40 The Curiosity of Dax
After a few minutes, Bella left the restaurant. A man with a black hat looked around worriedly before entering a
black van parked behind the Estrella Hotel. She handed a man next to him a black bag containing used cutlery and glasses from one of her restaurant customers. •
“This is your fee,” the man handed a thick brown envelope to the man in the black hat.
-Sir, I won’t have any problems, right? -the man in the black hat asked after putting the envelope in his jacket pocket.
-Man, everything will be fine. No need to worry!
The man in the black hat breathed a sigh of relief. Actually, this was an easy task for him. However, if his superiors found out what he was doing, they would fire him. But he also couldn’t turn down someone who offered him $10k. He needed money to pay his mother’s hospital bills.

-Well sir. So, I’ll excuse myself now… -The man in the black hat bowed his head slightly before getting out of the van.
After the man in the black hat got out of the car, the man who received the bag was Tristan Sinclair’s assistant Dylan. He looked at Max, who was sitting next to the driver.
-Have you erased our traces? -Dylan didn’t want anyone to notice they were there.
“Don’t worry,” Max said calmly. Then, he looked at the driver. You can move now.

At the same time, when Bella and the others arrived at the suite, her mobile phone rang. Jack was the one who called. He asked Dax to play with Noora before entering her bedroom to answer the call.
“Hello, Jack…” Bella greeted him happily, only to hear his cold response.
“I thought you forgot about me again, Bella,” he said.
-Sorry, boss. She was a little busy here and I forgot

“I’m glad to know you arrived safely,” Jack’s voice became warm. That made Bella smile as she walked towards the large glass window, looking at the busy street below as she chatted.

-Thank you, Jack.
It’s not that big of a deal…
-Did you just want to ask me about this?
-Of course not. Your assistant has arrived in the capital. “He’ll take care of your business in the office before you start work,” Jack explained.
-Oh, did you send someone from the head office? -Bella was surprised.
“It fits your requirements perfectly,” Ack said in his not-so-affectionate tone.
-Who? Do I know him… do I know her? -Bella was curious because her requirements for a personal assistant of hers were quite complicated.
Bella only wanted to cause trouble for Jack because he

-I’m not going to tell you! -He laughed-. You can meet him when you visit the office. When will you start?

-Why are you delaying again? Didn’t you promise me you’d only need a week? -Jack exploded, frustrated by his words.
Bella shook her head smiling:

-Ah, haven’t you finished your words yet? -Yeah.

After the phone call, Bella opened her laptop
searched for information on Tristan Sinclair.
I needed to know the latest news about Tristan
before telling Dax about him.

Dax was wearing his pajamas. He leaned against the headboard while reading something on his iPad – a business interview with the CEO of Sinclair Corp.
A few minutes passed, but I was still focused on the photo of the Sinclair Corp CEO and the CEO’s answers to the interviewer’s questions. The interviewer asked about the CEO’s personal life.
Dax felt strange because it was the first time he
It was in the personal life of a man of leisure. He usually only read about his business success.
Looking into Tristan Sinclair’s blue eyes, Dax senses something interesting about the man. Curious about this man, he opens a browser to search for more details about him.

However, before Dax finished writing his name, his fingers stopped when he heard a knock on the door, followed by his mother’s voice.
-Honey you there?
He put his iPad on the bed and answered, -Yes, Mommy…
Dax watched as she opened the door, but after a few seconds passed, she didn’t say anything and just stood at the door, looking at him with a strange expression.
He asked calmly, “Are you okay, Mom?” Why do you stand at the door and look at me like that?
Bella was stunned upon hearing his question. She tried to focus again on what she wanted to tell him about her father’s family. She needed to do it now before visiting Village Lake tomorrow.
He was worried that Grandpa Sinclair would recognize Dax when they got there and it would cause confusion for Dax.
-Can I come in, Dax? -she asked.
He nods.
“I need to talk to you about something,” Bella said as she walked towards the bed and sat down next to it. His ears

They looked at Dax, who looked confused. -Do you want to know about your father?
Dax’s eyes widened in surprise at his mother’s words. He nodded.
I’d be lying if I said no. She had always wanted to. ask her mother about it, but she didn’t dare to do it for unknown reasons.
His curiosity about his biological father arose a year ago. After she was able to read fluently, she came across a strange article: Reasons Single Mothers Raise Their Children Alone.

In the article, he found several ridiculous reasons. But, two reasons could fit his mother. First, her father had died. Second, his mother got a sperm donor, so she doesn’t have a father.
Dax felt excited, hoping that his mother
