My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back
Chapter 162: Night Walk (3)
Be couldn’t resist venting her sarcasm, ’Oh wow, why is this man boasting his wealth to me now!? Tsk! How shameless...’
"Are you joking, right?" How could this man lightly say to buy a jet like he bought an ice cream?
"No. When it’s about you and Dax, never. And, also... I have a friend who sells private jets. He has often begged me to buy one to help boost his sales performance. I’ve always declined his offers, but now I have a reason to buy one as a gift for our son." Tristan said calmly, but Be almost choked hearing his words.
’My goodness... this man was telling the truth. How rich is he? Is it unlimited?’ she wondered, trying to dismiss the idea of counting his wealth.
When Tristan saw Be staring at him with her confused gaze, he smiled and exined more.
"Be, I’m not going to buy a new jet but a used one. I hope you don’t mind about that. I mean... I can order a new jet for Dax if you find a used jet—"
"No... No... Of course, I don’t mind," Be answered quickly, worried that this man would misunderstand again.
’Oh my, why does talking to him feel so difficult?’ She could only vent her frustration in her mind. Before continuing her words, "...ugh, Tristan, you can give him what you want. He is your son, after all."
Be couldn’t bear to talk to him about this matter. She will never win.
Speaking of private jets, Be could actually afford one for herself or Dax. But why should she do that? She rarely flies, and the private ne only charges a monthly fee for service and operating costs. She heard from Jack that he would have to pay around $700K to $1 million annually.
What a waste!
Be would prefer to use that money to invest in a new startuppany, earn more profits, or buy shares to receive dividends.
"Tristan, if you buy a Private Jet for Dax, I expect you to pay the annual service and operating costs…" Be reminded him firmly. It would be a hassle if she had to pay for it.
Tristan was amused to hear Be’s worry. When he saw her ring at him as if scolding him through her gaze, he answered her hastily.
"You don’t need to think about that, Be. I have apany that services and maintains private jets in this country. So, any service and maintenance charges on any jet under my name or Dax are part of thepany’s Owners’ expenses..."
Be silently sighed, aware that involving or mentioning Dax in their conversation would not favor her because Tristan was doing nothing but positive and amazing things for Dax. She nods in agreement with his decision.
After hearing Tristan’s exnation regarding the used superjet he nned to purchase, Be began to feel drowsy. She yawned a few times without making a sound.
Tristan fell silent upon seeing Be and asked if she was okay.
"I’m feeling exhausted. I think I should head home now," Be said as she stood up.
He stood up and said, "I’m sorry, Be, for making you tired. Let me walk you home."
Be walked silently beside Tristan as they made their way to her house. Once they arrived, Tristan excused himself and headed to his own house.
After walking a few steps, Tristan turned to face Be and said, "Good night, Be. I’ll call you tomorrow." He smiled before continuing to walk.
"Mmm, goodnight, Tristan Sinir..." she whispered to herself.
After watching Tristan walk away, Be went inside her house. When she reached her bedroom, she was surprised to find his long coat still hanging on her shoulder.
She chuckled softly.
"Geez!! How could you forget to return this, Be?"
She took off Tristan’s long coat, carefully folded it, and ced it on the sofa.
Be tried to remind herself to return his coat tomorrow if they met.

Next morning.
Knowing that the mafia was monitoring her made Be sleep poorlyst night. Even when she tried, she couldn’t ignore this matter.
When Be arrived at her office, the first thing on her agenda was to discuss the Dark Skull organization. She invited Sam and Leo toe to her office.
Not long after,
Leo arrived at Be’s office after one of her secretaries told him to. When he entered, he sat across from Be and looked at Sam, sitting next to him.
"Morning, Boss. Why did you call us so early?" Leo asked, narrowing his eyes at Be. He was curious.
It wasn’t just Leo who was curious and confused; Sam was too. Be usuallyes to the office at ten, but today is different. She already arrives before nine.
Be ignores Leo’s question. She turns to Sam and asks, "Have you ever heard of an organization named Dark Skull?"
Sam’s face suddenly turned pale when he heard that name again. After many years, he was not active in his military team. This was the first time he heard someone say that evil organization.
"How do you know about that evil group, Boss?" Sam asked in shock, shocked to learn that Be knew about the most evil organization he had ever encountered.
"Do you know them or not?" Be asked again, ignoring his question. Judging by Sam’s expression, she knew Sam was familiar with them.
"I know them. They are one of the reasons I retired from the military. I was injured after a secret operation against them. Even then, we seeded in destroying many parts of the organization, but we failed to capture its top leader. He escaped..." Sam clenched his fists in anger before he exined more about what happened in the past.
"Wait… Wait… Who the hell is this Dark Skull?" Leo suddenly chimed in, his eyes darting towards Be and Sam. "Can you guys exin it to me?"
Be sighs deeply, "Sam, you tell him."
Sam immediately told Leo about the Dark Skull organization.
