Chapter 1489
Bet reasoned, "I guess it''s Estelle."
Simone chuckled, "Does she have that much influence?"
"Let''s not get onto that right now, Mr. Lamont is here, I need to go say hi, bring Carme over in a bit,"
Bet said seriously, then added in a special tone, "After all, today is about celebrating Carme''s
sess. Mr. Lamont showing up deserves a personal thank you from Carme."
Simone''s eyes flickered as she smiled and said, "Sounds good, I got it!"
Once Bet was off, Simone found Carme who was chatting with her friends, called her aside and
asked with a smile, "Mr. Lamont is here, did you see him?"
Carmeughed, "The man even my grandpa tries to butter up. How could I have missed him?"
Simone raised an eyebrow at her, "Carme, you don''t have a boyfriend, do you?"
"No, not at all!" Carme denied instantly.
"Good!" Simone''s eyes gleamed, "Actually, the Macin family and the Lamont family have had some
connections for quite some time. Although we''re not as powerful as the Lamonts, but with you being so
outstanding, if our families could be united through marriage, it''s possible."
Carme was shocked by Simone''s words, "Mom, you mean, me and Jonathan?" She never dared to
dream of a man like Jonathan, he was way out of her league!
"I wouldn''t have dared to think about it either before, but things have changed now. You''re famous,
talented and beautiful, a truedy! Jonathan came to your celebration, he might have seen you on TV,
and he must like you a lot to show up!" Simone got more and more excited, "So, thinking it over, it''s
totally possible!"
Carme blushed shyly, "Sabina is much better than me, she has been around Jonathan for years and
she''s just a secretary, would Jonathan like me?"
"Not many men like strong women like Sabina. Men prefer women who are capable yet gentle, you
have an edge over her in that aspect!" Simone continued, "Carme, the reason I didn''t want you to
have a boyfriend was to have you marry high. In the whole J City, there''s no higher ce than the
Lamont family. If you could marry into the Lamont family, your life would bepletely different, you
understand?"
"I understand!" Carme thought there''s no woman in J City who wouldn''t understand this!
Carme was also swayed by Simone''s words, "But would Jonathan like me?"
"Whether he likes you or not is not the most important thing, what matters most is whether you''re

suitable! Jonathan took over the Lamont Group a long time ago, he hasn''t married in all these years,
but he must have had many women, what kind of woman hasn''t he seen? For a man of his status, a
woman with suitable background and intelligence means much more than looks, plus you''re pretty,
what''s there to be afraid of?"
Simone held Carme''s hand, "You just need to rx, your dad and I will n everything out, we''ll
make sure you get to marry into the Lamont family."
Carme''s heart pounded, unable to hide her excitement and nervousness, "Mom, if I could be a
part of the Lamont family, I promise to make your and dad''s life better."
Simone smiled faintly, "As long as you''re happy, that''s the best."
Carme blushed and nodded.
"Alright, let''s go say hi to Jonathan." Simone took Carme''s hand and headed for the VIP table.
Once they reached the VIP table, Simone led Carme forward, with a broad smile, she greeted, "Mr.
Lamont, hello!"
Jonathan looked up, his eyes slightly cold, his face expressionless, "Mrs. Macin!"
Simone gently pushed Carme forward, "Today is Carme''s celebration, thank you foring in
person, let Carme pour you a ss of water."
Natalia immediately saw through Simone''s intention, she gave Sabina a look. Sabina nced at
Carme coldly, her eyes still aloof.
Carme lowered her eyshes slightly, her face had a gentle smile, she squatted down elegantly and
poured a ss of water for Jonathan.
