Bella Scott didn't expect Charles White to act so quickly: "Ah, you didn't even have a plane ticket yet—"
They had just sat down and hadn't even started eating.
"You just need to bring yourself," Charles was a man of action.
On the way to the airport, he had already booked their flight to Philadelphia.
Bella could have stopped him, but she didn't do anything. Perhaps she also wanted to consider her life's path before getting married.
She informed her family and explained the situation to her two children, who understood her.
When they flew back to Philadelphia, it was already late at night.
Charles knew her well and took her back to Gray's Mansion.
As soon as they opened the door and stepped inside, the dusty air hit Bella's face, making her nose sting and her eyes redden slightly.
She had lived in this mansion for over twenty years, but the people she loved and hated had all left, leaving her alone.
