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

Chapter 156

Bryce was relentless in his efforts to persuade Estrella to get a divorce, and even Jesse was moved by his dedication. She played Bryce a recording she’d made, “Bryce, I’ve got the recording all set. Once Estrella gets back, we’ll just play it for Jason, so she doesn’t have to come up with an excuse to dump him.”

When Bryce saw that Jesse had made a recording, he lunged to snatch the phone away.

Each time Jason knocked him down a peg, Bryce would simmer down for a bit, but as soon as he recovered, he’d be back at it, egging Estrella on to cut ties. For over two years, not a single day did Bryce relent from this self-appointed mission.

Estrella, watching Jesse and Bryce chase each other around her, instinctively shielded her belly, fearing they might bump into her.

“Estrella, you better get Jesse to delete that recording quick,” Bryce pleaded with Estrella, unable to snatch Jesse’s phone. “If Jason hears that, he’s gonna skin me alive.”

With one hand in her pocket and the other gently resting on her belly, Estrella said, “So, are we still on for the sting operation or not?”

“Absolutely.” Bryce’s voice shot up an octave, as he was here specifically for that purpose. Then he added, “Estrella, you feeling okay? You’ve been guarding your belly this whole time.”

Estrella dropped her hand, “Just cramps.”

Bryce, uncertain, asked, “Is it that time of the month?”

Estrella pushed Bryce’s head playfully and then the trio headed into the karaoke bar. If it weren’t for Bryce dragging her out, Estrella would have been home sleeping by now.

They entered the private room to find an assortment of trendy and attractive guys lounging on the sofas, with a bevy of gorgeous girls of all types standing before them. The guys were picking out their favorites.

With her hands tucked into the pockets of her cozy brown cardigan, Estrella casually remarked, “Bryce, I had no idea you were such a player.” Was she here to catch him, or to catch Jason?

At Estrella’s words, Bryce lost his cool and started hurling shoes at the guys on the sofa, “Go to hell! Who told you to invite escorts? Didn’t I say someone important was coming? Are you doing this on purpose?”

After chewing the guys out, Bryce sternly ushered the girls out.

The guy in the center threw Bryce’s shoe back to him, “You never said that someone was a lady,”

Bryce, fuming, slipped his shoes back on and opened all the vents and air conditioning in the room, asking sternly, “No one smoked, right?”

“Nope,” the guys shook their heads. Estrella couldn’t stand the smell of Estrella, so wherever Bryce was, smoke was a no-go.
