My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 289

Pacing around the office while waiting for Sam, Bella finally called her mother’s cell phone for the first time in years.

However, her face turned stiff when the call didn’t connect.

Bella’s steps halted as her eyes stared at her phone, confused.

"Did Mom change her cell phone number?" she mumbled, trying to call again.

The result was the same. Bella could only hear the automated voice from the other end.

"The number you are calling is not active!"

Sighing deeply, Bella tried to dismiss her worries that her father had found her mother and would torture her again.

"No... Mom must have turned off her cell phone to avoid Father finding her, right? She will be fine! I hope she is in a safe place now..." she tried to convince herself.

Before long,

Bella finally heard a knock on the door and saw Sam appear behind it.

Too worried about her mother’s condition, she no longer had time to ask him to sit but immediately told him what was happening in East City.

Sam was surprised to hear that. "Boss, do you need my help?" he sincerely offered.

Bella nodded.

"Yes, I do need your help, Sam. How many of our people are in East City and ready to be mobilized right now?"

She knew they had some members of the Sentinel Network there to observe the Donovan Group, but she didn’t know the exact number.

"We have ten people on standby. Do you want me to send some people from other cities there?"

"Yes, that would be excellent... if you still have a few available near East City." She took a deep sigh before continuing her words. "Well, something will happen there when I take over the Donovan Group in a few days. And because my mother is also missing, I will probably fly there today..."

After some thought, Bella decided to fly to the East City as soon as possible to look for her mother because she could imagine that this matter might be more complex than it seems.

Moreover, this was the first time her mother had ever run away from home. That means whatever she has been going through, she could no longer tolerate her father’s evilness.

"OK, Boss! I will carry out your instructions now," Sam said. When he was about to leave, Bella stopped him.

"Can you fly there now, Sam?" Bella asked.

Sam immediately nodded.

"Sure, Boss. I will..."

….

After Sam left her office, Bella finally sat in her CEO’s chair.

She tried to dismiss her thoughts about calling her mother again. It was useless to call because she was sure her mother deliberately turned off her cell phone to avoid her evil father.

However, Bella couldn’t stop worrying about her mother’s safety.

She tried to remember the places her mother usually visited in the past or the houses of her friends where she might be hiding.

After a few minutes of thinking, Bella failed to guess because she knew little about her mother. Suddenly, Bella felt terrible when she realized she wasn’t close to her.
