Chapter 1806


    It seemed that the Evert family was having second thoughts about the wedding, but Charlie wasn''t too


    sure about the details. "The two of them never really clicked, so a breakup isn''t surprising," he said with


    a light chuckle.


    Estelle thought of Marina and felt a pang of regret.

    Carson Foster was never serious about rtionships, and to Jonathan and Charlie, this was nothing


    new. They quickly changed the subject after a brief chat.


    Dinner was winding down, and while Jonathan and Charlie talked, Estelle took Kya out to the balcony


    to y.


    Emily approached and asked, "Didn''t Magdalen have a bridal makeup trial today? She hasn''t sent me


    any photos, and I''ve been dying to see!"


    Estelle grinned, "There was a bit of a hup, so the trial''s been rescheduled to three days from now. I''ll


    send you pictures then."


    "Magdalen is going to look stunning in the wedding dress you designed," Emily said with a warm smile.


    "Oh, by the way," Estelle said, looking up, "Magdalen wants Kya to be a flower girl. She asked if you


    could check with Charlie to see if that''s okay?"


    "Of course, it''s no problem. My brother''s wedding was supposed to have Kya as a flower girl too, but it


    didn''t work out. She''s mentioned it a few times since, so this will make up for it!"


    Emily scooped up Kya, "How would you like to be a flower girl for Magdalen?"


    Kya''s eyes lit up, "Is Magdalen marrying a prince?"


    Emily and Estelle exchanged a nce and couldn''t help butugh as they nodded, "Yes, Magdalen is


    marrying her prince and they want you to be their flower girl!"


    "Yay!" Kya pped her hands and skipped off to find Charlie to share the exciting news.


    Charlie lifted Kya up and fed her a spoonful of tapioca pudding. Kya held the small bowl herself, her


    cheeks puffed out as she ate, looking utterly adorable.


    Jonathan asked, "Your parents still aren''t epting of Emily?"


    If they were, Charlie wouldn''t have moved in here.


    Charlie''s handsome features softened, "My mom has some old-fashioned ideas about social standing,


    but it''s not a big deal. If Emily is willing to marry, we can get the certificate in no time."


    Jonathan chuckled lightly, "Emily has cut ties with the Sullivan family, so naturally, she doesn''t want you


    to do the same!"


    "The more considerate she is, the more it pains me," Charlie frowned slightly. "It''s not as serious as she


    thinks. My parents are reasonable people. eptance is just a matter of time."


    Jonathan nodded, "Your attitude is what matters most!"


    Charlie smiled thinly, "That''s why I''ve never seen it as an issue."


    For him, the hardest part had always been winning over Emily''s heart. Once he was sure of her


    feelings, nothing could stop them from being together.


    Around nine o''clock, Kya was getting sleepy, so Estelle and Jonathan said their goodbyes.


    Back upstairs, Estelle let go of Jonathan''s hand, "Go take a shower. I have a couple of design sketches


    to finish up. I''ll join you after!"


    "Workingte?" Jonathan''s eyes were soft, "Leave it till tomorrow!"


    "It''s just a small thing for my senior tomorrow morning," Estelle pushed him toward the master


    bedroom, "Go on, don''t disturb me!"


    Jonathan looked back at her, "Make it quick!"


    "Will do!" Estelle nodded, closed the door behind her, and headed to the study.


    In the study, she sat down, took off her outer garments, and nced back at a scar on her shoulder.


    She had endured many injuries, but this was a minor one—she didn''t mind it, but she didn''t want


    Jonathan to worry.


    Estelle turned on herputer and logged into Eagle Valley, as usual, to search for news about Gab.


    Lately, things had been quiet in Tripe—too quiet forfort.


    Today, Cliff had told her that his people in Tripe had crossed paths with Gab''s men, who were also


    looking for him. He had also shared some other bits of information, some true, some false.


    Estelle sifted through the data on the Eagle Valley informationwork, trying to piece together which


    parts of Cliff''s information were useful and which were urate.


    As time ticked away, she suddenly heard footsteps outside the door. Estelle immediately switched to a


    phone screen and quickly pulled on a cardigan.
