The Truth About Bella's Company

Bella remained silent, feeling the sharp gaze of both of them now fixed on her.

'Gosh, Dax! Can you not expose me again!?' Bella sighed deeply while maintaining her smile before she started eating her breakfast.

Isaac Donovan smiled at Bella, trying to ignore them. He couldn't blame her for being too protective of Dax. She had never taken Dax out of the small village where they had lived for five years, fearing that Sinclair would find out about him.

Isaac cleared his throat to break the awkward silence and told Dax, "When it gets warmer, I can teach you how to swim in the backyard pool."

Dax, looking at Isaac with a calm expression. "It's fine, Gramps. I don't really like physical outdoor sports. I prefer indoor activities, like playing chess or disassembling and assembling any electrical and computer instruments…"

Bella, "..." 

She remained silent, merely continuing to eat her breakfast while listening to their conversation.
