Chapter 112

Jason interlaced his fingers with Estrella’s, grinning as he introduced her, “My wife.” There was a palpable pride in his voice when he said it.

The owner’s eyes went wide with surprise. “Mr. Jason, you’re married?” After a moment’s recovery, the owner looked at them both with a warm smile. “Mrs. Nelson is quite the beauty, so elegant. You two are a perfect match.”

He quickly followed up with, “Mr. Jason, this is the first time you have brought your wife here for a meal. Don’t rush off to settle the bill later. This one’s on me for Mrs. Nelson.”

Estrella tasted her dish and noticed Jason staring at her. “Why are you looking at me like that? Aren’t you going to eat?”

Instead of answering directly, Jason quipped, “I’m more interested in devouring you than the meal.”

Estrella laughed it off. “Alright, then. No sleep tonight. Let’s see if I can wear you out.”
