Chapter 247

Before, Jason only thought that Isaac’s personality was a bit like his, but now Jason felt like even Isaac’s features resembled his own. Although, overall, Isaac still looked like Estrella.

After wrapping up a conversation with Jason, Estrella turned her attention to Isaac, who needed some comforting. “Sweetie, Mommy already had a word with Uncle Jason. He won’t do that again. I’m all yours, and no one is going to take me away.”

Isaac’s mood seemed to brighten at her words, and he stuttered out, “I don’t need Daddy anymore.” If Daddy was here to compete for Mommy’s affection, then as far as he was concerned, he could do without a daddy from now on.

At Estrella’s side, Jason’s expression darkened, Pinching Isaac’s chin gently, he asked, “If I can’t be your daddy, then what should I be?”

Since Jason kissed Estrella last night, Isaac had stopped calling him ‘Daddy’. Now Isaac did not seem to be interested in the presence of Jason at all.

Upon hearing Jason’s question, Isaac turned his head and stared at Estrella with expressive eyes and lively expressions.

Jason turned to Estrella and said, “Translate for me.”

Estrella held Isaac close and said nonchalantly, “My son says that the whole being-your-dad ship has sailed. But he’s open to the idea of brotherhood.”

As soon as the words left Estrella’s lips, Jason reached out and held her chin, “Estrella, do you really get a kick out of these little victories?”
