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

Chapter 53
Her shares would be managed by her brother, and Paula was totally cool with
that. She'd never been the corporate type- just show her the money and she was
golden. As far as she was concerned, it didn't matter whose hands her shares
were in, as long as they were well taken care of. She trusted her brother
completely. He wouldn't let her starve, she was sure. He'd look out for his little
sis.
After skimming through the agreement, Paula immediately sided with Erin, “Dad,
Erin's right. Just sign on the dotted line, will ya?”
With Exi
With Erin stepping in to handle the situation, Janie felt a weight lift off her
shoulders.
Hunter furrowed his brow, “Erin, my heart has always been in this family, and
every bit of the Lamont family is surely yours and Paula’s. But I'm only 53 now.
Don't you think it's a bit too early for me to sign the stock transfer?”
Hunter was hesitating, but Erin kept his cool, “I'm not in a rush. You sign when
you feel like it.” But Hunter wouldn't be seeing Ruby or the twins until those
papers were signed,
Erin's calm demeanor unnerved Hunter. Erin didn’t say much, but that didn’t
mean Hunter didn’t get the message.
Erin was tougher, more decisive than Hunter ever was, and Hunter had seen that
even before the kid was fully grown. Plus, Lamont Corporation owed its success
to Erin's hard. work.
After weighing the pros and cons, and thinking of Ruby and his young sons in
Erin's hands, Hunter's voice trembled as he conceded, “I'll sign. Right now.”
No sooner had Hunter agreed than Paula handed him a
pen.
Janie was seething with
and frustration, but she didn’t dare speak out with Erin taking charge. And as for
Ruby, that bitch caught in her son's net, Janie knew she'd have her chance for
revenge.
Hunter took the pen, signed the papers, and looked up at Erin, “Erin, I've signed.
Now, about Ruby and the boys..."
Before he could finish, Erin cut him off, “Once the transfer is effective, you'll see
them.”
Hunter stared at Erin for a long moment, eventually realizing he had nothing left
to say, and left the house, drained.
As soon as Hunter was gone, Janie started her waterworks again, crying about
all her hardships over the years.
While comforting Janie, Paula looked up at Erin, “Aren't you mad about the crazy
stuff Dad pulled?”

Erin was as cool as a cucumber, “Getting angry doesn't solve anything Fixing the
problem does. Mom, pull yourself together. We'll have a press conference
tomorrow morning to clear the air about tonight's drama. Say you were misled.”
Janie’s tears stopped as if they'd never been, and she looked up at Erin. He
clarified, “The company’s interests come first.”
“I got it,” Janie said.
With the family drama handled, Erin didn’t linger. He had a mess to clean up
tonight. As he started the car, a sinister smile played on Erin's lips. Estrella,
things were getting interesting.
Meanwhile.
Estrella had barely stepped through the door when Bryce dropped his gaming
phone and enveloped her in a bear hug, “Estrella, seeing a living, breathing
person is a blessing.” Estrella rolled her eyes, “Enough. Don't act like a dog
who's just seen a bone.” She prodded, “Planning to hide out here forever?”
Bryce was all over her, taking her bag, massaging her back, “Even if I have to
hide here for the rest of my life, I won't go to that damn place.”
“So you've been back this long and no one’s noticed? Thomas isn't ratting you
out?”
“Thomas sneaked back too,” Bryce said confidently. “Don’t worry. We've got it all
under control over there.” If Jason found out they'd both snuck back, he'd

While kneading her shoulders like a loyal servant, Bryce glanced at the living
room, “I ordered your favorite midnight snack. Didn't even touch it 'til you got
back.”
“That sweet, huh?”
“Absolutely. Plus, you went to the Lamont family to stir things up. Bet you didn’t
get to eat.” Estrella sank back into the couch, and Bryce laid out the late-night
spread before her, handing her a fork, “Jason and that Serene went together,
right? Time to put that divorce on the agenda?”
Estrella took the fork without expression, “You're so keen on me getting a
divorce, Bryce. Got a crush on me?”
Bryce’s face turned red, “You're fierce, Estrella. I'd crush on anyone but you. I
just can't stand Jason's arrogance, and he’s a total jerk, to begin with.”
Estrella took a sip of water, “You should tell that to your family.”
“I will, and I'll make sure to give Jason a piece of my mind after this blows over.”

Estrella chuckled, knowing full well Bryce never won against Jason.
“Estrella, let me tell you, a guy like Jason...” Bryce ranted on about Jason's
faults.
At the same time, Jason had just arrived home and Marie greeted him with a
beaming smile, “Mr. Jason, welcome back.”
“Where's Estrella?”
“Ms. Estrella didn’t come back with you? Then she hasn't returned yet.”
Not back yet? Jason's expression darkened. She wasn't home asleep? Pulling
out his phone, Jason dialed Estrella’s number.
“As a kid, Jason was the worst. We'd get something to eat, and he'd always take
the best part first. Never got to taste the heart of a watermelon because of him.
“He'd set me up to disturb hornets’ nests, and one summer, he even got me
bitten by a snake. Estrella, tell me that's not messed up?”
Bryce
yce was in the midst of his tirade against Jason when Estrella’s phone rang. She
glanced at it, and with a dismissive smirk at Bryce, said, “Looks like the Nelson
family’s not-so-fine specimen is calling.”
Bryce clammed up, his indignation suddenly deflating.
Estrella let out a contemptuous laugh before coldly answering the phone, “What's
up?”
On the other end of the line, Jason’s voice came through charged with fury,
“Estrella, where the hell are you?”
He had wanted to head back with Estrella after the gala ended. She had told him
that she'd gone home and was already asleep, but when he got back, she was
nowhere to be found.
Estrella pulled the phone away from her ear, her brows and eyes knitted in
annoyance, “What do you want?”
“You have 10 minutes to get your ass back here,” he demanded.
Bryce, with all the gravity of a judge, stared at Estrella. An opportunity like this
was rare, and he felt he ought to do something about it. Otherwise, he'd be
letting Jason down.
So, Bryce cleared his throat, dropped his voice an octave, and teased, “Ms.
Estrella, why aren't you over here? The water's getting cold. Weren't we
supposed to bath together?”
Estrella’s gaze shot towards Bryce. Was he really that bold?
Bryce raised an eyebrow, a smug look plastered on his face. Jason wasn't going
to get any sleep tonight. Or the next night. Or even the night after that.

On the phone, Jason's breath carried a sense of hostility as he sharply asked, “Is

Estrella replied, cool as a cucumber, “No, you must have heard wrong.”
Seeing his chance, Bryce continued, “Ms. Estrella, who are you on the phone
with? Don't tell me there's another man behind my back when you've claimed
you're single. Hang up the phone already. I promise you a night of blissful
ecstasy.”
