Chapter 66

Thomas and Bryce were at their wits’ end with Estrella’s ambiguous stance. Was she still considering divorce? Would she still have their backs?

Grayson and his crew couldn’t help but smirk with knowing glances as Estrella plopped down beside Jason, who seemed visibly cheered by her presence.

With her arms wrapped tight around Jason’s neck, Estrella, all smiles, teased, “You didn’t bite when I mentioned divorce just now. That must mean you don’t want to split. That makes me happier than a jackpot winner.”

Her playful words were like music to Jason’s ears, though he feigned indignation, “Estrella, so many people are staring at us. Come on.”

Unfazed, she retorted with a grin, “I’m hugging my own husband, not someone else’s. I’ll be shameless if I want to.”

Then, turning to Grayson and the others, she quipped, “Right, guys?”

Grayson and Taylor chuckled. “Estrella, only you can handle Jason like that.”

“Don’t give me too much credit,” Estrella shot back playfully. “As long as he doesn’t start cheating on me, we’re good.”

Thomas and Bryce exchanged puzzled glances, wondering if they should still be pushing for a divorce.

Estrella, noticing their confusion, said with a mix of amusement and exasperation, “What are you two still standing there for? Sit down.”

After Estrella finished speaking, the two of them stole a glance at Jason. Seeing that Jason didn’t say anything further, and Grayson also gestured for them to sit down, they both breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

As Bryce and Thomas settled down, Estrella tried to move away from Jason, but he tightened his grip on her waist. She paused, then looked up at Jason only to find him casually chatting with Grayson and the others, his gaze lingering on her last. She couldn’t help but smile. Leaning closer, she whispered a playful warning in his ear, “Jason, easy there, we’ve got company.”
