My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 480

The tension in the living room of the VIP ward felt palpable.

Tristan’s calm expression slowly disappeared, and annoyance emerged from his eyes as if Hellfire were dancing in them. He saw Reid and Bryan sitting opposite him without uttering anything, making them even more nervous.

After a few seconds, Tristan’s eyes finally fixed on Bryan.

"How could you make such a mistake? I have known you for so long, Bryan, and I know you are not someone who would make a mistake with the task I assigned you." This is one of the reasons why Tristan entrusted Bryan to be his wife’s bodyguard; he is one of his trusted people.

Bryan’s hands felt cold as he lowered his gaze, unable to meet Tristan’s eyes. He couldn’t refute his words because he knew he made a huge mistake.

"Tell me a good reason that could help me understand why you did that," Tristan said coldly.

He learned from Bella that Dax supposedly did not enter the restaurant as she had instructed Bryan to keep Dax outside to prevent him from meeting his mother. However, Dax still ran inside, allowing a crazy woman to capture him.

Bryan slowly raised his head to meet Tristan’s gaze and finally explained what had really happened that time.

"Boss, I’m sorry. Really, really sorry. I was distracted by someone following us since we left the office, and without my knowledge, the young master ran away from me."

After taking a deep breath, Bryan continued to explain that he had been guarding them in the car. But suddenly, Dax needed to go to the bathroom, so he walked them inside the restaurant.

However, just as they were about to return to the car, his team called him regarding the suspicious individual following Bella from the office. Suddenly, during the call, Dax spotted his mother in the VIP room area in a split second and ran after her.

Tristan needed a few moments to process Bryan’s explanation. Although he was angry at him for putting his son in danger, he also understood the situation. He knew they had planned to capture whoever followed his wife that day.

He turned his gaze back to Bryan, "Did your team capture the person following my wife?"

"Yes. That person is now at the Brick House," Bryan replied, glancing at Reid. "Have you interrogated them?" He was also curious about their identity.

Reid shook his head. He had to rush to the restaurant before he could conduct the interrogation. However, the two men at their base camp were not going anywhere. He would return there and gather clues about who was behind them and why they were interested in their young madam.

Bryan looked back at Tristan, still feeling guilty because Bella had been injured because of him.

"Boss, I know I failed to protect your wife. Whatever the reason I gave you, I’m still guilty, and I made her badly hurt," Bryan’s voice sounded stoic, "I am ready to accept whatever punishment you give me, sir."

"You’d better do that, Bryan, because this is your only chance," Tristan’s voice came across as an order. Then, he shifted his gaze to Reid and asked, "Did you gather all the information about the woman?"

"Yes, boss," Reid immediately reported what he had learned from Max’s report. "Her name is Kelly Davis, and she is Andreas Corby’s secretary."

"Andreas Corby?" Tristan repeated. He had heard of that person but seemed to have forgotten. Maybe he wasn’t an important person, which is why he paid less attention to him.

"Yes, he is the former CEO of Quantum Capital, the one Young Madam fired."

Tristan now recalled that person. Slowly, his expression grew even darker.

"When Kelly was still Andreas’ secretary, she was also his romantic partner. After Andreas was fired and returned to his country, Kelly was also dismissed because of her involvement in Andreas’ fraudulent activities. A few months ago, there was a record of her miscarriage."

Reid continued explaining that Kelly did not know Bella’s identity because not all Quantum Capital employees knew her. She only found out Bella’s identity after reading the news on the internet. Having learned about it, Kelly waited for Bella to appear at the office and followed her to a restaurant, intending to take revenge.

Tristan clenched his fists when he heard this information. Not long afterward, he immediately asked Reid to pursue legal action against Kelly and ensure she would be imprisoned for a long time.
