All along, Thea Lynch's affection for Ian Preston has been a secret.
But unfortunately, this secret was later discovered by someone.
And that someone was Sean Bell.
Knowing they were cousins, at first, Thea Lynch was on edge, fearing Sean Bell would tell Ian Preston about this.
Because at the time, she had only recently developed feelings for Ian Preston and hadn't decided to confess yet.
Sean Bell was indeed quite peculiar, and she could never grasp what was on his mind.
She tested him, hoping Sean Bell would keep the secret for now. Strangely enough, he actually agreed at the time.
Later, Sean Bell kept asking about her progress and even suggested helping her pursue Ian Preston.
However, she planned to confess to Ian Preston after the college entrance exams ended, so she didn't agree to Sean Bell's proposal.
