“What?” Estelle looked up, puzzled
“I came home last night to find all your stuff gone Thought you’d left me again, Jonathan murmured, stroking her
eyebrows and eyes, his gaze filled with love. For a moment there, I thought my heart had stopped”
Estelle felt a pang in her heart. She lowered her gaze, admitting, 1 admit, I was overthinking these past few days.
Especially seeing Yvonne sleeping in your bed, it really got to me”
1 know, it’s my fault!” Jonathan was quick to reply. Tve had the bed replaced already”
Estelle was taken aback, then she broke into a laugh.
“What’s so funny?” Jonathan’s eyes were twinkling, and his lips curled into a smile. “Wait till we get back to J City, I’ll
show you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEstelle was all smiles, her eyes curved into crescents.
Jonathan loved the way Estelle laughed. He couldn’t help but lean down to kiss her lips tenderly and passionately
Worried someone might pass by Estelle quickly pushed Jonathan away
“Let’s go for a meal”
“Sure thing!” Jonathan cleared his throat, took her hand, and they walked through the courtyard and corridor
towards the kitchen.
After the meal, Mr. Jarvis needed to rest. Estelle only left his room after he had fallen asleep
She and Jonathan had been up all night, so they went back to their room to catch up on some sleep.
Estelle suggested Jonathan sleep in the next room, but he adamantly refused. He promised he wouldn’t disturb her,
he just wanted to hold her while they slept. Nothing more.
Estelle couldn’t bear to be apart from Jonathan, so in the end, she invited him back to her room.
However, it turned out that men’s words couldn’t be fully trusted. When his peck turned into a full-blown kiss and
then moved down her chin, Estelle knew she shouldn’t have given in
“Jonathan, I’m feeling dizzy: Estelle murmured, hugging his arm and resting her forehead on his shoulder
“Suddenly? Should I get Dr. Ollie?” Jonathan asked, worried.
“No need. I’ll be fine once I get some sleep. Just let me be.” Estelle found a comfortable position in his arms, her
eyes closed.
Jonathan gently stroked her face, chuckling. “Alright, rest up. I won’t disturb you”
“You should sleep too,” Estelle mumbled.
Estelle hadn’t slept well the night before and was feeling drowsy. Smelling Jonathan’s familiar, comforting scent, she
quickly fell asleep.
“Sure thing”Jonathan held Estelle close. “Let’s sleep.”

Jarvis took her mountain climbing and promised to catch a wild rabbit for her. But suddenly, Mr. Jarvis was gone,
and she lost her way, falling off a cliff.
“Mr. Jarvis”
Estelle woke up with a start, only to be held tightly by Jonathan.
“Bad dream?” Jonathan held her close, kissing her forehead. “Don’t worry, I’m here”
Jonathan wiped the thin layer of sweat off her forehead, showering her with kisses.
Estelle opened her eyes, regaining her calm, though she looked a bit pale
“How long have I been asleep?” She tried to get up.”1 need to check on Mr. Jarvis!”
“You’ve only slept for an hour. Mr. Jarvis is fine; I’ve just checked on him.” Jonathan pulled her back into his arms,
patting her shoulder reassuringly. “Rest easy, I’m here for you and Mr. Jarvis”
Estelle looked at the neat row of buttons on his shirt, asking softly, “Haven’t you slept?”
1 caught some shut-eye. I don’t need much sleep. I can pull an all-nighter, no problem”
His deep, soothing voice brought comfort. “Sleep, I’ll handle everything”
Listening to his steady heartbeat, Estelle relaxed and fell back asleep.
