My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 59

Bella’s hands tightened into fists, holding back her nerves.

"Which floor?" Tristan’s voice broke the silence. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Bella didn’t answer but pressed the number two. He couldn’t help but smile when she ignored him.

"What are you doing here?" She asked coldly without looking at him.

"I’m going to a meeting. With you. Didn’t we make an appointment here? Did you forget?" Tristan said calmly, ignoring her annoyance.

"I mean, aren’t our meeting at 7 PM!? Why did you come so early?" She couldn’t believe this busy man could attend their meeting two hours early.

Tristan raised his hand to touch his eyebrow and smiled. He replied, "Why not?"

Bella, "..."

"Mr. Sinclair, I find it hard to believe a CEO of a big company like you has that much free time..." she continued, looking at him through the mirror on the elevator door.

He smiled at her sarcastic comment.

"I’m famous for always arriving on time. I’ve never been late for an appointment with anyone, including you, Ms. Donovan..." he said thoughtfully.

Bella was left confused, unsure if the man was being truthful or just making a random excuse.

She couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly when she saw his earnest gaze. She shook her head and ignored him.

However, Tristan didn’t let her remain silent; he asked, "Same question... Why did you also come here two hours early?"

Bella secretly took a deep breath. She wanted to ignore him, but she couldn’t.

"I need to go shopping before we meet," she said, feeling defeated.

Ding!

The elevator doors opened. Bella immediately walked away without giving him a chance to say something.

She quickened her pace, hoping Tristan would let her go. But she was wrong.

After a few steps, Bella breathed a sigh of relief, able to separate herself from Tristan. However, her relief only lasted a few seconds because Tristan’s voice was heard from behind.

"What a coincidence, Bella! I also want to go shopping," Tristan said, walking fast to match her step. "Let’s go shopping together," he said cheerfully.

Bella, "...."

She took a deep sigh.

Even children would know that he only made random excuses. Since when did a figure like him buy his clothes at the shopping mall?

She knew that Tristan had a personal shopper who provided his clothes and also had a personal tailor. He never buys his stuff alone.

Bella didn’t want this man to follow her to go shopping. She stopped her step abruptly and turned to see him. They stood so close, only two steps away.

She looked up to meet his eyes, feeling annoyed.

However, when their eyes met, her heart started to beat faster than usual.

Bella was dumbfounded hearing his words.

’Since when did this mighty cold man, Tristan Sinclair, change into this melancholic man and apologize to me?’ It was hard for her to believe she could witness this side of him.

’No. No... This man is not Tristan Sinclair. Even if this man is really Tristan, he will never be sincere. Please don’t be swayed, Bella!’

Bella shook her head, trying to push aside her curiosity about this new Tristan Sinclair.

She smiled faintly while turning her gaze away from him.

’Gosh! How could I almost wavered just hearing his apology!?’ Bella speaks to herself.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her mind. After a few seconds, she looked up to meet his eyes again.

"Tristan Sinclair, are you done talking!?"

He frowned.

When Bella saw Tristan didn’t say anything, she turned her back and walked away. "Bye! See you at seven."

Bella headed toward the children’s clothing section. She needed to buy Dax some clothes first before buying anything for herself.

Tristan can’t help but smile; looking at Bella left him just like that.

’Oh boy, this is going to be harder, Tristan!’ he laughs inwardly as he walks to follow her.
