"A-Aunty Emma?" Bella muttered under her breath as she grabbed Tristan's arm, too shocked to see her aunt in their house.
Worried that Aunty Emma was not the only one who had come, she looked around to check but didn't see anyone else—only Grandpa Sinclair and Aunty Noora were in the room.
Feeling relieved that her uncles and father were not there, Bella looked at Tristan, who seemed calm beside her. She narrowed her eyes, suspecting he knew about Aunt Emma's arrival, but hid it from her.
"Did you know about this?" she asked him barely audibly; only he could hear her.
Tristan lowered his gaze, looked at her, and shook his head. "No. Like you, I'm also shocked to see your aunty here..." He whispers.
She doubted it because his expression remained calm, and she saw no surprise in his eyes.
"Hubby, did my aunty come with anyone?"
"No. She's come alone—" Tristan pressed his lips tightly, realizing he had answered wrongly. Damn!
