Before Bella could speak, Emma’s curious and tense voice could be heard from the other end.
"Bella, did you find your mother?"
"Yes, Aunty Emma, I found my mother…" Bella immediately shared the good news but didn’t mention her mother’s illness.
"Thank GOD. I’m so happy to hear that, Bella..." Emma shouted in happiness.
"Yes, me too." A smile graced her face before she continued, "Aunty, where are you now?"
"I am still at the house; I plan to go to the airport in two hours. Why do you ask?"
Bella was grateful that Aunty Emma had not yet left the house. She immediately told her aunty about her plan to fly to East City and asked her to prepare to fly with her.
She would have someone pick her up a few minutes ahead and drive her to the private airport once Leo confirmed the jet she would use.
Emma was shocked to hear that. She thought Bella would only visit East City in the next few days.
’Why did Bella suddenly change her plan?’
"Did something happen to your mother? Why do you suddenly want to fly there today?" Emma started to get suspicious; something must have happened to Natalie.
Bella silently took a deep breath. She didn’t plan to tell her over the phone. She still has so many things to do now.
"Aunty, I will tell you later when we meet," Bella said before excusing herself to end the call. She needed to call Aunty Noora and her son, too.
After ending the call with Emma, Bella glanced at Leo. She saw him still busy making a call.
Bella could only pray inwardly, hoping Leo would find a private jet for her as she couldn’t bear the thought of flying a commercial flight. It would be time-consuming.
Averting her gaze from Leo, Bella dialed Noora’s number.
The phone connected to the second ring. She immediately asked Noora to pack a few of her clothes and give them to Emma.
Noora was shocked to hear that.
Not only was Noora shocked, but Dax, sitting beside Noora, could also clearly hear his mother’s voice. He was shocked but remained silent and continued to listen to their conversation.
"Young Miss, you won’t be coming home tonight?" Noora asked.
"Yes, I will fly to East City this afternoon with Aunt Emma," Bella responded casually, not wanting to worry Noora if she knew what really happened to her parents in East City.
"Is there a problem there? Why did you suddenly fly to the East!?" Noora didn’t remember Bella ever talking about visiting East City, so she became suspicious; something terrible had happened there.
Bella could only sigh softly. She did not answer Noora’s question but instead asked her to prepare clothes because she didn’t have much time.
Before Noora could ask further, Bella told her to give her phone to Dax. She also needed to talk to her son.
