Chapter 226

When Estrella came back to town, Jason was definitely ticked off about her constant divorce talk, not to mention the out-of-the-blue baby drama and her teaming up with Serene. So when Estrella denied Isaac’s identity, Jason didn’t bother to dig deeper. After all, the kid did look barely a year, old, and Drew had dug up some dirt about a past boyfriend.

him arrive.

Gay stood up quickly from his chair when he saw Jason, his voice pleading, “Mr. Jason.” Then he stammered out, “Mr. Jason, I’ve been racking my brain since your men grabbed me, and for the life of me, I can’t figure out how I could’ve crossed you.” Jason was a big fish, not someone Gay could ever hope to cross.
