the face. “What’re you thinking about?”

Estelle looked up, put the book away, and asked, “What’s Norah been up to lately?”

“She’s been pretty free lately. I went home a few times and she was there. What’s up?” Jonathan leane

d in to kiss her, sounding a bit careless.

Estelle said, “I’m off tomorrow and I want to ask Norah to hang out. Wonder if she’s free?”

Jonathan paused and looked at her. “Her boyfriend’s been working, so he doesn’t have as much time t

o spend with her as before. She will be happy if you ask her out.”

“Alright, I’ll give her a call tomorrow morning.”

Estelle whispered and put her arms around the man’s shoulders…

In the middle of the night, Estelle woke up to find herself being held by him. As soon as she moved, he

tightened his embrace.

Estelle rested her forehead on his chest and listened to his strong heartbeat, suddenly feeling wide

awake.

Since when did Jonathan start staying in her bed after making

love? It seems like it started happening after their return from C City. They’d sleep in the same bed, cud

dling, whether it’s on the side or the main bed.

Some things have subtly become habits.

What if one day someone gives up on this habit? What about the person who’s left behind?

Estelle didn’t fall back asleep until daybreak, so when she woke up, it was already late.

Jonathan left her a message saying that he had to go to the company and she should have breakfast b

efore going shopping.

Estelle picked up her phone, wanting to go back to sleep when she suddenly saw something –

a black card on the bedside table.

She picked it up and saw it was an unlimited bank black card.

She instantly became wide awake and grabbed her phone to call Jonathan.

At the Lamont Group building, during a meeting, Jonathan

saw the incoming call, gave Chuck a signal and walked out.

Standing in front of the floor–to–

ceiling window in the hallway, Jonathan spoke in his usual tone but with gentleness in his eyes. “you ar

e awake?”

“Did you put the card on the dresser?” Estelle asked.

“Yes,” Jonathan replied casually and naturally, “There’s no password.”

“What do you mean?” Estelle chuckled, “Didn’t we agree…”

“Babe!” Jonathan interrupted her, “Think of it as a thank you for getting the earrings from Old Mr. Jarvis.

The value it brought far exceeds that

card.”

Holding the card, Estelle pursed her lips, “Alright then, I’ll let you get back to work.”

“Be safe when you go out,” Jonathan reminded her.novelbin

“I know!” She’s not a kid, after all!
