Belle was happy to be served her dinner in her chamber. She couldn't help but smile in satisfaction when Farrah brought her meal and told her that unfortunately, her husband had to leave for some important matters and wouldn't be able to join her for dinner.
Farrah had looked crestfallen when delivering this message, as if she expected Belle to also be disappointed, but what the girl did not know was that Belle had hoped to avoid him until she thought of a way to get back her ring or to never even come face to face with him again.
Belle ate her dinner immediately after she was done bathing, where strangely, even after the bath and the warm chamber, she did not feel warm enough. She spoke with Farrah and got to know that the girl had little siblings who were also sold out from the slave establishment, and she hoped to see them one day. She also hoped they had not fallen prey to the wrong night creatures.
