Ch. 341..350

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 341

Bella’s POV

I continued to try to push him away, but he held me tightly.

No matter how hard I tried, he refused to let me go.

I looked up and saw a painful and sad expression on his face. Why was he still hugging me when it was already so uncomfortable? ‘Let go of me!” I yelled.

“It’s you who should let go.” Then I heard the deep and hoarse voice of Herbert.

“L…” I regained my senses. Only then did I realize that my hands were still tightly clutching the tie around Herbert’s neck Oh, my God, what was I doing? I immediately let go of my hands

Herbert’s strong arms, which were holding me, also loosened, and I immediately took two steps back, because we were too close just now. I didn’t know if it was my illusion, but I seemed to have touched something hard just now.

My gaze drifted uncontrollably to his lower body.

At this time, Herbert lowered his head and coughed a few times.

“The temperature seems to have risen all of a sudden.” I fanned with my hand and walked out.

I went back to my bedroom and sat by the bed. I touched my cheeks and found that they were burning hot

I lowered my head and saw the phone in my hand. I couldn’t help but frown. I went to borrow the phone’s charger. But I went there for nothing. I still didn’t get the charger in the end.

I leaned back and lay on the soft bed.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

“Who is it?” I quickly got up from the bed and asked in the direction of the door. “I have something to do. You don’t have to wait for me to eat at night. I may come back later.” Herbert’s deep voice came from outside. Hearing this, I was stunned and then quickly answered loudly. “Got it.” Later, I heard footsteps walking away. When I couldn’t hear his footsteps anymore, I breathed a sigh of relief. I ran to the window and hid behind the curtain. Looking out of the window, I saw a figure in a white shirt getting into the car, and then a black Bentley left. Knowing that he was gone, my heart gradually calmed down. Herbert was like a poison. Once I got close to him, I couldn’t control myself. I lowered my head and looked at my phone. Then I went out of the bedroom, gently pushed open Herbert’s bedroom door, and walked in.

In the end, I found a charger in Herbert’s room. I quickly charged my phone. While my phone was

charging, I saw the shirt that Herbert had just taken off on the bed. I frowned, picked up the shirt that was stained with my snot and tears, and went into the bathroom to wash.

I washed his shirt and let it dry under the sun. Finally, my phone could be turned on. I quickly called Joey.

After the call was connected, I called, “Joey!”

At that time, Joey interrupted me. “Bella, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’m on a business trip on the spur of the moment. I will only be back in a week. I left in such a hurry that I forgot to tell you!”

Hearing this, I immediately frowned. “Are you on a business trip? And it will take a week?” I was still hoping for Joey to send me my clothes and daily necessities. Those people were still waiting for me at the door.

I didn’t dare to go back and make trouble.

“Where are you now? How are things going with you?” Joey asked anxiously

Hearing this, I had no choice but to answer, “I’m in Herbert’s house now. He said he would help me solve the problem.”

Upon hearing these words, Joey said happily, “Fortunately, you still have Herbert to help you out. “Let me tell you, you’re in big trouble this time. It’s not something a nobody like us can solve, so you’d better rely on Herbert to solve it. If he can help you, I won’t be worried. Bye-bye!”

After that, she hung up the phone.

“Hey.” Before I could say anything, Joey hung up the phone.

I looked at my phone and sighed.

It seemed that there was no better way now.

I would compromise for two days first. I would go back to get my things when the group of people had gone.

After Lucky woke up, she was very happy to see me. Lucas was taken back by Gary from kindergarten. Knowing that I would stay here for the time being, he danced happily.

That night, Miranda made fabulous food full on the table, and many of them were my favorite.

“Miranda, the food you cooked is still as delicious as before, and you still remember what I like to eat. Thank you so much!” After eating, I did not forget to thank Miranda

But Miranda smiled embarrassedly and said, “It was Mr. Wharton who asked me to prepare these dishes.”

Hearing this, I looked at the delicious food on the table and couldn’t help but be stunned, I always thought that he was overbearing and careless.

I didn’t expect that he would remember all of my favorite food.

