My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 24

Bella took Dax’s hand and let him sit beside her, staring into his blue eyes.

"Why do you think Uncle Sean is your father?" Bella asked.

Dax frowned. His eyes were slightly trembling as he stared back at his mother.

"Because Uncle Sean knows about great-grandpa. Uncle is also nice to me, and I feel comfortable around him…" he said calmly, but Bella could see his sadness flash through his gaze.

For some unknown reason, Bella felt hurt inside when she witnessed this.

This had been her concern since giving birth to Dax — explained to him about his biological father. Until today, she never had a chance to do that because she was too worried about how to tell him and he also never asked. .

But just now, Bella was utterly shocked to hear Dax suddenly ask about it. Of course, Dax’s sudden question was enough to make all the words she wanted to tell him vanish from her mind.

Sigh!

Looking at his eyes still fixed on her, as if waiting for her to answer, gave Bella a little courage to talk about this matter.

"I’m sorry, Dax, but Uncle Sean is not your father," she said apologetically.

Dax’s face slowly turned gloomy as he heard the words he didn’t want to hear — Sean was not his father. He feels disappointed even though he already knows the answer.

Bella clenched her hands into fists when she saw the disappointment radiating from Dax’s eyes.

Slowly, she could feel her heartfelt hurt as if the wound in her heart was starting to tear again. She tried hard to hide it; she didn’t want to make Dax worry.

She immediately stood up. "Baby, let’s go. We made Uncle Sean wait for too long."

Dax’s face turned panicked when he remembered about Sean. He nodded and followed Bella.

"Let’s go, Mommy..." His smile framed his face as he walked toward the door, holding Bella’s hand.

Bella saw Sean standing near the window with his back facing them. Before she could call him, Sean turned back.

"Are you guys ready?" He said as he walked to them.

"Sorry to make you wait. Hmm, yes... we can go now."

"It’s okay," Sean chuckled at Bella before gazing at Dax. "Little man, you look handsome. Come, let Uncle carry you…"

Bella sighed slightly when she saw her son didn’t refuse Sean to carry him. Instead, he looked so happy in Sean’s arms.

"Sean, he can walk by himself. There’s no need to carry him," Bella said, narrowing her eyes at Dax.

She feels amazed at Dax. This little man would only allow a few people to carry him, one of them being Sean. Even Jack and Harper never got to hold him.

"It’s fine…" Sean said while walking to the entrance.

Bella could only shake her head as she looked at them out of the room. She talked to Noora first before she followed Sean and Dax, who were waiting for her in the elevator.

...

Upon reaching the lobby, Sean requested Bella to wait for him while he talked to the hotel manager.

Bella had no choice but to wait for them near the entrance. She took her time contacting his grandpa’s butler.

She texts Nick.

[Bella: ] Nick, I’m in East City. Can I visit Grandpa now?

[Bella: ] I will arrive at the hospital in about thirty minutes.
