Chapter 1289


    “No way!” Sabina sneered, “Estelle and Jonathan? In what universe?”


    “You’ve got a point!” Natalia agreed, “Sure, Estelle is pretty, but there are plenty of gorgeous women


    out there. It’s not like Jonathan hasn’t seen any.”


    Sheughed scornfully, “Based on how your grandparents were fawning over Estelle, you’d think the


    was already the queen of the Lamont family. What a joker “Don’t worry, whoever ends up as Jonathan’s


    wife, it won’t be Estelle Sabina said dismissively and went into the living room.


    After calling Estelle, Bet was summoned by Terrence to his study.


    Terrence looked furious, 1 need you to bring Estelle home night away!”


    Bet frowned, “I would love to, but Estelle doesn’t want toe back”


    “Isn’t it because you and Simone have been treating her poorly? Look at how things are going.


    Jonathan obviously values Estelle. Even if he doesn’t want to marry her, she still holds weight in his


    eyes.” Terrence’s eyes sparkled with excitement, “And look at Carme. I thought she was capable, but


    she’s been slipping. I know you’ve raised her for over twenty years and you care for her, so I won’t


    force you to cut ties. Just marry her off soon, that would be a contribution to the Macin family.”


    “Well” Bet hesitated, 1 will discuss it with Simone”


    “Simone’s thinking is too simplistic, all from a woman’s perspective. You can’t always side with her. You


    need to bring Estelle back as soon as possible and build a rtionship


    “Alright”


    After his conversation with Terrence, Bet left with Simone and Carme.


    Given the circumstances, there was no reason for them to stay any longer.


    The ride home was silent.


    Once home, Carme saw Simone’s sombre face, kept her mouth shut, and went upstairs


    After a while, she heard a noise from the next room. She peeked out, then quietly left her room to


    eavesdrop


    Simone was fuming. “Estelle really knows how to y her cards to get Jonathan on her side. She must


    be thrilled watching us getting scolded by him.”


    Bert frowned, “It’s not really Estelle’s fault what happened today. We can’t just listen to Carme


    anymore!”


    “Carme is as useless as theye!” Simone raged, I thought we could rely on her to uphold our


    dignity, but she’s a huge letdown!”


    “Seems like she’s no match for Estelle now!” Bet’s voice came through the door


    Simone said, “But we’ve already offended Estelle, do you think she’ll forgive us?”


    Betined, “That’s because of the things you said earlier. You left no room forpromise.”


    “How was I to know Carme would be so useless” Simone said angrily.


    “Today, both Jonathan and Henson were supportive of Estelle, and it seems she’s doing well in the


    Lamont family. She gets along with Yulia, and her career is going well. We definitely screwed up.”


    Bet sighed, “But we’re still family, there’s still a chance to make things right.”


    Simone asked, “What do you mean?”


    1 mean, we could invite Estelle toe live with us. If she feels our kindness, maybe her heart will


    warm up to us Bet suggested.


    Simone thought for a moment and shook her head, “If we do that we might lose Carme.

    She had raised Carme as her own daughter since she was little. Even though she got angry at times,


    her feelings for her were real.


    Bet didn’t respond.


    Simone then asked. “What did your father talk about when you went to the study today?”
