As far as their lives were concerned, things were just fine, and Belle even considered her life peaceful and blessed. It was quite befitting of her current situation, but not the same for someone else.
That night, after having dinner with Eli's family, she received a message from Karis. The woman was currently conflicted when it comes to the matter of her heart. She couldn't really blame her for feeling so. She was about to leave the country, forget the unrequited love as she previously said, and everything had been set for her. Then Charles came and sent her spiraling into another wave of worries and fear.
"What time is your flight tomorrow?" Belle asked, hoping to talk to Karis before giving a verdict on her feelings and emotions.