“Miss Stepanek, I’ve got all your toiletries. I just haven’t had time to go shopping for pajamas yet,” said Miranda. “When the shopping mall opens tomorrow, I’ll buy it myself.” I decided to buy some daily necessities first and not go home to get them. But Miranda laughed. “Miss Stepanek, there’s no need for you to do it yourself. Mr. Wharton has already ordered everything in the department store. But they didn’t have the time to deliver the goods today. The department store will get someone to send everything over early tomorrow morning.”

Hearing this, I nodded.

Herbert was so considerate He looked cold, handsome, and considerate. No wonder so many women liked him. I took a deep breath and told myself that I must not be captured by these things. “Wasn’t the damage I suffered in the past enough?”

I didn’t want any more harm from the past to happen to me again.

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 342

Bella’s POV:

The toiletries, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, and towels, were all ready for me, but I didn’t have any pajamas, underwear, and clothes to change into.

I was going to ask the maids at home if they had any extra clothes.

But they all said that they didn’t have extra clothes.

After taking a shower, I saw that Herbert hadn’t come back yet. I could only find a shirt in the wardrobe that he didn’t seem to wear very often to wear as my pajamas first. Then, I washed all my underwear and clothes, so that I would have clothes to wear tomorrow.

After coaxed Lucky to sleep. Lucas pestered me to go to his bedroom to tell him a story.

However, I didn’t know what happened to Lucas today. I told him a lot of stories, but he still refused to sleep.

In the end, I was sleepy.

Looking at the clock on the wall, it was almost 11 o’clock. I helplessly looked at Lucas and asked, “Why don’t you sleep today, Lucas?”

My saliva had dried up. I really didn’t know why the little guy’s big round eyes were still so energetic.

To my surprise, Lucas got into my arms and hugged my waist, saying, “Mommy, I might be too excited today. You’re here in my bedroom today to tell me stories at night. That’s great!”

Hearing this, although I was very happy. I felt more uncomfortable.

I stroked Lucas’s head.

I owed this child too much. When he needed me most, I couldn’t take care of him by his side. Thinking of this, I felt particularly guilty.

“Be a good boy, Lucas. Mommy will often tell you stories before you go to bed in the future, okay?” | looked at Lucas, who was staring at me, and said.

Hearing this, Lucas was naturally very surprised. He raised his little head and asked, “Is it for real?” “Of course. Mommy won’t lie to you.” I nodded seriously and swore in my heart, “I’ll make it up to this child in the future.”

“Mommy, I love you!” Lucas hugged my waist tightly. At this moment, I stroked Lucas’s head and said, “But now you have to go to bed immediately. You still need to go to kindergarten tomorrow, do you understand?” “Got it.” Lucas nodded heavily, then lay back on the pillow obediently and closed his eyes.

This time, about a few minutes later, Lucas breathed steadily. I looked down and found that he had fallen asleep under the dim wall lamp.

Seeing him being so well-behaved, my eyes became a little wet. This child liked to stick to me and listened to me very much. He was very well-behaved.

I knew that this child really needed a mother.

I covered Lucas with a thin quilt and kissed him on his little face. Then I turned off the wall lamp and quietly walked out of his bedroom. Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 342

I exited the bedroom and was about to close the door.

A hand reached out and grabbed my hand, which was on the handle. I was so scared that I screamed in a low voice. “Ah!”

“Don’t be afraid, it’s me!” Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded.

Looking back, I saw a handsome face under the dim wall light of the living room. Seeing that it was Herbert, I couldn’t help but touch my chest. “Are you trying to scare me to death?” “Is Lucas asleep?” Herbert glanced inside the door.

“Yes.” I nodded and closed the door.

“Let me have a look at him.” Herbert wanted to push the door open.

I reached out and grabbed his arm. “Don’t go in and wake him up. He has to go to kindergarten tomorrow!”

Hearing this, Herbert nodded and gave up the idea of going to see Lucas. Only then did I realize that my hand was still grabbing his arm. I quickly let go of it, but I could smell a strong smell of alcohol at the tip of my nose. I couldn’t help but frown. “Why did you drink so much?” I asked. “I had to attend the social activities.”

Herbert answered me and looked at me. His eyes were as soft as the moonlight tonight…

Herbert’s POV:

At this moment, Bella was so beautiful.

