Chapter 168: Surprised to See Someone
If the superjet was in Daxton’s name, Tristan was sure Bella would use it whenever she wanted to go on a business trip.
He planned to give his wife a jet but used their son’s name. Because he knew Bella would refuse if he gave it to her directly.
“Yes, Sir. I will expedite the arrangement.”
“I expect no less from you, Albert,” Tristan responded, climbing into his car.
He hates that he returned home alone today. But he must fly to Singapore tomorrow morning for an appointment with the Prime Minister of Singapore and accompany them in inspecting the newly built super-efficient water and waste treatment facility that Sinclair’s Group has built and operated. But he doesn’t really care about his new promising ventures.
He only cares about completing his Singapore trip as soon as possible and joining his family in Nova City.
And for that, he felt excited and couldn’t help but smile.

Nova City.
Bella and the others arrived at Nova City at six in the evening.
When they arrive at the beach villa, Bella realizes that they are not staying at the Villa that Leo had rented but rather at Tristan’s Villa.
Although surprised, she opted not to voice her concern as the Villa that Leo booked for her only had three bedrooms, which would not be sufficient to accommodate her entire entourage.
The sky was already dark. Bella couldn’t see the view from the area near the Villa.
Even so, she could see the garden lights illuminating the surroundings and making them look pretty. She could faintly hear the waves crashing and guessed the beach was nearby. This would be perfect because Dax could play on the beach without any worries.
After ensuring that Dax and Noora exited the car, Bella followed them. However, before she could fully stand on her feet, she was shocked by what she saw.
‘Geoffrey? Why did he come here? He’s supposed to be with Tristan, right?’
Bella was speechless when she saw Geoffrey instructing several workers to load their luggage and help Isaac and Lewis to enter the Villa.
When she saw Geoffrey approach them, she couldn’t help but ask, “I was surprised to see you here. Is there any particular reason, Geoffrey?”
“Welcome to the Sinclair’s beach house, Young Madam and Young Master,” Geoffrey greeted Bella and Dax with a polite smile.
He explained to Bella that Tristan had instructed him to prepare the beach villa to be ready when Bella and Dax arrived. So, he flew here the day before.
“Hello, teacher Geoff…” Dax smiled at Geoffrey with a wink; he knew Geoffrey had already flown to this place through their Cupid Alliance group chat.
“Young Master, Young Lady, please follow me inside…” Geoffrey beckoned them. She said nothing else and followed them into the house.
The expansive Villa boasted six main bedrooms, ensuring each had its own space.
Bella and Dax were assigned rooms on the second floor. Bella gets the primary and most spacious bedroom with an unobstructed beach view. Dax gets the smaller ones adjacent to Bella’s room, which has a beach, pool, and garden view. The elders will use the guest rooms on the first floor, as the rooms are the closest rooms to the living and dining room.
The living and dining rooms are located in one big hall. It is also the most extensive section of the Villa. Geoffrey surprises them with delicious food and drinks when they arrive at the living and dining room. He also politely insists Bella, Dax, and the elders have dinner before anything else.
…
After a lovely dinner, the elder excused themself as they needed to stretch their backs and probably get some sleep early.
Bella accompanied Dax to his room. When they arrived, she saw Noora unpacking Dax’s suitcase.
“Auntie, you should have dinner first…” Bella felt sorry to see her work so hard.
Noora paused and looked at Bella, “I think I will pass dinner, Miss. I’m still full from eating a lot of chocolate cakes and cheesecakes on the plane.”

“Aunty, why do I remember differently? I saw you eat not only cakes but also steak, spaghetti, and whatever the flight attendants offer,” Dax said casually as he sat on the sofa in the corner.
“Oh, please, young master. Didn’t you promise when we were on the plane not to embarrass me if I helped you finish your cakes?” Noora was speechless.
Dax only smiled slightly but remained silent, gazing out the window, attempting to glimpse the beach. However, all he could see was a garden and a swimming pool. Despite this, he felt enthusiastic and looked forward to observing the scenery behind the Villa the following day.
Bella chuckled upon hearing their words. She let Noora continue to arrange Dax’s belongings and looked around the room.
There was a massive glass wall with a sea view, but she couldn’t see the sea then. She could only hear the waves crushing the rock in the distance.
Bella glances at her son, now looking bored on the sofa. She approached him and sat beside him.
“Baby… if you can’t sleep alone, you can come to my room,” she said while ruffling her smooth hair.
“Mom, I’m not a child. I’m an adult…”
Bella feels amused hearing his words.
“Well, you’re still my baby in my eyes,” she said with a smile as she kissed his cheek. “Alright, go wash up and change into your pajamas.” After Dax settled, Bella left.
Her bedroom is adjacent to Dax’s room, with a small lounge area in between that has a beach view and a veranda.
Before entering her bedroom, Bella checked the veranda and was surprised to see stairs leading to the garden. These stairs lead to the infinity pool and the path to the beach.
‘Gosh, what a beautiful place. Has Tristan ever come to this place? Why did he never bring me here?’ Bella wondered, feeling gloomy, remembering their past marriage. She shivered as the cold sea wind blew, pulling her back from her thoughts.
