My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Humiliated

"Just state how many you need, Bella. I will give you anything you want as much as you ask."

Hearing Tristan humiliate her with his words, she'd surely cry if she were alone in the room. Bella tries to hold back her tears while calming her emotions.

"Tr-Tristan—" Bella's voice slightly shaking. "I want to hear your reasons. Why did you ask for a divorce?"

Instead of answering her, Tristan asked, "Do you remember why we got married?"

Bella didn't respond. Of course, she remembers. Their marriage was an arrangement between their grandpas.

Old Donovan forced Bella to marry into the Sinclair family. This marriage started because of money and power, with no love between two people involved.

If she can bear a son for Sinclair, they promise to give her family good fortune; their family business will no longer become a mid-core company. Sinclair pledged to help Donovan Group become the top company in the country.

Married for benefit, something Bella hated the most, but she couldn't refuse her grandpa and father at the time. She was powerless; her only option was to accept the arrangement and marry the man she never met before.

However, She was stupid enough to make a big mistake after marrying Tristan Sinclair; she fell deeply in love with him. Now, she regrets it.

"Bella, maybe you already forgot after four years. Let me remind you. Our parents want you to carry on the Sinclair family line. But you haven't gotten pregnant yet." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Tristan continued, "What am I supposed to do now? I can't wait another year. You know that, right? Why you—"

"I understand!" Bella interrupted him. Her heart was truly hurt to hear his reason. She didn't need his words to slice her already wounded heart.

During their four-year marriage, she had tried so many ways to give him a child but was unable to get pregnant until now. She couldn't possibly get pregnant just because she wanted to, as she couldn't force God to let her get pregnant.

Bella felt like she was living in hell during their wedding, stressed about not getting pregnant. She had to endure the humiliation she received from her mother-in-law; she verbally abused her almost every day.

The most painful part was that her parents also despised her because, for four years, she couldn't bear a child and couldn't hold Tristan's heart.

'Well, Bella, at least you are now free from all those painful...' She tries to cheer her broken heart. However, Tristan's following words once again shattered her last bit of patience and calmness.

"Glad to know that. Alright, now sign the papers and stop creating drama, Bella! Ah, you don't have to worry... I will give you alimony, enough for you to spend the money for the rest of your life. You will not suffer after divorcing me." He said casually, but Bella felt like all her blood was rushing to her face.

She feels utterly angry hearing his words.

'Who needs your money? I can make money without you!' Bella vents her frustration.

However, just before she wanted to refuse his money, she heard a voice in her mind.

'Don't refuse his money. Take it!!'

Bella was stunned. She pressed her lips to stop the words she was about to say.

"I will sign," Bella said without hesitation. "But, if someday you regret this decision and want me back, you won't get a chance, Tristan. So—"

"That will never happen!" Tristan ended the call without giving her a chance to say anything.

Beep!

Bella felt her eyes blurry as soon as the phone line abruptly ended. She pushed back her tears while trying to cast a spell on herself.
