30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 270

At six o’clock, Cole returned home to find Jason lounging comfortably in the living room with little Isaac nestled in his arms. “Hey, look who’s here.” Cole said with a jovial grin.

“Hi,” Jason greeted.

Cole didn’t wear his emotions on his face like Autumn did. The way he interacted with Jason remained the same as it was before. From the corner sofa, Estrella’s peripheral vision occasionally swept over Cole, gauging his mood with a watchful eye.

message-that this was no longer his home and that he and Estrella were officially divorced.

Estrella shot her mother a glance, amused by how quick-witted her mother was becoming in her subtle digs at Jason.
