Although Bella wanted to ignore this, she couldn’t. She needs to talk to Sean if she wants this relationship to work.
"How will you handle Tristan? I mean, once he knows Dax is his son, he will definitely give me trouble—"
Sean’s blissful expression vanished. He had planned to meet Tristan today before flying to the Middle East, but that plan couldn’t be carried out today. He was already late and had to return to his base immediately.
"And, as for me, I will sacrifice everything for Dax, even my feelings..." Bella wanted to say that but was worried it would hurt Sean. All the sentences on the tip of her tongue came back into her throat.
She cleared her throat before saying, "Sean, Tristan will find out about Dax sooner or later. I’m afraid he will cause you trouble, too."
Sean’s face slowly turned dark. He imagined talking to Tristan about his plans to marry his ex-wife. Thinking about it made him feel awkward, but he would do anything for the woman he loved, including ignoring his pride.
"Bells, trust me. I will take care of Tristan. There is no need to worry about him," Sean smiled warmly, but his gloomy gaze seemed to betray him. Bella could see it, but she pretended not to notice.
"I trust you," She said while burying herself into his warm embrace once more.
They hugged until Sean had to say goodbye and return to his base.
Sean had to leave immediately, or he would face this country’s military court for neglecting his duties.
...
After Sean left, Bella rushed to her president’s suitroom. She suddenly felt sleepy and exhausted after so many happened today.
Her family’s harsh welcome and Sean’s sudden confession make her feel emotionally exhausted. She needs to replenish her energy before facing her son, or her brilliant son will read everything from her expression.
When Bella entered their president suite, she didn’t see anyone in the living room. She quickly checked Dax’s bedroom, only to find him fast asleep under his covers. After she ensured the blanket covered his body, she let him sleep a little longer.
Before heading to her bedroom, Bella checked Aunty Noora’s room. She could only smile when she saw that she was also asleep.
Bella threw herself onto the mattress when she saw the clean and soft bed.
It didn’t take long; she immediately fell asleep.
****
Diamond Restaurant.
This restaurant is located on the fifth floor of the hotel building.
Bella decided to have their first family dinner in the country at this restaurant because she felt too lazy to go out. It’s freezing outside — it’s snowing right now.
After making a reservation one hour before, they walk there. Surprisingly, the restaurant was so crowded that almost no seats were left.
There were only a few tables left, and she was thankful enough to have made a reservation beforehand. The waitress led them to the best table with a city view.
They enjoyed their light dinner while chatting. Bella told Dax and Noora about her plan for tomorrow. They will visit Lake Village, where her grandpa lives.
Noora and Dax were both surprised to know that, especially Dax.
He places his cutlery on the plate and wipes his mouth with a napkin before he fixes his gaze on his mother, who continues to talk to Noora.
