Finally, He Ask

Tristan was silent momentarily, but his eyes were still fixed on Bella. He appeared to be deep in thought.

When Tristan noticed Bella's anxious expression and waited for him to speak, Tristan finally asked. 

"My dear wife, I heard that... Sam is no longer your driver and bodyguard. Why did you dismiss him?" He was curious to know her reason. 

Bella was surprised to hear that. "How do you know he's no longer my driver and bodyguard!?" she asked.

Tristan silently took a deep breath when he remembered how frightening he was when he couldn't contact her. 

"Well, when I lost contact with you, I called him. And he told me that you assigned him to other tasks."

Bella could see how gloomy he was when talking about the incident at the park earlier. She gave a half smile before explaining.