Her long hair hung loosely over her shoulders, and she was wearing a white man’s shirt. There were two buttons on her chest that were not fastened, revealing her white skin. Although the shirt was very big, her white and slender legs were still revealed.

Bella’s face was slightly red. She said, “It’s getting late. I’m going to rest!” After that, Bella turned around and walked up the stairs quickly.

When she went upstairs, she grabbed the hem of her shirt.

That shirt seemed to belong to me?

Bella walked quickly into her bedroom. Just as she was about to close the door, I reached out and pressed the door handle. “It’s getting late. Go and get some rest!” Was she nervous? She seemed to be a little scared.

She was even cuter.

The alcohol made my brain dizzy. I chuckled and teased her. “Shouldn’t you ask me first if you were going to wear my shirt ?” In fact, I didn’t really care about a piece of clothing. I just wanted to talk to her and look at her more. “I’ll give it back to you after I buy my pajamas tomorrow,” Bella said and was about to close the door. “I want you to give it back today!” I walked into the room. Bella took two steps back and said angrily, “Herbert, are you drunk?” Bella was already angry. If it had been in normal times, I would have controlled all my emotions and turned to leave.

Because I knew that if I continued to do something, she would definitely be dissatisfied.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, I didn’t want to leave at all.

“I’m not drunk. It’s obvious that you didn’t get my permission to wear my clothes. It shouldn’t be too much for me to ask you to give it back to me now, right?”

I was approaching her. Bella had no choice but to retreat step by step. Her nervous expression was very cute.

“If you go out now, I’ll throw your ragged shirt out right away!”

Look, she’s so cute when she’s angry.

At this time, Bella had already retreated to the bedside and then fell directly on the bed.

Looking at Bella from this angle, I found that she was really charming.

The desire in my body was beyond my control.

I pressed her against the soft big bed!

Bella shouted, “Herbert, what do you want to do?”

“Don’t you understand what I want to do?” I kissed her cheek gently

The unique fragrance of Bella suddenly invaded my nose.

The sweet taste made me go completely crazy...

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 343

Bella’s POV:

Herbert’s body was too big. My legs were pressed down by him, and my wrist was held by his big hand,

I had no way to escape from his control.

“Let go. If you don’t let me go, I’ll shout. Lucky’s still sleeping on the small bed. If I wake her up, she’ll be frightened!”I warned. However, I didn’t expect that it wouldn’t work.

Herbert was completely drunk.

He kissed me directly on the lips.

The smell of alcohol made me very angry, but my hands were bound by him and my legs were pressed by him. I couldn’t resist at all.

His kiss was very wild. I was no longer a little girl, I could clearly feel the primitive impulse of a man in his kiss.

The kind of impulse to make love.

However, he didn’t do anything else after he kissed me for a minute.

His kiss became unusually gentle, and his big hands holding my wrists relaxed a little.

I didn’t remember the last time when he was so gentle. Maybe because I hadn’t been with a man for a long time, the desire in my body had been provoked by him.

After an unknown period of time, he suddenly ended the kiss.

I immediately opened my mouth wide and breathed in the fresh air.

At this time, I smelled an obvious perfume. I could be sure that it was from Herbert.

This was not the perfume for men. The rose fragrance was very strong.

Humph, he came back so late tonight. It turned out that he had gone on a date with a beautiful woman.

“Since you’ve gone on a date with a beautiful woman, why are you still teasing me?” Thinking of this, I reached out and pushed Herbert aside! Herbert hurriedly supported his body with his arms and said with a frown, “Just now, you enjoyed it very much. Why did you fall out with me so soon? You are even more fickle than a man!” Hearing this, I was really angry. I immediately put my hands on my waist and said, “It was you who forced me. Why do you always like to bully women?” “Bella…” Herbert said with a frown. Then, I smelled the rose perfume again. It was very familiar.

I seemed to have smelled it somewhere.

After thinking for a while, I finally thought of something.

It was the smell of the perfume that Linda used.

Then, I looked at him with contempt and asked, “Herbert, did you go on a date with Linda?” Herbert didn’t explain. Seeing his expression, I knew I guessed right. I clenched my fists and said angrily, “You and Linda are a perfect match. You should be with her.” “Why did you come to tease me after you just finished your date with her? Isn’t it too immoral for you to do this? What do you take us for? Something that you can abandon when you’re done playing?” “Have you said enough?” Herbert growled. “No!” I shouted loudly and continued, “Let me tell you, I will never share a man with another woman.” After that, I turned around and walked out

But as soon as I reached the door, I found that the bedroom was my room, so I returned immediately

“Get out of here!”

