30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 288

Bryce opened his eyes to see a certain someone standing at the doorway, holding bags of groceries, toys, and gift boxes. The sight instantly banished Bryce’s sleepiness, and his eyes widened even more.

After the initial shock, Bryce quickly regained his composure. He leaned casually against the doorframe, giving Jason a once-over from head to toe, with a playful grin, he teased, “Jason, what brings you here?” He had half-expected it was Jesse returning from a business trip.

Outside the door, Jason’s face was as pale as a ghost. “I could’ve asked you the same thing.” he asked.

It had been a week since Jason had been in touch with Estrella, but as soon as he landed, he’d headed straight over to the Dorvold family residence. Autumn had mentioned that Estrella had taken Isaac to Waterfall Acres, so Jason had picked up some groceries with the intention of cooking for them, but to his surprise, it was Bryce who answered the door, clad in Estrella’s clothes.

Needless to say, Jason was far from pleased.

Bryce was unfazed, still leaning against the door with a look of mirth. “How is that so? Isn’t it you who’s been giving Ella the cold shoulder, acting like you don’t need her? I’m just here to keep my Ella company.”

Jason felt a tightness in his chest, anger bubbling up. “When the hell did I ever stop caring about her? When did I say I didn’t need her?”

He’d seen her birth control pills and, sure, he was upset, and a bit moody even, but he had never considered giving up on her, or ignoring her.

He hadn’t reached out to Estrella first this time because he wanted her to soothe him like she used to. But she hadn’t. Instead of pacifying him, Estrella had played her games, hiding Bryce in her home.

At Jason’s words, Bryce couldn’t help but laugh dismissively. “If you haven’t given up on my Ella, then why the attitude? Why disappear for days on end?”

Jason’s gaze got colder, and Bryce quickly made a cutting motion with his hand. “Zip it, I’ll zip it.”
