Chapter 35 Are You Calling Me A Frog

• Estelle leaned her head against Jackson’s shoulder, crying but at the same time darting Leila a look.
• Leila who got her message then poured out her grievances as well, saying, “You have to hear us out, Mr. Hayes. Noelle came to us today and put on a show, telling us that you’ve been harassing her into getting back together with you. She’s spoken unpleasantly about you and even insulted and accused Estelle, insisting that Estelle has hit her. We only found out later that she has colluded with a reporter to film us from the apartment across the street and once she has gotten the footage she wants, she returned to her old self and was about to hit Estelle. I was only trying to stop her when she hit me in the head with the ashtray... You have to help us, Mr. Hayes.”
• Tears started rolling down her cheeks, smudging her makeup.
