30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 287

Isaac’s voice broke through the sleepy haze, prompting Estrella to groggily come to, her voice a tender murmur, “Sweetheart, be good,” as she reached for her ringing phone and answered with a sleepy “Hello?”

On the other end of the line was Bryce, his voice laden with defeat. “Estrella, I don’t have anywhere to go. Can you let me into Waterfall Acres?”

Estrella’s heart sank a touch at the sound of Bryce’s voice, but she quickly composed herself, “What’s going on?”

Bryce sighed, “I refused to go on a blind date, and Grandpa kicked me out. Dad froze my bank accounts, and the company’s auditing. I’m backed into a corner.”

He never imagined that his refusal to date would lead the Nelson clan to shut him out, with even Jason siding against him. That man was beyond low, pushing Bryce into the line of fire for his own selfish desires.

When Bryce complained to his mom, she retorted, “Who’s shutting you out? Who’s using you? Shouldn’t you know better at your age? Besides, we’re just asking you to get married. Is that such a bad thing? You ungrateful brat.” With that, she tossed his belongings outside.

So now, Bryce had no choice but to turn to Estrella.

Estrella replied with blurry eyes, “I’ll come over after I wake up.”

Bryce protested, “For heaven’s sake, it’s six already, and it’s dark out. How can you still be asleep?”

If it wasn’t dark, if Jesse wasn’t out of town, and if he had any other place to go, he wouldn’t be in such a sorry state.

“I’ll be there,” Estrella said, her eyes still closed.
