Later, curious Dax suddenly chimed in, "Mom, why don't you celebrate your birthday?"
Natalie and Noora are also curious. They both look at Bella, who smiles back at them.
"How could we celebrate when I have just lost your Grandpa? Besides, you know I never celebrated my birthday." Bella said before she lowered her head and continued eating, trying to hide her sadness.
"True," Noora gloomily comments.
Natalie, upon hearing this, also feels sad. She knows that since childhood, her daughter has only celebrated her birthday twice. After that, they only have dinner with family members every time on her birthday. Remembering those times, she feels wronged because she never gives Bella happy memories on her birthday.
The room becomes silent as they all continue to finish their lunch.
However, not long after, sensing the room's gloomy vibe, Bella tries to divert the conversation. She looks at her mother and asks, "Mom, how's Henry?"
