My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 236

Chapter 236: Please, Don’t Stop Me!
But later, Bella’s face turned pale as she looked at Tristan.

“H-Hubby… Do you know about the Dawson Group? I mean, about my marriage arrangement with the owner?”

Tristan noticed her panicked expression.

He smiled at her before saying, “I found out that the CEO of the Dawson Group had his eyes on you. This annoyed me,” he put on a sad expression, causing Bella to frown slightly.

“Wait, weren’t you the one who told me about that?” Tristan asked.

Bella forgot whether she had ever talked to him about this. They talked about so many things in the past few days that she no longer remembers which story she told him or not because she only realized her husband was a good investigator. He could make someone speak anything without them realizing it.

“Maybe…” She said briefly.

Tristan offered her orange juice before continuing his words. “My darling wife… I hope you didn’t stop me from teaching the Dawson Group a lesson,” he said casually, but Bella saw a flash of fire in his eyes.

‘He is mad…’ She took a deep breath.

“I won’t stop you. You can do anything you deem necessary with them…” She chuckled. “But, you don’t have to do anything for my family. I can take care of it myself. I will do something to make my uncle and father regret what they did to me!”

Bella couldn’t wait to execute her plan. She only needed to talk to her grandpa before taking action because this would affect the Donovan Group.

Even though her grandpa has retired from the company, he is still its founder. It would hurt him to know she destroyed it, so she needs to inform him before carrying out her plan.

“What are you going to do about your uncle?”

She smiled mysteriously at him, “It’s a secret for now. But the plan is in motion, and I promise you… you will find out later…”

Tristan couldn’t help but laugh, seeing how adorable she was. It made him want to hold her in his arms. But they are in the restaurant now, worried he can’t hold himself.

“Alright, alright. I trust you. Okay, let’s go home now…” Tristan stood from his seat and offered his hand to her.

East City.

Meanwhile, within one of the buildings in East City,

Three old men sat in a large and luxurious office room. Their faces looked tense. No one tried to dilute the tension that was so thick in the room.

Their gazes were focused on the thin black cell phone on the table before them. They waited for the phone to ring to convey the vital news they anticipated to hear.

However, it had been three hours past the specified time, and the phone still had not rung. It was making them even more anxious.

After several minutes, one of the men in the room finally broke the silence by clearing his throat before the man said in a deep voice.

“Brad, what happened? Why haven’t your people reported to you yet?” The man’s eyes stared at the round-faced man with bald spots in the middle of his head; he was Bradley Caville, the owner of Dawson Group.

Bradley Caville saw Jacob Donovan, who was sitting opposite him. His frown deepened before he said confusedly, “I don’t understand either, Brother Jacob. Why haven’t they called me yet? This isn’t like how they usually do. These people usually work quickly and cleanly to carry out this kind of task…”

Jacob Donovan frowned. Feeling confused, the same as Bradley.

“Did they fail to carry on your order?” another man in the room asked. Suddenly, Bradley and Jacob looked at him with a “Seriously?” look.

“Fail? You said my people failed!?” Bradley muttered softly before his loud laughter booming, “Bwa-ha-ha-ha.”

After his booming laughter subsided, Bradley Caville continued, “My friend Lucas, don’t underestimate my people. They are very skilled at this kind of work. Bringing your daughter to this city is an easy job for them.” He said proudly.

Lucas Donovan took a deep breath, hearing Bradley’s words and looking at his confidence.

But, something still bugged his heart about the idea of forcibly bringing Bella to this city; it was not his own idea. He didn’t favor this method but couldn’t argue with Jacob and Bradley, forcing Bella to return to this city to finalize their marriage in court.

And what made him finally agree with them was his daughter’s stubbornness and his father’s firm refusal.

“Good then… I hope they succeed. But, Brad… make sure your people won’t hurt her, or I’ll be mad at you!” Lucas said seriously, his sharp eyes fixed on Bradley.

Although Bradley was Lucas’ best friend, he still had the right to ensure his daughter’s safety before marrying her to Bradley.

“Bwa-Ha-ha-ha…” Suddenly, Bradley’s distinctive laugh rang out in the room again. “You think I will let them live if they hurt my wife?? I will kill them all, even if they touch her hair. Don’t worry too much, my dear friend…”

Bradley’s eyes suddenly lit up again as he tried to imagine the little girl he had seen several years ago, who would become his wife tomorrow if they succeeded in bringing her today. He couldn’t wait to consummate their marriage immediately.

Lucas Donovan could only shake his head when he saw Bradley’s smug-looking face. Looking at his smile widely, he could guess what was on his mind now.

‘This old brat!’ Lucas vented his sarcasm in his mind before turning his gaze to his older brother. “Brother, do we need to wait here?”

“Why? Do you need to go somewhere now?” Jacob Donovan slightly raised his eyebrow, looking at Lucas.

“Yes. I need to see Father once more before he returns to the capital. I heard he will fly to the capital this afternoon.”

Jacob Donovan frowned momentarily as if considering something before finally saying, “Okay. Okay. You may go… I will stay here waiting for the good news.”

“Well then, I will excuse myself.” Lucas Donovan immediately excused himself and left the room. He headed straight for his father’s house, trying to convince him again to resolve this matter quickly.

However, as soon as Lucas arrived in his car, he was shocked when he read the short message on his cell phone.

“What the hell!?” He muttered, annoyed.
