My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 458

After lunch, Bella didn’t nap; she continued working in her office while peeking out the window to check whether her mother and Henry had arrived from the hospital. However, they only arrived at three in the afternoon.

Bella visited them with Dax.

Somehow, she felt tense holding her son’s hand as they walked toward the Stone House.

"Mommy, why do you look nervous? Shouldn’t I be the one who is nervous, right? This is the first time I met my uncle," said Dax.

Dax’s words caused Bella to halt her steps. She smiled at him, though her smile still looked slightly stiff.

"I don’t know. I’m just worried your uncle will... uhm, you know..." Bella couldn’t finish her words because she didn’t know how to express her concerns.

"Mom, are you worried I will follow his lifestyle and become a bad person when I grow up?" Dax innocently asked.

Bella silently swallowed. For the second time, she was surprised to hear his mature words.

"How do you know your uncle is... a bad person?" Bella asked. She remembered never outright saying that. Usually, she just told him that her relationship with her family was not going well.

"I heard from Aunty Noora. She said that Uncle Henry used to annoy you. He used to upset you with his bad behaviors. Is that true, Mom?" asked Dax, his voice slightly angry.

Bella, "...."

"Mom, you don’t need to worry about that. I’m a big and smart boy. I know what bad things I shouldn’t follow and what good things I should," he said, smiling, trying to convince Bella.

’Oh my God, why doesn’t he speak like a child his age?’ Bella wondered while holding back her laughter. She felt amused to see her adorable son acting like an adult.

"Okay, baby. I know I can trust you." Bella gently ruffled his hair before they finally continued walking toward her mother’s house.

Upon arriving at the house, Bella spontaneously took Dax’s hand as they entered the living room.

...

Bella spotted her mother chatting with Henry in the living room. At the same time, Noora seemed occupied in the kitchen, cooking something that made Bella instantly hungry. She felt her twins awake and asked her to feed them.

"Hi, Granny," Bella said, allowing Dax to join Natalie in the seating area. She then headed to the kitchen to see what Aunty Noora was preparing.

"Oh, Bella and baby Dax, come over," Natalie said with a wide smile as she looked at her adorable grandson approaching her. "Come here, sit over here," she patted the seat beside her.

"Hello, Granny," Dax politely greeted her as he sat beside her.

After exchanging smiles with Natalie, Dax turned to the man across from him.

It was the first time Dax had seen him, and he believed he was Henry, his mother’s older brother.

Dax could see the surprise in the man’s eyes. He said nothing, shifted his gaze to his Grandmother, and asked, "Granny, who is this man?"

Noora joined in when she realized Bella and Natalie only wanted to tease Henry.

"Miss, Madam, don’t send him to the hospital. Let me help smack his head." Noora offered.

"No, stop! What are you all doing?" Henry finally talked. He looked at Noora, his mother, and Bella in shock. "I’m fine, alright," he said hurriedly. He didn’t want to go back to the hospital. Having broken bones twice was enough for him.

Bella and the others laughed, looking at how panicky Henry was now.

"Granny, Mom, Aunty Noora..." Dax, confused, called out to them. His eyes blinked a few times, looking at them in turn before he continued. "You’re kidding, right?"

Bella and the others were stunned. They had forgotten that Dax was there.

"Hahaha, young master," Noora immediately filled a small bowl with salad. Before handing it to Dax, she said, "Of course, we’re just kidding. We’re just trying to entertain your Uncle Henry. So, we need to make him laugh." She looks at Henry and gestures for him to laugh.

Henry, "...."

Dax frowned.

"Alright, young master, try this. It’s the most delicious fruit salad I’ve ever made. You will like it," Noora said before turning to Natalie and Henry. She offered them a bowl, too. "Madam, Henry, hurry, eat this... or someone might finish the salad..."

Bella stopped her hand before adding more salad to her empty bowl, feeling betrayed. She narrowed her eyes at Noora as if protesting. Gosh!
