To Get Reckless
Pouting, Bella sat with them and mumbled out her reason to be there. "I want to ask if I can go with you… I mean, I just want to accompany you on your way to Ebodia to keep you safe, but Brother is against it," she admitted. "Can you help me convince him, please? I don't know when you'll come back, so I at least want to spend as much time with you during the journey to Ebodia as possible."
"Is it because Osman will handle the convoy?" Jayra directly pointed out.
Xenia fought the urge to chuckle once she saw how red Bella's face was becoming.
"Of course not!" Bella quickly denied it. Her tone then quickly deflated as she added, "That's not the main reason, but I won't hide the fact that it's one factor…"
"I'll help you then," Xenia interrupted, winking at Bella as she watched the woman's face brighten up. Well, it was the least she could do for her friend Osman after everything he had done for her.
