Chapter 442 Go All In

Bella let out a quiet sigh of relief as she agreed to Carla's terms and headed out with Lia.

Knowing Carla would likely watch from the window, the two first played it safe by strolling around the neighborhood. After what felt like an eternity, they finally slipped out unnoticed. They were 20 minutes late when they arrived at the café where Sean was waiting.

Sean had dressed down in a casual black blazer that wasn't overly formal but still gave him a polished air. Combined with his striking hair color, he was undeniably eye-catching.

As Bella sat, she smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry. Something came up, and I got held up. I hope you didn't wait too long."

Sean shrugged it off, a playful smirk on his face. "No worries. If it's you, I could wait forever."

Under the table, Lia nudged Bella's foot, signaling her to get to the point. Then, Lia stood up, claiming she needed the restroom, though she was actually heading to the door to keep watch and ensure that Carla hadn't followed them. Once Lia left, Bella took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts.

Sean seemed to sense she had something on her mind and spoke first. "You don't need to tiptoe around me. Just say it. I'm not a kid. I can handle it. Honestly, if you hadn't called me, I was planning to reach out to you. I'm heading back overseas soon to continue my studies. Who knows when we'll see each other again?"
