Chapter 172: Personal Affairs
Mr. Mysterious slowly got close to her and sat beside her. Then he gently took her hand and
comforted her with a soothing voice, “I see. You are not afraid of this tie. You are afraid because you
thought I was Cristofer, right?”
After a few seconds, Estelle nodded slowly.
Mr. Mysterious chuckled and flicked her forehead. “How is it possible? You think too much.”
Estelle also felt that she had overreacted just now. She sighed slightly and said, “Sir, I really hope
the cooling-off period ends as soon as possible. I even wish that I could travel through time and go
through the divorce procedures immediately. I don’t want to have anything to do with Cristofer
anymore.”
“Time passes quickly. You’ll divorce him soon,” Mr. Mysterious said calmly.
The tie had ruined the passionate atmosphere, and both the two of them hade back to their
senses.
Feeling embarrassed, they fell into silence.
After a while, Mr. Mysterious spoke first, “It’s time to sleep. Let’s go to bed. We’ll begin our hard
battle against your uncle tomorrow.”

“What? You are going to resign?” Bob eximed in shock. “Miss Hudson, you’ve only been working
at Only Love Jewelry for a few days. Why do you want to resign? Are you not satisfied with the
sry? Mr. Roberts ising back soon. You can ask him for a pay rise. You are so capable, and
he will definitely agree to your request.”
Since Estelle worked in thepany, Bob had been good to her, so Estelle was very grateful to
him.
“It’s not about the sry, Bob. I’ve been well-paid enough. And I like to work here. But I have some
personal affairs to deal with, so I can’t work here anymore.”
“Personal affairs?” Bob frowned tightly and asked, “Does any otherpany want to poach you?”
“No,” Estelle exined with a smile. “It’s about my family.”
“All right.”
“I’vepleted all the design drawings of the jewelry ordered by Katrina, and I’ve put them on Mr.
Roberts’ desk. Besides, I can also finish the design drawing of the jewelry ordered by Justin today.
So... I want to go through the resignation procedures before I get off work,” Estelle stated.
Hearing this, Bob was even more surprised. “Are you in such a hurry?”
“Yes. I’m sorry, Bob. After I finish dealing with everything, maybe we will still be able to work
together if there is a chance.”
It was until then that Bob was relieved.
‘Fortunately, she resigned because of personal affairs, not job-hopping. In this case, she cane
back to work after dealing with her family’s affairs. That’s good.’
Bob heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Miss Hudson, thepetition in our industry is so fierce now.
It’s not easy to hire a capable and creative designer like you. Several excellent designers who
worked in ourpany resigned with the excuse of having personal affairs to deal with before. But
not long after that, we found that they were working in otherpanies. So just now I...”
Estelle chuckled and said, “I can understand you.”
“Estelle, if you don’t need to go through the resignation procedures, I will hold your job for you. After
you deal with your family affairs, you cane back at any time. What do you think?”
After thinking for a while, Estelle still refused him. “Thank you, Bob. But I must go through the
resignation procedures. We will have a chance to work together in the future. I promise you.”
Since she had said so, Bob knew that he couldn’t change her mind at all.
Then he could only nod and say, “All right. But today is Sunday. You have toe again tomorrow if
you want to go through the resignation procedures.”
It took Estelle the whole afternoon to finish all her work. After that, she went home in a hurry to pick
up the children and took them to Williams’ Residence to see Gary.
Gary, who couldn’t wait to see his great-grandchildren, called Estelle.
“Estelle, it’s inconvenient for you to take care of two kids alone. How about I send my driver to pick
you up?”
“No, thanks, Grandpa Gary. It’s very convenient to take a taxi to the Williams’ Residence. We’ll be
there soon,” Estelle said politely.
Gary knew that she didn’t want to see Cristofer, so after a discussion with her, they agreed to meet
at the Williams’ Residence.
When Estelle and the children arrived there, she saw Gary and Luke standing at the gate and
waiting for them with eagerness.
After paying the taxi driver, Estelle got out of the car with Yvonne in her arms, followed by Yohan.
“Mom, who are we going to meet today?” Yohan asked.
“We’ll meet your great-grandpa. He is your dad’s grandpa,” Estelle answered.
Yohan nodded in confusion, not knowing the difference between Grandpa and great-grandpa.
Yvonne was in high spirits today. Lying in Estelle’s arms, she looked around with her round and big
eyes, which were full of curiosity.
“Estelle!” Luke ran over when seeing theming. When he saw Yvonne, he couldn’t help but shed
tears. “Sorry, Estelle. I was so careless that I didn’t take good care of Yvonne before. It’s all my
fault.”
“Uncle Luke, do you want to hug Yvonne?” Estelle asked with a gentle smile.
Hearing this, Luke was touched and asked with his eyes full of tears. “Estelle, don’t you me me?”
“Of course not, Uncle Luke. After all, the person who hurt Yvonne was not you,” Estelle said as she
carefully put Yvonne into Luke’s arms. “Speaking of which, I should thank you for taking care of
Yvonne before.”
Holding Yvonne in his arms, Luke sighed with emotion. “It’s my pleasure. I’ve worked for the
Williams family for so many years, and I watched Mr. Williams grow up. I take him as my child and
Yvonne as my granddaughter. I’m happy that I can look after Yvonne.”
While they were talking, Gary walked over as he kept gazing lovingly at Yohan.
It was not until he stopped before them that he shifted his gaze and greeted Estelle with a smile,
“Good afternoon, Estelle.”
“Grandpa Gary, good afternoon,” Estelle said. Then she whispered to Yohan, “Yohan, this is your
great-grandpa.”
“Hello, great-grandpa. I’m Yohan. Nice to meet you, “Yohan greeted Gary in a sweet voice.
Gary was delighted and said, “Hi, Yohan. Nice to meet you too. It’s windy outside. Let’s go into theN?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
house.”
Although it was not Estelle’s first visit, she still felt a little uneasy.
Luke had always held Yvonne in his arms and looked affectionately at her with a happy smile on his
wrinkled face.
