Chapter 360: Reluctant To Leave
A few days after hosting a lunch party, Bella became busy with her mother’s treatment. She planned to personally accompany her mother during the surgery and throughout her recovery period.
However, her responsibility at Quantum Capital left her confused. She couldn’t just leave the company without her care, right? At this time, there were many things she needed to pay attention to.
Surprisingly, when Bella thought she couldn’t take an extended leave, Harper suddenly offered her help. She extended her vacation in this city and would remain in the office during Bella’s absence.
Grateful for Harper’s help, Bella officially took a two-week holiday until her mother’s surgery was completed and she could return to their house.
And tomorrow is the day her mother will have surgery. Although this was not her surgery, Bella was afraid. She was worried that something would happen and endanger her mother’s life.
Dr. Angie Robert, Bella’s mother’s best friend, would become one of the team doctors performing the surgery. She explained the surgery in detail to Bella. She convinced her that the surgery would go smoothly and fast. Still, Bella couldn’t help but feel utterly nervous.
…
“Darling, what time do you leave for the hospital?” Tristan’s voice came from behind, making Bella stop packing the things she would take to the cancer facility.
Bella turned back and saw Tristan walk toward her, struggling to put on his white slim-fit shirt. Seeing his chest exposed enough to make her blood rush, she swallowed silently while walking toward him.
“I decided to leave at the same time as you. So, we can drop you off at the airport before heading to the hospital,” she answered while helping Tristan with the remaining buttons.
After finishing, Bella looked up into his blue eyes. She took a deep breath when she saw it, still the same as before. Sadness flashed through his eyes.
“Mr. Sinclair, why are you still looking gloomy?” Bella asked, remembering they had already discussed it last night.
“I’m really upset with myself. I wanted to be by your side at the hospital, but I have to go abroad for a business trip,” Tristan said as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer. “I wish I could have sent someone else to take my place…”
Bella held back her laugh, hearing his words. She had heard those sentences since last night, and her husband had complained a lot about his work. Now, she knew by heart what he was going to say next.
Feeling exhausted after hearing his words, Bella immediately said, “Hubby, you will only be gone for two nights. When you get back, you can join us.” She tried to coax him out of his sadness.
While her mother was in a cancer facility, Bella and Dax would temporarily stay in a villa in the area until her mother recovered.
The place is beautiful and has luxurious facilities. Staying there feels like being on holiday in the mountains, surrounded by nature.
“I know…” Tristan held her cheeks with both hands while bringing his face closer to hers. Before Bella could say something, he gently kissed her slightly parted lips.
After their lips parted, he continued, “But I don’t want to be far away from you and Dax, even if it’s just for two nights. I hope you two will come with me…”
Bella could understand his wish. However, she didn’t answer him; she rested her head on his chest while wrapping both arms around his waist.
After a few seconds passed, she whispered, “I’m sorry. Even though I want to, my mother’s surgery cannot be postponed. You know that, right?”
Tristan immediately closed his eyes, feeling mad at himself for being too demanding; Bella and Dax followed him on his business trip.
He rested his chin on her head while tightening his arms around her.
“My darling wife, I’m really sorry if I’m too selfish. Alright, I won’t say anything else. I will wrap up my trip faster and return as soon as possible,” he said calmly, hiding his disappointment.
“Thank you, hubby,” Bella smiled as she pressed herself into his arms. “You are the best husband, Tristan Sinclair. Even though you weren’t with us, you provided complete facilities for my mother and us during our stay there.”
Bella is very grateful. She will stay with her mother in the best private hospital, owned by the Sinclair Group.
At first, Bella was hesitant to stay there because it would attract the attention of Tristan’s father and mother. However, after Tristan and Grandpa Lewis convinced her, she finally agreed.
Tristan let go of her hug and moved a little away from her so he could see her face more clearly.
“My darling wife, your mother is my mother too. So, you don’t need to thank me,” Tristan said seriously, but his mischievous hand managed to pinch her nose.
She didn’t scold him; she only giggled while hiding her face in his broad chest embrace.

After their sweet morning,
Bella took Tristan to the airport with Dax before they headed to the hospital, following her mother, who had been staying at the cancer facility since yesterday.
***
When Bella and Dax arrived at the hospital, which didn’t look like a hospital but like a resort villa complex on a mountain, they were immediately led to an exclusive villa area they would use.
Bella’s villa is a few meters from the building where her mother will have surgery—a four-story white building in the middle of the villa complex.
This cancer facility, owned by the Sinclair Group, with expert and qualified doctors and sophisticated medical equipment, is a place that wealthy people in this country often come to for treatment.
Apart from luxurious facilities with sophisticated medical equipment, it also provides luxury villas for families or patients who want to recover in a quiet place with clean air.
When Bella and Dax follow Bryan to her villa, her step abruptly stops when her eyes are fixed on someone she is familiar with.
‘Oh my God… Why is that person here? Did he know my mother will have surgery in this place?’
Bella’s hands suddenly felt cold; she tried to act calmly and avoid their encounter, but it was too late. That person had already noticed her.
