My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 29

It was the first time Lucas had witnessed this side of his daughter, leaving him both surprised and uneasy.

"What are you trying to—" Jacob Donovan shouted, but Bella raised her hand to stop him.

Bella was amused to see how red Jacob’s face was.

"Uncle, oops... I forgot!" She lightly slapped her forehead, pretending to forget something.

Jacob frowned.

Everyone now looks at Bella; they are amazed by her sudden change in expression.

"You know what?" Bella asked while flashing her confident smile. "Just now, I made a vow that I no longer have an uncle like you."

"You!!" Jacob’s faces turn red.

"Oh, please, Sir, DO NOT interrupt me..." Bella shook her head before continuing, "You are the company’s CEO, but why do you let the fate of such a big company depend on a little girl like me?"

Bella paused her words, trying to enjoy Jacob Donovan’s angry expression. "Don’t you have any shame, sir?" she continued. She felt happy to return his words.

When Bella saw her uncle open his mouth to say something, she spoke again, "If you can’t run a company, you may step down from your CEO position and hire a professional to run it. Why force yourself to do something you know you can’t?"

Jacob’s hands were clenched tightly into fists. He had never been treated like this by a mere child. Even his father had never treated him that way.

Bella appeared calm, but she was cracking up internally. Watching her uncle’s face turn like a boiled crab was so much fun.

"Sir, if you fail, never blame someone else. And I don’t remember having a business with the Donovan Group, right? Or... Do I?" She smiles.

Everyone in the room was shocked beyond words hearing how Bella had given Jacob Donovan her long-buried piece of mind.

"Arabella, stop, or I will get mad at you!" Lucas Donovan can’t stand to see his daughter ridicule his brother. He will get in trouble if Jacob is angry.

Bella turned her gaze at her father. There was no expression on her delicate face, only a calm look around her eyes and brow.

"Oh, Mister Lucas, it looks like you can’t wait to receive my piece of mind, too?" Bella laughed slightly and rubbed her forehead, showing her confidence.

Bella didn’t even flinch when several pairs of eyes stared at her intently — their gaze seemed to swallow her alive.

Henry’s jaw dropped to the floor when he heard Bella call their father using his name.

’What the fuck! Is this girl tired of living? Now she’s asking to be sent straight to her coffin?’ He tries to read Bella’s expression — trying to find out whether there’s a fear in her gaze. But he feels confused when he only sees calmness there.

Bella continued her words when she didn’t get any response from her father, "I sacrificed by marrying into the Sinclair family. You have no right to say that I destroyed the company."
