30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 10
It seems that she wasn't as he thought, with no personal life whatsoever.
When Marie brought in some snacks and tea, Jason casually asked about
Estrella’s usual routine. Marie said, “Ms. Estrella occasionally works overtime, but
not often, and she
usually comes home quite early. It's still early today.”
Early? It was already past nine. She usually complained about his infrequent
visits, yet she herself wasn’t much better.
Jason thought that when he agreed to come home once a week, Estrella would
be waiting at home for him, eagerly watching for his return. But things didn’t turn
out as he imagined.
With his hands in his pockets, Jason still stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, not
leaving. Now, he was curious when Estrella would return home tonight.
Meanwhile, inside an Audi A4, a young man gripped the steering wheel, glancing
over at Estrella who rested her head against the window, her brow furrowed in
discomfort. “Estrella, you okay?” he asked with concern.
“I'm fine,” she replied, her hand pressed against her chest. The night had
crowned her the life of the party, leading to a few too many toasts in her honor.
As the evening wound down, people suggested karaoke, but Estrella could
hardly walk straight, prompting her supervisor to arrange a ride home.
Entering the prestigious Sandalwood Oasis, the young man’s eyes widened in
awe. The neighborhood was Ravenwood’s creme de la creme, where luxury
whispered through the rustling leaves and reflected in the tranquil waters. The
real estate prices were as breathtaking as the scenery — outrageously so
As they pulled up to Sandalwood Oasis No. 1, his shock deepened. If his
memory served him right, this was the property of a prominent Ravenwood
figure, sprawling over acres of prime land. “Estrella,” he called out, just as the
gates of the villa swung open, revealing a tall man in a crisp slate-gray pajama
set. His face was stern as he approached them, each step measured.
The young guy's heart skipped a beat upon recognizing Jason. In the next
instant, he was out of the car, greeting him respectfully, “Mr. Jason.”
Jason spared him a glance before opening the passenger door. Estrella’s scent,
heavy with alcohol, hit him, and his gaze turned icy. “Estrella, why did you drink
$0 much?”
Estrella, surprised by his presence, chirped, “Hey! You're back!” She fumbled
with her seatbelt, muttering about its stubbornness until Jason, despite his
distaste, unbuckled it and lifted her from the car.
Quiugby clung to his neck, protesting, “Jason, I'm not that drunk. Put me down. I

walk.” Instead, Jason tightened his hold, as if to assert his claim over her.
The young man, still by the car, was slack-jawed. The pieces fell into place.
Estrella’s connection to Jason explained her snagging the legal representation
for Nelson International. The thought of any misunderstandings on Jason's part
sent a shiver down his spine.
He quickly retrieved Estrella’s purse, “Mr. Jason, this is Estrella’s bag. We had a
firm dinner tonight. I'm allergic to alcohol, so I was the designated driver.”
Jason accepted the bag with a nonchalant “Thanks,” and the young man
watched them disappear into the villa, his mind reeling with Estrella’s high-profile
connections.
Once upstairs, Jason sat across from Estrella in an interrogation-like manner.
“Estrella, you sure that man is just a colleague? Did he bring anyone else home
tonight?”

Estrella, cradling a throw pillow, met his jealous gaze with a teasing challenge,
“Jason, are you jealous?”
He lit a cigarette, only to extinguish it at her frown. “Don’t play dumb, Estrella.
Answer my question.”
Her laughter broke the tension as she tossed aside the pillow and straddled him,
seeking his embrace. “Jason, I need a hug.”
Expecting him to push her away, she was surprised when he pulled her closer
instead, his touch gentle yet firm. Their bodies pressed together, and the irritation
within Jason began to ebb. Lifting her chin, he smirked, “Feeling guilty? Trying to
charm your way out?”
Estrella buried her face in his neck, her voice muffled, “Jason, I'm so tired, and I
just want to sleep.”

Estrella ignored his caution, slumping bonelessly against his shoulder, her soft
lips grazing his cheek. “Jason, give me a kiss.”
Jason grasped her wrists and gently pushed her away. “Don’t push your luck.”
“No kiss?” Estrella sat up straight. “Fine, I'll kiss someone else.”