“This is my home!” Herbert staggered.

“You have already lent this room to me. You can’t go back on your word!” After that, I pushed him out of the door, then quickly closed the door and locked it.

Leaning against the door, I didn’t know where my confidence came from. This was obviously Herbert’s home! I was staying at his house for the time being.

If I were driven out by him, and if I was caught by those gangsters after I went out, I would probably lose my life.

But I was just angry. There was only me in his eyes just now. Just an hour ago, he went on a date with another woman.

Also, his body was filled with the smell of perfume. Did he and Linda hug each other?

Or was it because of their intimate actions that he was stained with the smell of perfume?

Thinking of this, I almost went crazy.

“F*ck! Damn it, Herbert!” He was having intimacy with Linda, and now he was looking for me! It was disgusting. After a long time, the helpless voice of Herbert came from outside. “You’ve gone too far.” “I’ve gone too far?” I yelled at the door. My anger had not subsided yet. This time, it was obvious that he had gone too far.

But after a moment of silence outside, I heard a chuckle. “It seems that I’m the one who’s cheap. I just like a woman who’s gone too far!”

I said loudly to the door, “You like too many people, don’t you? You like Linda now and I’m just your previous lover!”

“I went to get close to Linda for you and to help you solve the problem. But you scolded me,” Herbert outside said in a low voice. He was not like the usual Herbert at all.

For me? Did I force him to date Linda?

I was a little impatient. I just thought he was drunk and talking nonsense.

I stopped talking and turned off the lights.

After the lights went out, the person outside stopped talking.

At this moment, Lucky, who was lying on the small bed, probably heard the sound of us quarreling and flipped a few times.

I hurried forward and patted her little arm a few times in the moonlight. Then, she went back to sleep.

But then, I couldn’t fall asleep. I couldn’t help touching my red and swollen lips, and Herbert’s overbearing kiss kept appearing in my mind…

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 344

Bella’s POV:

I didn’t fall asleep until the latter half of the night.

That night, I had been dreaming. In my dream, a man pressed down on me and kissed my cheeks, lips, collarbones, and all the way down…

I woke up early in the morning.

Thinking of the dream just now, I blushed a little and thought, “What’s wrong with me? Is it because haven’t had a man for a long time?” I couldn’t help but despise myself in my heart.

I thought that after women had their own children, they could still lead a normal life without a man.

Even if there was a need, I could solve it by myself.

However, such a thought had been ruined by Herbert last night. He broke my originally calm heart with a kiss, as well as the physiological needs that I had been restraining.

In order to calm myself down, I got up immediately and took a cold shower.

After a while, Lucky woke up. After washing up with Lucky in my arms, I went downstairs. The breakfast had already been prepared by Miranda by this time, and Lucas was already sitting at the dining table, ready to eat. He would go to kindergarten when he was full.

When Lucas was about to go to school, the doorbell suddenly rang. Miranda went to open the door outside.

I handed Lucky to Gary, and then I took Lucas’s hand. As soon as I walked to the living room, I saw Miranda leading several young women in uniforms into the living room. Each of them was carrying countless bags.

Seeing them, I was a little stunned. I didn’t know what these people were doing here. “Mommy, these women are carrying beautiful clothes and bags, as well as shoes and cosmetics!” Lucas was excited. He broke away from my hand and ran forward. He circled around the young women and lowered his head to look at every bag in their hands.

Just as I was wondering, Miranda smiled and said to me, “Miss Stepanek, these are all the things that Mr. Wharton ordered for you. The people in the mall have sent them over. Mr. Wharton asked you to try them all. If you don’t like them, you can ask them to take these things back and change to something else.”

Hearing this, I frowned. Yesterday, Miranda said that someone from the mall would send pajamas over, but I didn’t expect that it would be this exaggerated. I glanced at the bags in the hands of the female attendants, and there were a total of six female attendants. Each of them had a few bags in their hands, and there were around fifty or sixty of them. Oh my god, it was like they had moved the entire shopping mall back.

