Suddenly, Bell felt Xander's hand on her shoulder. He probably knows that the way General Oblonsky called the descendants will formally sign his death certificate. So Xander has to control Bell before she loses her control and makes the mistake of showing the man what Bell could do.
Bell continued to icily glare at the man in front of him. That is the first time she showed emotion ever since she sat on that armchair and General Oblonsky couldn't stand it. He looked at Xander instead.
He thought that Bell was just angry because the freaks that he called were missing but he was oblivious that she was angry at him because of the word freak.
Bell rubbed her palm on her black pencil skirt that hiked above her knee as she crossed her leg over the other.
