Though he wasn’t a virionso, he had unique insights Into music that Estelle found enlightening
Previously, Michael had deliberately called her “Essie” in front of Julian just to provoke him
Now that they had become friends, the nickname had stuck. It no longer felt strange when be used it.
Extelle flashed a faint smile. “Susan think she’s covered her tracks perfectly, but in reality, there are loopholes everywhere. Today, I’ll ensure the whole world sees
her true colors.!!
Ever since Susan appeared in her life, Estelle had suffered more than her fair share of grievances.
She despised Susan but had never thought of utterly destroying her. After all, when a man cheated, the blame laid mostly with him.
There was no smoke without a fire, after all. It was pointless to place all the blame on the other woman. If she couldn’t keep a man’s heart, that was on her
If it wasn’t Susan today, it could just as easily be another woman tomorrow.

Harold entered with a strange expression on his face. “Mr. Graut, I just received some portant intomation.” Julian’s gaze slatted to him. “What is it?”
Harold hesitated, his lips pressing together as if sure how to speak. A thin layer of sweat had alady toned on his forehead.
“Ms. Summer’s pressconterence is not to apologize. It’s to play a video!
“It’s footage from the accident scene” Harold’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He seemed reluctant to continue “Mr. Grant, you should see it for yourself.” With that, he handed juliana tablet.
Julian took it and saw that the video was less than a minute long Then, he played the video.
As the footage played, his pupils suddenly contacted, a flicker of disbelief Hashing through his eyes.
The seconds ticked by, and soon, the video ended.
A sullocating silence filled the offer. The footage had captured the entire accident–clear as day.
