My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 272

At Quantum Capital Building

Bella had a long, tiring meeting with the legal team, during which they discussed the legal steps the company would take in cases of defamation and various other cases they take for their other companies.

The meeting started at two in the afternoon and had just finished at four-thirty. She was exhausted as she walked back to her office.

She needed a warm cafe latte to shake off her tiredness.

However, Bella was surprised when she opened the door and saw Stefan curled up on the sofa, with his head covered in his hoodie.

"Huh!? Why is he sleeping here?" Bella stopped right on the door, smiling. Just before she could ask someone, a female secretary approached her hurriedly.

"Ms. Donovan, I’m sorry," the secretary stammered, her voice tinged with anxiety. "I tried to persuade your friend to wait outside, but he insisted on waiting for you in your room despite my warnings that your meeting would stretch for hours."

Bella smiled at her.

"It’s okay. You did the right thing. You may continue your work," she said and entered the room.

She didn’t rush to wake Stefan. Instead, she tidied up her desk—her husband would pick her up in thirty minutes.

Later, she made two cups of coffee before joining Stefan in the sitting area. She woke him up after putting the espresso on the table near him.

Seeing Stefan wake up and rub his still-sleepy face made Bella feel sorry for him. He must be exhausted and struggling to adjust to the time difference between here and New York, his base.

Stefan’s eyes narrowed at Bella, and he quickly grabbed his glasses from the table and put them on.

"Oh, you’re finally back, sister..." He greeted Bella in a hoarse and deep voice. His slight smile framed his face, and he looked happy to see her again.

"Hmm," Bella responded with a small smile, watching Stefan sit up properly to face her.

"You should sleep upstairs, in your own room, Stefan! Why are you waiting for me here?" Bella said faintly, worried about his health. This kid really didn’t care about his well-being.

"I’m fine, sis...I just need to rest my eyes." Stefan grinned as he ruffled his hair, trying to fix some of the strands covering his eyes.

Bella sighed deeply before gesturing for him to drink his coffee.

"Drink your coffee; you need it to wake up. And don’t sleep now...try to adjust to the time here." She worried about his jetlag.

Stefan nodded and sipped the warm coffee before looking at Bella again, "Finally, your boring meeting is over, sis..."

Bella was surprised to hear Stefan’s words spot-on.
