Chapter 265

Millard said in a plain tone, “Mr. Lamont has something to deal with, so he asked you to go back first.”

Estelle nodded. Midnight Bar was close to the Royal Mansion and located on the main street with bright lights, so she usually went back on her own even if Jonathan didn’t come. Today, Jonathan specifically asked Millard to wait here to send her back to the Royal Mansion, probably because he was worried that the Burke family would cause her trouble again.

Even when he was angry, he still cared about her safety.

Back at the Royal Mansion, the room was pitch–dark, and for a moment, Estelle felt a little disappointed.

She understood why Jonathan was angry. He was upset that Norah was bulled by Nicolas and the Burke family, and he was angry with her for hiding it from him, especially since Manley even had helped with this.

This was the Lamont family’s business, but he didn’t even know it and secretly owed Manley a favor.

What she didn’t know was that Jonathan was angry not only at her for keeping secrets but also at her for confronting the Burke family members alone and even taking action without his knowledge. Fortunately, he was at Midnight Bar today. What if he wasn’t? What if Austin intercepted Estelle with others at another location?
