Chapter 238

Estrella was on the verge of losing her cool, thanks to Jason’s shameless advances. She struggled, but couldn’t push him away. Jason’s kisses grew deeper, softer, no longer as forceful as before.

It had been years since she’d been close to a man, and Jason’s passionate yet gentle kisses were starting to wear her down. It was nothing personal, just a simple physical reaction.

Her hands gripped his shirt tightly, no longer trying to push him away, as Jason drew her tender tongue into his mouth.

Estrella’s breath hitched. After three years, she couldn’t deny that kissing Jason still made. her knees weak and her blood rush.

Meeting.no further resistance, Jason grew bolder, his hands slipping under her shirt, caressing her waist.

Estrella shivered, goosebumps spreading across her skin. At the same time, she snapped back to reality, remembering she was here on serious business. She pushed him away with force, “Enough is enough!”

Taken aback by Estrella’s shove, Jason clutched his chest and staggered back, his brows knitted, “Estrella, you hit hard. Don’t you care at all?”

Estrella looked at him with disgust, “Cut the act, you’re not hurt.”

But when her eyes fell on his arm, she saw the bloodstains on his shirt. Jeez, his mind was clearly clouded with lust, even risking his life.

She could guarantee that if she hadn’t pushed him away, he would have gone through with it despite his injuries. If anything happened to him, the blame would fall on her, painting her as some kind of slut who wouldn’t let an injured man be.

Jason, feigning pain, moved closer, resting his chin on Estrella’s shoulder with a weary voice, “Babe, I’m sorry. My bad.”

Estrella scoffed, pushing him off her shoulder, “You’re the big shot here in Ravenwood, the untouchable Jason. How could you ever be wrong? And don’t forget, we’re divorced. I’m not your babe.”
