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?”

With that, she tossed the document bag back into his lap, “Take your stuff and get out of the car.”

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.

Soon, they pulled up in front of a quaint garden bistro and made their way in together.

Once the waiter had poured them some ice water and left the private dining room, Jason said, “I had those videos examined by the expert you mentioned – no signs of tampering.” He paused, then added, “Maybe we should consider a medical check-up?”

If Estrella was truly behind the incident, she would remember, but her memory was blank. Jason felt it was time to approach this from a different angle.
