Clark publicly expressed his affection for Bella, while Kim watched in disbelief but refrained from intervening.
After accompanying Bella to her class, Clark departed. Bella entered her classroom with a sense of determination, remaining unaffected by the opinions of others, as she had developed profound feelings for Clark.
While seated at her desk in preparation for study, Kim approached Bella unexpectedly.
Kim greeted Bella with an uncertain, "Hi, Bella." Bella, feeling both heartbroken and resolved, chose to respond with caution.
"Hello, Kim. How may I assist you?" Bella inquired. Kim expressed regret for her previous neglect and suggested that their situation would have improved had she reconciled with Bella sooner.
Bella responded with disbelief, saying, "There is no need for that. I do not seek your support; after everything that transpired, I am fine. Could you please excuse me?" Bella then stood and walked away.
Kim felt disheartened and guilty, attempting to follow Bella. Yvonne, witnessing this interaction, intervened to discourage Kim from pursuing Bella.
Bella remained steadfast in her resolve, experiencing no regrets for her actions. As the examination period commenced, students hurried to prepare for their upcoming tests. Despite prior tensions, Bella chose not to confront Kim, even though they were seated in proximity during the exam.
Later, Bella exhibited kindness towards Kim by offering to share notes, an offer that Kim ultimately accepted.
After completing the exam, Kim expressed her gratitude, and they both exited the hall. Kim apologized once more, but Bella opted not to take it personally, extending her forgiveness. Nevertheless, she declined Kim's invitation for further discussion, indicating her commitment to meeting Clark.
Kim briefly embraced Bella, remarking, "I am truly sorry for everything, but you could have kept this a secret." Bella responded emotionally, "Did you just say that I should have kept it a secret? When I attempted to communicate with you, what did you do? You walked away." Angered, she chose to conclude the conversation and departed.
Yvvonne approached Kim, advising against pressuring Bella. She inquired, "What was the nature of your discussion?" Kim, still troubled by the earlier encounter, hesitated to respond.
Yvvonne cautioned, "Do not pressure her; she does not deserve that kind of treatment. Everything will work out for you."
Unable to tolerate Yvvonne's negativity, Kim decided to disengage from the conversation.
Later, Bella found Clark waiting for her at the basketball court and joyfully ran into his arms. They shared another kiss, during which Clark expressed his desire to take her on a date. He arranged for an Uber, and Bella entered the vehicle, feeling elated.
Kim witnessed this interaction in disbelief but chose not to involve herself. Clark took Bella to an upscale restaurant, reminiscent of their initial outing together. Bella's expression radiated happiness as she embraced Clark tightly, savoring their time together.
Clark remarked, "Nothing can separate us, my love," to which Bella affirmatively responded, acknowledging her deep feelings for him. She also selected gifts for her family, while Clark insisted on taking her shopping at a mall.
When Bella questioned, "Why are you doing all of this for me?" he replied with a smile, "To apologize on behalf of my mother." Bella reassured him that such gestures were unnecessary, yet he remained determined to please her.
The two enjoyed a delightful day, capturing photographs in their school uniforms. Meanwhile, Clark's mother, Mrs. Joy, attempted to contact him but was unable to reach him. Consequently, she sought information from Yvvonne, who answered her call.
"Hello, ma'am," Yvvonne responded.
Mrs. Joy inquired about Clark's whereabouts, to which Yvvonne provided relevant information.
Yvonne sent a video featuring Bella and Clark engaged in a kiss on the basketball court. Upon viewing this footage,
Mrs. Joy became visibly upset and was momentarily speechless, covering her mouth in disbelief. Her husband, Mr. Frank, noticed her reaction and inquired, "Honey, what is wrong this time?"
Mr. Frank took her phone to review the video, which further exacerbated his distress. He promptly dispatched several security personnel to locate their son.
The guards departed in search of Clark while Mrs. Joy reached out to Yvonne for any relevant information regarding their whereabouts. Yvonne provided the address of Bella's residence, prompting Mrs. Joy to drive there accompanied by some guards.
Meanwhile, Kira was outside tending to laundry when she observed several flashy vehicles arriving at their home. Surprised by the unexpected visitors, she remained to see who it was.
A well-dressed woman wearing sunglasses stepped out of one of the cars, while Kira's siblings emerged from the house, equally curious about the situation.
Mrs. Joy instructed her guards to search the premises, but Kira intervened, stating, "How can you enter someone's home without permission?" The guards disregarded her request, pushing her aside as they entered the house while calling out for Clark.
In the process, Kira fell to the ground, injuring her back on a protruding rod as she was shoved aside. Her siblings rushed to assist her, while Mrs. Joy remarked, "This is the consequence of obstructing my path."
After some time, the guards exited the house to inform Mrs. Joy that Clark was not present. Shortly thereafter, Bella and Clark arrived together, embracing and kissing
. Mrs. Joy, witnessing this scene, was taken aback, removing her glasses and opening her mouth in shock, but they failed to notice her presence until they looked up and saw the gathering.
Upon realizing the situation, Bella hurried towards her sister, who was still on the floor with bags in her hands. Clark intended to follow, but Mrs. Joy restrained him, forcing him into the vehicle.
The guards communicated to others that was in search of him that their son had been located. Clark, filled with anger, found himself at a loss for how to respond, his frustration boiling beneath the surface.
Bella radiated confidence as her sister asked, "What makes you smile?" With a sense of pride, she revealed her credit notification, which prompted an excited reaction from her sister, who hugged her tightly despite her back pain.
she felt a pang of guilt regarding the financial implications, as she held her connection with the Bieber family in high esteem.
Not long after, their mother returned from the market, appearing somewhat tired but determined. She walked in with her shopping bag and handed me a fish, clearly signaling her intent to make a delicious sauce.
She then asked Kira to go down the street to buy drinks.
