My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 187

Bella gasped in shock. She no longer heard Tristan’s last words because his words, "We are still legally married..." shocked her.

What does it mean? Why did Tristan suddenly admit we were still married!?

"So about your promise to Sean, I will discuss it with him. You don’t need to worry about him. He would understand and support us if he knew about our status—"

"Wait, wait, Tristan! Please stop…" Bella stopped him from speaking further as she needed to clarify something with him. She was worried that she had misheard him.

"Yes, dear…" Tristan’s gentle tone and squeeze of their entangled hands sent a shiver down her spine. She silently swallowed and dared to continue looking into her eyes before expressing her confusion.

"You said earlier… We are still legally married. How is that possible!?"

Bella still couldn’t believe what she was hearing. How could they get married when she had already signed the papers? She clearly remembered his shameless lawyer forcing her to sign.

"Yes, we are still husband and wife... Bella, you are still my wife because I never filed our divorce papers with the court," said Tristan calmly. However, Bella was stunned to hear his words.

Instantly, countless questions danced in her mind, ’Never submit to the court!? Why did he do that? I remember he sent his lawyer to force me to sign the letter. Why? Why...?’

So many questions rang in Bella’s mind, immediately giving her a headache. She narrowed her eyes at Tristan before shouting his name in a cold, icy tone.

"Tristan Sinclair..."

"Yes, dear?"

When Bella got his attention, she didn’t utter anything. Instead, she pulled her hand from him and slapped his shoulder to vent her anger.

How dare he do that? Force her to sign but not submit to the court? Did he try to prank her?

"Are you kidding me, right!? How could you force me to sign that damn paper and never submit it to the court?"

Bella’s eyes burned with anger as she stared at him. However, when she saw his gentle smile slowly bloom from his lips and his handheld hers, she gritted her teeth, trying to maintain her annoyance.

"I’m sorry, Bella... I know apologizing is not acceptable. That’s why you can slap or punch me again. I don’t mind, darling."

Bella was puzzled hearing his words. However, when Tristan led her hand to hit his chest, she gasped in surprise. She was utterly speechless by his random action.

"I deserve your fist, Bella," Tristan said as he continued to let her tiny fist hit his chest.

Bella, "...."