At this time, the female attendants stepped forward one by one, smiling and showing the products they brought “Miss Stepanek, I’m from the service department. Here are five dresses, three pairs of trousers, three shirts, and two suits. They’re all the latest styles of this season. They’re chosen according to

your size. Try and see if you like them.” “Miss Stepanek, I’m from the women’s shoe department. Here are five pairs of high heels and three pairs of casual shoes.

Two pairs of sneakers, and they are all the size of your feet. Do you want to try and see if they fit your feet?”

“Miss Stepanek, I’m from the underwear department. There are ten sets of underwear here. You can give tyhem a try and see if they fit you. They’re all your size.”

“Miss Stepanek, I’m from the bag department. Here are five satchels, three handbags, and two casual bags. Do you like them? They’re all international brands, absolutely superior.”

“Miss Stepanek, I’m from the cosmetics department. There are five different sets here. I can try them on you and see which one is suitable for you.”

“Miss Stepanek, I’m from the grocery department. There are five pajamas and a lot of daily necessities here. You can take a look and see if you like them or not.”

All of a sudden, I got a headache from the noise of these women! Lucas laughed loudly and said, “Mommy, daddy is so generous. It can be seen that you are his true love. He bought so many things for you. He’s a little stingy to me. Every time I went to the mall to pick toys, he only asked me to pick one!”

Speaking of this, Lucas’s small mouth was spouting and he seemed to be full of grievances. I glanced at Lucas, took his hand, and said to Miranda, “Miranda, please let them go. I’ll buy my own stuff.”

I didn’t like this feeling. Why didn’t he ask for my permission to bring the entire mall home when he bought things for me?

What was he trying to do? To show off how loaded he was?

After that, I pulled Lucas and walked out.

At this time, those women started to make noise again. “Miss Stepanek, these are all the good intentions of your husband. Why don’t you pick a few that you like?”

“Yes, these are all classic styles.”

I took Lucas’s school bag with one hand and held Lucas with the other hand and left the villa.

“Mommy, daddy has given you so many things. Why aren’t you happy?” On the way, Lucas looked up at me and asked.

“It’s nothing. This is between your daddy and me.” I really hated so many people talking in my ear early in the morning.

I just wanted some pajamas.

It was like he moved a basket of bananas with money when I just wanted an apple.

I went back to the villa after getting Lucas into the car. I changed my shoes. As soon as I walked into the living room, I saw that the living room was filled with all kinds of bags. There were so many of them that it was shocking. I saw that those bags were still there, but the attendants were gone. I shouted, “Miranda!”

“Miss Stepanek, you’re back?” When Miranda heard the voice, she hurriedly ran out of the laundry room. “Why haven’t they taken these things away yet?” I pointed to the bags on the ground and asked.

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 345

Bella’s POV:

“Miss Stepanek, Mr. Wharton instructed to keep all of these things, Miranda said.

“All of them? Will he use them?” I was a little angry.

I wondered why Herbert was always so overbearing!

It was obvious that I was the one who was wearing the clothes. Why should he decide whether they should stay or not?

Why didn’t he discuss it with me?

“Do I have to be controlled by him no matter what clothes I wear?”

“This…” Miranda lowered her head and did not speak.

I was a little regretful. Did this have anything to do with Miranda?

She just did things according to Herbert’s orders.

I heaved a sign of relief and said, “I’m sorry, Miranda. I’m not targeting you.” “I know, Miss Stepanek, but Mr. Wharton is doing this out of goodwill. He likes you and cares about you. That’s why he did this. Don’t blame him.” Miranda advised.

Hearing this, I thought, “It’s very common for rich people to attract women using branded bags, jewelry, mansion, car, diamond rings, and so on. But I don’t want these.” Then I said to Miranda, “Miranda, I’m going out to buy something.” Miranda stopped me. “Miss Stepanek, what do you need? I’ll buy it for you. Don’t go out!” “It doesn’t matter. I’m just going out to buy something I need,” I said,

But Miranda stopped me again. Timmediately noticed that something was wrong, so I asked, “Did Herbert ask you to watch me and stop me from going out?”

