My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back
Chapter 452: Telling Dax
The next day.
Be woke up feeling unwell. Her head was slightly dizzy, and she was feeling nauseous. It seemed like she was starting to experience morning sickness again, just like when she was pregnant with Dax.
Not wanting to wake Tristan, Be slowly got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face and drink water.
After freshening up, she looked for Tristan, who was still asleep at seven in the morning. It was unusual to see him sleeping at that time.
’Did he stay up all night?’ she thought, noticing Tristan’sptop on the corner of the desk. She felt sorry for waking him up. So she let him sleep a little longer.
Be decided to check on Dax and was surprised to see him opening his bedroom door.
"Baby, you look so cute," Be smiled while approaching him. Dax already looked fresh and neat in his casual home clothes. "Done with your workout?"
"Yes, Mom. You know what? Uncle Geoffrey already taught me a few advanced moves, and I’m excited to learn more."
Be was surprised to hear that. She thought Geoffrey would only train Dax’s physique and leg strength as a foundation for the next few months.
"Wow, so fast?"
"Yes. My teacher said I learned diligently and grew faster and stronger than any kids my age he knew. That’s why my progress is much faster than he expected," Dax exined happily.
Looking at his enthusiasm, she felt her heart swell with pride for her son. She didn’t know why, but she felt like crying, imagining he would be an excellent big brother to his siblings.
’Should I tell him now?’ Be wondered if she should tell him about her pregnancy. She took his hand and squeezed it gently.
However, before she could tell him, her promise to Tristan that they would share the good news with Dax shed in her mind. She sighed deeply while thinking.
"Mommy?" Dax was worried when he looked into his mother’s red eyes. It seemed like she was about to cry. "What happened? Why are you crying?"
Realizing she was on the verge of tears, Be quickly turned her gaze away, hiding her blurry eyes. After a few more seconds, she looked at him again.
"Baby, Mom is fine..." Be felt terrible for making her son worry like this. "Alright, let’s wake Daddy up. We have something to tell you."
Be decided to share her pregnancy news with her son today because she couldn’t keep this good news a secret.
When they entered the bedroom, Tristan was still fast asleep.
"Huh!? Dad’s still sleeping?" Dax was surprised. He approached the bed and sat at the edge of it.
"Your daddy worked until dawn, so Mom let him sleep more. You can wake him now," Be said, opening the window curtains and the veranda door to let in the fresh air.
"Good morning, Daddy..."
Be turned to see the bed when she heard Tristan finally awake. Her heart felt warm as she saw Tristan cuddle their son.
"Good morning, buddy..." Tristan greeted him while pulling him into his arms, causing little Dax to giggle and ask him to stop.
Tristan chuckled. He finally stopped holding his son in his arms and nced at Be, sitting at the edge of the bed.
"Good morning, beautiful. Why didn’t you wake me up?" He asked while smiling at her.
"Good morning. I let you rest more," Be said, narrowing her eyes at him. "Can you please stop working until morning? Your health is more important than yourpany."
Be couldn’t resist scolding Tristan because she was too worried about his health. He works too hard leading his business empire but always forgets to rest.
"Yes, Daddy, please take care of your health," Little Dax suddenly chimed in, looking worried as he addressed his father, "Please don’t make my mommy angry or even cry like this morning."
Be was taken aback by her son’s honesty. ’Geez! Can you not say that, baby? Daddy will worry...’
Tristan was stunned. He immediately sat up, looking at Be with concern.
"Cry? Why did your mommy cry?" Tristan asked, clearly worried. He looked at Be, "Darling, are you not feeling well?" he asked. He started to worry if her pregnancy was making her ufortable.
"No, I feel better. But I was too emotional thinking about sharing the good news with our son," Be replied. She tried to signal Tristan to tell Dax about her pregnancy.
Tristan frowned slightly upon hearing her words. Confused.
"What good news, Mom? Dad?" Dax was curious. He sat up between his parents, looking at them anxiously.
"Mom and Daddy will tell you the good news we wanted to share with you..." Be smiled, looking at Tristan, who seemed still confused.
Tristan’s eyebrow slightly raised as if he wanted to ask her with his gaze, "Seriously? You want to tell him now?"
Be smiled at him and nodded.
Tristan looked at their son. He held Dax’s shoulder with one hand, "Buddy, congrattions, you will be a big brother..."
"Big brother?" Dax’s eyes were wide open, surprised by the news, "Really? Mom, Dad, really?" he asked, feeling unreal with the news.
"Yes, baby..." Be felt warm in her heart, looking at her son’s beaming eyes. She continued, "And you will have not only one sibling but two..."
"What? I will have two brothers, sisters...?" Dax’s mouth gaped, stunned.
"Hmm..." Be nodded, "But we do not yet know the gender. We will wait a few more weeks," she exined.
Dax opened his mouth, but no words left his lips; he was too emotional to know he would soon be a big brother.
"Are you happy, buddy?" Tristan asked.
"Yes...yes...I’m so happy," Dax said, nodding.
Tristan smiled while embracing Be and Dax. He was so happy to finally tell their son about it.
"Baby... Mom and Dad feel so happy, too. That’s why we can’t wait any longer to share with you," Be said. "But, please keep this to yourself. We need a few more weeks before telling everyone."
"Not even Granny and Gramps?" Dax asked, confused.
"Yes. We’ll wait for a few more weeks. Alright?"
"Hmm, understood."
The three hugged for a while before Noora finally came to call them for breakfast.
