Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 416

Bella chuckled, "I've got a flight tonight for a gig, but before I head out, I wanted to grab dinner with you. For some reason, I just feel a kind of instant kinship with you."

"I'd be honored," I replied with a smile.

Truth be told, there was something about Bella that I couldn't quite put my finger on.

Comforting, somehow.

As evening approached, I wrapped up my work and, after giving Christine a heads up, I grabbed my bag and left the office.

For convenience's sake, we ended up choosing the same five-star hotel as last time.

When I arrived, there were bodyguards outside, but Bella and her agent were already waiting in the private dining room.

Bella gestured for me to sit beside her. "Order whatever you like," she said.

After settling in, I smiled and replied, "Sure thing. I'm pretty familiar with RiverCity's specialties. Any dietary restrictions I should know about?"

"Nothing in particular. Just, not too spicy. My daughter prefers milder flavors. She's upstairs packing with her assistant but will join us soon."

"Got it," I said, knowing just what to choose.

I quickly made our selections and handed the menu back to the waiter.

Suddenly, Bella's agent, Ivy, handed me her phone. "Bella, check out this property in Vista Town. Summer loves Vista Town. What about getting her a place there as a birthday gift?"
