He frowned, looking at her.
"Can you explain why you haven't announced your marriage to Laura Kiels?"
Tristan's face turned stiff as he heard Bella's question.
'Why would she assume I'm married to Laura? Did Mother tell her that? To make her angry!?' He wonders.
After a few seconds of thinking, suddenly, everything clicked into place. From their first encounter at Sushi Tei, Bella's cynical demeanor now made sense to him.
'She must be jealous, right?'
Tristan gazed into Bella's eyes, trying to find any trace of jealousy in them. At the same time, Bella was looking at him, and a frown appeared on her forehead as she seemed pondering something.

A charming-warm smile slowly appeared on Tristan's lips when he saw confusion flash through her gaze.
