In the middle of the night, Charles White couldn't fall asleep.
He got out of bed and lit a cigarette by the window, enveloped in smoke. He always thought he liked Elyssa Scott, but he couldn't understand why, when he was with Elyssa, he would occasionally think of Bella Scott.
Even just now, in their most intimate moment, he had a sudden illusion that it was Bella by his side.
He was so startled at that time, feeling as if he had gone mad...

Bella had played at the shooting range for another hour and suddenly realized it was getting late. It was time for her to go home and clock in for work.
She left the shooting range with Kory Young, who insisted on escorting her home. He said he felt guilty for taking her money but not doing anything for her.
Of course, Bella couldn't let Kory send her home either.
If Edward Anderson saw her interacting with a strange man, he would definitely take the opportunity to ridicule her. She didn't want to dig her own grave.
