30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband (Estrella and Jason) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 

Their eyes locked, and Estrella, groggy with sleep, stared at Jason for a long moment before closing her eyes again, convinced she was dreaming. But the pressure on her wrist felt too real, too heavy. 

When she opened her eyes again and saw Jason still in front of her, Estrella’s displeasure showed. With a frown, she said, “Jason, for crying out loud, I’m sick here. Have you no shame?” 

At Estrella’s words, Jason was also

Estrella struggled to free her wrists and commanded, “Get your hands off me.” 

Jason did not remove his hands but instead looked into her eyes and asked, “Estrella,

what if I told you I like you, and I don’t want a divorce? Can we start over?” 

Bryce’s attentiveness to Estrella earlier that evening had sent Jason into a tizzy. Whether it was Korey or Bryce, he was actually quite bothered by them. Estrella was his, and his alone. 

That’s how people can be sometimes they just can’t stand the thought of someone else coveting what’s theirs. 

After staring unblinkingly at Jason for a long spell and seeing that he hadn’t disappeared, Estrella felt a headache coming on and turned her head away. Jason’s sudden seriousness was more than she could bear. She must be hallucinating from the fever to be witnessing this scene. 

When Jason saw Estrella turn away, he gently took her chin to direct her gaze 

him. “Estrella.”

Still, Estrella refused to open her eyes to look at Jason. In the dead of night, he was up not sleeping but acting crazy with her. It was just because he saw her getting cozy with Bryce lately, and she had a video chat during the day that made him jealous. 

Him saying he liked her didn’t mean squat unless he could do something wild like break a boulder on his chest or swallow a sword and come out unscathed – only then might she 

believe him. 

“Estrella.” 

After calling her name again and seeing that Estrella kept pretending to be asleep, Jason leaned in to kiss her. Estrella, in turn, quickly twisted her neck to avoid him. 

The next second, there was a crack in her neck, and Estrella’s eyes 

flew open, furious. “Jason, when will you ever stop? Damn it, my neck!” She took a deep breath from the 

pain.

Jason wasn’t sure how to respond. He reached for his phone to call a doctor, but Estrella stopped him, “Don’t make a fuss in the middle of the night. Go back to your room. I’ll be fine after some sleep.” 

Ignoring her, Jason gently prodded her neck. “Can you move your neck?” 

“Ouch, ouch, it hurts!” Estrella cried out, and Jason quickly withdrew his hand. “Is it the bone that hurts, or the muscle?” 

“Both,” Estrella whimpered. 

Jason reached for the phone again. 

Estrella stopped him once more. “I’ll feel better once you leave.” 

He couldn’t shake the feeling that she was just trying to get rid of him. 

After locking eyes for a moment, Estrella realized Jason had seen through her, so she nonchalantly turned over and lay face down on the bed. 

Jason raised his right hand and began to massage her neck in sync with her movements. 

“It hurts, be gentle.” 

“Jason, are you taking revenge or what?” 

“It hurts.” 

Jason’s expression darkened. “Estrella, if you keep yelling, I’m going to get hard.” 

Estrella’s left leg emerged from the covers and she kicked him, not too gently. 

The night was deep, and at this moment, the tension between them wasn’t as stiff as during their previous encounters. Estrella didn’t bring up divorce, either. She had promised not to mention it during his hospital stay, and she intended to keep her word. 

As Jason massaged the back of her neck, he asked, “Who were you video chatting with at lunch today?” 

Lying lazily on the bed, Estrella teased, “My man.” 

Jason’s expression darkened, and his grip tightened, eliciting another cry from Estrella. 

Jason continued, “About what I said earlier… 

Estrella cut him off. “How about you smash a boulder on your chest, and then I’ll consider whether to believe you.” 

The pressure increased once more from Jason’s hands. Estrella cried out again, “Go back to your own damn room!” 

Later, she couldn’t recall when she had fallen asleep. 

The following morning, when she awoke, Jason had already changed into his clothes and

was taking a work call by the window. 

Shielding her eyes with her arm, Estrella finally understood why he couldn’t get better. He wasn’t taking his shots properly, wasn’t taking his medication, and wasn’t resting on schedule. How could he possibly recover? 

“You’re awake?” After resting her eyes for a bit Jason’s voice suddenly sounded very close. Estrella removed her arm to see that he had approached. 

“Mom was here earlier,” Jason said. “She saw you sleeping deeply and didn’t wake you. Breakfast is on the table.” 

“Your mom or my mom?” Estrella asked. 

If it was Autumn, she would be upset because she had told her repeatedly to stay home. with Isaac and not come to the hospital. 

Noting how Estrella distinguished between the two, Jason casually said, “My mom.” 

Relieved, Estrella got out of bed. 

As she got up, Jason pinched the back of her neck. “Does it still hurt?” 

“No, it’s fine now,” Estrella replied. 

“I’ve got a meeting. I’m heading to the office. Call me if you need anything,” Jason said, as, if there had been no friction or three years of separation between them. 

Estrella hummed noncommittally and stretched her way to the bathroom. Looking at herself in the mirror, she remembered the scene from the night before, when Jason aske if they could start over, and she felt it was all so unrealistic. 

Jason must have gone mad.
