Chapter 91

Estrella regained her composure and sat down with a smile, “Mr. Jason, you sure can hold your liquor.”

Jason followed suit, sitting down while wincing and taking a sharp breath.

Catching his expression, Estrella looked at him with a glance full of disdain, thinking to herself. “If you can’t handle your drinks, why put on a show? Who are you trying to impress?”

Her contemptuous look didn’t go unnoticed, and Jason gritted his teeth, “Not even offering me a bite to eat?”

Logan, catching the awkwardness, chimed in with a grin, “Estrella, Mr. Jason went hard on the drinks. Why don’t you serve him some veggies?”

With everyone watching, Estrella couldn’t exactly refuse, so she begrudgingly forked a few green beans onto Jason’s plate.

As the alcohol started to loosen tongues around the table, the conversation picked up again. Jason was half-listening to the chatter, his attention mostly fixed on Estrella.

Serene, seated next to Drew, hadn’t taken her eyes off Jason and Estrella the entire time. She knew Jason was into Estrella. He had intentionally downed that drink earlier, deliberately stirring up suspicion about their relationship to ward off potential suitors.

Having known Jason for years, she’d never seen him give anyone this much attention, not even Holly. Serene envied that Estrella could marry Jason, and Jason also cared about

Post-dinner, Estrella nonchalantly ate the peanuts, eavesdropping on the banter, when suddenly she felt a hand on her thigh under the table.

She turned to look at the person on her right, watching him chat away as if nothing were amiss. However, his left hand was causing mischief under the table. Her face soured, and with a flick, she snapped a nut shell onto the table in front of him.

Jason looked at the shell that had flown over, his fingers deliberately brushing against her under the table as he leaned in and whispered cheekily, “Aren’t you usually quite bold and fiery?”
