James Grayson's deep eyes fell on her, he didn't speak, but it seemed as if he had said thousands of words.
The feeling of strangeness and familiarity overwhelmed her, and she didn't know how to deal with it.
She bowed her head.
"Did you come to the wrong box?" the person on James Grayson's side asked.
Bella immediately turned around, Frederick Patton held Bella's arm and said, "I'll call to ask."
Bella nodded.
Frederick Patton smiled at Bella, there was a doting color in his eyes and he called.
The telephone rang outside the door and Peter Maxwell came in from the door with a mobile phone and said with a smile, "you all are here. I'm sorry, there was some traffic jam on the way."
"Miss Bella." Tom Maxwell said enthusiastically.
"Miss Bella." Tom Maxwell's mother's face was not very good. Although Bella saved her son, still they had some grudges of the past.
Bella nodded to their guest as a greeting.
Frederick Patton looked at Peter Maxwell coming, hung up his cell phone, and politely said, "It's not strange to have traffic jams during the rush hour. Governor Maxwell came at the right time. We just reached and thought that we came to the wrong box."
"I have some friends to introduce to you." Peter Maxwell looked at James Grayson. "Chief Grayson, from the special military region."
"Chief Grayson, this is Bella, a famous psychologist, Frederick Patton, the head of the police department of Halem City. You are all the most talented people among the young people. When I was your age, I was nothing." Peter Maxwell sat and praised.
Tom Maxwell sat on his left side, while James Grayson was on the right side of Peter Maxwell, the most honorable position.
Because they had already reserved the box, and it was also a box for distinguished guests, the food was also already ordered.
The waiter poured everyone red wine.
"Here, I'd like to thank Miss Bella very much. I'm sorry. There was a misunderstanding between my wife and you last time. I was too busy with my work and didn't know the specific situation in time. Miss Bella was wronged. I'll give you a toast here and make up for it with you." Peter Maxwell smiled and raised his glass.
Bella also raised her glass.
Tom Maxwell's mother's character was cowardly, so it was impossible to not report things to Peter Maxwell. Peter Maxwell said that he wanted to clear with legal benefits in front of all people. If she would smile, she was afraid that not only the contract can't be terminated, but she will have to bear the consequences after three months.
Sometimes it's of no use to be polite, and sometimes we can't deny to refuse if the occasion isn't suitable.
"Didn't your wife call you last time?" Bella said directly and took a sip of the wine.
Peter Maxwell didn't expect Bella to be so disrespectful. He looked at her wife. "Did you tell me about this?"
Peter Maxwell's wife's face was also very bad, and she was hesitant.
She said a lot of bad things about Bella in front of Tom Maxwell. She didn't want Bella to continue to be Tom Maxwell's tutor, but she helped her husband. "I have a bad memory. I forgot."
"Fortunately, I have a good memory. However, the public is public, private is private. I came here according to the arrangement of the Research Institute. I did what I should do. Governor Peter Maxwell also invited guests on a special trip. I respect Governor Peter Maxwell, but I'm sorry for it." Bella responded.
Peter Maxwell glared at his wife displeasingly. There were many people, and he couldn't attack. He raised his glass and took a sip.
"By the way, is Governor Peter Maxwell not busy recently? He is free at noon." Bella asked with a smile.
"I just came to Halem City today to investigate. I have some things to deal with. Even if I'm busy, I still have to eat. And I need to repay my kindness. We are fortunate that Miss Bella came here, if there was someone else, he might not be able to solve the case." Peter Maxwell replied.
"Governor Peter Maxwell praises me too much. God won't let injustice prevails. After all, he saw everything. Tom just needs to say where the mobile phone is and the video inside proved Tom's innocence." Bella explained.
"Is that so?" Peter Maxwell looked at Frederick Patton in surprise.
Frederick Patton nodded, "it's like this, but who can ask your son, he doesn't talk to us, ha ha."
"Ah," Peter Maxwell sighed, "you are the only one who can manage my son. I sincerely want to invite you to be Tom's teacher again."
"Miss Bella." Tom Maxwell said enthusiastically, "I like you,"
James Grayson's eyes were deep. He glanced at Bella, raises his glass and took a sip of wine.
Bella also raised her glass and smiled at Tom Maxwell. "Actually, you never needed me. Others don't believe you. But I believe in you. You will do something great one day. Remember, don't make mistakes. Don't take the wrong step."
Tom Maxwell's eyes were red, and he took up his glass. "Thank you, Miss Bella."
Bella took the glass, took a sip, and drank all the wine in the glass.
Tom Maxwell also drank the wine from the glass.
"Pour your teacher wine." Peter Maxwell reminded.
Tom Maxwell took the glass pot and went to Bella's side and poured it.
Frederick Patton also picked up his glass. "To you, thank you for coming."
"I dare not accept this thanks. I'm much more grateful to you for saving me." Bella held up the glass.
"Can I think of it as a gift from heaven?" Frederick Patton said with a smile, touching Bella's glass and drinking all the wine in it.
Bella saw that he drank it in a sip, but she couldn't.
Peter Maxwell saw the clue. "Did you know each other before?"
"It was due to a good fate." Frederick Patton smiled and like a mature man said a little ambiguously.
James Grayson drank all the wine in the cup again. His eyes were heavy. It seems that there was an unfathomable pool for thousands of years.
"Does Miss Bella have a boyfriend?" Peter Maxwell asked.
Bella lowered her eyes and from the side looked at James Grayson.
Perhaps they were so far apart that she could not see his expression.
Does she have a boyfriend?
Does David Wilson count?
"Yes," Bella said definitely and cut off Frederick Patton's thoughts.
Frederick Patton was disappointed, but he was very self-contained and praised, "He must be very lucky to be your boyfriend."
"I hope so," Bella said ambiguously.
The waiter poured red wine in her glass.
Peter Maxwell turned to James Grayson and said, "Chief, do you have a girlfriend?"
"Um." James Grayson responded with a voice and drank all the wine in the cup again. He seemed unwilling to say more.
Peter Maxwell poured the wine to James Grayson. "Chief's girlfriend must be very happy. This toast is to you."
James Grayson said nothing and drank a glass of wine.
Bella looked at him.
James Grayson was a very responsible person. She knew once he will get married he will be responsible for his marriage, his wife and children. He will not do any injustice with his family.
Such a man is very good, really good.
"I wish you well, Chief Grayson," Bella said sincerely, holding up the glass.
James Grayson's grip on the glass was too strong, as he heard it, it became stronger, until the glass broke, and the fragments stabbed into his palm. The blood flowed out.....
