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

Chapter 46
As the last trace of her grin fixed in place, she said, “Jason, our relationship
doesn't give you the right to snoop through my phone.”
Jason's eyes darkened, with a dangerous glint within them. He resembled a tiger,
coiled with pent-up energy, ready to pounce at any moment.
After Estrella made her point, she breezed past him, but Jason's arm shot out,
gripping her. tightly.
A sharp pain shot through Estrella’s arm as she turned to face Jason, whose
normally suave features now bore no trace of warmth, only a chilling aloofness.
Estrella remained nonchalant. “Jealous, are we?” In a swift move, Estrella spun
around, casually tossing her phone into the toilet as if it were no big deal.
“Estrella!” Jason's voice was edged with steel.
Unperturbed, she replied, “Well, now neither of us can check it, can we?”
Jason let go of her arm and grabbed his own phone to call Drew. “Drew, check-"
Before he could finish, Estrella snatched his phone and cut him off. “If Drew finds
-something, will you have any dignity left? I'll admit it. I do have someone on the
side.”
Estrella’s indifference didn’t sit well with Jason He suppressed his anger and
asked, “Was it Korey?”
“Yeah.” Estrella taunted. “You wouldn't take the bait, so why shouldn't I throw
myself at someone else? At least I might get something out of it.”
Swallowing hard, Jason's voice dropped to a low growl. “How far has it gone?”
Estrella egged him on. “So curious? Why don’t you check for yourself?”
Jason didn’t push her away, nor did he move any closer; he just clenched his jaw
and warned, “Estrella, you're playing with fire.”
With a touch of amusement, she retorted, “We had an agreement, right? You do
your thing, I do mine, and we don't interfere with each other.”
Suppressing the rage in his chest, Jason lifted his hand and removed Estrella’s
fingers from around his neck, one by one, finally holding her chin in a warning
grip. “Estrella, you better be lying. Otherwise, say goodbye to the Digital Springs
Project, and Dorvold Group can forget about ever getting involved in doing
business.”
After his ultimatum, Jason strode to the closet to change into a fresh suit and left
the house without another word. Even so, he managed to keep his temper in
check, not once mentioning the word “divorce.”

Chapter 46
The door slammed shut behind him, and Estrela let out a chuckle before
retrieving her phone from the tollet. She had nothing to hide from Jason. She just
couldn't stand. Jason's high-and-mighty, double standard attitude. And after his
attitude the previous night, her interest in him had waned. She had only wanted
to rile him up for her own amusement.
Drying off the phone, she removed the SIM card and had Marie bring her a new
phone.
No sooner had she inserted the card than dozens of messages from Bryce
appeared-pleas for her attention and missed calls.
Scowling at the barrage, she got Bryce’s call just then. She answered the call
with a tirade. “Bryce, have you lost your mind? Keep pestering me, and you're
out on your ear tomorrow.”
From the other end came Bryce’s pitiful defense. “Estrella, I just wanted to make
sure you wouldn't throw me under the bus in front of Jason.”
Estrella ended the call with a snap. If only those two brothers could balance each
other
out.
Jason had just left Sandalwood Oasis in his car for a short while when Drew's
call came in. “Sir,” Drew reported, “Korey has been away on a business trip and
hasn't been in touch with Ms. Estrella. Her whereabouts are normal. She indeed
spent last night at Waterfall Acres.”
Jason responded with a detached grunt and hung up, his frustration simmering.
Estrella’s every word seemed a manipulation.
But realizing she had bluffed, Jason felt a slight relief. At least she was cautious,
which meant she still cared about their marriage.
Back in the bedroom, after ending Bryce's call, Estrella dialed Cole to discuss her
decision. to maintain the project's price while improving its quality.
Cole considered her strategy and then suggested earnestly, “Estrella, why don’t
you come back and help me at the firm?”
Estrella brushed off the proposal. “Dad, you're still young. We'll talk about this
later.”
Cole persisted, highlighting the challenges of her legal career, especially since
she was handling divorce cases that wouldn't lead to a prominent position. He
urged her to reconsider.
Laughing, Estrella ended the call, assuring him she knew what she was doing.
Just as she was about to rest, the bedroom door swung open again. Estrella
looked up to see Jason returning, a mix of annoyance and humor crossing her
face.

Before coming upstairs, Marie had
cornered him for a chat, going on
about how Estrella was such a
stand-up woman. Aside from visiting
her folks and the occasional
business trip, she hardly ever came
home late. Marie had said that any
other woman would have taken the
chance to gallivant around town by
now, and that if Estrella was ever
sharp-tongued, it was only because
she was upset and taking it out on
him. The content is on
