30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 183

Marie and the rest of the domestic staff were nowhere to be found as Estrella, overwhelmed by despair and helplessness, wept inconsolably.

“Bryce,” No one came out of the house. Feeling waves of intense pain in her stomach, Estrella burst into tears.

Today, she shouldn’t have trusted Jason to pick her up, gone back to Sandalwood Oasis with Drew, and waited for Jason at home.

If only she had returned to Waterfall Acres, she wouldn’t have had that nasty encounter with that stray cat, and taken this terrible fall.

“Ella.” Just as Estrella was about to muster the strength to get up, Bryce’s voice suddenly filled the air behind her. Bryce went pale when he saw Estrella crumpled on the ground. He rushed to her side, dropping to his knees and steadying her. “Ella, what happened?”

His gaze settled on Estrella’s face, red-nosed and tear-streaked, and his heart shattered into pieces. In all the years he’d known Estrella, she’d rarely ever cried, let alone appeared so disheveled and helpless.

Bryce was there, and to Estrella, he was a lifeline. She clutched at his collar desperately, “Bryce, the hospital. Take me to the hospital.”

Bryce, trembling, lifted Estrella off the ground and made a beeline for the hospital. On the way, Bryce’s shaking didn’t cease. His lips turned a worrying shade of blue.

He had never been so anxious and frightened in his 23 years of life, especially seeing Estrella’s face drained of color. A mix of tenderness and rage boiled inside him.

Estrella had to divorce Jason no matter what.

Outside the operating room, when the nurse handed Estrella’s down jacket to him, Bryce only then noticed blood on the clothes. Back at Sandalwood Oasis, Estrella’s layers had concealed the blood, and the waterproof jacket hadn’t let it seep through. Now, gazing at Estrella’s stained clothes, Bryce felt as if his heart had been ripped out.