Lucas’s kindergarten was in the community, so it was not considered as going out. Now Herbert didn’t even let me go out. I knew that he did it for the sake of my safety, but I felt that I was being imprisoned.

“It’s not that Mr. Wharton is stopping you from going out, but he doesn’t want you to go out alone. If you want to go out, I’ll ask the driver to send you there!” Miranda said with a frown.

“There’s no need for that,” I said before I walked out angrily.

I went straight to the nearest shopping mall. Maybe because I was angry, I bought a lot of things in the mall.

I bought underwear, clothes, Shoes, bags, pajamas, and cosmetics. Although they were not famous brands, they were definitely excellent goods. Women loved to spend money when they were angry. I was not angry anymore. But when I saw the debit information from my bank card that popped out on my phone screen, my heart ached again. The pile of things in my hand cost me several thousand dollars!

There were seven or eight bags in my hands. As soon as I stepped out of the shopping mall, I felt that something was wrong. It seemed that someone had been following me all the time. Could it be that someone from the QT Company had found me?

The next moment, I reached out and stopped a taxi and left straight.

Sitting in the taxi, I looked back and saw a silver car turning several corners and following the taxi was in.

At this time, I couldn’t help but feel a little scared. “Those people probably haven’t had the chance to do anything yet. If they had found me earlier, I wouldn’t know what would have happened.” Just now, I had thought that Herbert was exaggerating, but now it seemed that his worry was reasonable, so I was not so disgusted with him anymore.

When I was about to reach the villa, the car behind me was still following the taxi. To be safe, I called in advance and asked Miranda to help me open the gate of the villa. After getting out of the taxi,! ran in quickly

I panicked and ran upstairs. I quickly put down the things in my hand and ran to the windowsill. Looking outside, I saw that the car that had been following me was still parked opposite the villa, with no intention of leaving.

I could not help frowning and thought, “Aren’t these people in the underworld too arrogant? Are they going to keep an eye on me here all the time?”

In the evening, I didn’t dare to go out to pick Lucas up, so I could only ask Gary to pick him up. I took care of Lucky myself. Because I knew that those people’s target was me, and I didn’t want to get the children into trouble.

However, from the windowsill, I saw Gary greeting the two people in the car after he went out.

At this moment, I couldn’t figure it out. “Why do those people know Gary? There seems to be something wrong.” With questions in my mind, I carried Lucky downstairs.

At this time, Miranda was cooking in the kitchen.

I walked over to her and asked with a smile, “Miranda, I saw that there was a car opposite our house that had been parked there for a long time. Do you know them?” “Of course. Aren’t they all working in Mr. Wharton’s company…” Miranda had just finished speaking, They were from the Wharton Group? In other words, those two weren’t from the QT Company, but were sent by Herbert to keep an eye on me? What was he doing? Putting me under house arrest? Keeping an eye on me? I had been panicking for a whole day!

“Miss Stepanek, the reason why Mr. Wharton did this was because he’s afraid that something unexpected might happen to you. Those two people were trying to protect you…” Gary said. “Is he trying to protect me or restrict my freedom?” I tried my best to restrain my emotions and carried Lucky upstairs. That night, it wasn’t until both Lucky and Lucas had fallen asleep that Herbert stumbled back. As soon as he entered the corridor, I smelled a strong smell of alcohol. I was particularly disgusted. Why did he become a drunkard? He went out to drink every day, and he

went out to drink with a woman. In the dim light in the corridor, Herbert looked at me, and then reached out to hold the wall next to him.

I stepped forward and questioned him. “Herbert, tell your subordinates not to follow me tomorrow!” Hearing this, Herbert reached out and touched his face. It seemed that he was very uncomfortable. “Did you hear that?” Seeing that he did not respond, I raised my voice a little. There was exhaustion and helplessness in Herbert’s voice. “I’ve been busy outside for a whole day. Can you be gentle with me?” I pursed my lips. Although I knew that my attitude was not very good, I still rubbed my neck and said stubbornly, “You’re busy? Did you spend a whole night with those beautiful women?”

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 346

Bella’s POV:

“When did you see that I was busy with beautiful women all night?” Herbert walked towards me and asked me.

I turned my head away, but my nose was trying hard to smell the scent on Herbert, but I was still a little far away from him. I could only smell the smell of alcohol.

