30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 177

Before Estrella could utter a word, Jason cut in, “Estrella, don’t even think about divorce.” From the moment he agreed to the marriage, he had never considered ending it.

Estrella, seeing Jason’s refusal to consider separation, stared at him motionless for a long while, then carelessly tossed her breakfast to the side. After that, she just turned her face towards the window and fell silent.

More than ten minutes later, the car stopped at the base of the law firm’s building. Estrella got out and walked away without looking back. Holly had come back from death, and Estrella wondered how long Jason could keep up his act.

Watching Estrella enter the law firm, and just as her silhouette disappeared, Jason’s phone rang it was Holly.

Holly’s voice came through gentle and soft, “Jason, can we meet?”

Twenty minutes later, they met at the café where they had last seen each other. Holly was originally confined to a wheelchair, but seeing Jason approach, she braced her hands on the armrests and stood up, “Jason, how have you been?”

“Miss, be careful,” the servant rushed over to help Holly as she rose.

“I’m fine,” Holly responded with a smile, dismissing the servant’s hand and walking over to Jason.

Sensing Holly’s rare happiness, the young servant quietly left them to their reunion.

As they approached each other, Holly looked up at Jason with eyes full of mirth. Jason, feeling the intensity of her gaze, quickly looked away and then motioned to a nearby bench, “Take a seat.” Without waiting for her response, he seated himself first.

Holly took her time and sat down beside him, striking up a conversation, “This winter’s been so mild. Ravenwood is always so comfortable. But it looks like a cold snap is coming. I heard it might snow for Christmas.”

“Yeah,” Jason replied briefly, waiting for Holly to continue.

Holly leaned back on the bench and turned to face him, “The Silverbrook project has been green-lit. The Dorvolds won the bid. I just submitted my resignation at the company, and won’t be stepping into the office or dealing with Innovative
