30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband (Estrella and Jason) novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221 

Estrella watched with a smile as Isaac affectionately called Bryce “Dad” across the table. Her heart felt a touch of solace. Bryce’s care had indeed given Isaac the fatherly love he 

deserved. 

At her side, Jesse turned to Estrella and said, “Bryce has truly earned the title ‘Dad’ with the attention he’s given Isaac.” 

“Yeah, Bryce has been a blessing these past few years,” Estrella agreed. 

“If Jason had been half the man Bryce is, things might not have come to this point between you two,” Jesse remarked. 

Estrella chuckled lightly. “The past is the past. I hardly remember it now.” The greatest punishment for someone or something isn’t criticism. It’s being forgotten. 

Jesse was impressed at Estrella’s casual dismissal. “You really know how to let things go.” 

Estrella patted her friend’s back. “People have to look forward. If Bryce and I can do it, so 

can you. 

Estrella knew the façade Jesse maintained had hidden deep psychological scars from an event over a decade past, shadows that still lingered. 

“I’m learning from you,” Jesse said with a smile. 

Estrella’s own smile brightened when her gaze returned to the two friends at the table. 

Since her divorce from Jason, Estrella had felt lighter in spirit, thriving in her work more than ever. That afternoon, fresh from court and back at her law firm, a call came through from Serene, inviting Estrella for a lunchtime rendezvous. Estrella agreed, grateful for Serene’s help in smoothing the way to a successful divorce. 

In the cozy booth of a garden café, they sat opposite each other. Serene poured water with a smile, “I’m not sure if ‘congratulations’ is the right word.” 

Before Estrella could respond, Serene set the teapot aside and said gently, “I thought you might deny it, clinging to the years you’ve had with Jason. But it seems I’ve underestimated you. You’re more free-spirited than I imagined.” 

Serene knew she couldn’t do the same. She would likely have used the opportunity to try and mend the broken relationship. 

Perhaps it was because Serene lacked the confidence to leave that she had never been looked upon highly by others. 

Estrella picked at her light lunch with fork. “Life’s about more than just romance. Even if love is important, there’s no need to hang onto a failing branch.”

It was advice for Serene as much as a reminder to herself. After so many years, Serene still lingered by Jason’s side. It was exhausting just to watch. 

“I wish I could let go as easily as you,” Serene said with a rueful smile, then asked, “Estrella, do you think you’ll ever regret it?” 

Estrella laughed, “I have my career and my son. There’s nothing to regret. Besides, if there’s one thing this world has plenty of, it’s men.” 

There’s always another one around the corner. 

Seeing Estrella’s indifference towards Jason, Serene added, “Jason must be kicking himself now. I used to think Jason had a strained relationship with you because he couldn’t let go of Holly. Now it seems that’s not the case.” 

If Jason had truly cared about Holly, he would have divorced Estrella long ago, making Holly his bride. But he hadn’t. 

Estrella looked up at Serene, “What others think doesn’t matter. What’s important is what you want.”
