30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 271

piercing gaze caused a ripple of trepidation in Estrella’s heart. She had spilled the beans, and she knew it. Still, she managed to maintain her composure and casually remarked, “He’s probably just picking up your habits from spending time with you lately.”

Jason didn’t press the issue after Estrella’s explanation. Instead, his mood seemed to lift, and the smile on his face grew even brighter.

Estrella, on the other hand, wasn’t having any of it. “What’s got you so chipper, Jason?”

With a playful pinch on her chin, Jason teased, “Since when do you get to police my mood?” Even as he spoke, a grin lingered on his face.

Estrella felt guilty under his smiling gaze and complained, “Stop it, your grin gives me the creeps.”

Jason’s smile remained as he gathered both Estrella and Isaac into a warm embrace, saying leisurely, “Blood relation or not, as long as Isaac takes after me, I’m happy.”

Upon hearing this, Estrella pushed Isaac into his arms, “If you’re so thrilled, why don’t you. give him his bath tonight? I’ve got some things to wrap up.”

“Sure thing,” Jason agreed without hesitation. He then scooped up Isaac and his pajamas and headed for the bathroom.

A short while later, as Estrella was busy at the computer, the sound of Jason and Isaac making a ruckus in the bathroom drifted over to her. Estrella glanced toward the bathroom with a smile. Isaac really did adore Jason, despite their relatively short acquaintance.

“Mommy, I smell so good,” Isaac boasted to Estrella, fresh from the bath in Jason’s arms.

Estrella looked at him with a beaming smile, “Come here, let Mommy have a sniff.” She inhaled deeply, praising his sweet scent, which left Isaac grinning from ear to ear.

Watching the joy of them, Jason felt an indescribable sense of fulfillment and warmth.

After Isaac and Estrella had their playful moment, Jason carried Isaac back to bed, played with toys with him, and read stories until Isaac fell asleep. Then Jason walked up behind Estrella, hugged her, rested his chin gently on her shoulder, and closed his eyes softly.
