30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband (Estrella and Jason) novel Chapter 229

Chapter 229 

Estrella shot Jason a look of disdain as she noticed his influence over Isaac. It had only been a short while, and Jason had already won Isaac over. Isaac was now keeping secrets from her, avoiding telling the truth. 

Skeptically, she sized Jason up from head to toe as he rose languidly from the couch. “I should’ve known you’re not just good at charming women, but you can also sweet-talk kids,” she remarked. 

Isaac was her flesh and blood; no one knew her son better than she did. Sweet as Isaac was, he was not one to easily let people into his heart. Yet, Jason had managed to sway him so effortlessly. 

Jason bristled at Estrella’s words, shooting her a frosty glance. “If I were that persuasive, would you still be hell-bent on divorcing me?” 

After a moment of silence, Estrella waved off the verbal sparring. “Cut the chitchat, Jason. Don’t you have to head to the office? You go on.” 

Jason, with his hands buried in his pockets, gazed casually at Estrella. Some things never changed. 

He stared blankly at her for a while before his gaze shifted to Isaac. The more Jason watched Isaac, the more he saw Isaac as a two-year-old toddler, especially after their recent interaction. He found Isaac to be brighter than most kids his age, recognizing many words and reading simple messages on his own. 

Estrella tensed up as Jason fixed his serious gaze on Isaac, a protective instinct kicking in. She crossed her arms and chuckled, “Are you doubting Isaac’s identity? Thinking that he’s your son?” 

Before Jason could respond, Estrella plucked two strands of Isaac’s hair and handed them to him. “If you don’t believe me, go test these yourself.” 

Isaac yelped in pain as his hair was plucked, covering his head with his hands. 

Jason looked at Estrella as if she were a fool, making no move to take the strands of hair 

from her. 

As Isaac continued to cry out, Estrella’s attention was diverted, and the hairs were whisked away by a gust of wind. Seeing this, Estrella sighed. “Honey, the hair blew away. Let me pluck two more for uncle.” 

Isaac, however, retreated several steps, hands still shielding his head, adamantly refusing to let Estrella pluck any more. 

The commotion between mother and child prompted Jason to speak. “Estrella, cut it out. Besides, would a hospital test even matter?” He remembered taking her to the hospital

years ago where they failed to detect her pregnancy. A DNA test now seemed just as pointless. 

Jason’s words left Estrella speechless. Looking down at Isaac, she saw her son shaking his head, signaling “No more, mommy.” 

Isaac’s fear of pain tugged at Estrella’s heartstrings, and she gently pinched his cheek. “Sweetie, mommy didn’t mean to hurt you. I just wanted to see if this mister could be your daddy.” 

Upon hearing Estrella’s words, Isaac firmly stated, “He is.” 

Estrella glanced up at Jason with a look that blamed him for enchanting her son. 

Jason felt his heart warm at Isaac’s affirmation. He reached into his pocket, ruffled Isaac’s hair affectionately, and then turned back to Estrella. “Estrella, I don’t need any tests. And frankly, it doesn’t matter anymore.” The child was already born and brought home. Even if Isaac wasn’t his, Jason had accepted him. 

Estrella didn’t reply, simply urging, “It’s getting late. You should go to work.” 

Glancing at his watch, Jason said goodbye to Isaac and left. 

Once he was gone, Estrella, limping slightly, sat on the couch and asked Isaac, “What were you and that mister laughing about earlier?” 

Isaac was always cheerful but he seldom laughed as freely as he had been. He gave a secretive smile. “Mommy.” 

Estrella understood he had been talking about her with Jason but didn’t grasp that Jason had shown Isaac photos and videos of her own childhood, which had delighted the child 

so much. 

No matter how good others were to him, Isaac’s favorite was always his mother, and he was happiest when he resembled her. 

Estrella pinched his chin, a bit saddened. “Do you really want a daddy that badly?” 

Isaac nodded earnestly, his eyes brimming with hope. 

Estrella’s brow furrowed in thought, then she murmured, “I’ll figure something out.” For the first time in her tough life, Estrella felt at a loss without a solution. 

Isaac looked at her seriously and said, “He is daddy.” 

Estrella shook her head in disapproval. “That won’t do. Mommy doesn’t like that man anymore.” 

Isaac insisted, “Like him.” 

Estrella ruffled Isaac’s hair. “What do you know, kiddo? Anyway, I’ll find you the best daddy in the whole world.”
