Chapter 23
At that moment, Jason’s gaze was icy enough to cut glass.
“Bro, I just ran my mouth off. Please don’t exile me to the sticks again. I’d never live it down.” Jason’s smirk sent shivers down Bryce’s spine.
With a brittle grin, Bryce pleaded, “Come on, don’t banish me. I will infiltrate Ella’s camp for you and do some snooping to get her real thoughts.”
The mention of going undercover softened Jason’s expression slightly.
Having promised to spy for Jason, Bryce sought out Estrella the next day. In the law firm, Estrella was sorting files alone, working overtime. Bryce pulled up a chair beside her.
Bryce had been shadowing her all morning, and Estrella scoffed, “Spit it out if you have something to say. Don’t stick to me like gum. I’ve got work to do.”
Bryce leaned in, whispering, “Estrella, what’s your real take on Jason? What’s your plan?”
Estrella replied dryly, “He is the boss. What opinion or plan could I possibly have?” She knew Bryce had come for this very reason.

He didn’t appreciate it, didn’t see his mistake and even glared at me. That look was like he wanted to flay me alive. Estrella, I’ll lay it on the line for you. Jason absolutely wants a divorce. If I can’t persuade you today, and you don’t agree to it, he’ll
make me pay.”
Before Estrella could respond, Bryce continued, “Jason’s no saint, so let’s just call it quits. We’ll make sure to get a hefty settlement from him. And don’t pay any mind to those fortune-tellers’ words. They’re all charlatans. You have been kids ourselves for over twenty years. So you still think kids are that good? Worst comes to worst, I’ll be your
