48 Meet Dax
-How long will you stay in this country?
asked Lewis Sinclair.
He was worried that Bella would only stay in the country for a short time and his grandson would not have the
chance to apologize to her and pursue her
again.
-I’m not going anywhere, grandpa. My plan is to settle in the capital.
-Oh? She didn’t know that. -Lewis Sinclair was surprised. He thought that Bella would no longer return to the capital and would stay in this province with her family.
-Yeah. I’m only here for about a week. -She didn’t want to hide anything from Grandpa Sinclair, fearing that he would be disappointed.
again.
Bella also wanted this old man to stop punishing his family and hide in this remote place. She was worried that something terrible had happened to him because he was no longer young.

A wrinkle appeared on Lewis’s forehead, as if he was thinking about something, knowing that Bella would return to the capital.
-And for that reason, I asked you to return to the capital. There’s no point in staying here alone and you won’t have any friends to talk to either.
Lewis was a little confused when he heard Bella’s words. However, when he remembered his promise to Tristan—he would return if Tristan managed to bring Bella into his family—he shook his head. He had to stay here; If he came back now, Tristan wouldn’t rush to follow Bella.
Lewis smiled warmly before calmly saying:
-It’s okay, Bella. They all won’t learn anything if I go back now. I’ll just stay here for a few years and then return to the capital.
Trying to convince him to return to the capital is useless if he doesn’t want to. Therefore, Belle leaves him aside and can only wish him good health during his stay in the village.
-You don’t need to worry about me, dear. I won’t be alone here; I have Alan and my best friend, Isaac.

You know that your grandfather also decided to stay in this town, right? -Lewis asked.
Bella was surprised to hear what she heard. Her grandfather had not informed Lewis of his intention to move in with them.
Watching how delighted Grandpa Lewis was that his best friend would be staying in this town, Bella began to feel sorry for him.
“Grandpa Sinclair, my grandfather, decided to move to the capital with us…” Bella said weakly.
Suddenly, the light in Lewis Sinclair’s eyes slowly dimmed upon hearing the news. -It’s true what you say? Why didn’t Isaac tell me anything? -The disappointment was clearly heard in his voice.
-Yes, grandfather. Maybe because he just decided this morning, he didn’t have the chance to inform you.
-By the way, where is Isaac? Why hasn’t he joined us yet? -Lewis felt strange because his friend, who usually welcomed him, had not been seen anywhere since he had entered.
to the house.
Have you gone somewhere? -Nero asked again.

He dismissed that idea instantly because he saw Isaac’s car still parked outside.
Without realizing it, Bella, with her hands resting in her lap, slowly clenched them into fists. She was
nervous about where to start explaining to him about Dax.
-Isaac, did he really return to the city? -Lewis fixed his gaze on Bella.
She shook her head:
-No. She was fishing in the lake.
-Incredible! -Lewis Sinclair looked amused-. That old cheapskate, how could he go fishing in this cold right after being discharged from the hospital?
Lewis decided to join Isaac at the lake and would talk to Bella later. -Bella, I would like to invite you to dinner at my house tomorrow. I hope you don’t reject.
Despite her worry about her meeting Tristan there, she still nods. -I’ll go, grandpa.
-Perfect, dear… -Lewis prepared to
get up, wanting to reach Isaac in the lake.
We can continue talking tomorrow; I need to scold

Isaac.
-Grandpa, please stay. “There’s something I want to ask you,” Bella stopped him. She still hadn’t finished talking to him.
Lewis was surprised; He sat back down and looked at Bella, “Yes, dear?”
“Grandpa, I hope you don’t tell Tristan or anyone else about my arrival in this country,” Bella asked seriously, which left Lewis a little stunned.
Lewis also heard Isaac warning him about this matter when he called him yesterday, but hearing the words directly from her worried him – his grandson’s chances of winning Bella’s heart were paper thin.
-Do you hate him so much that you don’t want to meet him again? -You could hear the sadness in her voice, followed by a deep, heavy sigh.
-I’m just not ready to see it. I -She opened her mouth to continue her words, but somehow, her words just faded away. She feels blank. How annoying!
-Oh. my dear Bella… You don’t need to explain.
“I can understand and agree to your request,” Lewis said softly. Although he was actually disappointed by Bella’s refusal to meet her grandson, he didn’t want to force her. It was still too early. As long as Bella stays in this country, her grandson would still have plenty of time to get close to her.

Bella felt relieved.
-And… there is something else I want to tell you, grandfather. -Bella continued,
“Yes, what is it, dear?”

-In fact I have –
-Mommy… -Suddenly, Dax’s voice could be heard from behind, and his step quickened towards the living room.

Bella was surprised. She looked in the direction of the back door and saw her chubby little son running towards her while carrying a small bucket.
-Look… look… I caught some fish. I won, mommy… Grandpa loses -Dax stopped when he saw someone else in the room. He was slightly stunned when her eyes met his intense blue eyes.

of the older man looking at him.
Dax frowned before turning his gaze to his
mother.
Bella was speechless.
“B-Bella, who is this?” Lewis, who was still surprised to hear a boy calling Bella Mommy, was even more surprised when he saw that the boy looked like someone he knew.
Bella smiled weakly at Old Sinclair before wanting to answer him. She felt Dax’s small hand grasping

-Mom, I need to talk to you. Please
