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

Chapter 167

Before Estrella could utter a word, Bryce pressed on, “Look, Estrella, when it comes to matters of the heart, it’s better to rip off the Band-Aid fast. If you split now, you’ll be upset for, what, maybe a couple of weeks tops? But if you don’t, the pain’s just gonna drag on. Why put yourself through that kind of grief? You’re not exactly short on options, right?”

As Bryce continued, Marie’s expression turned so dark, it looked like a thundercloud. When the maid brought in the tea and cookies, Marie snatched the tray with a severe look.

Later, when Marie stomped into the

wroom, she slammed the refreshments down in

front of Bryce and spat out, “Mr. Bryce, I remember Mr. Jason is your cousin. He never did you any wrong, did he?”

“How can you, his cousin, come into his house and push his wife to divorce? And if I may be so bold, you wouldn’t happen to have your eye on Ms. Estrella, would you?” Marie was genuinely suspicious of Bryce’s motives. If he wasn’t Jason’s cousin, Marie would have booted him out long ago.

What kind of cousin was that?

Annoyed by Marie’s reaction, Bryce lounged on the sofa, legs apart, and said with an air of sincerity, “Marie, aren’t you being a bit too overprotective of Jason? You know exactly what kind of man he is. How often he’s been home to Estrella since they got married? You can’t say you don’t know.”

“If Estrella were your daughter, would you be happy to see her married to a man like Jason? Since there’s no love and mutual affection, why force them to stay together? This marriage was a mistake from the start, and when you realize you’ve made a mistake, you correct it promptly.”

Marie was left speechless by Bryce’s blunt words. He wasn’t wrong; Estrella and Jason marriage was indeed rocky, with Jason rarely coming home. But Marie wasn’t one to concede defeat. She dreaded the thought that Estrella might actually take Bryce’s advic and go through with a divorce.

“So relationships need time to gel,” Marie argued. “Besides, Mr. Jason and Ms. Estrella have been getting along great lately. He’s been coming home nearly every day.”

Bryce chuckled, “They’ve known each other for nearly 24 years. If it’s not working, it’s not working. How much more ‘gelling’ do they need?”

“Mr. Bryce, if you keep this up, I’ll be calling Mr. Jason and Mr. Keith,” Marie threatened, seeing that Bryce was dead set on getting Estrella to go through the divorce.
