My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 60

Shopping Together
Tristan can’t help but smile; looking at Bella left him just like that.

‘Oh boy, this is going to be harder, Tristan!’ he laughs inwardly as he walks to follow her while texting someone.

When Tristan saw Bella enter a children’s clothing shop, his heart raced as he realized she wanted to buy clothes for their son.

He hastened his steps and entered the shop as well. There were no other customers, only them and two shopkeepers.

Tristan didn’t approach Bella; instead, he sat in the seating area, his eyes never leaving her.

“Sir, do you need anything?” one of the shopkeepers asked him.

Tristan shook his head. “No, I’m just here with her.”

“So, the madam over there is your wife…” the shopkeeper nodded slightly.

Instantly, Tristan felt a surge of satisfaction hearing the shopkeeper refer to Bella as his wife. He liked that!

“Yes. You can help my wife first. Give her anything she wants. And…” Tristan took out his black card and handed it to the shopkeeper. “Use this card to pay for her purchases.”

The shopkeeper was surprised to see the Sinclair Corp logo on the card. She glanced at the man again to see if she recognized him. When she looked closely at his face, she was shocked.

Hurriedly, she accepted the card, bowed her head slightly, and then walked to the cashier area to inform her colleagues.

“Oh my god… You won’t believe who our customers are now. Look at that man over there. He… He’s Tristan Sinclair,” she whispered to her friend.

“What?” The cashier looked over at the seating area and was shocked to see a figure she usually saw on television news or the internet now sitting in their shop.

“That woman over there was his wife. Mr. Sinclair asked me to use this card if his wife is done shopping. So, you can process it with this card…” She placed Tristan’s card on the cashier’s table.

“I’ll assist Ms. Sinclair first…” She said excitedly, knowing they might receive a substantial bonus if this wealthy couple made many purchases today.

“Go! I’ll call our manager to let him know. A big shot is now shopping in our store,” the cashier said as she took out her cell phone.

…

Bella was so absorbed in browsing the adorable children’s clothing that she didn’t notice Tristan in the shop.

She was too lost in her own world, captivated by the many cute items available to Dax. It was rare for Bella to shop for her son’s clothes in a physical store; back in Sweden, she usually bought them online.

However, the clothes often didn’t match the website’s pictures or descriptions. There were limited options, with only a few nearby clothing shops in their village.

Entering this shop, which specialized in children’s clothing and carried well-known brands suited for Dax’s age, made her want to buy everything in sight. Her shopping basket was nearly overflowing with Shirts, trousers, and winter jackets.

“Madam, do you need another basket?” the shop attendant asked politely.

“Yes, please,” Bella replied with a slight smile. Then, she accepts the empty basket and continues browsing.

“Let me carry the basket,” she offered, taking the full basket from Bella’s hands and replacing it with an empty one.

“I need to buy shoes, too,” Bella mentioned as she went to another section to look at boots.

Already familiar with Dax’s size, Bella confidently chose several pairs of shoes, boots, and sneakers without worrying about getting the wrong size. The shopkeeper swiftly handed her another empty basket as she continued her shopping spree.

Just as Bella was about to fill her basket again, her eyes widened in surprise as she noticed Tristan casually sitting on the small couch in the middle of the shop, his eyes fixed on her with a warm smile gracing his lips.

‘Damn! Why is this man still here?’ Bella cursed inwardly when she saw him approaching her from his seat.

Bella opened her mouth to say something, but not a single word left her lips; she was perplexed by this situation.

She was even more shocked when she heard the shopkeeper’s words. “Ms. Sinclair, let me carry your basket—”

Bella felt her throat dry when hearing the shopkeeper calling her Ms. Sinclair.

‘What the hell happened here? Why does this shopkeeper call me Ms. Sinclair? Did Tristan tell them like that?’ She was puzzled but didn’t say anything; she just let the basket move to the shopkeeper’s hand.

Bella turned her confused-looking gaze to Tristan, “W-Why are you here?” she asked in her low voice when Tristan stood right before her.

“Shopping, of course…” Tristan smiled, looking at her panicked expression.

“Y-You also buy children’s clothes?” Bella asked. She remembers this man had a child with his other woman. He must come here to buy clothes for his child, right?

Tristan leans closer to her, causing Bella to move a step behind, avoiding him. He chuckled.

“Yes. I come to buy clothes for our son…” he whispered.

Bella was speechless.

She took a deep breath while narrowing her eyes at him.

“Tristan, please… I don’t want to fight with you here. Can you leave me alone now? We can talk about it later. But now is not the time and place!” she said calmly, even though she wanted to scold him.

Tristan smiled as he stood straight. He put his hand on his trouser pocket while smiling at her. Looking at how angry she was now made him even more interested in her.

“Alright, let’s settle our shopping here…” Tristan calmly said, walking to the cashier’s desk. “You can process the payment,” he ordered to the cashier.

Bella was shocked. She didn’t ask him to pay. Why did he order the cashier now? She hurried to the cashier, and before she said anything, Tristan held her hand and pulled her to stand beside him.

She looked up to see him, “I will—”

Tristan leaned closer to her. “He is my son too. Let me pay for everything. Please, Bella… Don’t stop me…” He whispers gently, but Bella feels this man stating something she can’t refuse.
