Chapter 844
Estelle unwrapped the bandages, frowning, “How did a bunch of nobodies hurt you this bad? Did you go soft on
them?”
Xavier chuckled on the bed. “Even a thoroughbred home may stumble, dont forget our motto, it ain’t an injury if
you ain’t dead
Estelle laid his clothes aside. “Stay prone, it’ll heal faster
Though the doctor advised Xavier to stay prone, he found it uncomfortable.
He lay sideways, “After all this, I’m sure Norah can’t stay at the store any longer. The Movie Center is a mess, and
she shouldn’t stay here. She wouldn’t listen to me, so you’ll have to convince her
Estelle nodded, “Norah wouldn’t leave before, and now that you’re hurt because of her, do you think she’ll leave?
Let’s wait until you’re healed, then I bring it up
“Fair enough!”

Norah had been feeling guilty about Xavier’s injury, so she took the opportunity to apologize to Estelle, I’m sorry,
this won’t happen again!”
“Xavier doesn’t blame you; you don’t have to apologize to me Estelle patted her shoulder, “This little injury is
nothing to him, don’t overthink it!”
Norah nodded, “Til take good care of Mr. Flemmings!
“He’s got Zachary and Damian. Just take care of yourself!”
Norah shrugged, “I still feel like a burden!”
“Absolutely not! Estelle laughed.
“Just kidding!” Norah whispered, “Estelle, you didn’t tell my family about the kidnapping, did you?”
“No.”
“Don’t ever tell them, or I won’t be able to work at the store anymore. Norah pleaded
Estelle took the opportunity to say, “The Movie Center is indeed not very safe: After this incident. Xavier is also
worried. Have you considered what I said before?”
Norah bit her lip, slowly nodding, “Once Mr. Flemmings is healed, quitt
“Zachary and the others can take care of his injuries. If you don’t trust Zachary, there’s still Damian. Even if you
stay at the store, you can’t look after him alone!” “I know, but if I leave now, I’ll feel even more guilty. At least I can
help out in the store. Now that Mr. Flemmings is injured, we need more hands!”
Seeing her stubbornness, Estelle simply agreed, “When Xavier is better, you can quit?”
“Mm!” Norah nodded, “I’ll work another month at most, then go home to prepare for graduation and postgraduate
studies. Can you keep the secret for another month, and not tell Henson or my family?”
Estelle promised her, “Yeah!”
The film shoot was coming to an end. At noon that day, Director Mayfield treated everyone to a meal, ordering a
feast from the barbecue restaurant.
Yvonne was removing her makeup in her dressing room after wrapping up for the day. The past few days of filming
hadn’t gone smoothly; she was having trouble getting into character
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA week had passed since her conversation with Jonathan, but aside from looking upset at the time, he had shown
no other reactions.
Jonathan had been acting as normal during the gathering organized by Charlie a few days ago, coming and going
with Estelle. There was nothing unusual.
What was he thinking?
Estelle was clearly up to something Didn’t he care at all? Was he waiting for Estelle’s knife to be at his throat before
he’d believe her?
The outside was bustling, pulling her out of her thoughts. She glanced outside through the half–open window and
saw the staff from the barbecue place delivering
food.
Her casual gaze landed on a girl in a barbecue restaurant uniform, busy unloading food from the truck
Yvonne thought she was seeing things until the girl turned around and she confirmed it was Norah!
What was Norah doing here?
Yvonne wondered, and said to her assistant, “Go get Gwen, if she’s with Estelle, tell her I need to go over the lines
with her!”
“Right away!”
