Chapter 25
Since Thmothy was unable to get through the crowd, he called out her name loudly, “Estelle!”
Hearing someone call her, Estelle turned around. When she saw Timothy and Dillon, she frowned immediately. She glanced at her anistant, pulle Yates, who also looked confused.
hulle shook her head slightly. “Ms. Sawford, we didn’t invite them.”
It was then that Estelle realized their intention. They weren’t here for her–they were likely after the collaboration.
She wasn’t interested in dealing with them, so she exchanged a few words with people nearby and then made her way to the lobby to prepare her speech.
Before she could leave, Timothy suddenly appeared and blocked her path, with Dillon right behind him
Dulon stared at Estelle with a joy in his eyes that he didn’t even realize was there.
“You’re back,” he said.
Estelle smirked mockingly. “I’m still alive, Mr. Waverly. I guess I didn’t disappoint you, after all.”
“I didn’t mean it that way,” he said, looking at Estelle, who was a stranger to him now.
The Estelle helaww had always been devoted to him. When had she ever spoken to him like this? But now, he couldn’t afford to be too cold toward her. He instinctively wanted to be kinder.
Since she had nothing to say to them, Estelle tried to walk past Dillon
just as she was about to leave, Dillon grabbed her wrist. “Can we talk??”
“Les po,” Estelle said coldly.
She looked up with disdain
Seeing Estelle’s clear selection, Timothy immediately pushed Dillon aside and stood in front of him
Timothy smiled and casually said, “Estelle, it’s so good to see you allve, Why haven’t you kept in touch with us over the years?”
A tinge of resentment appeared in Timothy’s eyes as he spoke,
Estelle laughed coldly. “Who are you to me? Why would I contact you?”
Fared with Estelle’s oelentless attitude, Timothy found himalt sprechless.
Cuble to handle her coldness any longer, he let out a sigh of frustration. “You weren’t like this before.”
Estelle scoffed again. “You said it yourself that was before, I’ve died once. I can’t afford to be naive. Should I just jump off another building and die again?
At the mention of suicide, Timothy suddenly recalled the truth he had uncoveted about the villa. His face instantly paled.
Dillon’s slurp gaze swept over Timothy, who seemed to be hilding something from lydin.
Then, he turned his attention back to Estelle. “Where are you staying now? Alictel?”
Just then, Alison, who had been completely ignated behind them, could no longer tolerate being overlooked and quickly stepped forward.
Me shot Estelle a colil glase but quickly replaced it with a smile.
“Estelle, you’re finally back. Do you know how heartbroken Timothy and Dillon have beenthese past | you weir really dead Yours up the act so well, Estelle:”
live years? You’ve really played it too well, Everyone thought
Timothy and Dillon both frowned at the same time. Five years ago, they had indeed seen Estelle die on the operating table. Could it be that Extelle was just taking hi
tan instam, both of them looked at her with more suspicion
Seeing how easily the two of thein began to doubt her after Alison’s few words, Extelle couldn’t help but studi.
Her bright eyes locked onto Alison’s, and her lips curled into a huli maile.
Alisonmort her gaze fearlessly
