Girandina sure didn’t trust her grandan, did she?
Estrella, assing the alluation, als started piling toed onte Jason's plate, saying,
“Thanks for taking care of the agency stuff. You should put up”
Jason shot her a frosty look, but Estrella just entled at him, her eyes crinkling into
slits Having landed the legal prosy, her spirits were earing
Then, setzing the moment, Kristin chimed in, “son, Estrella, it's not often you
guys come home Why don’t you stay over tonight?”
Amber added, “This old house has great vibes You two stay the night, and who
knows, Estrella might get pregnant”
She continued with a twinkle in her eye, “Jaso, you put in a good effort later. Let's
aim for twins”
Jason sighed. When all was said and done, the family just wanted them to hurry
up and have a baby
So, when they got back to the bedroom upstats, Estrella asked, “So, are we
doing this?” Jason gave her an indifferent glance. “Estrella, can’t you think of
anything else?” Estrella chuckled. “What else is there to think about when I am
with you? Besides, would you be okay if it was with someone else?”
Jason stepped closer, pinching her cheek. “You really have no shame, do you?”
Estrella brushed his hand away and wrapped her arms around his neck. “You're
my husband. Why would I need any pretenses?” For her, having a child was far
more important than maintaining her image. Besides, she had long since lost any
image she had in Jason's eyes.
Looking down at her, Jason said, “Estrella, that's no way for a woman to behave.”
“Nonsense,” Estrella retorted. “I'm exactly that kind of woman.”
Then, standing on her tiptoes, her lips almost brushed his as she called out,
“Jason.”
“Hmm?” Jason's response seemed to wind around her. Taking the cue, Estrella
pressed her lips firmly to his.
With the softness of her kiss, Jason tensed, his arms wrapping around her waist.
As he meant to push her away, his hands kneaded her instead. He was starting
to lose control.
His body felt a surge of heat and restlessness, but Estrella’s little scheming, as
well as the Intentions of his parents and grandparents, became clear once again.
So, he pushed away Estrella and went straight to the bathroom.

In a split second, Estrella’s patience exploded. She ripped off her slippers and
hurled them towards the bathroom. “Jason, are you even a man?”
Jason actually preferred to handle things in the bathroom rather than touch her.
Estrella felt humiliated.
Half an hour later, when Jason emerged from the bathroom, Estrella was already
lying down, turned away from him. As Jason sat down next to her and
accidentally touched. her, Estrella spun around and kicked him, catching him off
guard and sending him tumbling to the floor.
“Estrella.” Jason roared in a low voice, but Estrella remained silent, her back still
to him.
Rubbing his forehead, Jason knew she was genuinely angry this time. He sat
beside her again, and when Estrella tried to kick him, he pinned her down,
leaving her no room to
move.
Knowing she was no match for Jason, Estrella propped herself up on the bed.
“Fine, I'll leave if that's what you want.” She couldn't accept the way things had
gone with Jason just moments ago. No wife should have to endure such
frustration.
With a darkened expression, Jason said, “Estrella, can't you just keep it down for
one night?”
She was the one making a fuss? Estrella felt a sudden surge of self-pity, her
eyes welling up, but she quickly composed herself. “Jason, if you really can’t
stand this life, go and talk to your dad.”
After two years, she was tired of the coldness and the loneliness. If it wasn’t
working, it was better to end things sooner rather than later. Whether she had
children or became a mother wasn’t such a big deal.
She started to reach for her coat in the wardrobe.
Seeing she meant business, Jason grabbed her arm. Estrella swung back, and
with a forceful pull, he sent her sprawling onto the bed. As Estrella tried to rise,
Jason pressed. down on her, his hands over hers. “Estrella, let's not turn this into
something we can’t back down from.”
They had just acted like a loving couple, and now she was turning her back and
walking out? What would the elders think?
Tears rimming her eyes, Estrella turned her head away, refusing to look at Jason.
Jason felt a tug in his heart and leaned in to kiss her, but Estrella buried her face
deeper into the pillow. At this moment, she was no longer willing, and she didn’t
care about Jason anymore.
Powerless, he tried to reason with her gently, “Didn’t we agree before coming
back? I will come home once a week.”

Estrella spent the night awake. Jason, however, slept soundly with her in his
arms, more peacefully than ever before. But when he woke up, her side of the
bed was cold; Estrella was already gone.
Jason turned to look at the side, thinking about her stubbornness last night. She
didn’t even let him touch her, always facing away from him. He felt uncomfortable
in his heart. In the past, no matter what he said or did, how he glared at her, she
always faced him with a smile. This time, she wasn’t playing along.
