Chapter 1526
At the Macclain household.
The family hastily left the conference room, a look of shock etched on Terrence’s face while the others were still
discussing Estelle’s identity as KING. They all found it hard to believe.
Terrence paced around the room and then turned to ask, “Where’s Bennett?”
Corley quickly answered, “Bennett is staying with Simone and Carmella out there!”
“Why on earth are they still dealing with Carmella?” Terrence anxiously said, “Give him a call now!”
“Alright, alright!” Corley dialed Bennett’s number, it took a while before he picked up. “Bennett, Dad needs to talk to
you.”
Terrence grabbed the phone and asked, “Bennett, where are you?”
Bennett spoke in a solemn tone, “Carmella fainted, and we just brought her home. There are too many reporters
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthere!”
“Forget about her! You need to bring Estelle back home immediately, and formally announce to everyone that she’s
a part of the Macclain family too!” Terrence urgently said.
Leonie sneered, “Might be a little late for that now. Dad, did you forget that at the victory party, my sister-in-law
announced in front of everyone that Estelle was just an adopted daughter?”
Terrence was stunned, his face gloomier even more…
Natalia chuckled, “Yeah, we said Estelle was adopted by the Macclains, but now that we just found out she’s KING. If
we suddenly change our tune and accept her, what would people think about us?”
Bennett heard Natalia’s words over the phone and muttered, “Dad, maybe we should wait a bit more!”
Terrence snapped, “It’s all your and Simone’s fault. You didn’t even know that Estelle was a student of old Mr.
Quintin! You treat someone else’s daughter like a treasure. Are you two out of your minds?! I told you a long time
ago to bring Estelle back to the Macclain’s and treat her well, but you didn’t listen to me. That’s why we’re in this
mess! I don’t care what Simone thinks, you must kick Carmella out of the Macclain’s, or you should get the hell out
of the family!”
Seeing Terrence really angry, Natalia and the rest were silent.
Bennett was full of regret. He never imagined that Estelle could be KING, a student of old Mr. Quintin. His dad was
angry and he didn’t dare to say anything. “Carmella is still unconscious, I’ll talk to Simone about it.”
“What’s there to talk about!” Terrence shouted, “You still don’t get it. Carmella not only ruined herself, but she’s
also a threat to the entire Macclain family!”
“I understand, and I know what to do now!” Bennett quickly replied.
“There’s no time to waste. You need to call Estelle right away, no matter what you and Simone did in the past,
you’re still her biological parents! As long as you publicly acknowledge your identity as her father, she can’t deny
it!”
Terrence’s plan was to maintain a superficial family relationship with Estelle. Even if they weren’t that close, the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMacclain family could still gain considerable connections and benefits.
Of course, if they had established a family relationship with Estelle earlier, they wouldn’t have to go through all this
trouble now. Bennett responded a few times then hung up. His current family situation was a mess.
Carmella was still lying in the room. Reporters had followed and were waiting outside. Simone was sitting on the
sofa in a daze. She hadn’t spoken a word since they got home.
Carmella’s phone kept ringing, and there were calls from the company, her agent, and the show crew. They were
calling nonstop, making Carmella extremely anxious
She had already received more than twenty calls from her agent. Bennett asked Simone to go upstairs to check if
Carmella had woken up and to take her phone to her
But Simone didn’t move, she was like a soulless body.
Bennett sighed and had to take the phone up himself.
Of course, Carmella was faking her fainting how else could she have escaped the situation?
She pretended to be unconscious Even when Bennett came up and called her, she didn’t dare to open her eyes.
She knew that the moment she opened her eyes, she would have to face all the things she couldn’t bear
