“What would I do there? Estelle asked casually as she packed up her things.
“My friend’s bringing his attractive sister to cheer him on. I can’t let myself
be embarrassed, can I?” Henson exined
Estelle chuckled, “Well, I’m not actually your sister!”
“Just
pretend to be for a little while. My actual sister has been really busytely, probably because she’s got
a new boyfriend!”
“You guessed wrong Your sister has actually taken up a part–time job to keep herself upied
Henson frowned, “So, are youing or not?”
“Of course!” Estelle eximed with delight. “I can’t let you lose face!”
Henson grinned, “I knew I could count on you!”
Estelle suggested, “I’ll head home first. Just give me the address, and I’ll take a taxi there”
That’s so much trouble, why don’t you stay for lunch and we’ll go together?”
“I have something to do at noon, don’t worry, I won’t bete!”
“Alright then, it’s at the same stadium we yedst time. Call me when you’re there!”
“Deal‘ Estelle slung her bag over her shoulder and said, “I’m off, see you this afternoon!”
Henson waved at her casually.
Estelle did have something to do in the afternoon She had agreed to have dinner at Old Mr Quintin’s wi
th Jason.
Jason picked her up in front of the University of J City and headed to Old Mr Quintin’s home in N City
Upon entering the courtyard, they heard people talking inside and saw Albert there as well
During dinner, Albert mentioned Carme, 1 heard she was fired by your studio, Mrs Macin called m
e yesterday saying Carme’s been really down, asking me to put in a good word for her and see if she
can get back in?”
Jason frowned and asked, “Didn’t she mention why Carme was fired?”
Albert shook his head, “No specifics, only that she was chased off by an assistant”
Jason instinctively looked at Estelle, feeling both pity and coldness Estelle’s mother, Simone, knew full
well that Carme was fired for giarizing Estelle’s work yet still used Estelle of chasing her away
How could a mother be so biased, especially when Estelle is her own daughter!
Estelle’s expression remained calm, though Old Mr Quintin urged her to eat more vegetables, saying h
e had grown them himself She obliged, eating a few bites and praising them before turning her attentio
n to the pork chops.
“If you see Mrs Macin, you can tell her directly that we have no tolerance for giarists, so she shou
ld give up any hope of returning! If she keeps talking nonsense, I’ll release the news and let everyone k
now about Carme’s giarism!”
Albert was startled and asked, “What do you mean? Carme giarized?”
“Yes, the evidence is conclusive” Jason said coldly
Albert’s face turned red with embarrassment, he frowned and said, “Why would Carme do somethin
g like that? She’s actually quite talented, just
a bit too eager for sess, especially under Mrs Macin’s influence, she’s be increasingly impet
uous”
It’s a matter of character“” Jason said bluntly
Albert looked even more ashamed, “I guess I failed as a teacher Please forget what I said earlier about
helping her
Jason gently said, “It’s not your fault”
Meanwhile, Old Mr Quintin seemed uninterested in the conversation, focusing solely on serving Estelle
food, worried she might not be happy and wouldn’te back next time
After dinner and sitting with Old Mr Quintin for a while, Jason took Estelle to leave
