Chapter 254

Estrella eyed Jason coolly, taking her sweet time before responding, “Now you learn how to sweet-talk, where was this charm when I needed it?”

Jason set the bag aside, then pulled out her wallet, extracting a few bills and saying nonchalantly, “This should cover me.”

Estrella scoffed, “Jason, seriously?”

Tucking the cash away, Jason inquired, “You seem upset?” He had noticed her sour mood as soon as she got into the car.

Estrella exhaled without a word, and Jason suggested, “Let’s grab some food. I’d like to talk about the fire incident too.”

Upon hearing Jason mention the fire seven years ago, Estrella gave him a look and started the car.
