Bella Woods sat silently in the car, feeling a sense of absurdity and irony at that moment.
She felt like an outsider in a play, witnessing the reunion of people who once loved each other, with an exchange of glances she couldn't even breathe into.
Bella herself didn't know how much time had passed until Nina Sutton seemed to come back to her senses, discreetly wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes, and glanced at Bella.
"You've got things here; I think I should just..."
Nina turned to leave when Ashton Marshall suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm, "Wait a moment."
He looked down and dialed a phone number, and soon a black business car drove up and stopped at the side. Tim Season stepped out of the car.
"I happened to be handling some things nearby," Tim explained, pausing when he saw Nina Sutton, "Why are you still..."
His words abruptly stopped as he looked between Ashton and Bella in the car.
