As for Bella Scott herself, she no longer resists Grant Ray's advances like she used to.
Apart from the fact that Grant Ray was interested in her, she found him not difficult to get along with.
Since she couldn't drive away Grant Ray, she simply let go of her prejudice against him and stopped wasting her energy.
This attitude of hers somewhat boosted Grant Ray's confidence. However, after a few days, he found that Bella remained indifferent to his advances, treating him no differently than Clarky or other colleagues.
One day, he finally managed to invite Bella to have dinner with him.
During the meal, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you plan to stay single for the rest of your life because of Edward Anderson?"
She was so young and beautiful, and life was so wonderful. Why couldn't she let go and squander her time for a man who was already in the grave?
He thought Bella's answer would be affirmative, but to his surprise, she shook her head: "No."
