Tristan didn’t wait for Bella to react as he walked to the corner. He settled on the leather sofa after taking a book from a nearby bookshelf.
He tried to be naturally preoccupied with the book as soon as possible to give Bella a sense of privacy.
Bella smiled as she saw him engrossed in his book. She approached his table nonchalantly and only thought about her work.
However, as Bella was about to sit down and open the laptop, she suddenly froze when she noticed a beautiful photo frame on the table.
’How could he still have this picture?!’ she muttered as she looked at their old wedding photo.
Bella was completely taken aback when she noticed their wedding photograph on the table. She hadn’t thought about the photo since their separation, not even once. However, at that moment, the memories of the photo and the day it was captured flooded her mind.
Seeing how beautiful she looked in her wedding dress brought back all her feelings of that time. She clearly remembered the smile in the photo—her happiness at finally becoming Tristan Sinclair’s wife.
Bella used to find it amusing when she recalled her past. At first, when she learned that her grandfather and parents had asked her to marry Tristan, she despised the idea. However, after meeting Tristan in person, she unexpectedly turns into a silly girl who falls head over heels in love with him.
How stupid!
Now, looking at her bride’s happy smile in their wedding photo, Bella can’t help but smile too.
However, when her gaze fixed on Tristan’s face, her smile gradually faded. Looking at Tristan’s deadpan expression — his gaze on the picture didn’t share happiness and sincerity contrast with her.
She felt her heartache as she remembered that Tristan never loved her. To him, their marriage was only a duty to produce heirs for the Sinclair family.
Bella’s hand clenched into a tight fist to distract her broken heart.
’Why does Tristan still own this picture!?’ She wonders.
Bella clearly remembered asking Noora to burn all their wedding photos. She didn’t even keep anything for herself because there was no point in keeping it.
’Did Tristan have the hard drive for our wedding photo? No. It’s impossible...’
Bella immediately dismissed that thought because she remembered that the only people who took photos of their wedding were her family. All their hard drives and wedding photos were destroyed.
She didn’t remember Tristan’s family assigning a photographer at that time because their wedding was private and top secret, and only a few people attended.
Bella slowly turns her gaze from the picture to Tristan. She saw him immersed in reading the book on his lap.
Instantly, she feels her heart quickened.
’How handsome…’ she whispered to herself, thinking that the man in the corner was the God who grace from heaven and blessed her eyes with his present. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
She refused to blink, afraid of God disappearing from her sight.
Badam!
Badam!
Bella could hear her own heartbeat loudly race inside her.
Not long after, the rusty feelings she had once had, which she had long buried deep in her heart, slowly rose, causing her hands to shake and her knees to weaken.
Bella almost stumbles when her knee gives in. She grabs the table’s edge while lowering her gaze to distract her mind from him.
After a few moments,
