30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 20

“Hmm?” Jason’s voice, mellifluous and soothing, answered with a touch of warmth and a hint of flirtation.

The couple seemed to have an unspoken understanding, and before Paula could even process what was happening, she was left dumbfounded once again.

Estrella was doing this on purpose. Paula was sure of it. But there was Jason, playing right along with her, responding so suggestively.

Estrella lowered her gaze and glanced at the phone, then chuckled disdainfully. “I thought for a moment you’d actually caught me in bed with someone.”

Her nonchalance only made Paula’s face redden with anger, “Jason, can brazen she is? Just listen to her. It’s clear she’s been messing around.”
