Randy Hill's mood was also very heavy.
Bella Scott still didn't fully understand the situation. Edward Anderson had already made up his mind to break up with her, and no matter how reluctant she was, she couldn't keep him from leaving.
This time, Bella made a point of wearing makeup, as she looked a bit haggard from lack of sleep. Her makeup concealed her vulnerability, and it was her last line of defense.
Perhaps she knew this was the last time she would actively seek him out, so she wanted to leave a good impression on him.
She wanted him to remember her at her best and most beautiful.
Edward Anderson stood in his office, watching Bella approach him.
"Just tell me what's going on; I have something to do later, and I don't have much time," Edward broke the silence.
Bella stood there in silence for a moment. Was he not even willing to give her that little bit of time anymore?