Although I didn’t smell Linda’s perfume on him, I still felt that he must be with Linda tonight!

The next second, he pressed me against the wall. Then he put his neck in front of my nose and said, “Only in this way can your nose smell if there is any perfume on my body!” I felt a little pain when he grabbed me. I wanted to push him away and said angrily, “What’s wrong with you? Let me go!” “I won’t let you go until you smell me clearly.” Herbert pressed me against the wall. “You…” I couldn’t catch my breath because of the pressure, but I also completely smelled the scent of Herbert.

Tonight, there was only the smell of wine and sweat on his body, as well as a strong smell of tobacco. Then, it was his body scent, and there was no other smell.

I didn’t smell the perfume of a woman, but I didn’t want to give up. I sniffed it intentionally or unintentionally, but there was indeed no other smell.

Herbert said, “I’ve let you down, haven’t ?” These words made me very angry. I pushed him away and shouted, “What’s there to be disappointed about? No matter what happens between you and any woman, it has nothing to do with me!”

After I said that, I turned around and went back to my room.

However, as soon as I took a step, my wrist was grabbed by him. Then my body was pulled back by him. I couldn’t control my balance and fell into a warm embrace. “You‘re jealous.” Herbert pressed my head against his chest. His words poked at the anguish in my heart.

But I didn’t say anything. In the past two days, my mood had always been very unstable. He liked to find fault with me. I didn’t like whatever he did. I didn’t even know why my mood became so irritable.

I was jealous. I was jealous that he was with Linda! I knew that was the reason. But I didn’t want to admit it at this time, at least in front of Herbert. It was like if I admitted my love for him. I would become a vulnerable person. I would be hurt by him at will.

The scars of the past were still there.

I still had no way to completely let go.

“You’re jealous, you still care about me and love me. No, you’ve always loved me. It’s just that you don’t want to admit it!” Herbert’s eyes were hot and sharp, like a sharp knife piercing through my disguise, or an eagle looking at its prey.

Out of instinct, I pushed him away and shouted, “Are you having a wishful thinking disorder? I didn’t love you anymore. You have no place in my heart!”

Herbert, however, was walking towards me. The distance between us was shortened bit by bit. “Bella, don’t lie to me anymore. You lied to yourself. You won’t fall in love with anyone, and I won’t fall in love with any woman. We are wasting our time now.”

“I didn’t fall in love with anyone else because I haven’t met someone suitable yet. As for you, humph, when were you loyal? You’ll fall in love with any beautiful women? Even if I don’t smell Linda’s perfume today, do you dare to say that you haven’t been with her tonight?” I asked,

I was protecting my poor self-esteem. What he said was right. I really wouldn’t fall in love with another man, because I had always loved him in my heart. Although this was the fact that I didn’t want to admit, I had to face it now.”

“I…” Herbert was about to speak.

I interrupted him without hesitation. “You don’t have to say it. I guessed right, didn’t I?”

“Bella, it’s not what you think. Let me explain, okay?” Herbert stepped forward and held my shoulder, looking nervous.

The more nervous he was, the more I knew that my guess was right.

It was like a cat scratching my heart with its sharp claws.

I pushed his hand away and said in a cold tone, “What else is there to talk about? What done is done. Why don’t you admit it? Why are you so hypocritical now?”

With that, I turned around, walked into my bedroom, and slammed the door shut.

I leaned against the door and closed my wearily eyes…

In the next few days, Herbert seemed to have disappeared, and I had never seen him again.

The pile of clothes and shoes sent from the shopping mall were put into the storage room on the first floor by Miranda.

At first, I thought that Herbert was on a business trip.

But in the next few days, I found that he had moved his clothes and shoes.

At noon on this day. I was feeding Lucky food at the dining table.

Miranda washed a basin of clothes and came out of the laundry room. She was about to hang it on the second floor.

“Miranda, go dry the clothes after dinner,” I said. Miranda immediately shook her head. “No, that won’t do. The clothes wore by Mr. Wharton are too unique. Not only do I have to wash hand wash them, I also have to dry them in time. Otherwise, there will be wrinkles.”

Hearing this, I pulled my lips and said, “Isn’t he on a business trip? Why does he change his clothes every day?”

