30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 111
Judging by the timeline, they should have encountered each other.
Estrella spotted the soup on his desk with a quick glance. “Looks like I arrived at
the perfect moment,” she remarked breezily.
As she said that, she plopped the stack of documents she was carrying onto the
desk and
reached for the insulated soup container.
Jason couldn't let Estrella open that thermos. He grabbed his phone and said, “I'll
have
Drew take it out.”
Estrella said, “No, don’t waste the effort she put in.” As she spoke, she took the
insulated thermos and said, “Let me see if I could learn a thing or two.”
Jason watched her, curious to see what trick she might pull as she opened the
container. Estrella took her time, savoring the soup Serene had simmered, then
looked up at Jason, “You want some?”
Jason smirked. “I'm only interested in your notorious juice.”
Estrella burst into laughter, almost spitting out the mouthful she had just taken.
Once the laughter subsided, she pushed the container aside and set her gaze on
Jason. “Go through these papers, will you? If there are no snags, I'll take them
back to the firm.”
She wasn’t upset about bumping into Serene. Jason looked up at her, intrigued.
“Hand them over. Let's have a look.”
Estrella saw right through his gaze, grabbed the documents, and sauntered over,
planting herself squarely on his lap. “What are you up to? Some office
shenanigans?”
Jason laughed out loud, wrapping his arms around her waist and giving it a
playful squeeze. “Like they say, “birds of a feather.” You know me too well.”
Estrella snatched his hand and shoved a pen into it. “Sign these papers quick.
I've got a pile of cases back at the office.”
Jason circled her waist with his arms, spinning her to face him as she straddled
his lap. “Why didn’t you wait up for me last night?” He had been out late, and
when he returned. past eleven, Estrella was already asleep. Now, he was teasing
her for it.
Estrella chuckled. “What, should I stay up all night when you don’t come home?”
It wasn't the first time this had happened.
Jason's hands crept up her back, kneading her neck, easing the tension as he
spoke. “Are you keeping tabs on me for the past?”
He'd promised to come home once a week, but lately, he'd been there almost
every night. Estrella nudged him. “Just sign the papers already.”

He pulled her closer, and Estrella felt the familiar stir of his body against hers,
making her want to curse. She pinched his cheek and said, “Jason, have you no
shame? Any time, any place, you're ready to go.” She remembered the days
when she doubted his vigor.
Jason nibbled her ear, whispering, “Let's make up for last night first, then I'll
sign.”
Estrella asked, “What kind of place is this? What do you take me for?”
“We are married. What do you think I take you for?” Without waiting for Estrella to
respond, Jason added, “If you mind, we can go home now.”
Before Estrelle could respond, Jason lifted her skirt. As Jason went in like that,
Estrella took a deep breath. Jason kissed her and said, “Bear with it. We’ll make
it up later tonight when we get home.”
Estrella retorted, “I'm working late tonight, an all-nighter.”
Jason chuckled, then captured her lips with his. His shamelessness was
something else, Estrella thought. She would never go to Nelson International with
a skirt again.
Actually, even in pants, Jason would find a way.
After Jason's antics finally subsided, Estrella straightened her clothes, but
couldn’t shake off the feeling of a clandestine rendezvous. After she got dressed
and Jason finished signing the documents, she was ready to leave. But Jason
also stood up and said, “I'll drive you.”
“No need, I drove here,” Estrella said, not keen on public displays of their
relationship.
Ignoring her protests, Jason took the papers and led her out. Estrella pulled her
hand back. “I'm still on the market, so don’t ruin my single image.”
At her joke, Jason gave her a quick kiss. “We'll see who dares to be your next.”
After the kiss, someone came out of the office-it was Drew. Estrella relaxed a bit
and stepped on Jason's foot, warning him to behave.
As they exchanged pleasantries with Drew, Drew couldn't help but feel happy for
them, realizing why Jason had been in such a good mood lately.
Once Jason and Estrella turned the corner toward the elevator, the office buzzed
with gossip.
“Estrella looks different today, but man, she’s gorgeous. She and Jason are such
a match.” “Estrella’s got vibes, something Serene just can’t compete with.”
“What was the deal with Serene and Jason anyway? He doesn’t seem that into
her.”
“Who knows? But it feels like there’s something between Jason and Estrella.”
The chatter continued as Serene, about to step out of her office, retreated
instead, not

Before long, they were downstairs, and when the driver brought the car around,
Jason didn’t ask him to drive. He opened the door himself and ushered Estrella
in.
No sooner had the car started than Estrella received a call from a client. By the
time she hung up, they were already miles away from Nelson International.
Jason gripped the steering wheel with both hands and glanced at Estrella,
saying, “You're even busier than I am at work.”
Ever since he had witnessed her in court, Jason refrained from calling her a
“rookie lawyer.
Before Estrella could respond, he asked, “What about when you're pregnant?”
With a smile, Estrella replied, “Your mom said the baby will just pass through my
belly, and once it’s born, I won't have to worry about a thing.”
