Chapter 1279


    Jonathan held Estelle’s hand tightly and grinned, “If she’s all that, do you think I stand a chance?”


    Estelle’s eyes widened slightly as she clutched Jonathan’s hand.


    What’s he babbling about in front of Henson?!


    Henson started chuckling, “Can’t argue with that, Ms. Macin is a bit too perfect, even God’s jealous,


    got to throw a stumbling block in her way”


    He picked up the puppy as he spoke, “Allmen, say hi to Ms. Macin


    It’s called Allmen?” Estelle raised an eyebrow


    Henson boasted. “Yeah, I named him. Cool, huh?”


    Estelle gave an awkwardugh, “Sounds great, really great, absolutely smashing!”


    Henson grumbled. You’re faking it


    Before Estelle could respond, Jonathan said, “You asked me yesterday what reward I should give you,


    I’ve thought about it, I’ll have Mird buy you some workbooks right away, you’re going to love every


    single one of them.”


    Henson sucked in a breath as he noticed Estelle standing behind Jonathan,ughing. He got the


    message, these two had made up, they were husband and wife, he was the odd one out.


    1 apologize, Ms. Macin, yourughter was very genuine, very beautiful!” Henson knew who to butter


    up now.


    Estelle giggled, “Alright, time for ss””


    Jonathan, holding her hand, led her into the mansion, exining, “Henson misses Milo, but I can’t

    separate Milo and Max, so I brought him a puppy. I’ll tell Fabian to keep Allmen caged over the


    weekend.”


    A servant happened to pass by, Estelle quickly let go of Jonathan’s hand, maintaining a proper


    distance, andughed, “No need, even if I’m scared, I won’t let a puppy get to me!”


    “Why would you be scared?”


    Jonathan looked at her intently.


    Estelle’s heart fluttered, her lips curled up involuntarily and she looked away.


    Today was the day of the family gathering at the old house, Simone took Carme to the Macin


    Mansion early in the morning, the whole Macin family was there.


    As everyone chatted, they brought up the brand Yulia was endorsing. Simone in particr mentioned,


    “Carme is now Yulia’s personal designer, they are quite close!”


    Everyone’s eyes turned to Carme.


    Carme stiffened and quickly avoided their stares, pretending to go grab a juice from the coffee table.


    Nataliaughed, “Carme’s career is soaring!”


    Sabina, sitting next to Simone, looked at Carme with a dismissive smile on her face.


    Terrence put down his book, and kindly said, “Yulia is a celebrity, but her family in H City is well


    connected, her father just got promoted, it’s good to build a rtionship with her


    Corley Macin immediately said, “I’m currently bidding on a project in H City that happens to be


    managed by the Mentin family. Carme, could you introduce me so that I can meet Mr. Mentin through


    Yulia?”


    The Macin family’s influence in H City was not strong, which worried Corley, If Carme could help


    him meet Mr. Mentin, the problem might be solved. Natalia happily said, “I heard that the Mentin family


    only has one daughter, Yulia, their precious gem. If Yulia could put in a good word for us in front of Mr.


    Mentin, our problem could be solved.”


    “Yes” Corley looked at Carme with a hopeful face, “Carme, you must help me!”


    Hans Macin and Sallie Macin, who were ying a game on the side, couldn’t help but snicker at


    everyone’s excitement.


    Simone said smugly. “Why don’t we have Carme invite Yulia over first, so we can all get acquainted.”


    Even Bet joined in, “Helping the family is a given!”


    Everyone was excited, no one noticed Carme’s pale face, or the sweat on her forehead.
