Chapter 191

Estrella couldn’t help but let out a wry chuckle, “Don’t worry. I’ve got a son now, I’m not going to do anything foolish. Plus, I’ve got more self-respect than that.”

Even if she had once thrown caution to the wind where Jason was concerned, those days were well behind her. It was during that fall at Sandalwood Oasis that she felt as though years of feelings for Jason had been wiped clean.

After Estrella’s reassurance, Bryce eased up a bit. “Glad to hear you’ve got some sense of self-respect.”

Estrella shot him a glare, which he met with a laugh while ruffling her hair. “I’m off then. You should head inside.”

“Sure thing,” Estrella agreed, but she lingered outside until Bryce started his car and waved for her to go in. Then, hands buried in her jacket pockets, she ambled back to the house at a leisurely pace.

During her three years abroad, especially when Isaac was born, she was deeply grateful for Bryce’s tireless support.

By the time Estrella returned to the villa, Isaac had already fallen asleep on Jesse’s

shoulder.

Isaac was asleep, Estrella was back, and Jesse, after spending a while with the Dorvold family, headed home as well.
