Chapter 239

Estrella had left the hospital earlier that morning, and since then, Jason had been blowing up her phone with calls and texts. To Estrella, it seemed clear that Jason’s persistence was nothing short of harassment, especially since he hadn’t even mentioned the evidence she was waiting for. Fed up, she had blocked him. This left Jason with no choice but to reach out using Drew’s phone.

Hearing Jason’s words, Estrella replied, “I’m spending time with my son right now. I’ll come over once he’s asleep.” She definitely wasn’t keen on Jason coming to the Dorvold residence.

“You’re still not fully mobile,” Jason insisted. “I’ll send Drew to pick you up.”

Estrella didn’t give him the time of day, abruptly ending the call with a click.

Later, after playing with Isaac and finishing dinner at home, Estrella handed Isaac over to Autumn and stepped out. Sure enough, as soon as she reached the doorway, Drew was already there waiting for her.

Throughout the drive to the hospital, Drew didn’t bring up the fire incident. Instead, he poured his energy into telling Estrella about how tough the past three years had been for Jason, how much he had missed her, and his unwavering fidelity. Drew assured her that there was never anything romantic between Jason and Holly-it was all just one big misunderstanding.

Estrella, only half-listening to Drew’s heartfelt defense, casually dug at her ear and said, “Drew, you’re wasted as an assistant. You should be a comedian.” She had never realized before how skilled Drew was at pleading someone’s case.

“Ms. Estrella, I just don’t want there to be any misunderstandings between you and Mr. Jason,” Drew tried to explain.

“There are no misunderstandings between us, Drew-only facts,” Estrella retorted, leaving Drew speechless. She had a way with words that made it impossible for him to win any argument.
