30 Days till I Divorce My Husband (Estrella and Jason)

Chapter 130

Jason strolled into the house after an evening of obligatory socializing, only to be greeted by Marie, who swiftly wiped her hands on her apron before rushing over to update him. “Mr. Jason, you’re back! Ms. Estrella’s home, too. She looked a bit under the weather and didn’t come down for dinner.”

“I’ll go check on her,” Jason said, ascending the stairs.

As he pushed open the bedroom door, Estrella was just finishing a call by the bay window. Turning to see Jason, her previously impassive face clouded over with a dark scowl.

After noticing her mood, Jason asked, “Why didn’t you have dinner?”

Estrella tossed her phone onto the desk with a clatter, ignoring his question.

Dinner? She was so infuriated by him that the thought of eating was the last thing on her mind.

Seeing that Estrella was giving him the cold shoulder, Jason edged closer to the desk, tapping on its surface to subtly inquire what was wrong. He hadn’t done anything to provoke her recently.

Estrella glanced at him and, without warning, flung the lab report on the desk at him. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked up at Jason with a composed challenge. “Jason, what are you trying to do?”

Silence lingered as Jason perused the report. His relaxed demeanor vanished. Secrets never stayed hidden forever, and Jason was startled to realize that Estrella had discovered his interference so soon. It seemed she was quite eager to get pregnant.

After a moment of silence, he tossed the report back on the desk and said, “You’re too young to rush into having kids.”

His condescending remark about her age made Estrella laugh bitterly. “Too young, huh? Then don’t bother getting into bed with me. Have the guts to keep your distance!” Her sarcasm cut through the tension. To Jason, she was too young to bear children but not too young to share his bed.

Estrella’s simmering anger met with Jason’s calm reply, “Let’s put off the kid conversation for a couple of years.”
