His mind was a total mess.
"Can you step out for a bit? I need some private." Jonathan said calmly.
"Sure, call me if you need anything." Wilma replied, then closed the door behind her.
Jonathan, sitting on the couch, forced himself to chill and to rethink the whole situation from scratch.
When Bennett said Estelle had come to see him at the hotel, he must have meant the Sapphire Hotel, where they first met.
So, when she said she was seeing someone else, she actually meant him!
But, at that time, he was in a bit of a pickle. Then Millard came in, and she overheard his conversation with Millard and his sarcastic remarks to Bennett from the bed, so she chose to leg it by jumping out the window.
The next day, they ran into each other again at the University of J City. By then, she knew his true identity but played dumb.
The third time they met, it was raining, and she walked out of a villa neighborhood. She wasn't there to tutor but to visit the Macclain family's house. But why she would leave alone in the rain was beyond him.
Later, she came to the Lamont family's house as a tutor.
Yet, he was still puzzled. How could she be Bennett's daughter? Wasn't she adopted by someone in C City? Why was her past such a mystery, a total blank? How did she come to know Xavier, Jason, and the others?
Jonathan was super stressed. He got up and paced the room again, stopping at the dressing table. The dressing table was neat, with only two books on it.
He pulled open the drawer to find some basic skincare products and another book hidden away at the back.
Jonathan pulled out the book, wondering why it was stashed away. He casually flipped it open to find a photo sandwiched between the pages.
He pulled out the photo and froze! The familiar forest backdrop, the familiar camouflage outfits. His arm rested on the shoulder of a skinny girl. Her eyes were cold and numb, like a wolf's.
He suspected Estelle had taken a photo from his study until he saw the date on the back of the photo. It was a blast from the past.
