Chapter 95 Estrella was at a loss for words, thinking he had fallen asleep. She stayed silent, ignoring Jason, but he nestled his chin on her shoulder, his hand sneaking under her shirt.
Estrella’s skin was smooth and supple, irresistibly touchable. As Jason teased her, cupping her breasts, Estrella lost her patience and threw his hand aside, “Jason, don’t push your luck.” But Jason rolled over, trapping her in his arms, “Which married woman hasn't had a taste. of man, huh? Aren't we all experienced here?” Estrella couldn't help but laugh, “How do you know | haven't?” “You're all talk.” Estrella was stunning, with a smile that captivated souls and etched a permanent memory in anyone who saw it.
Jason had been doing ssoul-searching. Regardless of their complicated relationship, they were still man and wife in the eyes of the world. With so many eyes on her, it seemed foolish to keep his distance.
He peeled away her clothes, leaning in to kiss her. Estrella pushed him, “Aren’t you with a stomachache? Enough messing around let's sleep.” the one If Jason had made his move sooner, she would have been receptive. But now, her heart just wasn't in it.
Jason pinned Estrella’s hands with one arm, skillfully tugging at her clothes with the other, “Don’t worry, | can satisfy you, discomfort or not.” As his long, strong hand reached her lower abdomen, Estrella’s eyes narrowed involuntarily. Seizing the moment, Jason used the nightgown to bind her hands. Estrella warned, “Think it through, Jason. If this goes down, you're stuck withfor life.” a Jason kissed her lips softly, “Why would | want to get rid of you?” Whispering in her ear, he added, “With all your energy, I'd rather not let you loose to cause havoc elsewhere.” “Untie my hands.” “No can do. You're too handsy.” The last tthey hadn't finished, she had given him a head wound to remember.

Just as things were heating up, Estrella snapped back to reality and kicked Jason away, “You give multi-million-dollar necklaces to other woman, dump your discomfort on me, and ctowhen you want saction. Why do you always give the best to others and leavethe short end of the stick?” 1/3 11-34 Chapter 95 “Get off me. Go find someone else.” She had thought about turning a blind eye, perhaps having a child would be enough, but she couldn't convince herself, nor forget Jason's cold gaze yesterday, or how he had reminisced about Holly right in front of her at Silverbrook.
Jason had always shown her his coldest side. His current interest was merely sparked by her recent indifference.
It was a conquest gfor him. She had lost any desire to bear a child, especially his.
Estrella’s kick landed squarely on Jason's stomach. After Estrella pulled her legs back, Jason clutched his stomach and gritted his teeth, saying. “Estrella, that was a low blow.” Estrella stood up, donning her nightgown with a cool composure, “Did that cool you off? If not, the door’s to the left.” The door to the left led to Serene’s room.
Estrella wasn’t shaken by the necklace or desperate for Jason to cut ties. He was free to do as he pleased, but she had every right to reject a man whose heart wasn’t with her.
bor for solace or He could seek his pleasures elsewhere, but he shouldn't cto comfort. Whoever received his love and affection should also be there in his times distress. She refused to be a harbor for someone who didn’t hold her in his heart.
As for their marriage, Estrella’s faith in it dwindled by the day.
Watching Estrella dress, Jason ceased his howling, “Still angry? Jealous?” of Estrella poured herself a glass of water, taking a sip, “Not angry or jealous. Just finding it all rather pointless.” She no longer desired to be with him or to entertain thoughts of motherhood.
Her indifference hit Jason hard. Grayson had said that patience and affection could be worn away, little by little.
The night was still dark and quiet.
As Estrella approached, Jason grabbed her hand, “When will you get over this?” She didn’t answer, just glanced at the antacid on the table, “Drew’s got a full medicine cabinet, so help yourself if you're feeling off.” Before she could finish, Jason pulled her back, seating her on his lap. As he kissed her again, Estrella protested, “Jason, let's just stop” All his movements froze, and he swallowed hard, a wave of anger washing over him. His halted kiss prompted Estrella to gently move away. She used to need no prompting from Jason to be affectionate. But since that business trip, she stopped caring for such intimacy, even when Jason was around daily.
Estrella’s honesty left Jason wanting to rage, but he knew that any further argument would only push her further away, which was not the outche desired. So he 2/3 forcefully suppressed his anger.

Estrella glanced at Jason's silhouette, yawned, “I'm tired. I'll head to bed.” Without another look at Jason, she slipped under the covers to rest.
At the window, Jason didn’t turn around, not until the room was still and silent. Then he slowly faced Estrella.
She was asleep, peaceful and unburdened. Jason stood there, his gaze fixed on Estrella for what felt like an eternity before he slowly made his way towards her.
He hovered over her, taking a long, thoughtful look before bending down. Gently, he reached out and brushed her forehead with the back of his hand. “Estrella, you can’t go back to how it was before as well?” he whispered.
On the bed, Estrella wasn't asleep. His words reached her, and her heart couldn't help but flutter in response.
