Billionaire’s Unseen Love ( Bella and Alex )
CHAPTER 62

62 Rediscovered Passion

Emma brushed off Juliet’s playful doubt with a determined retort. “I’ll win all those stuffed animals for you, just watch,” she said confidently. The Smirnoffs were known for their persistence, and Emma’s resolve was no different. Marrying Alex against all odds was a testament to her tenacity, yet she sometimes questioned if it was the right choice.

Returning to the dance game after a long hiatus, Emma felt out of practice. She had set aside her hobbies and passions to fit into the role of a dedicated wife, realizing now it was a disservice to herself. She used to excel at games like this, but her skills had faded.

Starting with an easier song, Emma slowly regained her rhythm and confidence. By the time she switched to a more challenging track, she was fully immersed, her movements graceful and fluid, attracting the attention of onlookers.

Emma’s background in dance was evident in her coordination and rhythm, drawing an audience that even started to divert attention from Maxwell’s performance.

Juliet, thrilled by Emma’s prowess, recorded her dance on her phone. She was amazed to see Emma hadn’t lost her touch over the years. Winning the plush toy Juliet wanted, Emma was enveloped in a tight hug.

“Thank you! You’re amazing! I’m glad you’re back to help me win these prizes,” Juliet exclaimed, her excitement palpable.

Emma, feeling a twinge of guilt for neglecting Juliet, resolved to make amends, despite wondering if it was too late to undo the past.

“There are more toys to win. I’ll get them all,” Emma declared, ready to face the challenge.

Meanwhile, Alex observed Emma from a higher vantage point, captivated by this side of her he had never seen. During their marriage, Emma had downplayed her talents and passions to accommodate him. Now, witnessing her true self – vibrant, dynamic, and full of life – Alex felt a mix of admiration and regret.

Bella, accompanying Alex, felt overlooked and grew increasingly frustrated. She had hoped to have Alex’s undivided attention, but Emma’s presence always seemed to overshadow her efforts.

Alex remained silent in response to Bella’s question, “Are you regretting it now?” His gaze returned to Emma, reflecting a newfound appreciation and realization of his ignorance of her true self.

Throughout their marriage, Emma had concealed her abilities, and Alex had been oblivious. Now, seeing her in her element, he recognized how much of her true self she had suppressed for their relationship.

Bella, noticing Alex’s indifference, simmered with jealousy. Despite her efforts to connect with Alex, his attention remained fixated on Emma, reigniting her resentment.
