Chapter 116

Jason seethed with barely contained rage. There was a mixture of amusement and

annoyance dancing in Estrella’s eyes as she comforted him, “They didn’t touch me. It was over my clothes.”

“Over your clothes, huh? Were you wearing jeans? Did you have socks on?” Jason’s voice was edged with sarcasm. He hadn’t touched her that much, and they hadn’t shared enough intimate moments, but now these nobodies had their hands on her. Thinking about this, he felt so uncomfortable in his heart..

The bottom line was, even if he had her countless times, it didn’t give anyone else the right to lay a finger on her. Not even for a massage.

Jason was jealous. Estrella sighed heavily. She patted her forehead, at a loss with him. “I’m a married woman. For heaven’s sake, those guys aren’t even hitched. Who’s taking advantage of whom is still up for debate! It’s not like I’m at a loss here.”

Estrella’s twisted logic didn’t phase Jason, who turned to the guys giving Bryce a rubdown. “Why’s Bryce so quiet all of a sudden?”

No sooner had Jason finished his sentence than Bryce resumed his wailing.

Estrella was at her wit’s end – exasperated by Jason and driven mad by Bryce’s noise.

“Estrella, Estrella, save me. I’m dying here.”

Bryce’s voice was pitiful, and Jesse looked upon him with such sympathy you’d think she was about to send flower to him for a peaceful afterlife.

Seeing this, Estrella turned to Jason. “What do you suggest we do, Jason?”

It wasn’t Bryce’s pain that concerned Estrella. It was the fact that he was too loud. If she just walked away and left Bryce like this, it would seem awfully cold. So, she turned to negotiate with Jason.

Jason snorted coldly, “Your mess, but you’re asking me?”

Estrella was ready to throw hands. It was just a massage. What had she done wrong? Did massage parlors exist only for men’s pleasure?
