~Bella's POV
As we drove away from the dealership, I couldn't help but steal glances at the car that had just been bought for me. It was being driven by one of the dealership's assigned drivers, following behind us. My heart swelled with emotions—gratitude, disbelief, and something I couldn't quite name.
Alex had just done something so huge, so thoughtful, and yet, here I was, about to tell him something that might make him rethink everything.
I hesitated, biting my lip. He noticed.
"What's wrong?" Alex asked, his voice calm as he kept his eyes on the road.
I exhaled slowly, then turned slightly to face him. "There's just one problem, Alex..."
He lifted an eyebrow but didn't say anything, waiting for me to continue.
I swallowed my pride and admitted, "I don't know how to drive."
For a moment, there was silence. I wasn't sure how he would react, but when I finally dared to look at him, I saw the corners of his lips twitching as if he were trying not to smile.
