30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 260

By the time Jason slid her blouse aside, Estrella finally managed to push him away, straightening her clothes as she said, “Are we officially together now? Do not push your luck.”

Jason pulled her into an embrace. “Hug.”

His impromptu act of affection rendered Estrella powerless to push him away this time. At last, after he felt satisfied, he released her and drove her home.

When Estrella got back, Isaac was already napping.

Seeing Estrella, Autumn immediately called her over. “Estrella, how did the blind date go? That doctor seemed like a catch, didn’t he?”

Estrella stifled a yawn. “Not a good fit.”

Autumn’s face, previously alight with smile, clouded over with disappointment upon hearing Estrella’s verdict. “What do you mean, ‘hot a good fit’?”

Before Estrella could reply, Autumn pressed on, “I thought he was quite suitable. A man of education and decent job, looks honest and reliable – not the type to flirt around. That’s the kind of man you settle down with.”

Estrella responded, “Just didn’t feel the spark.”

What Estrella didn’t dare tell Autumn was that Jason had whisked her away before she even finished her meal, knowing full well that Autumn would be livid if she found out.

With Estrella’s nonchalant answer, Autumn’s expression grew even more sour. “So, it’s his looks you’re objecting to? The guy isn’t bad-looking. Don’t be too picky, you know. And let’s face it, there aren’t many out there who can hold a candle to Jason’s looks. If you keep being this selective, you might never tie the knot.”

Estrella quipped, “Guess I’ll just stop judging by looks. But mom, I’m so sleepy I can barely keep my eyes open. I’m going upstairs to rest.”
