Chapter 258

Estrella hadn’t been keeping tabs on Jason’s whereabouts, nor had she been tracking Holly’s movements. It was the night Holly visited the Sandalwood Oasis that Estrella received an anonymous email full of photographs documenting Holly’s presence there.

Estrella glanced at the images and dismissed them, well aware someone was deliberately trying to stir up trouble by showing her only the pictures of Holly arriving at the Oasis, not leaving. It was a clear setup for misunderstanding.

Truth be told, she couldn’t care less about Jason’s love life. In the days following the receipt of the photos, she hadn’t mentioned a word about it. She knew Jason wouldn’t get involved with Holly at this juncture, seeing as he was investing all his time and energy on matters involving her and Isaac. The only reason she brought it up now was because Jason had just made a sarcastic remark, so she intentionally said that.

“Let the furt come, then. Who’s afraid of a little pain?” she thought defiantly.

Sure enough, when Estrella mentioned Holly, Jason’s complexion changed instantly. He explained, “Sure, Holly went to the Oasis that day, but it’s not what you think between her and me.”

“Really? You can say that when she was literally in your house? And here I am getting grilled for having a meal in public? You are really being hypocritical. Besides, Jason, I’m not your wife anymore.”

Estrella felt a strange satisfaction seeing Jason’s anger. Maybe it was payback for past grievances.

With her sharp wit, Jason was left speechless, thinking that not even a hundred extra mouths could help him win an argument against her. “Damn it, why did she have to study law? I can’t win a single fight,” he cursed internally.

At that moment, Jason felt like that he was about to explode out of anger.
