Chapter 109
No sooner had Jason peered inside than he found himself, well… thoroughly entangled with Estrella once again.
The man had a way with words and touch that Estrella found irresistible. So, it didn’t take long before they were wrapped up in each other, shamelessly tumbling in the sheets.
In Jason’s own terms, ever since he figured out the delights of sex, he had been ‘stockpiling ammo’ for Estrella. Now that he finally had the chance to deploy it, there was no way he was letting her off easy with just some shut-eye.
“You act like you’ve never seen a woman before,” Estrella protested after two more rounds of unspeakable pleasures.
She decided to retract her earlier invitation for him to spend the night. It was off the table now. But Jason, relentless as ever, gave her a few more powerful thrusts, filling her
completely and lingering inside, reluctant to part.
“Come on, it’s over. Get off me,” Estrella huffed.
With a slight movement that sent a shiver through her, Jason cheekily whispered in her ear, “Did you enjoy it?”
Estrella, her face flushed, could barely handle the embarrassment. She glanced at him, trying to stay indifferent, “It was okay.”
Jason chuckled, “That response tells me I haven’t quite hit the mark.”
“Fine, fine, fine, Mr. Jason, you’re the greatest, just let me be.”
Her flattery made Jason laugh, and he played with her a bit more before finally retreating This time, he didn’t reach for a cigarette. Instead, he propped his head with his hand and lay on his side, watching Estrella with an entranced gaze. Her rosy complexion was exceptionally alluring in his eyes.
Feeling his stare, Estrella opened her eyes and met his gaze with a look of disdain. “Haven’t you seen a pretty girl before?”
“I’ve never seen one as beautiful as you,” Jason replied, his hand gently tracing the contour of her back and neck.
“That kid of ours better take after me,” Estrella mentioned. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“As long as they’re mine, it doesn’t matter,” Jason said, which earned him a glare from Estrella. She couldn’t believe how little trust he had in her, as if she would ever be unfaithful.
Besides, between the two of them, it was still up for debate who needed to keep an eye on whom.

Half-awake, Estrella remembered something, “We need to talk to your mother. Let’s not
get ahead of ourselves about the baby talk.” Just yesterday, after their first night together, Kristin had already bought a mountain of baby gear. The pressure Estrella felt was
immense.
Jason pulled her into his arms, “Okay, I’ll talk to Mom.” He too was taken aback by the nursery takeover when he got home. If he hadn’t been so certain of Estrella’s feelings, he might have started to question her fidelity.
With Jason’s assurance, Estrella closed her eyes and drifted off to a peaceful sleep. He held her close, his thumb lightly caressing her eyebrows and lashes, feeling unusually content and satisfied.
The next morning, when Jason woke up, Estrella was already gone, but she had left two dollars on the nightstand-a tip from last night
Pocketing the money, Jason got up and dressed.
“Mr. Jason, Ms. Estrella said she had to handle something at the office. She left early,” the maid informed him.
“Hmm,” Jason hummed contentedly, though his mood dampered slightly at the sight of the premature baby gear in the living room. He and Estrella were still young. There was no rush to start a family.
Recalling how Korey had brazenly shown interest in Estrella right in front of his mother, suggesting he wanted a wife like her, Jason felt a twinge of annoyance. So when Jason saw the car representing Korey’s status outside, he didn’t hesitate. Jason quickly got in his car with one step on the brake.
In Korey’s car, after a sudden jolt from the collision, Blake turned to Korey and asked, “M Korey, you alright?”
Straightening his clothes, Korey replied calmly, “I’m fine. Let’s see what happened.”
Blake got out of the car and saw the black Maybach behind them. Then Blake headed straight towards it. “Sir, did you rear-end us?”
Inside the Maybach, Jason lowered his window leisurely, looking at Blake with a detached air, “You’re not qualified to talk to me. Get Korey.”
Upon recognizing Jason, Blake’s expression darkened. What a way to start the day, running into this devil-and rear-ended by him, no less. It was clearly intentional.
Korey, noticing Blake’s change in demeanor, checked the Maybach’s license plate in the rearview mirror. Recognizing Jason’s car, he stepped out without hesitation. As both men exited their vehicles, tension crackled in the air
Meeting between their cars, Jason, hands in his pockets, coolly glanced at Korey’s damaged car, “Your car’s got no eyes. It was in my way.”

Korey, attempting to smooth things over with a chuckle, said, “Jason, we’re all adults here. No need for childish games.” By now, he knew that his dinner with Estrella had been blown out of proportion by Kristin. Still, he hadn’t expected Jason to react so fiercely as
to resort to a car crash.
Taking a few nonchalant steps forward, Jason said, “Adults only crash cars.”
Korey’s expression darkened, deciphering Jason’s implication: if he weren’t acting like an adult, he might have taken it out on Korey directly. As it stood, with Korey having been in the car, Jason had effectively hit both man and machine.
Jason hadn’t changed-still domineering and unreasonable. Anything he set his sights on was off-limits to others, but if he claimed ownership, he should cherish it.
After a moment’s observation, Korey offered a conciliatory smile, “Jason, we grew up together, and we’re all friends here. No one is anyone’s property. And if you have something, you should appreciate it. Otherwise, who knows who it’ll belong to in the end.” Korey’s reminder was met with a chuckle from Jason, “No need to fuss about my life, Korey.” Leaning in slightly, Jason’s voice dropped to a whisper, “Korey, just as you’ve climbed this high, I can just as easily bring you down. Let’s just mind our own boundaries.”
Korey’s smile grew at Jason’s veiled threat, “I’m glad and relieved that you take Estrella so seriously.”
Jason pulled his right hand out of his pocket and straightened Korey’s jacket before stepping back to where he had been standing.
Blake, observing the scene, glanced at the car and began, “Mr. Korey, so now what do
we…”
Before Blake could finish, Korey interjected, “Get Jeffery to drive the car away. Let’s not make a scene.” Korey had a special status, and if news of him being involved in a rear-end collision spread, it would surely stir up trouble and lead to rumors. So, keeping everything low-key was the best approach.
Seeing this, Jason quipped with a smile, “I’ll have a new ride sent over for you afternoon.”
Blake sighed. Jason was too bold for his own good.
