As the compliments continued to flow, Bella savored the attention, relishing her role as the esteemed
Mrs. Wild.
The two siblings stood at a balcony watching cars drive into the place.
“There’s gonna be a party downstairs,” Liam explained to his sister. Daisy’s eyes lit up at the mere
mention of a party.
“For the opening of the school. That’s where it would be held,” he continued, providing more details. novelbin
The excitement grew in Daisy’s eyes.
“Should we go see?” Liam asked, gauging his sister’s interest. Daisy’s imagination sparked.
“I’ve never been to a party like that. I’m sure the women are very pretty,” Daisy mused, envisioning the
festivities.
“Let’s go see,” Liam suggested, and Daisy cagerly nodded in agreement.
“Where is Ethan?” Bella mused to herself.
He had left early that morning for work but still hadn’t shown up at the event.
With a glass in one hand, she excused herself when her phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, she
decided it couldn’t be ignored. She gracefully maneuvered through the crowd, searching for a secluded
spot where she could take the call in private.
Once she found a quiet hidden corner, she answered the call with anticipation. “Did you find anything?”
she inquired eagerly, hoping for Sebastian’s findings on the information she had requested.
“Barely, just the normal routine of her going to work and back. Honestly, she’s quite boring, if you ask
me.” Sebastian’s nonchalant response filtered through. Bella sighed, a hint of frustration evident in her
voice. “I don’t think she knows anything,” he added.
“But she was there that night, wasn’t she?” Bella questioned, in exasperation.
Bella’s impatience was evident as she pressed Sebastian for more information. “You said you saw her,
didn’t you?” she questioned, irritation coloring her tone.
Sebastian hesitated slightly before responding, “I might have been mistaken.” Trying to downplay the
significance.
“If she actually knew something, she would have taken some steps by now,” he reasoned calmly. “Like
contracting you to blackmail or something else, don’t you think?” he added, trying to bring a logical
perspective to the situation.
Bella sighed, acknowledging the rationale behind Sebastian’s words. “Who is she exactly?” Bella
inquired.
“You’ve refused to tell me her name, but I think I deserve the right to know. What’s her name?” Bella
had asked him about the mystery woman several times, but Sebastian remained tight-l*pped,
seemingly protective of the girl. “What is her name?” she probed once again.
Jasmine Knowles, Sebastian replied from the other end.
“Jasmine Knowles,” Bella repeated, contemplating. “I don’t know any Knowles,” she stated, struggling
to recall.
“This is dragging on too long, what does she know?!” Bella demanded, her impatience resurfacing.
“Calm down, would you?” Sebastian urged, attempting to pacify her. “I believe she was there that
night,” he finally admitted.
“But?” Bella queried, sensing there what happened that night.”

“But nothing,” he replied, signaling his own reservations. He hadn’t seen Jasmine as a threat to Bella,
and he didn’t want to give her that impression. Bella could go ballistic and demand that she be dealt
with. Sebastian observed Jasmine as a simple young woman who seemed to have endured a
challenging life. Why complicate her life even more?

As Bella listened to Sebastian, she heard a sound in the background. She stopped for a moment,
taking the phone off her ear. She had detected someone else’s phone vibrating at a blind spot. Was
someone there? Concerned about a potential eavesdropper, she hung up immediately and slowly
made her way to the place she heard the noise.
She sighed in relief; there was no one there. “I was probably imagining it,” she concluded, brushing off
the unease. She quickly texted Sensation, informing him that he had completed her task. With that
done, she picked up her glass from where she had set it down and gracefully made her way out of the
balcony.
“Daisy, Daisy, slow down,” Liam called, chasing after his enthusiastic sister. Daisy, however, continued
running and accidentally collided with someone. The glass in Bella’s hand jolted, causing the wine to
spill onto her dress.
“Ugggh!” Bella exclaimed in annoyance, her frustration evident. “You brat!” she yelled, her gaze now
fixed on the young girl responsible for the mishap. Bella’s expensive dress was now stained and
ruined.
