Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 360

He didn't care about the others at all, feeding Estelle ice cream as if nobody else was around, showing extreme affection for her.

Without looking up, Estelle noticed the sharp gaze from the man across the table. She glanced at Manley, took the spoon from his hand, and whispered, "Stop faking it, no one cares."

Manley leaned down, lowered his head and smiled shallowly, "I'm not faking it, okay? I just want to spoil you. I'll do this even if Jonathan isn't here."

Estelle lowered her head to eat her ice cream, and the two of them whispering together looked like they were sharing sweet nothings.

Hattie looked at Estelle curiously and couldn't help but admire her a bit. How did she get involved with Manley after leaving Jonathan?

Bagot smiled flatteringly, "Mr. Scott is really taking good care of Ms. Macclain. Ms. Macclain, do you like ice cream? I have shares in the hottest Sweet Whispers Bakery in J City, so how about I give this dessert shop to you?"

Estelle paused while eating the ice cream, she realized that Bagot wanted to please her so much that he even offered her such an expensive gift, probably not only for Mr. Daly's movie, but also to hide his son and actor scandal. Once this matter is exposed, it will also have a great impact on his company.

Manley revealed a disdainful sneer, "do you think my Estelle can't even afford ice cream? Does she need someone else to give it to her?"

Bagot’s face paled, "No, I didn't mean it like that. I mean, I'll do whatever it takes to appease Ms. Macclain!"

Manley picked up a napkin and wiped his hands, saying lightly, "Fine, then. I don't like the lead actress in this film. Change her to Estelle. If you agree, I'll destroy the photos. How about that?"

Once he finished, the faces of the people sitting around changed, especially Hattie's, who looked flustered and unconsciously glanced at Jonathan.

Jonathan's gaze was deep, and he pursed his lips, "When did Ms. Macclain start wanting to be an actress?"

Manley retorted, "Do you think my Estelle is less beautiful than Ms. Hattie, Mr. Lamont?"

Magdalen saw Manley setting Jonathan up again and couldn't help but want to laugh.

Mr. Daly quickly said, "Mr. Scott, are you joking? Ms. Macclain is very beautiful, but the actors are professional. And besides, the film is already halfway done, so it's impossible to change them now!"

So Jonathan's choice was to invest capital to keep Hattie, or agree with Manley's words and change the lead actress to Estelle.

But Estelle was not an actress at all, and Mr. Daly wouldn't agree either. If Jonathan agreed to change, he would definitely put himself in an unjust position.

At Jonathan's level, money is a trivial matter to him, and reputation and fame are more important than anything else.

Choosing not to change the actress, in a sense, would mean that Jonathan chose Hattie!

In the end, Manley left Jonathan with no room for choice!

Estelle didn't speak up. She couldn't possibly act, and she knew that Manley, the jerk, didn't have good intentions in the first place.

On the surface, he seemed to be venting for her and not letting go of Hooper's issues, but in reality, he wanted to anger Jonathan and stir up the relationship between her and Jonathan.
