Estelle walked into Henson’s room. He quickly closed his game, took a glance at the time, and grumbled, “Why are you half an hour late? What on earth were you doing on your way here?”
Estelle sighed softly. “This is why I never wanted you to know. You get my dilemma, right?”
“You’re already the apple of the family’s eye. What dilemma could you possibly have?” Henson asked being puzzled.
“Why don’t you try and see?” Estelle asked, raising an eyebrow.
Henson smirked, ‘Alright then, let’s get the class started!”
He opened the book and randomly said, ‘Next time the school asks for parents to attend, if you go, you can’t be pretending to be my parent anymore, right?”
Estelle glanced back at him, “I wouldn’t say those previous times were impersonations.”
Henson was amused by her confidence, and complained, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I was on pins and needles!”
“I was too!”
“What were you on edge about?” Henson asked curiously.

“I was afraid that your uncle would find out that I wasn’t impersonating, and then I would end up actually impersonating!” Henson laughed out loud after trying to digest all of what she had said, “So, you care about my uncle that much!”
Estelle sat at the desk, her gaze under the sunlight was resolute yet gentle. She quietly expressed her feelings,
“Of course!”
After the class, Estelle went to find Janice to assure her that Norah’s tears weren’t because of a breakup, but due to some work stuff.
Janice was relieved as she said, “I thought she was crying over a break up, that really had me worried for a moment.”
“Don’t worry. If anything happens to Norah, I’ll certainly let you know.”
“Great!” Janice nodded happily, “I feel much more at ease with you around.”
Suddenly, Estelle felt like she really took on the responsibility of being an aunt.
After talking to Janice, Estelle went to find Norah to go to the barbecue restaurant together.
On the first floor in the living room, Jonathan was having a chat with Geoffrey Lamont. Seeing her coming downstairs, he stood up right away and curiously asked, “Are you going out?” Estelle nodded, “Norah and I are going to see Xavier.”
Jonathan nodded, picked up his coat and expressed his desire to accompany them, “I’ll go with you.”
Estelle bid Geoffrey goodbye. Catherine heard the noise and came over. Knowing that Estelle and Norah were about to head out, she frowned in reluctance, “Can’t you wait until after dinner?” Jonathan chuckled, “I’ll bring Estelle back tomorrow, no rush, don’t fret.”
Catherine smiled gently, saying, “Alright, I won’t hold you up then.”
Even though Estelle was still not quite used to it, she appreciated Catherine’s kindness. After saying goodbye to her, she left the Lamont family’s mansion.
Jonathan drove, Estelle and Norah sat in the back.
Estelle pondered for a while, then said to Norah, “Once we get to the shop, if Luisa isn’t there yet, don’t mention this to Xavier.”
Norah nodded, “I know, without any proof, even if I tell him, Xavier won’t believe it.”
“What’s going on?” Jonathan asked while looking at the rear–view mirror.
Estelle relayed the whole story about Zachary getting a girlfriend.
Jonathan nodded nonchalantly. He had seen much of that and was pretty used to it.
When they reached the barbecue restaurant, it was already lunchtime. The place was crowded, and Damian and the others were running around like headless chickens. They were about to greet the customers who just walked in, but when they saw it was Estelle, Norah and the others, they immediately came over and enthusiastically asked, “What brings you guys here?”
