Chapter 760

Mr Mayfield paused after speaking, surprised to see Yvonne here as well

Moreover, Yvonne was sitting next to Jonathan, leaning in to light his cigarette From their entrance point of view, they were awfully close

Mr Mayfield shot an instinctive glance at Estelle, feeling the timing of their arrival was just plain horrible

Jonathan looked up and immediately spotted Estelle in the crowd. He felt uneasy, squinting slightly and removing the cigarette from his mouth Yvonne straightened up nonchalantly, stood up, and greeted them with a polite smile. "Hey, so you guys are dining here too?"

Mr Mayfield responded with a smile. "Yeah We heard you and Mr Lamont were here and thought we'd drop by to say hi

He walked over poured Jonathan some wine, and said, "Here's to Mr Lamont for all his help this year"

Jonathan, taking his eyes off Estelle, responded calmly. "No need for formalities."

Mr Mayfield then made a toast to Charlie. Carson, and others, and the atmosphere gradually warmed up.

As everyone was busy toasting and chatting. Jonathan turned to Estelle He noticed her pale complexion and she was lost in thought with her head lowered

He felt a sudden irritation. There was nothing going on, but she had to stumble upon it Now it seemed like he was always smoking behind her back and even involved Yvonne

Mr Mayfield, noticing Estelle still standing there, gently smiled, "Estelle, Mr. Lamont has taken good care of you too Why don't you make a toast to him too?"

Estelle nodded slightly, walking toward the main seating area, with Carson promptly handing her a wine glass.

She filled her glass, her voice as steady as ever, "Mr Lamont, here's to you"

Jonathan watched her, attempting to detect any unusual emotions on her face However, there was no sign of resentment or jealousy in her

eyes.

Just as Estelle was about to take a sip. Jonathan grabbed her wrist Unfazed by the crowd, he took her glass, and downed it in one go, saying. "This drink is strong, don't get drunk and come looking for trouble The room went silent for a moment, with everyone pretending they didn't hear anything.

Estelle frowned, her ears gradually turning red She pulled her hand away and stepped back.

When did she ever cause trouble when drunk?

He did that on purpose

Yvonne had been watching them all along, her mood plummeting after hearing Jonathan's indulgent tone. Her good mood, had evaporated.

She caught Josiah's worned glance, gave a bitter smile, and shook her head slightly, indicating she was fine.

Jonathan put down the glass, turned and said, "Since Mr Mayfield is here, let's all go over it'll be more fun together"

Mr Mayfield was pleasantly surprised. "That would be great

Everyone stood up, heading towards the next door

Yvonne trailed behind, turning to Estelle, she said with a smile, "Estelle, I was just lighting Jonathan's cigarette Don't get the wrong idea"

Estelle appeared calm, "No misunderstanding, you're overthinking

Yvonne laughed, "Actually, it was me who encouraged Jonathan to try smoking for the first time I wanted to try it but he wouldn't let me. So I told him to try it while I watched To prevent me from trying, he started His first attempt made him choke so much that he teared up leven teased

him about it?"
