Chapter 206

Landon didn’t respond to Estrella’s skepticism. Instead he simply stated, “Estrella, if you really don’t want to stay with Jason, I won’t force you. But joining the Nelson family wasn’t for nothing. We won’t let you walk away empty-handed.”

“If you and Jason divorce, you’ll get half of the Nelson family’s fortune and shares in Nelson International.”

Estrella dismissed the offer with a wave of her hand. “That’s not necessary.”

Half of the Nelson fortune was at stake. Would Jason even consider letting her go then? Forget it. She would rather forgo that little advantage than stay tied to a marriage she wanted out of.

The “little advantage” Estrella was dismissing was worth at least several billion, if not upwards of ten billion. Any other girl would probably faint at the thought.

Landon was firm. “It’s what you deserve.”

Estrella replied, “If you can convince Jason, I have no problem with it.” If Landon insisted on giving her the money, she might as well accept it.

Landon suggested, “Estrella, you’re planning to head back, right? I’ll have you driven home.”

“I drove here myself. It’ll be easier for me to drive back.”

Estrella wished to return on her own, and Landon didn’t press further.

When Estrella got out of the car and the driver got in, Landon gazed at Estrella with a touch of melancholy for a while before instructing the driver to start the car and leave

Watching Landon drive away, Estrella’s doubts only grew. Landon hadn’t just avoided answering her probing; he was even ready to give her half of the Nelson estate. No mat how generous he was, that was half of what the Nelsons had built over generations.
