Chapter 192

Before Estrella could even utter a word, the clerk, obviously impatient, snapped, “Don’t you know about these stuff? Get your divorce finalized before you come back here.” With that, they briskly summoned the next person, “Next.”

Gripping the documents that had been dismissively returned to her, Estrella could feel her temperature rising.

Jason had just returned to the office from a meeting when he noticed a sleek white BMW parked outside the company entrance. Although he couldn’t see who was inside, his curiosity was instantly piqued..

Drew, trailing behind Jason, frowned at the sight of the BMW blocking the entrance. Then, his eyes widened in recognition, “Mr. Jason, looks like that’s Ms. Estrella’s ride.”

Estrella had only just returned to town, but after Jason had mentioned her that morning, Drew had made a point of digging up everything he could about her – where she lived, what she drove, and what she was up to all crystal clear.
