My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 304

Chapter 304: The Overwhelming Emotions When Meeting Dax
When Tristan’s car entered their front yard, Bella saw her son Dax with his two grandfathers standing near the main door. From the look on their faces, It’s obvious they are waiting for them to arrive.

Bella was excited to meet her son earlier than she had imagined yesterday. She turned to look at her mother sitting beside her, and she was surprised to see how tense her mother looked.

A faint smile appeared on Bella’s lips as she gently moved her hand toward her mother’s tightly cupped hand on her thigh.

Just before Bella could say something, when her hand touched her mother’s, Bella was surprised to feel how cold her mother’s hands were, as if she were squeezing an ice cube.

“Mom, Mom…” Bella gently called, with her softest voice.

Natalie turned quickly to see her daughter, and there was tension in her eyes.

Bella smiled gently at her mother. “Don’t be nervous, Mom. My son will know what you’re thinking if your expression is like that: scared. He might think you’re afraid to meet him.”

Natalie’s expression became more tense, a mix of joy and apprehension.

Right now, she felt a whirlwind of emotions, from the excitement of meeting her grandson to the unease of facing her father-in-law, all mingled with a deep sense of humiliation. She sighed a few times to try to calm herself but failed.

“I will try not to. Don’t worry,” Natalie replied to Bella with a faint smile.

“OK, Mom. Let’s go meet your grandson and the others.” Bella immediately got out of the car. After opening the door for her mother, she ran to hug her son. She missed him so much.

After feeling satisfied hugging and kissing her chubby son on the cheek, Bella pulled her face away from him. Seeing how red his cheek was, she stifled a laugh, knowing her adorable son was shy.

Bella knew her son couldn’t stand being treated like a child in front of others. However, she ignored the protests in his eyes. She gently rubbed his reddened cheek. “Baby Dax, do you miss Mommy?”

Dax leaned closer, whispering to his mother, “Hmm, I miss you, Mom. But can you introduce me to the elder woman behind you?”

Instantly, Bella flinched in surprise. How could she forget about her mother? She immediately stood up straight and took Dax’s hand. She turned to see her mother with a smile.

“Mom, the handsome little man before you is your grandson. His name is Daxton Donovan Sinclair, but you may call him Dax.”

Then Bella turned to Dax. She introduced him to her mother. “Baby, this is my mother, your Grandma; you can call her Great-grandma or Granny; you can decide later…”

For a slight moment, Dax was surprised to hear that. He knew a family would visit them but didn’t think it was his grandmother.

Dax often heard from his mother, although not clearly. Still, he understood that his mother’s relationship with her parents was not harmonious.

‘Has Mother reconciled with her parents?’ Dax asked himself before he approached the older woman in front of him, who was crying when she saw him.

“Grandma, it’s nice to meet you. I’m Daxton. I’m almost five years old,” he said, reaching out his hand towards his grandmother, who was now covering her mouth with her hand, looking shocked to see him.

Dax didn’t know how to react, but he tried to act calmly while smiling at his grandmother.

“Oh, my Da-Daxton,” Natalie finally controlled her emotions, but her voice trembled as she called her grandson’s name. She felt her heart warm and swell.

She bent slightly to shake her little grandson’s tiny hand. Overwhelmed with happiness, she couldn’t help but pull the little boy into her embrace. Feeling his soft, chubby body made her heart swell even more.

“My little Dax, Granny is so lucky to meet you. You are such a sweet and handsome boy,” Natalie continued while tightening her embrace. She continued to express how happy she was to meet him finally.

Before long,

Bella saw Dax look uneasy as if asking her for help with his gaze. She immediately smiled and approached her mother.

“All right, Mom, let’s continue to speak inside the house first. And you also need to greet your father-in-law, right, Mom?” Bella teased her panicking mother.

As expected, Natalie instantly looked tense again. She let go of her tight embrace. Then, she looked at Isaac Donovan and Lewis Sinclair, standing near the entrance, looking in their direction.

***

After a short greeting, everyone entered the house and continued to chat in the living room.

While Natalie Wright chatted with Isaac Donovan and Lewis Sinclair, Bella cuddled her son. She spoke with Tristan at the end of the sofa. She only wanted to hug her son, not wanting to let him go.

After a few more minutes,

Dax finally felt uneasy. He sighed deeply as he looked up at his mother. “Mommy, I think it’s time for you to release me—”

“No, Baby! Let me hug you for a few more minutes. I still miss you,” Bella answered while tightening her hug.

Sitting beside Bella, Tristan could only chuckle, seeing his wife wanting to squeeze their son like Dax was her teddy bear.

Dax helplessly sighed deeply. He looked at his father for help, but his father seemed to ignore him.

“Mommy, didn’t you say you want to show my granny her place to stay?”

“Oh, you’re right!” Bella snapped when she heard that. She immediately sat up straight and looked in her mother’s direction.

Bella was surprised to see her mother listening closely to the two grandpas talking. Judging from her mother’s expression, she could guess that her mother was clearly holding back tears.

Gosh!

Bella was speechless and amused at what her grandpa said to her mother.

After listening for a few more seconds, she worried her mother might cry.

It seemed she needed to take action to help her mother escape from the two grandpas.

Sighing deeply, she looked at her husband.

“Tristan—”
