Chapter 273

Jason stood at the edge of Estrella’s bed, watching her deep in slumber, sprawled out across the mattress. Bending down, he gently scooped her up and repositioned her so she lay flat on her back, a position he had always told her was better for her health. Despite his repeated advice back when their relationship was still on good terms, Estrella could never quite shake off her old sleeping habits. It was only during a stretch of time three years ago, when he often returned to Sandalwood Oasis, that she briefly adapted while they slept entwined each night.

Observing that she didn’t stir even as he moved her, Jason couldn’t help but admire her ability to sleep so soundly.

Estrella rolled over, clutching her pillow and burying her face into it, murmuring, “Cut it out, Jason. I’m still tired.” She felt drained from the past few weeks and was in no mood for his antics.

Her mention of fatigue cooled Jason’s playful mood, and even his breathing softened as he watched over her.
