My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 214

"That’s why your father needs many bodyguards to protect him. As a business owner, many bad people want to harm him. Isn’t that right, Tristan?" Bella turned her gaze to Tristan.

"Yes, my dear, that’s right." Tristan smiled at her. Satisfied hearing her explanation.

Bella smiled again and focused back on the road ahead. However, not even a minute later, Dax asked another question that almost choked her.

"Mom, why do you still call my dad by his name?"

Bella was stunned to hear that. Hearing his question instantly makes her feel awkward. She feels weird calling Tristan him with my husband, darling, or something similar. This is why she preferred to call Tristan by his name.

After thinking momentarily, Bella pretended she hadn’t heard Dax’s question. However, Tristan added fuel to the fire, causing her to roll her eyes at him.

"My dear wife, you should start calling me Hubby or Honey. I don’t mind which one you prefer. You can choose whatever you like." Tristan grinned at her before turning his gaze back to the road. He avoids her glare.

Bella secretly let out a deep breath, venting her frustration inwardly,

’Oh my, this guy! He can’t miss the opportunity to tease me, huh!’

She turned her gaze outside, trying to ignore them, but once again, her son joined forces with his father.

"Yes, Mom, you should. If someone hears you, I am afraid they might think my father is not your husband."

’Unbelievable! How could this four-and-a-half-year-old child say such words?’

Bella looked back to see Dax. Seeing how adorable his expression was now amused her. But she maintained her curious expression, "Baby, where did you hear such words!?" She narrowed her eyes at him.

Dax paused for a moment as if thinking about something. Then, he gave an ambiguous answer. "Mom, I guess... I heard someone say that."

Bella didn’t need to ask anymore; she simply turned her gaze to Tristan. She knew the person who had told Dax about it—the person who now smiled widely while focusing on the road ahead.

Taking a deep breath, she asked, "Hubby, which restaurant are we going to for lunch?"

Tristan smiled in amusement at her words. "We’ll be there in a few minutes," he said, glancing at her.

She ignored him and looked out the window again.

...

Before long, their car finally arrived at the beachside restaurant. The restaurant looked busy despite being far from the main street.

The parking lot appeared almost full, but Tristan didn’t even look at the packed parking lot. He stopped his car in front of the main entrance. When they exited the car, one of Tristan’s bodyguards suddenly appeared and immediately parked the vehicle.

Even though the restaurant seemed full with every table occupied, a waiter promptly greeted them and escorted them to the VIP room. It appeared Tristan had already reserved their VIP room.

The room was clean, with a modern interior and a large long table in the middle. This was the typical VIP restaurant Bella usually saw. However, what surprised her was the wide glass window, which offered a stunning view of the blue sea stretching as far as the eye could see. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Several couples and families strolled on the white sandy beach despite the sun shining.

Seeing their happy faces, Bella felt a twinge of envy.

Bella wished she could freely walk to the beach without anyone recognizing them. But it seemed she couldn’t take that risk, worried that someone might snap a photo of them if they stayed outside for too long.
