My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 508

Chapter 508: Call From Harper
The day before Dax’s birthday party, Bella was thrilled to see Harper’s name on her cell phone screen. She already knew from Sam that Harper had arrived. Still, Harper didn’t stay in the hotel they provided without telling Bella why.

Bella assumed Harper must be staying somewhere Sean had arranged. She called her a few times to discuss it, but her cell phone was inactive, and she didn’t reply to all her texts.

A few minutes ago, Bella sent Harper a warning text: “If you don’t call me now, I will ask Stefan to trace you.”

And it seems her last text message was enough to make Harper call her back.

“My goodness, Harper Reed! You finally called me. Are you ghosting me, girl?” Bella scolded her. “Geez! Where have you been? Why have you ignored me these past few days?” She bombarded her with questions.

“I’m sorry, Bella, but every time I try to reply to your text message or call you, I have a problem with my connection. Gosh, I think I should change my phone,” Harper replied.

Bella rolled her eyes when she heard her reason. “Sister, do you really expect me to believe that?” she chuckled before continuing. “Okay, tell me, how’s it going between you and Sean? Are you guys a couple now or what?”

“Oh my gosh, how did you find out? Did Sean tell you?” Harper asked in a panic. She had warned Sean not to tell Bella about them, as she wanted to tell her the good news in person.

Bella laughed happily, ignoring Harper’s panicked question. It was easy for her to guess that Sean must be making his move on Harper.

“Come on, tell me,” Harper whined. “W-What did he tell you?” She felt nervous about Bella’s opinion regarding this dating news, especially about meeting Sean’s mother.

Bella didn’t rush to answer her. Instead, she walked out of the party hall after doing the final check. While walking to the second floor, she continued to talk with Harper, “Well, I didn’t hear about it from Sean. But I only guessed it!”

“Oh my gosh, girl, you set me up!” Harper couldn’t help but scold her before she giggled.

“But, girl, well, you guessed it right. Yeah, Sean and I are now a couple…” Harper continues.

Bella sat on the couch, giggling happily as if her best friend was now sitting before her. It’s hard for her to describe how happy she was now to hear that two of her best friends, Sean and Harper, are officially dating.

“Congratulations, Harper. I’m truly happy for you and Sean. Well, to be honest with you…Sean didn’t say anything about it. But I only know he wants to move on and pursue you.”

“He told you about it?” Harper was surprised. “And you didn’t let me know about it? Geez, you are so heartless, girl.”

Bella laughed, “Well, yeah, he told me when his parents invited Tristan and me for dinner in their house. I met Sean there, and he told me about his plan. But he also warned me not to tell you about his plan because he wanted to meet you in person to discuss it directly with you.”

“I understand,” Harper giggling could be heard again.

“So when did he ask you out?” Bella asked, curious to know their story.

Harper answered, “He invited me, and I arrived two days ago and directly stayed at his family hotel—”

“Wow, you arrived two days ago and didn’t bother to notify me? Your best friend? Come on, gurl!?” Bella interrupted.

“I’m sorry, Bella. I was nervous because Sean had asked me to fly here earlier from my schedule. And you know what? The moment I landed, he said his mother wanted to meet me. I didn’t have time to contact you. I feel like I lost my ability to think at that time.”

Bella felt warm in her heart for her best friend. She was genuinely happy but needed to vent her upset: “Wow! That’s huge news. And you’re still hiding it from me? Are we still friends, Harper Reed?”

“I’m sorry, girl. I promise I will tell you everything tomorrow,” Harper responded cheerfully.

“So, tomorrow you will come with Sean!?” Bella asked excitedly. “Should I tell everyone about your relationship?”

“Yes and No!”

“Huh!? What do you mean?” Bella asked, confused.

Harper chuckled before saying, “Yes, we’ll come together tomorrow. But don’t tell the others. I want to surprise them all.”

Bella smiled when something crossed her mind, “Alright, I won’t tell them. But, Harper, there’s something I want to tell you.”

“What about?” Harper asked, suspicious that her best friend would do something. Prank her? She felt worried.

“Tristan invited Sean’s parents. So, they will probably come tomorrow to celebrate Dax’s birthday.” Bella’s smile grew wider when she heard Harper panicked from the other end. “Prepare yourself, girl.”

“Oh My Gosh! Jayson Spencer will come? Why on earth did your husband invite his parents?” Harper was in a panic and couldn’t hide how worried she was.

Harper had met Sean’s mother but not his father. Now that she heard his father would be coming, she instantly felt nervous. She still needed some courage to meet him in person, even though Sean had assured her that his father was very positive after his mother told him about their meeting.

“Oh, Harper…did you forget? Sean’s father is Tristan’s best friend. They even attended my private wedding with Tristan. They are very close,” Bella explained.

Harper was at a loss for words. She couldn’t reply to Bella because she was too nervous and busy imagining what would happen tomorrow.

“Harper? Are you still there? Or are you faint now?” Bella teased after waiting a few more seconds, but Harper said nothing.

“Ugh, Bella. I have to end the call now. I need to recheck my outfit to see whether I should change it. Bye—” Harper said and ended the call.

Bella laughed as the call was cut off.

“What’s making you so happy?” Tristan’s voice startled Bella as he walked toward her.

“OMG, Husband… You won’t believe it! Harper just called me. And she said she is dating Sean,” Bella explained.
