My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 75

"Nope, I’m too starving to fool around with them. Let’s end the fun here," Leo chuckled, fixing his gaze on the waiter. "Is the VIP room ready!?"

"Yes, sir, are you—"

"Please lead us to the room," Leo interrupted before the waiter could finish his sentence. He glanced at Bella. "Let’s go, let’s go, I’m starving..."

The waiter was shocked by the sudden change in the man’s expression after hearing Laura Kiels’s name.

"Sir, what about the room? And the free lunch?" he asked, trailing behind them, helpless.

Leo halted his steps, turning to face the waiter. His previously friendly expression slowly turned cold and fierce.

"Tell that generous Lady I’m grateful for her offer. Still, I would rather pay for her lunch than give up the room. Tell her she can eat as much as she wants...GRATIS," Leo gently patted the waiter’s shoulder. Then, he smoothly slipped a generous amount of money on the waiter’s hand before continuing to walk.

Bella followed Leo while lowering her face to prevent Jessica from recognizing her. She felt grateful that she had returned to her before-married weight; unlike the last time she met Jessica, she was still overweight.

’Jessica won’t recognize me, right!? Damn if she does,’ she wondered. But her hopes were dashed when she heard Jessica’s voice shrieked loudly from behind.

"B-Bella... is... is... that you!?"

’Damn it!’ Bella can’t help but curse.

Bella kept walking, deliberately ignoring Jessica. Meanwhile, Leo, walking beside her, glanced at her.

"So, you really know that old lady, huh!?" His eyebrows raised slightly as he waited for her response. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Hmm, I know her. She’s someone from the past... and I don’t want to meet," Bella said without looking at him, not wanting Leo to see her worry.

Bella only wanted to ignore Jessica. Hoping Jessica would give up and leave her alone. However, Bella was wrong; Jessica’s loud voice echoed in the restaurant hall, sounding like a slap to Bella’s head.

"ARABELLA... HOW DARE YOU IGNORE ME!! STOP RIGHT THERE!"

’Truly shameless!! Does she not know the word ’manners’? How dare she shout in this restaurant!?’ Bella couldn’t help but vent her anger inwardly. She felt ashamed to have been part of this woman’s family.

How shameless!

Bella keeps walking.

"ARABELLA DONOVAN, STOP!!" Jessica’s voice sounded close, walking quickly after Bella. "I know it’s you, Bella. Stop right there..." she shouted again.

Jessica’s loud voice was difficult for the people around them to ignore. They all turned their heads, looking in Jessica’s direction.

Bella gritted her teeth, holding back her irritation. She didn’t want to meet and cause drama with this shameless woman, but she insisted.
