Bella's words echoed Sabrina's own fears.
Now that she was married to Martin, she wanted to strike while the iron was hot and have her daughter marry into a wealthy family as well.
Bella was now considered the stepdaughter of a wealthy man, which raised her status. Marrying now was advantageous.
However, if Sebastian wasn't proactive about the wedding, their efforts would be for nothing.
Hearing Bella's explanation, Sabrina grew even more concerned.
"That Sebastian is so indecisive.
Back when he and Lillian were still married, he was messing around with you.
Now that he's finally divorced and free of Lillian, able to marry you, he's suddenly having second thoughts.

His marriage to Lillian was a secret, but he's been openly flirting with you for years.
If he doesn't marry you now, what will people think? They'll think something is wrong with my darling daughter. It will ruin your reputation."
Bella was worried about these things too.
"So, Mom, please help me. It's just playing cards. Since Ms. Harris came to Northwyn, she only hangs out with her old friends.
