Jade couldn't help but laugh at their playful antics.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the lobby, and someone exclaimed, "It's Bella! It's Bella!"

All eyes turned in the direction of Bella, who was dressed in white and walking toward the lobby like a fairy descending on Earth. Wherever she went, crowds of reporters and onlookers gathered. Despite the efforts of her assistants and bodyguards, enthusiastic fans couldn't be stopped.

Melanie and Cooper quickly snapped out of their bickering, both chiming in before Jade, "Of course you can."
