Bella Woods held Ashton Marshall's hand as they walked out of Strong Woods and David Dawning's farmhouse eatery for quite a distance before stopping.
Just as she was about to speak to Ashton, she was met with his meaningful gaze, which suddenly made her feel inexplicably guilty.
She even didn't quite know how to face Ashton, so she looked away.
"I can't be seen in public now?" Ashton raised an eyebrow.
"No, I just..." Bella explained, "There were so many people, I didn't want to have a conflict with Joy Thompson. Maybe someone took a photo, and if it gets online..."
Bella had noticed someone picking up their phone before she hastily dragged Ashton away.
Ashton rarely appeared in the media or attended parties, so many knew his name, but not his true appearance.
That's why Joy mistook him for a normal male prostitute.
But once it's online, even if others don't recognize him, the Hughes Family and the Marshall Family will, and that could cause a big scene.
