Chapter 969


    Everyone burst intoughter, setting a chill vibe.


    Estelle scanned the room, not spotting Jonathan.


    Amiee strolled over, grinning. “Heard you’re back at Snowy Studios, how’s it feel?”


    “Just back on set, all good, work’s back on track.”


    “Awesome.”


    As they chatted, Charlie called her over, “Estelle,e join the card game.”


    Estelle and Amiee walked over Yvonne joined too, smiling, “Seeing Estelle reminds me of our old card
