30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 141

Estrella lay on the bed with her eyes closed as if her body and soul were floating above, detached and weightless.

Afterward, Jason lounged in the bed, lighting a cigarette for himsHe snuffed it out before he could take more than a couple of drags. The rush had been so intense, so utterly satisfying, that he craved a smoke, but Estrella wasn’t fond of the smell of tobacco. He didn’t want to risk her health just in case she stirred. So, after only two puffs, the cigarette was extinguished.

Gazing down at Estrella, he watched as she quivered on the bed and chuckled, “Still feeling it, huh? Women should enjoy it even more.”

Estrella’s bare shoulders peeked out from under the covers as she looked back at him and playfully suggested, “Maybe next time, I’ll take the lead…”

Knowing that Estrella was not one to mince words, Jason shot her a stern look, and she promptly mimed zipping her lips.

When it came down to it, their chemistry was seamless. Neither had others to compare to, but they both knew they shared an uncommon connection – both were intellectuals, and they understood these matters well.

The room fell into a serene silence, and Jason snuggled under the covers. Propping his head up with his right hand, he lay on his side and began to tidy the stray locks on Estrella’s face, asking softly, “Did you run into anyone today? Anything you need to tell me?”

Estrella just looked at him. He’d practically asked her point-blank. She might as well come clean.

Pulling the blanket over her shoulders, she replied nonchalantly, “You already know, don’t you? So why ask?”

Jason reached out to her, “It’s one thing for me to say it, another for you to admit it.”

Estrella shivered under his touch.
