Just One Chance, Bella

Damian doesn't like what he sees. On his phone are several photos of Bella with Brandon on campus and at the cafe. They look romantic, and Bella looks happy to be around Brandon.

Damian sighs deeply. His hand gripping the phone tightens. Arabella's relationship with Jullius must not end like this. And he is determined to make sure it doesn't happen.

"I don't care if I have to defy the master's orders," he says firmly.

The next day, Brandon comes to pick up Bella. Bella looks surprised as Brandon is already standing in front of her car, he who was playing with his phone immediately shifts his gaze to Bella.

"Brandon?" she calls out, sounding confused.

Brandon smiles at her. He approaches Bella. "Are you ready?" Brandon asks.

Bella nods. "But I didn't ask you to pick me up. I was going to take the train," Bella says. Her words seem to politely reject Brandon's arrival. But Brandon is not offended.

"Right. This is my initiative," he replies. Creating more furrows on Bella's forehead.
