Bella felt terribly ashamed, so she could only nodded, "Then I'll go back now. Thank you for the dinner." Watching her slender figure disappear out of the door, Ben relaxed his tense breath.
They were so close just now that he could smell her faint fragrance when he treated her wound. She came over after shower, and she smelt so good. The fragrance was seductive and he had to suppress the heat inside. But now, he realized that he couldn't hold it back any more. Fortunately, she didn't find out, otherwise, she would have accused him of being a pervert.
Bella went back home and leaned against the door. Her tension finally relaxed. She felt that Ben was too good to her, so good that she suspected he was up to something.
"Does he like me?" Bella guessed boldly.
"No, no, no. I'm definitely not his cup of tea. That night he saw mother and I go catch father and Rosia in bed, he must have laughed at me." Disquieting thoughts kept surging in Bella's mind, and her heart was like dangling in the air. Anyway, she dared not talk about love now, even that was Ben. She was afraid to fall into the abyss of love.
In the evening, the sky that had been clear for a few days suddenly erupted with a loud thunder. In an instant, a violent storm broke out. The strong wind slammed fiercely against the window. Bella covered her ears in fear and curled up into a ball. She had been afraid of thunders since she was small, and the scene of the sky being torn apart by lightnings at night gave her a dooming fear.
Bella stayed awake, counting every thunder, which exploded on the roof in the beginning, and then faded away. She tensed up until the thunders died down, and then she fell asleep.
The next morning, Bella went to school. Ada was standing at the gate with books in her arms, looking down. When she saw Bella, she ran over to greet her.
"Bella, you were drunk that day. Was there anything wrong?" Ada asked with concern.
"It's fine, thanks to Mr. William, he took care of me." Bella smiled and shook her head.
"So you stayed at Mr. William's that night?" Ada sensitively discovered this fact. Was it really true that nothing had happened when they were alone in the same room?
Bella blushed as she stammered, "Yes, I didn't take my bag that day and I had no place to go. He put me up for the night."
Ada smiled and made an ambiguous gesture, "Tell me, did you …"
Bella was too embarrassed to raise her head. She shook her head hastily, "No, don't say that. Mr. William is a decent man."
"Really? Then Mr. William is really a gentleman." Ada felt that Bella was not lying. Based on her understanding of Bella these years, if she said that she did not, then she definitely did not. If she did, Bella would not answer her question directly.
"That's right. Fortunately, I was with him." Bella sighed.
Ada's expression changed. For some reason, Bella's words gave her a feeling that she was relying on Ben. Ada was unhappy with that.
"Bella, let's go. It's almost class time." Ada urged.
Just as Bella was about to enter the school with her, a red sports car suddenly drove past. The car was very eye—catching and the students at the gate were attracted. It was the dream car of young people.
