My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 461

Chapter 461: Dating News!
For a few more seconds, no one spoke. Bella and Leo still looked at Sam, waiting for him to say something. However, after a few more seconds, he still didn’t talk.

Leo impatiently broke the silence.

“Sam, I know money is not a problem for you. You have a lot of money to buy fancy, expensive things without even a slight consideration,” he gently patted Sam’s shoulder before continuing.

“But you don’t have to throw away your cell phone just to have a reason to buy a new one. You could give it to someone in need without breaking it, right?” Leo added.

“Yes, Sam, what Leo said is true,” Bella chimed in, feeling sorry to see the latest iPhone on the floor. “Such a waste, Sam. The phone is still brand new and the latest in its series…” She gives a sad glance at Sam.

Sam was speechless when he heard their sarcastic, comforting words. He ignored them and picked up his cell phone from the floor. He felt relieved to see that it was working and the screen was flawless.

“What happened, Sam? What news did you read that shocked you so much?” Leo asked, dropping his teasing tone.

Sam hesitated to share what he’d read on the internet, especially with Bella present, because the news was related to her husband.

“Is it work-related, Sam?” Bella asked, concerned by Sam’s uncharacteristic nervousness. “Something happened to Stellar Entertainment?” she knew their entertainment business was the source of her headache.

“It’s not about the company, Boss.” Sam finally replied, looking directly at Bella. “It’s about…ugh… Well…The trending internet topic is shocking—” he couldn’t finish his words.

Sitting next to Sam, Leo could feel Sam’s fear and worry; he suspected something serious was happening. He took out his phone to check, wanting to know what was troubling Sam.

“What’s the news?” Bella asked Leo, starting to feel anxious, too. She wanted to check but didn’t have her cell phone now—at her office table.

“What the hell!” Leo cursed when he read the news. He turned to Sam, leaning close to him, and whispered urgently, “Man, contact Stefan immediately to delete the news. If Bella sees this article, it could cause a major headache for us.”

Sam was stunned. He had completely forgotten about that. He nodded and quickly typed a text message.

He typed rapidly on his phone.

[Sam] TOP Urgent! Stefan, delete any news related to Boss Tristan before Bella sees it.

[Sam] Do it now!!

Bella, observing the odd behavior of Leo and Sam, furrowed her brow. She was entirely in the dark about what they were up to.

What news had they read that caused them to ignore her? No one was answering her questions!

“What news? Does it have something to do with me? Is Tristan’s company in trouble? Damn it! Sam, Leo, can you guys tell me?” she demanded.

Still, she received no response, but she could see the worry in their eyes as they looked at her.

“Is the news about Tristan?” she pressed, staring at them both sharply. With no answer forthcoming, her heart started to beat faster, fearing something might have happened to her husband.

Sam and Leo felt tense. They didn’t reply to her, but they exchanged gazes, confused about whether to tell her.

Now, they both prayed Stefan would read the text message and erase all those articles about Tristan dating a woman in the park before Bella checked her cell phone.

“You guys!” Bella scolded them through her glare while standing from her seat to take her cell phone. However, the door swung open before she stepped, and Stefan entered the room.

The tension in the room grew thick, especially for Sam and Leo. They tried to signal Stefan to ask him about the article, but he ignored them and only had eyes for Bella.

Stefan walked inside and approached her, “Sis, don’t worry. Everything’s alright; don’t be worried or mad about it.”

“What the hell are you trying to say, Stefan?” Bella asked, already confused by Sam and Leo’s suspicious actions. Stefan’s arrival only added to her curiosity.

Stefan didn’t answer right away but asked her to sit again. He smiled and sat beside her. After seeing her sitting with an apparent frown on her forehead, he hurriedly answered, “Nothing’s wrong, sis.”

Narrowing her eyes in return, she said, “Don’t try to hide something from me. Speak now, or I will be angry…” She didn’t trust him.

“Yeah, nothing’s wrong, Boss,” Sam said.

“Hahaha, don’t be suspicious, Bella,” Leo added. “We just saw trashy gossip on the internet. No need to worry… Or, your blood pressure will spike, and your baby will be stressed if you read those articles.”

Sam, “…”

Bella, “…”

They both looked annoyed at Leo as if they wanted to put him in a container and send him to an empty island because he talked too much.

Stefan’s calm expression slowly changed as he looked at Bella beside him.

“Are you pregnant, sister?” Stefan calmly asked, but his expression betrayed him. His shock surpassed what he had felt earlier when he read the online dating gossip about Tristan Sinclair.

He saw Bella’s eyes beam and a smile graced her lips. He didn’t need her to say anything because he already knew the answer—she was pregnant.

Stefan couldn’t help but feel a tinge of warmth fill his heart with this shocking news. He expressed his happiness to her.

“Congratulations, sister Bella. I’m so happy for you. Finally, you can give little Dax a sibling,” he said, holding back his happy tears.

Bella couldn’t avoid it anymore. She knew that her bump would be apparent sooner or later, and people around her would eventually learn about her pregnancy. She couldn’t hide it for too long.

“Thank you, Stefan,” Bella smiled back at him, relieving Stefan and the others as Bella no longer remembered the gossip.

However, their relief slowly faded as Bella asked, “Stefan, now tell me what gossip you saw online. Let’s have tea and chat. I’ve been so bored all this time. I’ve been staying home too long and oblivious to the outside world.”

Leo and Sam seemed to relax a few seconds ago when Bella was distracted by her pregnancy, but tension returned suddenly.

They looked at Stefan, curious about how he would deliver the news to Bella.
