With a satisfied and proud smile, Tristan looked for Bella. He saw her sitting on the sofa near the glass window on the other side of the room.
Her eyes stared at him sharply, making Tristan confused.
All kinds of questions now appeared in his mind, trying to guess why Bella’s mood suddenly slid below freezing point.
Why does she seem so upset?
Is she jealous that I didn’t give her a gift, too?
Tristan immediately patted his forehead, realizing his mistake. Supposedly, he also prepared a special gift for her, right!?
Sigh!
He approached Bella and joined her, sitting on the sofa opposite her. He smiled gently at her, but she didn’t flinch at all.
"I know why you look at me like that, Bella. Well, for that, I will apologize to you... Forgive me." He said sincerely.
This is the only way to make her less angry. Apologized.
His mind is busy planning to ask Dylan for the right gift idea for Bella later. He had plenty of ideas but was afraid she didn’t like them.
While Tristan was lost in his own thoughts, Bella took a deep sigh inwardly.
She is still shocked to know Tristan gave Dax such a complete and sophisticated computer room as a welcoming gift.
A few months ago, she refused Dax’s request because she worried her son was still too young to have a sophisticated computer room.
Bella had planned to grant Dax’s wish when he was older, but Tristan gave this computer room to their son without consulting her. This is annoying!
"Come on, Bella... Can you smile? I already apologized," Tristan said when he saw Bella still looking at him, annoyed.
"I promise I will choose the best gift for you. Don’t be angry with me again, huh!?" He continues his words, trying to coax her.
However, Tristan’s words actually made Bella even more puzzled. She frowned, looking at him after hearing his words.
’He wanted to choose a gift for me? Did I hear it wrong?’ She narrowed, looking at him.
Upon seeing him smile, Bella attempted to clarify his strange imagination, fearing it would lead to misunderstandings. Again!
"What are you trying to say? Why do you want to buy me a gift?" Bella began to question whether Tristan had misunderstood her irritation.
A frown appeared on Tristan’s face, and for a while, he seemed to be thinking about why she was still annoyed.
He looked her in the eyes, "Aren’t you jealous that I gave Dax a present and you didn’t?"
Bella, "...."
’Oh lord! This man’s imagination was indeed weird. How could he think I’m annoyed because of a trivial thing like a gift?’
"But now, you give him this room without consulting me. This makes me slightly worried. Tristan, if you want to do this again, please discuss it with me first?"
Tristan nodded in response to her question. He could sense her worry, but he also needed to explain why he gave the gift to Dax.
"Bella, I’m sorry I didn’t discuss this big thing with you. However, I hope you want to hear my explanation too..."
She didn’t utter anything but slight nods. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
"When I heard you say that our son likes playing games, he even has a laptop. I immediately planned to make this room for him. Because I thought it would be better if he had this room and someone would accompany him to explore his hobby rather than letting him play alone..."
He continued, "And when you said earlier that our son was interested in learning computers since... I was happy because my idea matched his interests. And you saw the man with him, right?"
Bella nodded while glancing at Dax and the man seated beside him.
"He’s a computer expert in programming, so he will teach Dax..." Tristan felt relieved when he saw her expression slowly change. She was no longer as annoyed as before.
"So, are you still mad at me because of this?"
Bella could understand Tristan’s point of view and agreed with him; Tristan merely wanted to guide Dax towards the correct path, with the assistance of a professional who could help him explore his hobby and potential.
"No. I should say thank you for this one," She returned his smile before continuing. "—But, Tristan, in the future, you must talk to me about everything related to Dax."
The corners of his lips lift, revealing a warm smile before he responds, "Of course, Bella. I will remember that—"
