The pain on her chest flared up, and Estelle immediately knelt on the floor in pain, not recovering for a long time.Harold was so scared he was about to cry, “Aunty! Are you okay? Uncle, why did you push her!”The lobby manager furrowed his eyebrows as he said hesitantly, “I did not use that much force, how could it be so painful? Are you setting up a scam?”Estelle shut her eyes, waiting for the pain to subside.“Oh, I know now, you brought this kid over to scam me? Oh, your tactics have improved nowadays? Lady, why don’t you get a proper job instead of scamming people? I’ll count to three, if you don’t leave, I’ll call security to chase you out.”Harold was still beside Estelle with worry, crying as he said, “Aunty, I won’t come in anymore. I’ll just wait outside. Are you injured? I’m scared…”Estelle’s face was pale, she shook her head, “I’m alright, don’t be sacred.”“Aunty…”Estelle held his hand, “Don’t worry, I’m here, I’ll protect you, I won’t let anyone bully you.”T
The director was also scared, and hurriedly brought Estelle a hot drink, “Miss, take a seat first, have some hot tea to soothe your nerves. I’ll take care of this blind thing. You’re still sick, so don’t get too worked up.”Estelle waved her hand indicating there was no need, “I’m fine.”The director immediately relaxed, “It’s good that you’re fine, then what do you think we should do about it? Fire him, or something else? You just say the word, I’ll get it done.”Estelle patted the back of Harold’s hand, “Harold, wait for me at the resting area there.”“Aunty, I’m not leaving, I can protect you!”“Good boy.” Estelle said, “Go look for your mother.”Mentioning his mother, Harold finally relented.Estelle pushed him gently, “GO on, I’m fine. I’m just going to say a few words to this man.”“Oh, okay, Aunty, you need to call for me if they bully you again! I’ll definitely come protect you!”“Okay.”Looking at Harold leave, Estelle averted her gaze.The lobby manager seemed to h
Estelle turned her head around, looking to the hotel entrance.She saw the familiar black Cayenne slowly stopping at the entrance.Was it sir…She had never seen Sir’s face during the day, even in the room, the lights were forever off. Yet now, the day was still bright…The door to the driver’s seat opened, and out came a pair of black leather shoes and grey pants. Following that, a young man came out of the driver’s seat.He looked to be around thirty years old, and was very tall. He had a grey suit on, and had his back to her, seemingly talking to the doorman at the entrance about something.After that, he slowly turned around, and walked inside the hotel.Estelle felt her breathing stop, until she saw his face…“Miss Sanders.” The young man walked in front of her, smiling as he greeted her, “We meet again, Sir asked me to bring you somewhere.”It was not Sir.It was the driver that sent her to the Sanders family last time. Estelle knit her eyebrows subtly, “Right now?”
“Miss Sanders, Sir is waiting for you inside. Hurry upstairs, it’s room number 005.” The driver said. Estelle nodded, and headed inside.“Miss, our shore is full today, I’m sorry.”Estelle said, “I’m going to Room 005, my… my friend booked the room there.”The person at the counter looked at the records and said, “Very well, I’ll bring you upstairs.”Room 005 was on the second floor, they had walked up a long flight of stairs.Before, it was nothing to her.However, her wound was still somewhat painful, the push by the lobby manager earlier could have reopened it. Right now, every step she took would move the muscles around her abdomen, causing her a lot of pain.She retrieved a painkiller from her bag and swallowed it, shaking the bottle and noticing the pills were getting lesser.“Miss, it’s here.”The employee opened the door to the room, but noticed it was completely empty.“I’m sorry to ask but, is my friend not here yet?”The employee was not clear either, “We just r
With only a wall between them, Estelle listened until her head hurt. The two voices next door, she was extremely familiar with them!Camilla Gionni and Sherry Zia, they were there?!‘You heard it yet?’ Sir’s message was sent over.Her hands were trembling as she replied, ‘I heard it, I heard it all.’‘Do you feel hate?’‘I do!!!’‘Do you want revenge?’Estelle bit her lips, even her typing was stronger, ‘Yes!’‘Then be with me, give birth to my children, I’ll help you.’…Walking out off the room, when she walked out of the restaurant, the employee even stopped her, “Miss, are you not eating anything? Our prawns today are very fresh.”Estelle did not have time to think about that, her mind was filled with the message Sir had sent earlier.Be with him…However, she did not even know who Sir was at that moment.Sir was just like a calm sea, nothing could be seen on the surface, but there was no way of telling how deep he was inside. As for why Sir wanted children…It’s
Sometimes he had some evil thoughts. Estelle had lied to him for the Sanders family, but she did not get a good ending later on. She was tossed aside after Zavier used her, and was now struck by poverty. It was all retribution from the heavens, and was her retribution for lying to him for money.If he really believed that though, then he would feel happy.However, for some reason, ever since he saw her spend three million in one go for a couple’s ring, envy and hatred seemed to drown his heart.IT was not even that long, and she found a new man?Before, she lied to him repeatedly, saying she had a terminal illness and even saying the bastard she birthed before was his, and what happened in the end?In just a dozen or so days, her attitude completely changed.Did she find a new target?Skyler laughed coldly, it was not enough for her to swallow the entire Flynn family, now that she saw he could no longer be lied to, she immediately found a new target. He wondered who the new unlu
Abigail quickly sent the company’s information and address to Estelle.The interview timing was quite quick, it was set at two in the afternoon the next day.Abigail told her on the phone that the company had accepted a large project recently, and needed people urgently. If she passed the interview, the salary would not be low, so Estelle needed to properly prepare for it.Estelle immediately went only to look into the company when she got back to the hotel - The Only Jewel.The name was quite meaningful. A person only had one chance in their lives to pick out a wedding ring from the company, it represented loyalty and exclusivity to only one another. However, The Only Jewel also drew a lot of discontent because of that, because a lot of rich customers on their second marriages were rejected by them, not accepting it no matter how high the price that was offered, which offended quite a few people. When Estelle saw that, she felt like the boss was quite straightlaced. The compan
“That’s right, there is one thing that breaks my heart. My heart hurts so much I’m about to die…”“Yes… is it because of that woman you love dearly?”Sir let out a bitter laugh. “Who else would it be? In this world, only she is able to strike on my weak spot, I’m afraid. Estelle, are all of you women so heartless and indifferent?”“Huh?”Sir seemed to be talking to himself. “Heartless, hard-hearted, without a shred of compassion, and hurting others with her words.”Estelle was sad hearing this. Those feelings, she knew all too well.Those years when she was still Mrs. Flynn, every word from Skyler was like a sharp knife, carving slices of bloody flesh off her heart.Every time, it was like cutting a new wound over an old one.There was such hopelessness in that kind of heartache. Recalling it, she felt her heart tighten repeatedly at the thought.“Sir, actually, when it comes to heartlessness, it has nothing to do with men or women. Some people are just heartless, they are rut
