Isaac stopped talking when he saw a black Maybach approaching them and stopping a few meters away.
"Who!?" Bella’s eyes narrowed as she looked at the car. Her heart started to beat faster. She was nervous.
"That, of course, my best friend Lewis," Isaac said as he gently patted Bella on the shoulder before he walked towards the car. He greeted Lewis warmly, "My friend, Lewis... Why did you come late? I thought you changed your mind again."
They embrace each other while laughing.
"Hahaha, Isaac... No…no…I know I’m not late, alright!" Lewis said, pushing Isaac aside briefly to see Bella. "Why do you look so shocked, Bella?" Lewis asked.
"G-Grandpa, I’m so surprised to see you here. Yesterday, you refused my offer, but why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Lewis Sinclair laughed at Bella’s confused expression. "I just wanted to surprise you, dear..."
"This old geezer always pulls pranks like this, Bella. Next time, whenever this old geezer tells you something, believe the opposite," Isaac said jokingly, but with a deadpan face while shaking his head.
"How could I stay here and let you play with Dax alone?" Lewis answered, narrowing his eyes at Isaac. "I won’t allow that... Isaac... I’m moving to the capital."
"Do whatever you want. Just don’t move into our house," Isaac chuckled.
"Hahaha, I’ll buy land near your house. No worries... You’re going to see me around a lot."
Bella, "..."
It seems Bella’s peaceful life won’t remain peaceful for long.
She silently took a deep breath while maintaining her Mona Lisa smile, watching the two older men she respected the most chatting—it sounded like they were in agreement, but they actually weren’t.
"Grandpa, I’m glad you finally decided to move..." Bella walked over to him and put her arm around him. "Dax will be happy," she said, glancing at the plane. Her son and Noora had been on board since earlier.
"Alright, let’s go now," Lewis said.
They all boarded the jet and flew to the capital.
***
While in the Capital.
Tristan received a call from Max when he was about to go down to his office. He picked up the call while walking to the elevator.
"Good morning, boss," Max’s urgent tone could be heard.
"What is it!?"
"Boss, you need to see something I found out. This is about Ms. Bella..."
Hearing Bella’s name was enough to make Tristan fasten his step. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Master, breakfast?" Geoffrey said as he followed Tristan to the elevator.
Tristan didn’t answer, but his gaze seemed to tell him that there were essential things more important than breakfast.
Geoffrey no longer said anything other than immediately pressing the elevator button and letting him enter.
The lift is open on the 39th floor.
Dylan, already waiting for him, led him to the control room.
The room was filled with high-tech computers, acting as a command center, and could access CCTV in the entire building. Besides, the room also has Max’s office as the IT director for Sinclair Corp.
