Chapter 178

Bryce hadn’t even finished his sentence when Estrella cut him off, “All right, I’ll get a divorce.” She knew Bryce so well that she could guess the end of his sentence with her toes, so she didn’t bother waiting for him to finish.

“That’s more like it. I’ll get some extra paperwork ready for you.” Bryce offered.

Estrella said, “Deal. Once this is done, I’ll get you that muscle car you’ve been drooling over.” In the past, Bryce had always sided with Jason, helping him persuade Estrella to divorce. Now, Bryce had completely switched sides.

After chatting some more, Bryce found out Estrella was about to head out on a business trip. She was already on her way back to Waterfall Acres to pack her bags, and Bryce eagerly scurried over to help.

Estrella eyed Bryce from head to toe as he arrived, all smiles, “You’re always poking your nose into my divorce, popping over here whenever. Are you secretly crushing on me or what?”

Bryce’s hands dove into his pockets casually, “You know what kind of force of nature you are. Me, have a crush on you? Don’t flatter yourself, Estrella.”

After his retort, Estrella kicked him lightly, “What did you just say?”

Bryce dodged, playing it off, “Nothing. It’s an honor to serve you, my queen.” Estrella rolled her eyes at him, then promptly had him help finish packing her suitcase.

On the way to drop her off at the office, Bryce noticed Estrella gazing out of the car window in silence, “Feeling blue? Not happy?”

Estrella chuckled softly, “I’ve been numb to it for ages. No room for sadness here.” If she let every little thing get to her, she would have been a goner long ago. Thanks to Jason’s ‘training’ over the last couple of years, she had became much tougher.
