Estella could only endure it for now.
After the meal, Jonathan sent Estella back to her house.
Estella had thought that Jonathan had arranged this date to say something more.
But he didn’t say anything, as if he really just wanted to have a meal with her.
She couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Could it be that Jonathan just had a liking for me, but not to the extent of wanting to be in a relationship with me?
Am I overthinking it?
But the way he treats me, the look in his eyes when he is with me, and that kiss on the forehead that day, none of it seemed innocent.
Alright, forget it, since he isn’t going to say anything, I will just pretend not to know.
Letting things take their own course was actually quite nice.
Jonathan sent her to her doorstep and waved goodbye.
After entering the house, Jonathan took off his coat and changed into his indoor slippers.
Then, he took a bottle of chilled mineral water from the fridge, opened it, and took a sip.
Bailey came over and rubbed against his slippers.
He squatted down and patted its head.
He poured a little dog food for it, watched it eat quietly, and then slowly reached into his trouser pocket to take out a square box.
Opening it, there was a necklace inside.
I had originally planned to confess to her tonight.
But then Nathaniel showed up.
I saw that she didn’t give Nathaniel even a single glance.
It seemed like she didn’t care about Nathaniel at all anymore.

However, I still noticed that when she was eating, the speed of her chewing had slowed down.
So I thought, maybe she hadn’t really let go completely.
I had always been very patient.
In work, and in relationships.
Once I made up my mind, I wouldn’t let go easily.
But a one-sided intense affection could burn both parties.
I’m afraid that if I go all in and she holds back, over time I will lose control of his emotions due to the unequal feelings and end up hurting her.
Give her a little more time.
I want her to experience a comfortable, unforced relationship with him.
After coming out of the restaurant, Nathaniel directly had the driver take Isabelle back.
Isabelle was very unhappy about the sudden cancellation of the date.
Nathaniel hadn’t wanted to spend this birthday with me tonight.
It was only because I had been persistent that he had agreed to meet me.
But just because he saw Estella, he canceled the date on the spot.
Why?
Didn’t he like me the most?
When had the balance in his heart shifted towards Estella?
Isabelle’s sense of crisis was growing deeper.
But she felt powerless against Nathaniel at the moment.
It used to be him chasing after me.
During the three years I was abroad, he had tried every way to keep in touch with me.
I had always thought I could hold on to him tightly.

I never expected that there would come a day when I would lose him.
But I’m not willing to accept it.
Clearly, we are the most compatible couple. How can he change his mind?
The more Isabelle thought about it after getting home, the more unwilling she felt.
She made a phone call to her assistant.
“Find out all the information about Chase Chandler’s wife and daughter for me.”

On Monday afternoon, Wayne invited everyone for afternoon tea again.
Estella’s share was different from others’, much richer.
A few male colleagues who were close to Wayne teased him.
“Are you secretly in love with Estella, Wayne? You’re treating her differently from us.”
“Yes, you can’t be so biased!”
Wayne deliberately put his hand on Estella’s shoulder, grinning in a playful manner.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Estella is shy and can’t bear such teasing from you.”
Estella frowned, trying to pull away Wayne’s hand.
Wayne had already removed his hand, pretending casually, “Estella, see which one you like. If you don’t like any, I’ll buy you something else.”
