Aunt Rhodes gently comforted, "Alright Bella, don't cry, don't cry."
Bella Acker cried for a while, finally stopping the tears.
It was such a strange feeling.
If she didn't know that Aunt Rhodes was actually her mother, perhaps she wouldn't have cried so heartbreakingly in her arms.
Sometimes, blood ties and familial affection truly are a wondrous thing.
Bella sniffed and said, "Aunt Rhodes, thank you."
"No... no need." With the revelation of her identity, Aunt Rhodes felt even more tense and uneasy facing Bella, always worried that Bella didn't like her or was resisting her.
Bella noticed her tension as well, so she changed the topic, "Aunt Rhodes, why did you come out earlier?"
"Ah? I came out to find Bonnie!" Mrs. Sinclair was reminded by her and then remembered she was out searching for someone.
"Did Bonnie get lost?" Bella was also startled.
