30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 143

At that moment, Estrella caught Jason’s gaze as he was already watching her.

Their eyes locked, and with an air of calm, Estrella said, “Answer it.”

Jason’s heart skipped a beat, his nerves frayed. But faced with Estrella’s unyielding stare, Jason reluctantly answered the call in front of her. It was the only way to clear the air.

“Jason,” came Serene’s voice through the phone, already tinged with a sob.

It had been a while since Serene had been involved in Jason’s work, and their contact had dwindled. The unexpected call today likely meant trouble was afoot.

At the sound of her “Jason,” Jason glanced up at Estrella again. To his relief, her expression remained mostly unchanged.

On the other end, Serene’s voice, now choked with tears, cried out, “Jason, my mom’s sick again. She trashed the house, and she hurt Vincent, Jason, I…”

“I’m just so exhausted!”

After her confession, Serene burst into tears. Soon after, her brother’s voice came through, “Jason, why has my mom become like this? She just hit me and my sister. Jason, I miss you so much! It’s been so long since I’ve seen you.”

Following Vincent’s plea, Serene, through her tears, said, “Jason, I’ve been trying to calm Vincent down for ages. He must have been scared tonight and kept asking for you, saying he wanted to see you. I know you…”

Before Serene could finish, Jason cut her off, “I understand.”
