30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 136
Even though Estrella wasn't the brightest bulb in the box, she wasn’t that dim
either.
Jason placed his hand on Estrella’s shoulder, turning her to face him. “Estrella,
cut the act.”
Estrella turned away from him again, too irritated to even look at him, let alone
argue back.
What a piece of work!
If she actually wrote that promise, she’d be the fool.
Seeing that Estrella ignored him after he spoke, Jason's gaze lingered on her
before he stood up from the bed and switched on the main light. “Estrella, you
sure you won't write this pledge?” he asked.
The bright light stung her eyes. She propped herself up in bed and sat up,
exasperated. “Jason, are you out of your mind? Who the hell writes such a
promise in the middle of the night? And come on, are you a toddler? Does that
piece of paper actually mean anything?”
Jason looked down at her without responding to her rant, simply tugging at the
sash of his robe. “Sure you won't write it?”
Estrellas eyes trailed down to his toned waist and further up to his abs and
pecs... Feeling a dangerous sensation creeping up on her, she swallowed hard
and then clutched the sheets tighter. “What are you trying to do?” They had just
finished a marathon sex.
Jason flexed his neck, calmly saying, “Maybe I wasn’t enthusiastic enough before
and didn’t make you comfortable enough to decide to stay with me. So, it seems
necessary to turn up the heat again.”
Estrella felt a tingling on her scalp. She wasn't exaggerating-her legs were jelly,
and she had no strength left. If Jason went for another few rounds, she was sure
she wouldn't be able to get out of bed the next morning.
Their eyes met, Jason cleared his throat, and Estrella scrambled out of bed. “I'll
write. I'll write it for you.”
“Where's the paper? The pen?” she said, jumping out of bed barefoot, clamoring
for writing materials.
Behind her, a faint smile played on Jason's lips, but he quickly subdued it and
walked over to the desk to fetch a pen and paper for her.
Taking the pen and paper from Jason, Estrella looked at him and said, “How
should I write this? Maybe you write it, and I'll just sign?”
Jason leaned against the desk. “I'll dictate, and you write.” He began, “I, Estrella,
hereby promise Jason that marrying him is entirely of my own free will, without
any ulterior motives. Regardless of wealth or poverty, no matter what happens, I
will stand by Jason, forever and ever...”
Before he could finish, Estrella looked up at him with disdain. He had the nerve to
ask for such a pledge when all he had given her was a shoddy, ill-fitting ring. His
audacity knew no bounds.
Ignoring her contemptuous look, Jason merely pulled at the sash of his robe
again. Without another word, Estrella ducked her head and dutifully began to
write what he had dictated.
Jason tightened his sash with satisfaction and waited for her to finish before
continuing, “I promise never to ask for a divorce from Jason on any pretext or for
any reason, especially after we have children. I will never even speak of divorce.”
He paused, then added, “If I break this promise... from now on, no more
climaxes.”
Estrella slammed the pen down on the desk and glared at Jason. “You're a real
piece of work, Jason. No wonder everyone talks behind your back. Your mother
was right; you've got all the family’s vices rolled into one.”
She had expected him to threaten her with lightning strikes or a legal battle, but
instead, he cruelly wished her a lack of pleasure. Downright wicked. She wasn’t
going to write such a humiliating thing.
As Estrella tossed the pen aside, Jason started to undo his sash again. She
didn’t pick up the pen this time but instead looked at him and said, “Go ahead,
might as well enjoy it while I can.”
“Brave words, Estrella,” he said with a grin that wasn’t quite a grin.
Estrella turned to face him, and as her eyes fell on his lower body, she noticed
how... impressive he was even before he got started. That tingling sensation
returned.
He was the worst. Before, he wouldn't let her fuck him when she wanted to. Now,
she didn’t want to, and he was threatening her to have sex.
As Jason's robe began to tent, Estrella turned away and picked up the discarded
pen. If he was going to force her every night, make a move every single evening,
multiple times...
Well, she might as well write it. After all, what was written in haste couldn't
possibly come to pass, right?
As she wrote down Jason's words, Estrella cursed him in her mind a million times
over for good measure.
What terrible deeds had the Nelson family committed to produce such a son?
Reluctantly, Estrella finished the pledge, and Jason slid the stamp pad toward
her. She signed her name with gritted teeth and resentment and pressed her
thumbprint onto the paper.
Finally, the pledge was complete. Estrella looked at him and asked, “So I wrote
the pledge. What about you?”
Jason replied, “Same here. I won't bring up divorce either.”

Seeing right through her little game, Jason picked up the pen to write beneath
her pledge. Estrella quickly reached out to stop him. “You don’t have to write
anything. I was just asking. I'm not as childish as you and don’t want to pressure
you.”
She regretted her impulsive question as she tried to stop Jason. It was just an
offhand remark, but Jason took it seriously and was about to put pen to paper.

Estrella stood there, her head spinning with confusion. They had been on the
brink of discussing divorce, and now this. What in the world was Jason thinking?
Did he not want to end their marriage? Was he aiming for a lifetime of mutual
torment?
Even if what she had said that one time was harsh, he had retaliated with a slap,
a hit that left her reeling. Surely, by now, he should have cooled off.
The two stood there, eyeing each other, and Estrella didn’t bother to delve
deeper into his thoughts. Other people's wedding vows often turned out to be
empty words, so what weight did this piece of paper they'd just written hold?
Suppressing a yawn, Estrella languidly rose from her chair.
Estrella had, after all, written the pledge for him, and Jason’s mood lifted.

tremor. Visit bignovels.com to read
