    Jonathan Lamont looked ahead calmly and said, “Estelle Macin, we need to talk


    He didn’t call her E, as he used to.


    Estelle was taken aback, seemed to have a hunch, and nodded slowly, “Okay”


    The two returned to the Royal Mansion, and no one spoke any more along the way Back home, Estelle


    got the point, she asked Jonathan, ‘Actually you didn’t go abroad, did you?”


    JonathanMooked at her indifferently, “Estelle, I’m giving you one chance. Tell me how many things


    have you been hiding from me?”


    “A chance?” Estelle frowned at him, “What do you mean? I’ve already exined to you about Xavier


    Flemmings. We’re just friends, there is no love between us.”


    “Fine!” Jonathan’s tone was cold, “Then tell me, how did you meet him? How long have you known


    each other?”


    This side of Jonathan seemed foreign to Estelle, she shook her head slightly, “Are you interrogating


    me?”


    Jonathan sneered, “You say there’s nothing going on, but I just heard Xavier say he likes you!”


    Estelle’s eyes widened, “Impossible!”


    If Xavier liked her, he would have made it clear long ago. Plus, Xavier knew about her and Jonathan.


    How could he possibly like her?


    They were friends, like rtives, but definitely not lovers!


    Jonathan sat on the couch, looking at Estelle with a cold tone, “Could I have misheard?”


    Estelle closed her eyes, she knew Jonathan wouldn’t lie to her, but she didn’t understand why Xavier


    would say such a thing.


    Jonathan’s gaze became heavy, “Estelle, who matters more to you, me or Xavier?”


    Estelle looked into his eyes and said honestly, “You both mean a lot to me. Xavier is like family, and you


    are my lover.”


    “What if I asked you to choose between us? Choose me, and you can’t see Xavier anymore. Choose


    him, and you’ll lose me!”


    Estelle frowned deeply, “Jonathan, you know I can’t choose!”


    “Give up Xavier, don’t see him anymore, and we can be as we were!” Jonathan stared at her.


    Estelle shook her head, “You and Xavier aren’t at odds, why are you making me choose?”


    “I’ve known Yvonne since we were kids. If you told me you didn’t like her, I would never see her again!


    But now I tell you I don’t like Xavier, and you can’t choose me alone?”

    Jonathan’s gaze gradually darkened, like a turbulent whirlpool in the deep sea. His whole persona


    seemed shadowed. There was no more warmth in his eyes for Estelle.


    Estelle suddenly felt scared, she crouched down in front of him, looking at him sincerely, “Jonathan,


    Xavier and I are just friends, close friends. He’s my teacher, my friend, please believe me!”


    Jonathan’s eyes were devoid of light, he gently touched Estelle’s face, caressing it just like countless


    other nights. But the words he spoke were devoid


    of warmth.


    “Estelle, let’s break up.”


    Estelle looked at him in disbelief, “What did you say?”


    “Let’s break up. I’m tired of it!” he said.


    He had always thought that what Yvonne told him wouldn’t affect his love and trust for Estelle, but now


    he had to admit, the rift had already taken root between them.


    Even if he acted as if nothing was wrong, kissing her passionately, his heart was no longer filled with


    the tenderness of before.


    Until Victor showed up, until he saw her being intimate with Jason, his heart had cooled.


    And Xavier’s incident was just a spark that made him realize they could never go back to the way


    things were!


    So, breaking up now was a good ending, at least when he thought of her in the future, there would still


    be many beautiful memories.


    If they were to wait until the truth came out, and they both detested each other, then their rtionship


    would truly be a total mess!
