My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 554

Chapter 554: What If He Creates Chaos?
A few weeks later.

Not much has happened in Bella’s life since Emma and Arcy’s wedding in East City. She enjoys her days as a mother of three. She spends almost all her time with her firstborn, Dax, who has grown significantly.

Recently, Bella has been focusing a lot on Dax because she sometimes worries about how fast he grows. And it’s not only his physical but also his mind. He seems to be a lot smarter than many adults.

In addition to her daily life with her family, Bella is looking forward to the wedding of her two best friends, Sean Spencer and Harper Reed.

Their wedding ceremony is scheduled for tomorrow at one of Spencer’s hotels, which has been closed to the public for a few days to accommodate the event.

Bella can’t wait to attend and reunite with her best friends, including Jack Foster. She heard from Sam that Jack Foster had arrived yesterday.

She attempted to call him, but strangely, he didn’t answer. Instead, he texted her back to say he was busy with something and would call her once he finished his work.

However, until today, Jack Foster has never called her, as if he is trying to avoid her.

This makes Bella suspicious that he might cause trouble tomorrow at Harper’s wedding ceremony. She knows Jack still has high hopes of marrying Harper.

After thinking for a while, Bella typed something on her cell phone:

“Jack, would you like to come with me and Tristan to the wedding ceremony tomorrow?”

After sending the text message, Bella put her phone on the table.

If she could keep Jack close to them, she might be able to anticipate what he would do, right?

“Why can’t this guy move on? He’s so selfish. How could he wish Harper would not marry her choice and instead end up marrying him? Jack, Jack… you are such a fool! How shameless!”

Bella softly mutters, trying to distract herself from thinking about Jack, watching the business news on television, and starting to pump her breast milk for the twins.

“Oh, so… Is Jack Foster a fool? Seriously?” Tristan’s voice suddenly echoed from the office door. Bella turned to see him approaching.

“You hear what I’m saying?” Bella chuckled as he drew near.

Tristan didn’t reply immediately; instead, he walked to the seating area. After settling beside her, he said, “Yes, I hear you, albeit faintly. You seem to have branded Jack a fool. How could he run such a large enterprise if that were true?”

Bella paused what she was doing. After tidying up the pumping kit, she looked at Tristan, her expression growing somber enough to concern him. He remained silent, waiting for her to speak.

After taking a deep breath, Bella finally began, “Do you remember the story I told you about the foolish promise Jack and Harper made back in college?”

Tristan furrowed his forehead, trying to remember what Bella was referring to. After a moment, he recalled.

“You mean they’ll get married if they’re both still single at thirty-five?” Tristan asked.

“Yes, that’s it,” Bella replied with a shrug. “But I’m worried Jack will cause trouble at Harper’s wedding ceremony tomorrow.”

“Cause trouble? What do you mean?” Tristan asked, growing more confused.

Bella quickly explained her conversation with Jack a few months ago before Harper announced her relationship with Sean. Jack intends to marry Harper once they both turn thirty-five, which is now only three years away.

“That’s why I think Jack will cause trouble tomorrow. I tried to contact him yesterday, but he seemed to avoid me.” Bella paused for a long, deep breath.

Bella adds, “Jack said he is busy. He promised to return my call, but until now, he hasn’t.” A trace of worry was heard in her voice.

Tristan shook his head slowly while laughing softly.

“What a foolish man! How can he just claim that Harper is his last hope? Did he think no one would be attracted to Harper?” He said.

“I know, right? I told him he had been married once, while Harper had never been. He has no right to ruin Harper’s happiness by trying to steal her from Sean. He is a foolish man!”

“Hmm, he is—” Tristan smiled and turned his eyes to the television. He should try not to talk about Jack again, or his wife would be stressed.

Bella also stopped talking about Jack; she excused herself to store the breast milk she had just pumped in the cooler.

Not long after, Bella returned. She saw Tristan was still sitting on the sofa watching the business news.

Sitting beside Tristan, she reached for her cell phone, checking for Jack’s reply. Her expression turned sour again when she didn’t get a response from Jack.

Instead, Sam and Leo were making a fuss on the group chat. They both asked her about tomorrow’s wedding ceremony.

“Why did they want to come with us? These two fools, why were they afraid the guard would stop them from entering the hotel?” Bella smirks.

Tristan turned to see her, noticing she looked annoyed as she typed on her cell phone.

“Who wants to come with us to the wedding ceremony?” Tristan asked.

“Sam and Leo. They asked if they could join us,” Bella replied thoughtfully. “Don’t worry, hubby. They are not going with us in the same car. They want to follow our car. They said no one, not a single presidential guard, would stop you since they know how close you are to Jayson Spencer.”

Tristan chuckled.

“Well, if they have an official invitation, they should be able to enter the hotel area without any issues. I heard the event organizer requested a recent photograph of all the guests, right?”

“Yes,” Bella nodded. “Harper mentioned that everyone entering the hotel area would go through facial recognition to ensure no intruders get in. But Sam and Leo got anxious when they learned that many influential figures would attend and how tight the security would be. They hate being treated like strangers by the Guards.”

“That makes sense. Jayson is the current president of this country, so it’s natural for security to be strict. If they want, they can follow our car, and I’ll ensure they can enter the venue without any problems.”

“Thank you, hubby,” Bella said before turning her attention back to her cell phone, letting Sam and Leo know to come to her house tomorrow at noon before they left for the wedding ceremony.
