"Do you know why my mother hates you so much?"
Suddenly, Bella lost her smile, replaced with the stiffness that now frames her face.
She knew the exact reason why her mother-in-law despised her so much.
But how could she tell Tristan that his mother attempted to kill his Grandma? Even though she didn't kill her directly, Jessica's actions led to Tristan's Grandma's death.
Bella felt torn between telling the truth or keeping silent.
She could picture that if Tristan or William Sinclair knew about it, they might kick Jessica out of the family. Knowing his mother is capable of making such an evil plan, and Bella believes she likely did it, Tristan would undoubtedly have a broken heart.
'How could I expose that?' Bella was puzzled.
After thinking for a few more seconds, she fixed her gaze on him.
