Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 1975

Estelle's gaze sharpened as she questioned Ena, "Which floor is Lillian in charge of?"

"The forty-ninth," Ena replied.

The forty-ninth floor?

Estelle looked up at the towering skyscraper, focusing on the forty-ninth level, her eyes narrowing thoughtfully.

Back at the villa, Lambert was out.

After taking a shower and slipping into cozy loungewear, Estelle sat on the balcony, staring across at the neighboring high-rise.

What secrets did the forty-ninth floor hold?

If Lillian hadn't been used for experiments, why did she look that way?

Estelle closed her eyes, her thoughts drifting to a previous mission with Jonathan. They had seen a similar scene in a basement room, where people, drained and pale, were held for experimentation with some kind of virus the lab was researching.

A virus?

A sudden realization hit her, and her gaze once again snapped to the forty-ninth floor, turning icy with determination.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Lambert entered, grinning, "Hi there!"

Estelle was direct, "Spit it out, what do you want?"

"Alvis has invited us over for lunch. Are you in?" Lambert asked.

Estelle nodded, "Give me a moment to change."

Surprised by her quick consent, Lambert raised an eyebrow, "You and Ms. Beverly getting along?"

"Decent enough," Estelle replied.

"Well, that's nice!" Lambert chuckled. "I'll wait for you downstairs."

Estelle changed into a casual white outfit and descended the stairs to find Lambert waiting. He looked up and complimented, "Looking stunning!"
