Estelle turned her head, “Are you scared?” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Jonathan said seriously. “Of course not.
“Well, then there’s nothing inappropriate about it, and horror movies help me fall asleep. I always sleep
so well after watching one.” Estelle sat cross–
legged on the sofa, grabbed a bag of snacks, and watched with interest.
Ten minutes later, Jonathan suddenly stood up, “I just got sleepy, I’m going to bed first, you watch it you
rself.”
Estelle came back to reality from the movie plot and laughed quickly, “See? I told you, horror
movies can help you sleep.”
Jonathan stood in the dim light, his face expressionless, ignored her, and turned to
walk into his bedroom.
Estelle watched the movie by herself until nearly three o’clock, then she went back to her room, brushe
d her teeth, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep quickly, sleeping soundly until daylight.
When she opened the door and came out, Jonathan was setting up breakfast, which was still delivered
from the hotel.
Hearing the door open, Jonathan turned to see Estelle wearing a white silk nightdress, her hair smooth
and scattered around her ears, her slightly chubby face looking soft and harmless, like an innocent chil
d.
Estelle said good morning and smiled, “I thought you had already left”
Jonathan continued setting up breakfast in a light voice, “It’s the weekend today, not much going on, I’ll
take you back with me later.”
Estelle sat across from him, took a bite of French toast, and asked, “How did you sleep last night?”
Jonathan looked up and gave her a glance, nodded slightly. “Not bad.
Estelle laughed. “Then next time you can’t sleep, I’ll watch a horror movie with you again.”

Jonathan took a sip of his freshly ground coffee and suddenly found it difficult to swallow. He looked up
at her and saw her sincere smile. He didn’t say anything else for a moment.
After breakfast, Jonathan drove her back to the Lamont family home.
As soon as they entered the yard, Milo, who was playing on the grass, saw Jonathan and immediately j
umped up and sprang towards them.
Estelle’s face changed, and she quickly moved behind Jonathan, grabbing his clothes tightly.
Jonathan really wanted to ask her if she could fall asleep if Milo were guarding her bedside at night.
How could she think that watching horror movies could cure insomnia?
He squatted down and stroked Milo’s head, then turned to the butler Fabian, “Please take Ms. Macclain
inside.”
“Yes!” The old butler looked at Estelle, kind and gentle, ‘Ms. Macclain, please follow me.”
Estelle immediately followed
the him into the villa, and her heart was still pounding even after entering the door. Suddenly, she miss
ed Max a little. Two days later, Estelle and Isis were having lunch outside when they
received a call from Hans.
Hans sounded a bit anxious, “Ella, can you do me a favor?”
Since the family gathering the other day, Estelle, Henson, and Hans often teamed up in video games a
nd had become cooperative teammates.
Of course, Henson didn’t know about their relationship and thought they were just friends they met in th
e gaming world.
Estelle put down her fork, her smile warm, “What’s up, you can tell me.”
Hans’s voice was rough and changing, “My sister wants to get
into Snowy Studios. She said she has a friend inside who can help her, and she keeps asking my mom
for a lot of money to bribe her way in. I suspect that person is scamming her!
Estelle’s eyes narrowed, “What’s that person’s name?”
“Baber”
Estelle said, “Okay, I got it, I’ll help you find out if there is such a person in Snowy Studios?”
Hans immediately said. “Thank you, Ella
“You’re welcome”
After hanging up, Estelle continued eating Isis looked up, “What’s going on?”
Estelle focused on eating, said lightly, “nothing big, don’t worry about it‘
