Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1810

Estelle glanced up with a cool composure, "That was quick, did you wrap up your chat already?"

"Nah, I was just worried you'd fall victim to my mom's unique taste So I’m just coming down to check on you!" Jonathan descended two steps, stopping before Estelle and looked her over. "My Ella, you've got this magical touch that turns the drab into fab!"

Downstairs, Catherine was still lingering about. Feeling her cheeks warm, Estelle sidestepped to head upstairs, "I've got classes to catch!"

She walked into Henson's room, where he was deeply engrossed in his video game. He glanced up at Estelle and nearly launched his phone across the room in surprise.

His eyes went wide, "Everything okay with you?"

"Do I look weird or something?" Estelle asked, unflappable.

"It's fine, I guess," Henson said with a complex expression, "just feels a bit off, you know?"

He frowned, "Please don't tell me it was my grandma who picked that out for you?"

Estelle set down her bag and nodded, "Yep!"

Henson looked at her with pity, "You can't let her get away with everything. Otherwise, she'll push you even further. Next thing you know, it won't just be a dress."

Estelle was taken aback, "It can't be that bad, can it?"

"With my grandma, anything's possible," Henson said gravely. "You've got leverage with Jonathan on your side. Use it to fend off any outlandish demands!"

Estelle nodded in agreement, "Got it, thanks for the heads-up!"

"Don't mention it. I still owe you one for talking Jonathan into showing up at parent-teacher night!" Henson added.

Estelle flipped open a textbook, casually asking, "How did that go, anyway?"

"Not bad, just a bit more tense than usual," Henson recalled the image of Jonathan sitting there, making even the teachers nervous, and couldn't help but chuckle.

He looked at Estelle, "Next time, you should go in my stead. With Jonathan there, our teacher forgot half her speech. I was sweating bullets for her. Plus," he lowered his voice, "she's single and quite a looker. If Jonathan keeps showing up, you might find yourself in a pinch!"
