Back at the Abrams Mansion,
Leo stood there, baffled by the chaos unraveling in front of him. Bella’s insistence, the harshness in her tone, the hostility aimed at Nicole; it all felt surreal.
Just days ago, he had seen them laughing together, exchanging light banter like lifelong friends.
There was a newfound friendship between them that had put him at ease, thinking things were finally settling down.
And now, here they were, standing in the middle of the living room, with Bella practically yelling for Nicole to be thrown out. What could have possibly happened to change things so drastically?
He ruffled his hair, tension building up in him. It is quite unbearable to watch when Bella lost her temper. Yes, she could be whimsical but this was not whimsicality, this was strategising.
