My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 79

’Seriously, has Tristan lived here for a long time?’ Bella muttered in her heart while looking around. ’Why does this house look new?’

She put aside her curiosity as she continued walking to follow Geoffrey.

However, she didn’t see Tristan when they arrived at the living room. And Geoffrey also kept walking, passing the room.

Before Bella could ask, Geoffrey walked toward the stairs leading to the second floor.

Suddenly, Bella’s steps stopped.

’Why did Geoffrey lead me to the second floor?’ Bella wondered. She knew the second floor was usually a private area for the homeowner.

’Did Tristan want to talk to me in his bedroom? Has he gone insane!?’ She hesitated to follow Geoffrey.

She just stared at him, who was already halfway up the stairs. Her hands clenched into tight fists, regretting following Tristan to this place.

"Young Madam!?"

Bella turned to Geoffrey and saw him smile at her. She tried to say something but hesitated.

Geoffrey could see worry flash through Bella’s eyes. He said in his calm tone, "Master Tristan is waiting for you in his study. He prefers to talk to you in a private place..."

She silently swallowed while dismissing her negative thoughts and started to climb the stairs. At the same time, she tried to adjust her expression so as not to show her nervousness.

Soon, they both stood before the massive wooden door. Geoffrey opened the door for her.

After Bella entered the room, Geoffrey left to let them chat.

...

Bella noted the room looked austere, with only a few pieces of furniture typical of a home office.

She spotted Tristan already seated on the black leather sofa facing her.

He smiles warmly at her before saying, "Come, join me—"

Approaching him, Bella settled opposite him on a single sofa.

As worry flashed through his eyes, she couldn’t resist asking, "Why do you look worried when I’m the one who is supposed to be showing that emotion?"

Tristan was stunned by her words. Instantly, a faint smile graced his handsome, calm face.

He didn’t rush to respond but instead admired her beauty with his gaze.

They had never been this close or engaged in such an intense conversation during their marriage, a fact that filled him with regret.

He only saw her when he needed to fulfill his role as a man who wanted his wife to get pregnant.

Why hadn’t he appreciated her beauty before?

Why had he not returned her love?

So many ’WHYs’ plagued his mind since she left. And he was too foolish to realize it all when she was gone.

’Sigh!’

Tristan silently took a deep breath, trying to push aside his past self. He hates his past self and longs for the opportunity to go back and make things right from the start.

But all that is not possible.
