30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 291

As dusk settled over the household, Jason stepped out of Estrella’s room to find Bryce lazily sprawled on the floor, constructing a tower of Legos with little Isaac. With a poker face, he asked, “Not planning on packing up and heading back?”

Bryce glanced up at Jason, his tone nonchalant. “Head back where? The world’s too big, yet there’s no room left for me in it.” He paused, then declared, “I’ve made up my mind. From now on, I’m crashing at Waterfall Acres. I’m gonna bunk with Ella.”

As he spoke, Bryce turned towards Estrella and playfully pleaded, “Ella, you’ll take care of me, right?” He quickly added, “I can help you with your son, you know.”

Since Jason and Keith had teamed up against him, then he would let Jason’s wife take care of him. In any case, there’s a countermeasure for every policy.

Before Estrella could respond, Jason kicked Bryce’s arm with a swift move of his leg. Bryce, still sitting cross-legged on the floor, quickly shielded Isaac, fearing he might get hurt in the commotion.

Jason bent down and scooped Isaac into his own arms.

Isaac beamed and called out, “Daddy.”

Isaac’s sweetness brought a smile to Jason’s face. He turned to Estrella and remarked, “Sweet talker, just like you.”

Though he hadn’t got the answer he was fishing for, Jason couldn’t help but notice Isaac starting to resemble him, especially around the eyes and nose.

Estrella chuckled at Jason’s observation but didn’t tell him that Isaac’s reticence was also a trait inherited from him.

On the floor, Bryce watched the happy family scene unfold before him, and with a flick of his wrist, he tossed a Lego block aside in frustration. “So it’s just you three now, huh? I’m the odd one out.”
