Two bodyguards escorted Antonia down the stairs, while another four remained at the rooftop entrance, eyes
fixated on Estelle in the distance, ensuring she wouldn’t harm Cliff.
Estelle and Cliff had a lengthy half-hour discussion.
As soon as the bodyguards saw Estelle heading towards the helicopter parked nearby, they rushed over, keeping
Cliff behind them.
Suddenly, Estelle turned around and said to Cliff, “Tell your daughter to stop causing trouble. If she dares to hurt
Magdalen again, I swear I’ll take her down! Since you’ve brought up Gab in our conversation, you must have figured
out who I am. Don’t doubt my words!”
Cliff replied with a stern voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on her.”
“That’s for the best,” Estelle said before she headed straight for the helicopter.
The bodyguards looked up as the helicopter took off, its roaring blades drowning out their involuntary gasps of awe.

their face-to-face confrontation.
“How’s Antonia?” Cliff asked, turning around.
A bodyguard stepped forward to report, “She was quite shaken up, and she’s taken a hit to the face.”
Cliff nodded slightly, his expression grim, “Keep an eye on her. Make sure she doesn’t have any further contact or
involvement with those people from J City!”
“Yes, sir!” the bodyguard responded immediately.
Upon returning to J City, Estelle first stopped by the hospital before heading to the film set.
She was greeted by Magdalen, who had donned a white dress paired with a beige coat. Seeing Estelle, Magdalen
immediately approached, “Where’ve you been?”
Estelle didn’t hide the truth, “B City.”
“You went to see Antonia, didn’t you? She’s the one who sent that music box, right?” Magdalen pressed with a
frosty tone.
The more Magdalen thought about it after Estelle left, the more things didn’t add up. Estelle’s abrupt departure
meant she must have learned something. Rushing to the set confirmed her suspicion; Estelle hadn’t returned.
When Magdalen couldn’t reach Estelle by phone, she was beside herself with worry, nearly ready to seek out
Jonathan!
“It was her doing, but I’ve already given her a lesson. She won’t be stirring up trouble for the time being,” Estelle
said calmly. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
Magdalen looked her over, “How did you discipline her? How’s the injury on your back?”
“Just a scratch, it didn’t stop me from giving her what she deserved,” Estelle chuckled. “Don’t you have faith in
me?”
Magdalen glared at her, “You should have taken me with you!”
“I was enough on my own!” Estelle raised an eyebrow. “Right now, you don’t need to worry about anything. Just

Magdalen wrapped her arms gently around Estelle, her voice low but firm, “Ella, don’t risk yourself for me. If
anything happened to you, how could I go on alone?”
Estelle let out a sigh. “Don’t make it sound so tragic. Even Jonathan didn’t say such things!”
“If Jonathan knew you’d gone to B City alone, he’d be furious! He’d probably storm over to B City and level the
Crawley family if you were hurt!”
“That’s why we won’t tell him. It’s all resolved now,” Estelle patted her shoulder. “I won’t let myself get hurt. I fear
that if anything happened to me, it would delay your wedding, and Morrison would never forgive me!”
Tears shimmered in Magdalen’s eyes as she scoffed, “If he dares to complain about you, he can have the wedding
by himself!”
Estelle shot her a glance, “Stop being so stubborn. Who’s the one who’s been eagerly counting the days till the
wedding?”
Magdalen hugged her tighter, her whisper resolute,
“Nothing is more important than you!”
