After finishing the statement, Estelle could go home first while waiting for Yulia to completely wake up and explain what had happened.
Millard had been waiting outside. Once Estelle got in the car, she apologized, saying, "I'm really sorry for dragging you into all this."
Jonathan coldly chuckled, "When he was covering up your identity for you, wasn't he your accomplice? What's there to apologize for?"
Estelle was taken aback, and recalling what had happened before, she felt even more guilty towards Millard. "You didn't punish Millard afterwards, did you?"
"No!" Millard immediately responded, "Mr. Lamont let me off the hook and didn't punish me severely."
From his words, Estelle could tell what was going on, and she felt even more uneasy. "I'm really sorry!"
"Mrs. Lamont, you're too polite. No need to apologize!"
Upon hearing his address, Estelle's expression changed. Before she could say anything, Jonathan sarcastically said,
"Aren't you supposed to apologize to me instead?"
"For what? For not having Millard file for divorce back then?" Estelle retorted.
Jonathan was stunned. When put this way, he should be thanking Millard instead!
Seeing Jonathan's dumbfounded expression, Millard, who usually had a poker face, couldn't help but smirk. Fearing Jonathan might notice, he quickly wiped the smile off his face and focused on driving.
Jonathan turned to Estelle and said, "Let's go to the Royal Mansion!"
Estelle shook her head and said, "No, to Sunset Ridge."
Knowing that she was hurt, Jonathan could only yield to her.
He also understood that he couldn't rush things with Estelle; there was plenty of time after all.
Once they arrived at Sunset Ridge, Estelle thanked Millard before getting out of the car. Jonathan grabbed her wrist and said, "I was nearly scared to death; aren't you going to thank me?"
Millard thought to himself, 'Who's the one banging his head against the wall in impatience?'
The next morning, as soon as Estelle woke up, she received a call from Jonathan: "Does your wound hurt?"
"It doesn't; it's scabbed over."
Jonathan's voice sounded a bit lazy and low in the morning: "If you feel like working, go ahead. I'll handle the police station stuff. If your wound still bothers you, then rest at home. I don't think Yulia will be able to film today either, so you wouldn't have much to do there."
Estelle nodded and replied, "Alright, I'll arrange things on my own."
"If anything comes up, remember to call me."
"Sure!"
After hanging up, Estelle got ready to change and head to the film set. A batch of extras' costumes were being delivered today, and she needed to count and record them.
