My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 551

Chapter 551: Busyness Before Flying To East City
July 19.

The day they fly to East Town is approaching fast. Bella and her family will fly today, two days before Emma and Archy’s wedding on July 21.

They have been busy packing since morning. Noora and her mother are helping her. Meanwhile, Tristan is going to his office and will only meet them at the airport at noon.

While sitting on the couch and breastfeeding Aurora, Bella saw Noora packing some of her clothes in the walk-in closet.

“Aunty, how about baby stuff?”

“Don’t worry, ma’am. I have been packing the twins’ and Dax’s stuff since last night. They are all set.” Noora said with a smile without stopping what she was doing.

“Thank you, Aunty.” Bella silently answers. She should have been packing since last night, but her husband kept her busy all night. Since she allowed him to touch her, he didn’t hold back. He was going all over her and never left her alone last night.

Today, Bella feels too weak to leave the bed. She can only force herself to look after her baby and have breakfast with Dax, which causes her to delay packing again.

“Alright, I’m done with your stuff, Ma’am,” Noora said as she finished packing two suitcases for Bella. After she put the suitcases in the corner, she turned to see Bella. “I will start packing for Master Tristan.”

“No, Aunty Noora. Let me do it. I will pack Tristan’s stuff myself,” Bella immediately rejected. She wouldn’t allow someone to touch her husband’s personal stuff.

“Are you sure, Ma’am? We only have a few hours before we go to the airport,” Noora smiled, noticing how panicky Bella was now.

“Yes. Yes…Positive. Please. But I need you to take care of Aurora. And ask the maid to help you if you need anything else…” Bella instructed.

Since they moved back to this place, Bella never allowed any other maid to come to the second floor, where her room and child were. Even though the old staff who had lived here were gone and replaced by new people, Bella was hesitant to ask anyone else to go up here besides Noora and Geoffrey.

“Okay, Ma’am,” Noora smiled. “I will carry baby Aurora and look after Oliver. Don’t worry about them. Your mother will help me prepare. And that should be enough help for me. But, ma’am, you must also hurry because we will go to the airport after lunch.”

Bella nodded and waved her hand, asking Noora to leave her alone.

…

They will stay in the East City for only a week.

Bella packed only one suitcase for Tristan. She will ask him to shop for more if his clothes are not enough.

In just a few minutes, she had packed Tristan’s suitcase. She then dragged three suitcases from the walk-in closet and placed them near the bedroom door.

Just as Bella wanted to rest briefly before lunchtime, she heard her phone ring. Her smile widened when she saw that it was Harper calling.

“Hello, my Girl. Did you read my text?” Harper’s voice sounded impatient at the end.

“What text?” Bella asked before she softly chuckled. Nowadays, she doesn’t have time to check her cell phone.

She could only create a unique ringtone for her family and friends, so even if she set her cell phone on silent mode, it would ring if they called her. But it would not ring for notification of text messages or chats from the application.

“Yeah. I sent it like two hours ago…?”

“Sorry, dear. I rarely check my phone now. I barely had time to sleep. I’m too busy with the twins. What is it about anyway? Something important happened there?”

“Ugh, Bella, I’m sad now…my best friend has forgotten and abandoned me,” Harper sounded sad, but Bella couldn’t help but laugh.

“Oh, come on, Gurl! I don’t have time to hold a cell phone. And I told you a few days ago that I would fly to the East City, right? My aunt is getting married this Sunday. So we are busy packing now. You know I’m packing for five people now, right? I pack for Tristan, myself, and the children.”

Bella said apologetically, trying to make Harper feel bad for her.

Harper hurriedly dismissed her idea to tease her further; she laughed slightly before saying, “Oops! Sorry, Girl… Well, this is not a rush or an important matter. But I just want to let you know my wedding date has been set.” she excitedly said.

“Oh my God!! I’m so happy for you,” Bella exclaimed. Hurriedly, she walked to the seating area and sat on the sofa. “When is the big day?” she asked excitedly.

“September 1,” Harper told Bella about her wedding plans, including the location and other details.

After a few minutes, Bella gasped.

“Wow, why does your wedding sound like a royal wedding? Will it be covered on national TV?”

“Hahaha, I know, right? Yeah, a national TV station will cover the wedding. His father can’t refuse because he is the current president. So…”

“Wow, you’re so lucky, Harper Reed. You like those things, right?”

“Yeah.” Harper can’t help but chuckle hearing Bella’s words. She was indeed correct; she likes glamorous things.

“Well, Harper, I’m so happy for you and Sean. And I’m also happy with myself; I’ve lost so much weight lately,” Bella said with relief.

“Oh, girl! You don’t need to lose weight so drastically. It’s still July. You still have a month and a half to diet,” Harper reassured her.

Bella sighed deeply before responding, “Yeah, I know. But I can’t diet. I need to feed my twins. I could only do exercise…”

“Ah, you’re right.”

“So, what do you want from me? I mean, as a gift?” Bella asked.

“No need. You already gave me the biggest present in my life, my husband.”

“Cough!” Bella almost choked on Harper’s answer. “Hell, Harper Reed, he is not my present. He chose you and is willing to open his heart to you; it has nothing to do with me.”

“Hahaha, I know, I know…I’m just trying to humor you, girl.”

“Tsk, tsk, stop talking like that again, Harper. If Sean hears it, he might be sad,” Bella faintly said.

Harper was suddenly stunned when he heard Bella’s words. “Girl, thank you for reminding me. I will stop talking about those again.”

“Good! So, tell me what you want as long as I can afford it. I will buy it for you.”

“Seriously?”

“Hmm…” Bella became nervous, worried that she would ask for something that would drain her savings.

After a few moments of silence, Harper finally said, “Bella, you can’t refuse.”

“What is it? The present you want?”

“I don’t need anything expensive. I just need your apartment near the central park!”

Bella gasped. This girl, how could she ask for that place? That place was her first house in the US, a significant milestone for her because she bought it with her own money. Even though the place only had two bedrooms, the location was worth more than a million dollars.

“Silence means okay! And no backsies!” Harper giggled. “Thank you, girl; you are the best!”

Bella was rendered speechless.
