Chapter 122: Hold On
Estelle smiled helplessly and said, “Mr. Roberts, I hope we can be frank with each other.”
“I’m sorry, Estelle. I still can’t tell you anything yet,” Justin said.
“I think I have known everything I should know. Can’t you still tell me the truth?” Estelle asked.
“Estelle, there are still many things that you don’t know. You may never know what someone has
done for you. What you know now is only the tip of the iceberg. I can’t figure out everything yet. So
I’m sorry that I can’t tell you anything now,” Justin replied to her with his voice full of helplessness
and embarrassment.
Estelle was speechless.
“Estelle?”
“I’m listening.”
“Let’s not talk about this. Let’s go out for lunch, shall we? I know that your favourite restaurant is a
seafood restaurant with a transparent tunnel. How about we go there for lunch?”
“Mr. Roberts,” Estelle licked her dry lips and said with a sigh. “I’m tired.”
“I see. Then you may have a rest now. I’m downstairs. Call me if you need anything,” Justin said
helplessly.
“I don’t need anything,” Estelle said.
“Maybe you will need me.”
“Mr. Roberts, you must have a lot of work to do,” Estelle said, “I can take care of myself. You may
go ahead with your work.”
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before Justin replied to her, “Okay.”

After feeding Yvonne, Estelle slept for the whole afternoon and had a lot of dreams.
She dreamed about Cristofer, Gretchen, and Mr. Mysterious. But strangely, she didn’t dream about
Justin.
Estelle thought that maybe it was because she couldn’t confirm whether Justin was Mr. Mysterious.
She couldpletely rx when shey in Mr. Mysterious’ arms, watching the stars or sleeping
soundly. But when she was with Justin, she would feel uneasy even if he was a little closer to her.
While Estelle was lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang.
As soon as she answered the phone, Reba’s excited voice came.
“Estelle! I’m at Ingemar’s ce now! Guess what I’ve found!”
Estelle asked, “What did you find?”
“I checked the surveince video again and found that the license te number of the ck
Maybach in the surveince video is different from that of Justin!”
Hearing this, Estelle sat up in shock and asked, “What? They are different?”
“Yes, I’ve confirmed it again and again. Although the two ck Maybach cars look the same, their
license te numbers are indeed different! Estelle, Justin may not be Mr. Mysterious, but he is very
likely to know Mr. Mysterious, and they may have a good rtionship!”
“...”
“Estelle, wait a minute. I’m asking Ingemar to check the owners of all the ck Maybach cars in
Hadale. We’ll know the identity of Mr. Mysterious soon. Hold on!”

In the Hudson’s House.
“Did Cristofer really say so?” Melody asked with a darkened face.
“Yes, he rushed to the rooftop terrace before me and said he wanted to find Estelle. Mom, he still
can’t get over her!” Gretchen said in a sobbing tone. Her eyes were red from crying.
Melody said, “Calm down and don’t worry. He is soft-hearted to Estelle now just because they have
a child. Oh, that child is so lucky. She drank so much spirit and should have been dead. But
unexpectedly, she was saved in time and is still alive!”
Speaking of this, Gretchen became even angrier and said, “Mom, if only I could have a baby. If I
could have a baby with Cristofer, maybe he would have returned to me.”
Melody patted her hand gently andforted her, “Since the domestic doctors can’t cure you, how
about we go abroad for treatment? There are many famous medical experts abroad.”
“But I can’t leave here. If I leave, Cristofer will have more time to stay with Estelle!” Gretchen
sobbed.
“Then what should we do...” Melody said with a worried look. “s. Logically speaking, you only
have abortions a few times and should be able to get pregnant again. I’ve seen someone who had
abortions more than ten times but still could give birth to many children.”
Gretchen said, “Mom, we shouldn’t have targeted those rich old men before. They are so old and
ugly, and sleeping with them made me feel sick. Humph. They are all bastards. They said they
would divorce their wives and marry me. But when I told them that I was pregnant, they all broke up
with me and disappeared!”
“It was normal that they did such a thing,” Melody said. “Those old men were all love jerks. They
wouldn’t divorce their wives for their mistresses at all. If we targeted a young and rich man like
Cristofer earlier, maybe you would have be the hostess of a rich and powerful family now. It’s
my fault. I made the wrong decision back then.”
“Mom, Cristofer loved Estelle very much back then. Even though we initially targeted him, he
wouldn’t fall in love with me,” Gretchen said.
“He did love Estelle before. Butter, he still fell in love with you, didn’t he?” Melody patted her chest
with confidence and said. “Trust me, Gretchen. I’ll help you. As a woman, it’s better to marry into a
rich family than to have a good career. Do you still remember your Auntie Lucy? She is an able
woman who works hard, but so what?”
“She depends on herself and always has to workte to earn a living while I have married into a rich
family and enjoy my life every day. I can do everything that I want, such as going to a beauty salon,
shopping, and drinking afternoon tea with other richdies. My life is much better than hers. I also
want you to live such a good life.”
Gretchen nodded and said, “Mom, I know all that you did was for my own good.”
“It’s good that you can understand me. Cristofer is a really good choice. He is not only rich but also
young, handsome, and promising. As long as you can coax him to get married to you, you will also
be able to enjoy a good life. Even if he wants to divorce you in the future, if you disagree to get
divorced, he can’t do anything about it and have to support you. It’s much better to marry him than
to be with those old men.”
Hearing this, Gretchen bit her lower lip and still looked worried. “Mom, what do you think I should do
now? How about we try to find another way to kill Estelle’s child? Without that child, Cristofer will noTêxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
longer contact or think about Estelle.”
After thinking for a while, Melody asked, “What’s Estelle’s attitude toward him now?”
“I don’t know. Isn’t she with Justin now? Justin is so protective of her and even willing to make up
the money that Cristofer disinvested from thepany. He must love Estelle very much.”
