172 /569

A few minutes later,

Bella finished preparing herself and changed into office clothes. She wore a turtleneck to stay warm, afraid the fever would reappear. She also wore straight trousers because she planned to visit a mining site today.

After grabbing her bag and coat, she rushed to Dax’s room to check on him, only to find that her son was not there. The bed was neatly made, and there were no traces of use.

She feels terrible. Her son had already woken up, while she was only waking up now.

’Why didn’t Noora wake me up?’ She wondered, puzzled. It was strange. Noora was always so disciplined about waking her up at seven for breakfast, especially if she knew she had plans to go to the office.

Bella headed down to the dining table, hoping to find Dax there. Walking to the first floor, she turned on her cell phone. Suddenly, her phone began to vibrate nonstop, and multiple notifications popped up on the screen.

She was stunned.

Her cell phone rarely gets notifications because only certain people know her number. Even when she left the country, she blocked almost all phone contacts in her phone book.

While scrolling, she stopped midway on the stairs. She was curious to know who could have contacted her. Upon seeing that most of them were from Tristan, she couldn’t help but smile.

She opened his message to see if he had something important to share.

[Tristan] Good morning, Bella. I hope you sleep well.

[Tristan] I asked Geoffrey not to wake you for breakfast because we were on video calls late at night.

Instantly, Bella’s expression turned frosty, knowing the culprit of why Noora didn’t wake her up this morning was Tristan Shameless Sinclair.

’Gosh! This man, why would he tell Geoffrey something like that?’ Bella vented her frustration in her mind.

Bella was sure that by now, everyone would think her relationship with Tristan was close enough to make video calls until late at night. How shameless!

[Tristan] I’m boarding now. See you and Dax soon. (Love Emoji)

Bella silently chuckled, looking at the emoji he used. She glanced at the time he sent the text two hours ago.

She type to reply to his text,

[Bella] Please inform me when you land.

However, just before she could hit SEND, she heard Dax’s voice coming from the bottom of the stairs.

"Good morning, Mommy," Dax’s cheerful voice put Bella in a good mood again. She rushes to him while admiring his cute beach outfit. He looks adorable in his blue shorts, T-shirt of the same color, hat, and sandals.

"Good morning, my baby. Are you going to the beach now?" she asked, half kneeling to meet his lovely gaze.

"Yes, I am waiting for Aunty Noora. She is going to the kitchen to grab our snacks," said Dax, his eyes beaming with excitement for food.

"I see. Baby, please keep in mind that you must not go swimming alone. You can only play on the white sandy beach. Also, try not to expose yourself to too much sun, or your skin might get burnt." Bella expressed her concerns, but Dax smiled slightly in response.

He feels amused, looking at how worried his mother is now.

"Mommy, don’t worry. I know. My teacher will also accompany me..." said Dax, pointing to Geoffrey as he walked towards them. Bella looked at Geoffrey as he stood up.
