Chapter 294


    Estelle asked Hans to continue ying the game for her and walked into the living room.


    Elizabeth tentatively asked, “Do you know Mr. Lamont?”


    Everyone’s eyes fell on her, filled with doubt, questioning, and uneasiness… especially Sabina, who sta


    red at Estelle intently.


    Carme’s gaze flickered, ncing at Simone and slowly clenching her hand.


    Bet, the one who was both the most clear and confused about Estelle’s and Jonathan’s rtionshi


    p, knew that Jonathan didn’t like Estelle and had called off the engagement. But then, what did Mird


    mean just now?


    As he was hesitating whether to tell everyone about Estelle’s rtionship with the Lamont family, he su


    ddenly heard Estelle say, “I used to be a tutor in the Lamont family.”


    Everyone stared at Estelle with wide eyes. Sabina secretly breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her ga


    ze. Carme’s tense face also rxed without a word.


    So, she was just a tutor in the Lamont family!


    Bet immediately said, “That’s right. I just said that Estelle had always been a tutor. I just forgot to m


    ention she was a tutor in the Lamont family.”


    “Why didn’t you say that earlier?” Elizabeth looked at Bet reproachfully, then she smiled at Estelle.


    “How did you end up tutoring for the Lamont family?”


    Estelle exined, “I was a ssmate of Mr. Lamont’s niece.”


    With that exnation, everything was clear. Elizabeth’s attitude became even more amiable, “I knew ou


    r Macin family’s daughters couldn’t be wrong. Tutoring is decent work. Quit your other job, and if you


    don’t have enough money, just talk to grandma!”


    Though she’s just a


    tutor, given Mird’s attitude just now, the Lamont family treated Estelle quite politely and seemed quite


    close. Elizabeth took a closer look at Estelle’s


    face. Her delicate features were quite pleasing and made her the most beautiful among her granddaug


    hters.


    No matter if Jonathan liked Sabina or Estelle, they both belonged to the Macin family.


    That way, the rtionship with the Lamont family seemed to have gotten closer.


    Estelle’s face was calm and unaffected. “Yes, I will be quitting the job at Midnight Bar soon.”


    Elizabeth nodded in satisfaction and looked at Simone. “You should also care more about Estelle. After

    all, you’re her biological mother!” Carme suddenly looked up, her gloomy gaze sweeping back and fo


    rth between Estelle and Simone. In fact, Elizabeth’s words were just a reminder for Simone to care mor


    e about Estelle. But what Carme thought was that Elizabeth was telling Simone that Estelle


    was her only daughter!


    Simone awkwardly nodded, “Yes, I know!”


    Estelle suddenly felt


    likeughing. Her status in the Macin family was nothingpared to Mird’s simple remark.


    Natalia, standing behind Elizabeth with a sullen face, wondered how Estelle, who nobody liked, had su


    ddenly taken all the attention that should have been Sabina’s?


    Especially when she saw Leonie’s ambiguous smile, it felt like she was gloating over their misfortune!


    Isn’t she just a tutor? Can that evenpare to the closeness of being a CEO’s secretary?


    Natalia sneered in her heart, disgusted with Elizabeth and Terrence’s fickleness!


    During dinner, Elizabeth specifically asked someone to arrange Estelle’s seat closer to her. Estelle, not


    used to being stared at by everyone, she chose to sit in a less conspicuous spot.


    Hans asked Estelle puzzledly, “Why are grandma and the others suddenly being so nice to you? Did th


    ey find out that you’re amazing?”


    Estelle didn’t know why Hans was so persistent in thinking she was amazing but didn’t exin, just sayi


    ng, “Haha, probably!”


    Hans looked smug. “I told you, they’d find out you’re amazing sooner orter!”


    Estelle just smiled, not responding.


    After dinner, Estelle went to


    the restroom. As she was washing her hands, Sabina came in, standing beside her to touch up her ma


    keup.


    “Just focus on being a tutor and don’t even think of unrealistic things. Don’t embarrass us!”


    Estelle looked at the cold and arrogant Sabina in the mirror, narrowed her eyes and said softly, “Just fo


    cus on being a secretary. Work and family matters are separate, and it’s not up to you to decide!”


    Sabina’s face darkened, and her eyes seemed somewhat sharp. “Estelle, I’m telling you this for your o


    wn good. Even I wouldn’t dare have any improper thoughts about Jonathan.”


    Estelle wanted to say, “The things you don’t dare to do, I’ve already done it!”
