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

Chapter 37
Thomas had barely finished his sentence when Jason chuckled with a hint of
mischief, “Thanks! I definitely owe you one.” Without missing a beat, he added,
“Bryce’s team is short-handed, and you seem like a perfect fit to jump in and get
some exercise.”
At the mention of going over to Bryce's domain. Thomas’ face turned ghostly
pale. “Jason, are you returning a favor or seeking revenge? That place is just...”
Before Thomas could finish his lament, Jason had already dialed a number.
“Drew, get everything ready for Thomas.”
Thomas felt like crying without tears. “Jason, what did I do wrong? I'll change. I
promise I'll change, okay?”
“Is it because you haven't smoothed things over with Serene yet? Then you
better sweet-talk her yourself! And for the record, I already cleared the air with
Estrella yesterday. She said she’s not pressuring you and that you two should
sort things out on your own. She even called Serene back for you Estrella said
she respects your choices.” As Thomas went on, Jason's expression grew
increasingly grim.
After Thomas rattled off his piece, Drew entered, looking seriously at Thomas.
“Sir, your ticket has been booked, and Ben will meet you at the station.”

“Jason, where did I go wrong?” Thomas was on the verge of tears. He was too
sophisticated for a fate similar to Bryce'’s.
After being ushered out of Jason's office by Drew, Thomas pulled out his phone
and called Grayson and the others for help, but they could only tell him to take
care of himself. In the end, Thomas had no choice but to call his mother for help.
On the other end of the phone, Thomas’ mother, while playing cards, said,
“Thomas, I think Jason's decision is excellent. You've been too impulsive lately,
and it's time for some real-world experience. Your father and I are grateful to
Jason. Don't worry about the family business; your dad's got it under control.”
Thomas felt utterly abandoned.
Back in the office, picturing Thomas’ desolate expression, Jason finally exhaled a
sigh of relief. Since when did he get drunk over Serene? And who told Thomas to
spout nonsense in front of Estrella?

Chapter 37
When Jason returned to Sandalwood Oasis with Serene, Estrella was
descending the
stairs.
“Estrella, Serene greeted her eagerly upon seeing her come down.
“Ms. Estrella,” Drew, carrying Serene’s luggage, also greeted her awkwardly.
Estrella glanced at them indifferently, nonchalantly continuing downstairs,
nonchalantly pouring herself a glass of water, ignoring everyone.
Seeing Estrella’s reaction, Serene took the initiative to explain, “Estrella, Jason
said you're not in a good mood and asked me to come keep you company.”
Serene knew all too well why Jason had her come over. It was clearly to smooth
over the awkwardness.
Drew, trailing behind them, also felt the tension, completely at a loss as to what
play his boss was staging.
Jason, however, remained stony-faced. “Why should you be afraid of her?” Then,
turning to Drew, he ordered, “Drew, take the luggage to the master bedroom.”
“Ah! The master..." Drew didn't finish his words before a cold glance from Jason
silenced him. “Right away, Sir.”
As Drew passed by Estrella with the luggage, his eyes were full of sympathy.
Alas, this might be the end.
Then Marie emerged from the kitchen, whispering, “Sir, the late-night snack is
ready.”
Jason, expressionless, turned to Serene, “Let's have something to eat first.”
Serene’s gaze lingered on Estrella, urging, “Estrella, have you had dinner? Join
us for a bit!" Estrella paused her ascent, turned to Serene, and said, “Serene,
since Jason has brought you back to Sandalwood Oasis, you must mean that
much to him. Instead of figuring out how to deal with me, you might want to focus
on securing your hold on him.”
When Jason wasn't so brazen, she could still throw some harsh words around.
Now that Jason had brought someone home, if she still acted like Mrs. Nelson, it
would only
diminish her own standing.
After saying her piece, Estrella turned to leave but then added as a reminder,
“Oh, and make sure to leave me enough evidence.” After saying that, she
continued upstairs.
In the living room, Jason, with his hands in his pockets, wore a deeply
unpleasant expression. Estrella’s reaction felt like punching a soft pillow to him-
no impact.
Beside Jason, Serene stole a glance at him, and seeing he remained silent, she
chose not to speak either.

Half an hour later, when Serene followed Jason to the upstairs master bedroom
and heard him suggest she spend the night there, she panicked. “Jason, this isn't
right! Is there a misunderstanding between you and Estrella? If there is, you
should explain Women love to hear sweet nothings. They soften right up.”
Jason ignored Serene and moved to the bedside cabinet, shifted a vase, and
retrieved a pinhole camera. He then methodically found several more hidden
cameras around the
room.
As Jason tossed the pinhole cameras onto the coffee table, Serene’s face turned
ashen white. She was frozen in shock.
In the second bedroom, Estrella, fresh from her shower, was interrupted by the
frantic knocking of a young maid.
“Come in,” Estrella said calmly. The maid burst through the door to report
breathlessly, “Ms. Estrella, Mr. Jason has found the cameras, and he’s removed
them all.”
Estrella responded with composure, “I'm aware. You may go.”
Once the maid left, Estrella opened her laptop, and instantly, the live feed from
the master bedroom appeared on her screen:

Afterward, he turned and walked over to the bookshelf. Reaching up, he pulled
down a book and gently flipped through the pages until he retrieved an old
photograph from years past a group shot.
At her laptop, Estrella watched Jason's every move. When Jason pulled out that
photo, Estrella couldn't help but pause. If her memory served her right, that photo
must have been seven or eight years old.
Why had Jason kept it? And who in that photo meant so much to him?

Jason continued to gaze at the photo, and after watching for a while, Estrella
closed the surveillance feed and went to rest.

was a dark figure sitting on the couch, staring at her in the pitch-black room.
