My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 443

Bella and Tristan didn’t immediately visit her mother’s VIP ward. They detoured to Henry’s room after Carlos informed them he was already awake and could talk.

As they paused outside Henry’s wardroom, Bella looked up at Tristan and asked, "Would you mind accompanying me inside?"

She finally decides to tell Henry about Tristan and who he is to her. Her older brother needed something to jolt him out of his delusional and ignorant state, and hiding Tristan from him wouldn’t help cure his delusion.

"Of course, dear. I also want to meet my brother-in-law," a faint smile crossed his face as a vengeful plan to confront Henry filled his mind.

"Guys, if you don’t mind, I won’t enter the room with you," Carlos said before Tristan opened the door. "And one more thing. I beg you, please don’t break any of his bones again, if you know what I mean," he said thoughtfully with a smile, looking at Bella as if deliberately warning her.

Bella was silent, maintained calm, and composed gestures as if she knew nothing about what Carlos implied.

’Did Carlos know that I was the one who beat Henry and not Tristan? Why is he smiling and looking at me as if he knows I did it? Gosh!’ Bella thought, lowering her gaze while gesturing for Tristan to open the door immediately.

Tristan said nothing but opened the door and let Bella enter the room first. He closed the door after asking Carlos and Dylan to wait for them in the lounge.

Bella stood a few meters from Henry’s hospital bed, enjoying the sight of Henry staring at Tristan with wide eyes and gasping. He appeared shocked and completely ignored her as if his eyes were glued to Tristan.

While smiling, Bella turned her gaze to Tristan and was speechless at what she saw. She could see her husband trying to intimidate her brother through his sharp gaze.

She leaned closer and whispered, "Hubby, please, don’t scare my brother. He might faint again, and I’m losing time to speak properly to him."

Tristan grinned, "Sure, dear... as you wish! But let me know if you change your mind."

"Could you wait for me on the sofa? I will talk to him alone," she said, pointing to the seating area in the corner. She knew that if Tristan stayed beside her, Henry might not say a word, too frightened by his presence.

Tristan smiled and nodded.

After Tristan settled on the sofa, Bella approached Henry. She noticed that although he was paying attention to her, his eyes could not hide his flash of fear, as if he saw her as a threat to his life.

This is what she anticipated. She had attacked his brother not only physically but also mentally. So now, his chronic arrogance has gone as quickly as possible. And Bella didn’t feel guilty about what she had done to him. She didn’t have much time to deal with his nonsense.

"Little sister, you and Tris—" Henry was too afraid to say Tristan’s name, worried the powerful man would immediately beat him. He swallowed hard to moisten his dry throat.

Looking at Bella, standing by his bedside with an unreadable expression, Henry continued, "Why are you and him coming together? Are you still—" Once again, he lost his words, frustrating him immensely.

"Second, Mother divorced Father. They officially divorced after Father signed the papers before he vanished—"

"What? You’re kidding, right, Bella?" Henry couldn’t hold back from asking.

Bella gently shook her head and chuckled softly at Henry’s question. "You overthink yourself, Henry Donovan. I don’t have time to entertain you right now. What I told you is true. You already met our Mom, right?" she asked.

Henry nodded, still in shock after learning that their parents had divorced and their mother had filed for divorce. This was entirely unexpected for him.

"You know what, Henry? Our mother’s life was so miserable. She was married to an obscene husband, and she had a rude, ungrateful, arrogant son. Her son only cares about himself, never about his mother’s condition or feelings," Bella said with a deep sigh before adding, "Let me ask you two questions."

"What is it?" Henry asked, trembling. Bella’s words hurt him deeply, but strangely, he couldn’t argue because what she said was true.

"Did you ever know that Mom has cancer? Have you ever wondered why she ran away from our father?"

Henry was utterly clueless. "Mom has cancer?" he recalled, not noticing any signs when she visited him this morning.
