Chapter 143
At that moment, Estrella caught Jason’s gaze as he was already watching her.
Their eyes locked, and with an air of calm, Estrella said, “Answer it.”
Jason’s heart skipped a beat, his nerves frayed. But faced with Estrella’s unyielding stare, Jason reluctantly answered the call in front of her. It was the only way to clear the air.
“Jason,” came Serene’s voice through the phone, already tinged with a sob.
It had been a while since Serene had been involved in Jason’s work, and their contact had dwindled. The unexpected call today likely meant trouble was afoot.
At the sound of her “Jason,” Jason glanced up at Estrella again. To his relief, her expression remained mostly unchanged.
On the other end, Serene’s voice, now choked with tears, cried out, “Jason, my mom’s sick again. She trashed the house, and she hurt Vincent, Jason, I…”
“I’m just so exhausted!”
After her confession, Serene burst into tears. Soon after, her brother’s voice came through, “Jason, why has my mom become like this? She just hit me and my sister. Jason, I miss you so much! It’s been so long since I’ve seen you.”
Following Vincent’s plea, Serene, through her tears, said, “Jason, I’ve been trying to calm Vincent down for ages. He must have been scared tonight and kept asking for you, saying he wanted to see you. I know you…”
Before Serene could finish, Jason cut her off, “I understand.”
“Jason, I’m so sorry! Really, I am!” Serene’s apology was met with silence as Jason ended the call. When he looked back at Estrella, her gentle demeanor had vanished.
He cleared his throat awkwardly and was unsure of how to explain the situation to Estrella. She spoke first, “They all seem to miss you so much. Why don’t you go?” She added, “I’ll come with you.”
Jason eyed Estrella with suspicion. She simply smiled. “Don’t worry, I won’t lay a finger on the kid.”

to Jason, Serene wouldn’t be left in such dire straits unless she refused help. Perhaps she was playing the long game, seeking sympathy with her pitiable situation.
