"...Friends? Best friends? You and I?"
Rita took aback from the sudden change of Isabella's attitude.
She quickly let her go and tried to create little distance between them but Isabella moved quickly and grabbed her both shoulders to prevent her from going away.
Seeing the over excited nearly drooling face of Isabella Rita starts to regret choosing Isabella but now it's too late to step back.
How could she step back when Isabella had the tight grip on her, So she had to bite her tongue and question her.
It's best to know what is going on in her head to prevent her from embarrassing her in front of her man.
"Of course you, Only a best friend, reach out a helping hand in their dire situation."
Isabella excitedly hugged Rita as she started babbling to her.
She was ashamed and anxious to face Alex because of what was happening between him and her son Nathan.
The bad blood between them was also affecting her to stay neutral.
