Chapter 52 Blind Date

Once she was back in her he shower, Bela opened the gift base from the Sawyer family

11 was a necklace, and the owl-shaped sapphire surrounded by diamonds made her realize just how vahudile it was. It made her delay

Bella took a photo of it and sent it to, hoping to replace out the price. Usually, she was still up at this hour. Sure enough, tia got back to her right away.

After reading her reply, she couldn't believe that the necklace was go thousand dollars. Bella couldn't help but deel that the Sawyers were very generous

She had no idea what came over her, but she told Lia that she was thinking about getting into a serious relationship. Maybe it was just a passing thought, or perhaps she was feeling lonely, but she wanted to give asht Lockherously and promised to introduce her to someone trustworthy.

The next moming. Bella had completely forgotten about last night's cursation. To her surprise, a few days later, is actually came to Holh to see her, and she brought along her "bind dor".

She was dumbfounded when she learned the news. She had never been on a blind date or had a serious relationship before, and the whole arrangement felt way the top

As she was about to fish her shift, La told her she was waiting for her at the hospital entrance with someone.

Since Bella hadn't put on makeup that day and was dressed casually, she had to sh to the tram to apply some lipstick and try to look a lemore alive

As soon as she emerged from the hospital, she felt a little awkward. When she noticed it was only, she breathed a sigh of relief and walked up to her.

"Where's the pay you brought she asked.

"Are you that eager to meet him? Lis asked with a cheeky smile.

Bellagged at the corner of her lips. "Didn't you say he was from ovelle? What's his name? It's a bit rude to leave him hanging, don't you think? I feel like we should at least offer himmel since you brought him here."

La linked arms with her and teased, "He's waiting for us at the restaurant. Let's go."

On the way there, went on and on about how great that man was, but Bellacouldn't master open a shred of interest

She couldn't stop thinking about Dominic. It was as if he had cast a speller her beam, making it impossible for her to open up to anyone else. She was well aware of that, but she

chised to give in, so she forced herself to give it a shot

After arriving at the restant, she stopped in her tracks and took several deep benaths, as if she was making in important decision. Then, she walked in.

It was upscale restaurant with a nice ambiance just the kind of placed

waved her hand at someone when Bella booked over, he stopped dead in her tracks and seled Lia's arm. "Are you kidding me?"

Worried that

might back out, held onto the wrist. "Look, you're alwady here. Thonestly think you up a perfect for each other. I just told him about your situation, and he immediately dropped everything to travel the way from Joville to meet you can't you see how he fork about you?" Bellastarted idees. She couldn't believe that the blind date in had set her up with was Felix

La continued, "If you had said yes when he confessed his feelings back then, none of this would've happened. Why don't you give him a chance? if things don't work out, you can jest part ways amicably. But if it does, it'll be a happy ending to love that shouldhavebeen."
