My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 137

Bella was shocked when she saw Tristan’s face darken.

’Huh!? Why is he mad? Did I say something wrong?’ She wonders.

Nevertheless, she put aside her curiosity and continued her sentence.

"…Jack convinced me to handle Quantum Capital in this country. And you know what, Tristan? One of the reasons I came back to this country was because of him."

Bella sighed deeply while shaking her head, remembering how persistent Jack convinced her to return to the company.

"He was too noisy to force me to take care of Quantum Capital. I had no choice but to accept his offer, and he paid me well. So yeah…" She feels amused to remember those days when Jack visited them every month in Sweden.

She told him everything about it but didn’t open up about her share ownership in RDF Group.

Tristan felt relieved that Bella’s relationship with Jack was purely professional and friendship. Well, at least he doesn’t have to compete with another big shoot.

"I think I should thank your boss. If it weren’t for him, who convinced you to come back, maybe I wouldn’t have known about Dax and been able to meet you again, Bella..." He said sincerely.

Bella was at a loss for words when she noticed the gloominess on his face.

She regretted mentioning the topic, fearing he would ask her again to return to him — a conversation she always avoided whenever they were alone.

…

They arrive at a luxury private restaurant in the middle of the city, surrounded by a semi-forest garden.

This was Bella’s first time visiting this place, and its beauty enchanted her.

As their car pulled into the restaurant’s front yard, Bella felt like she had left the city and entered the countryside. The atmosphere was peaceful and serene.

She spotted the restaurant’s name, Forbidden Garden Private Restaurant, written in gold on the wall.

’What an interesting name...’ She mumbles.

While Bella was busy looking out of the car, immersed in the scenery, Tristan couldn’t help but silently smile as he stopped the car in front of the main entrance lobby.

’Do they know this is one of my restaurants?’ he wondered while looking at the other car in front.

Tristan put aside his curiosity as he dashed out and opened the car door for her.

"Thanks," Bella stepped out and joined Jack and Leo walk to the restaurant.

While Tristan he closely walks behind them and listens to their conversation in silence.

"Bella, you should thank me..." Leo glances at Bella while they enter the restaurant. "It’s hard to get a table in this restaurant. I booked a table here a week ago to come with you. And I’m so lucky they called me today. They said I could come today because someone canceled their book."

"Wow! Really?"

"Yes."
