HONEY, Love Me One More Time

Chapter 110: Yvonne Is So Clever

Looking at the apple peel, Estelle couldn’t help smiling and said with a nod, “I believe you. If there’s such a competition, you’ll win the gold medal.” Hearing this, Rebecca was happier. She cut the apple into small pieces for Estelle and then put a small piece in Yvonne’s little hand. “Little Yvonne, this is for you. It’s very sweet.” Yvonne blinked her big eyes and smiled at Rebecca as if she could understand Rebecca’s words. Since she had no teeth, she only licked the apple. Seeing her reaction, Rebecca said excitedly, “Yvonne is so clever! She knows what I’m saying! Oh my God. She must be a genius!” Suddenly, Estelle’s phone rang. Estelle glanced at the unfamiliar number on the screen and answered the phone. “Hello?” “Hello, Miss Hudson. This is Justin.” Is he Justin? Estelle was stunned. She didn’t know whether it was because the voice was distorted because she was on the phone or she had an illusion that Justin’s voice was very similar to Mr. Mysterious’. ‘Is he really Mr. Mysterious? I asked Mr. Mysterious about his identity last night, and Justin called me today. It’s so coincidental!’ For a moment, all kinds of thoughts ran through Estelle’s mind. “Miss Hudson? Hello?” “Well... Hello, Mr. Roberts.” Estelle said nervously with her hand clenched on her chest as she breathed quickly and her heart beat faster. “Excuse me, Mr. Roberts, may I know how... how did you get my phone number?” Justin chuckled and said, “It’s a secret.” “...” “Miss Hudson, are you feeling better today?” Justin asked in a gentle voice. Estelle, whose mind was in a mess, tried to calm herself down and stammered, “I’m... much better now. Rebecca is here with me. Well... Do you want to speak to her?” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Rebecca?” “Yes,” Estelle said, “She’s with me now. I’ll put her on the phone if you...” “No, no, no. Miss Hudson, you may have misunderstood something,” Justin interrupted her and said. “I’m not calling to look for Rebecca but you.” Estelle was rendered speechless. She looked at Rebecca, who was playing with Yvonne, and then frowned slightly. “Mr. Roberts, you…” “Don’t be so distant. Just call me Justin.” “Okay, Justin,” Estelle said and felt a little embarrassed. Justin then said, “Miss Hudson, I’m sorry to bother you. Actually, I called you to ask you a favour.” “How can I help you?” Estelle asked softly. “I heard that you are a talented designer and recently you have gained a reputation for your design. I want to buy a set of jewelry designed by you for a very important person, so I call you,” Justin said gently. Estelle frowned in confusion and thought, ‘He calls me just to ask me to design jewelry for him?’ “I...” “I’ll pay a high price for it, and I’m not that sort of difficult customer. Don’t worry.” “Mr. Roberts... Justin, may I be so bold as to ask you whether the very important person you referred to is the woman you like?” “Sort of,” Justin answered. “Then what kind of gemstones and patterns does she like? Or do you know what her favourite colour is?” Estelle asked. Justin did not answer her. Instead, after thinking for a moment, he asked in reply, “What about you, Miss Hudson? Do you have any favourite gemstones or patterns?” “I like turquoise and rose patterns.” Justin smiled and said, “Sounds good. You have good taste. Then please design the jewelry as you like.” Estelle was speechless.

“So we have a deal now, right?” Justin asked. “Yes.” “I’m not in a hurry. Take your time, and you can finish it at any time. Take good care of yourself.” “Okay. Thank you,” Estelle said. “You’re welcome. Goodbye.” “Goodbye... Hold on!” Estelle suddenly thought of something and said. “Justin, may I ask you a question?” Justin said, “Sure.” “Do you always wear perfume?” Estelle asked. “...” Justin fell into silence. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to violate your privacy. Just forget my question.” Estelle said apologetically, feeling that she was too abrupt. “Yes.” “... What?” “I usually wear cologne. The smell of citrus is delightfully refreshing and will put me in a better mood.” “...” Estelle was speechless. “Miss Hudson, do you have any other questions?” “No. I’m sorry, Justin. Goodbye. I’ll hang up first,” Estelle said quickly and hung up the phone in a fluster. And Justin’s words re-echoed in her mind. “What’s the matter with you, Estelle? Why are you looking so pale? Are you okay?” Rebecca asked worriedly as she touched Estelle’s forehead to see if she had a fever. “The temperature is normal. What’s wrong with you? Was Cristofer calling you just now? Damn it. How dare he call you and bother you? Give me your phone. I’ll call back and scold him!” Estelle shook her head and took Rebecca’s hand as she said softly, “I’m fine, Rebecca. It was not Cristofer calling.” “It was not Cristofer? Then who else would make you so depressed? Oh, I see. Was it your uncle? Or did anything happen to your mother?”

Estelle shook her head again and said, “No. It was... Justin.” Hearing this, Rebecca was surprised. “How did he get your phone number? I swear I didn’t contact him or tell him your phone number!” “I don’t know how he got it,” Estelle said. Then she suddenly thought of something and continued, “He called to ask me to design jewelry for him. Maybe he got my number from the staff of Only Love Jewelry.” “Oh,” Rebecca said and nodded. “Is he getting married?” “He said that he would like a set of jewelry. Generally, a set of jewelry contains a ring.” Rebecca nodded. “Is the jewelry for you?” Estelle didn’t answer. Justin asked what kind of gemstones and patterns she liked. But she didn’t know whether he wanted to give the jewelry to her as a gift or he just asked about it for reference. “Estelle, how are you feeling now? Is your incision still in pain?” Rebecca asked. “I’m much better, and I can walk slowly now. What’s the matter?” “I’ll take you to see a person and help you find out the truth,” Rebecca said firmly. Estelle didn’t expect that the person that Rebecca referred to was Ingemar. When she and Ingemar met again, they were a little embarrassed. When Ingemar stared blankly at Estelle, who was holding Yvonne in her arms, Rebecca patted him on the shoulder heavily and said, “Come back to earth, bro! Help me check it out quickly!” Ingemar wrenched his mind back to the present and nodded. “Don’t rush. I have to check the cars individually, and it takes time.” In front of him was a computer, and a surveillance video recorded at the hospital gate was playing on the screen. Rebecca then said, “He went to the hospital near midnight for two consecutive days. There shouldn’t be many cars at the gate of the hospital at night. Estelle, as long as we find Mr. Mysterious’ car and check the owner of the car, we’ll know whether he is Justin.”