“Mr. Wharton isn’t on a business trip. Every morning, he’ll come back to change clothes. At that time, you’ve already gone to send Lucas, so you won’t be able to see him…” As she spoke, Miranda didn’t continue.

Hearing this, I frowned. As I expected, Herbert was deliberately avoiding me. Every day, he came back to change clothes and checked on Lucky while I was out sending Lucas?” Every time I sent Lucas home, Lucky would call me dad. It turned out that he really did come back I’m going to dry the clothes.” Miranda said as she left. Watching Miranda leave, I didn’t feel good either.

What did Herbert mean? Was he avoiding me on purpose?

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 347

Bella’s POV: For the next few days, Herbert still hadn’t returned home. I wonder if he would only come back with a peace of mind if I was not here. It was just that when I thought about leaving. I was still a little reluctant.

I didn’t miss this luxurious villa, the luxurious decoration, and the facilities inside. I missed living with Lucas and Lucky.

Ring… Ring… At this time, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

I took my phone and looked down. It was an unknown number.

“Hello!”

“Bella, I’m Linda.” Then, Linda’s voice came from the other end.

Hearing that it was Linda, I was stunned!

Why did Linda call me?

What was her purpose?

Because of her ambiguous relationship with Herbert, my brain automatically drew her to the side of the enemy

“Bella, are you listening?” “Linda, is there… anything?” I said. At this time, Linda said with a smile, “It’s like this. The truth about the QT Company leaking the plan has been revealed. You were wronged, so you can go back to work in the company from tomorrow onwards.”

Hearing such sudden news, I was stunned!

“Linda, what… what did you say just now? Have you investigated it thoroughly?” “What’s wrong? Hasn’t Herbert told you yet?” Linda asked in surprise. “Tell me… what?” I didn’t know what had happened.

At this time, Linda seemed to be happier. She laughed and said, “Bella, I can’t explain this clearly on the phone.”

“Come to work tomorrow. Let’s meet and talk about it in detail, okay?” “Okay.” I nodded. “See you tomorrow.” Linda hung up the phone. After hanging up the phone, I was in a good mood. Although I didn’t know what happened for the time being. But now, at least I didn’t have to go to jail anymore. No matter what, this was something worth being happy about.

That night, I waited until midnight, but Herbert didn’t come back.

I knew that he wouldn’t come back, but I knew in my heart that he must have helped me this time. Anyway, I was also grateful to him.

The next morning, I sat in Linda’s office.

Linda was very happy. A large crystal vase was placed in the corner of the desk, with red roses and lilies in it.

Seeing this bunch of flowers, I felt a little uncomfortable. It must have been sent by Herbert again, right?

Linda sat in her seat and looked at the roses in the crystal vase. She said with a smile, “It’s very beautiful, isn’t it?”

“Yes.” I nodded.

“Herbert gives me a bunch every day.” Linda’s face became ruddy, and the smile on her face was even more obvious.

It could be seen that Linda was very happy. I didn’t know what to say, so I could only remain silent. Then, Linda restored her serious expression and said to me, “Bella, from today onwards, you will resume your job. You have been wronged recently, and your work ability is also very outstanding. So after Jessica left, the company decided that you will be the general manager of the sixth group, and you will immediately work. I hope that you can lead the sixth group to create good results in the future!

“Linda, where did Jessica go? I want to know… how did it suddenly become like this?” I asked.

At this time, Linda smiled again. “We still have to criticize Herbert about this. He didn’t even tell you.”

A happy smile appeared on Linda’s face.

Just like all the women passionately in love. Passionately in love? With Herbert?

I felt a sharp pain in my heart, but I still endured it.

After all, I was just an ex-wife of Herbert. I had no right to interfere with his relationship with other women.

Linda said with a smile, “Your matter has been completely investigated. It was Jessica who colluded with Jeremy to sell the information of the QT Company to the competitors. The two were taken away by the police. The company was very regretful about this matter. The company had always put Jessica in an important position, so the company dismissed them on the same day. Even if they don’t go to jail in the future, they can’t have a foothold in this field!” I should be very happy to hear that.

After all, this meant that I would not go to prison.

But I didn’t know why, but I wasn’t particularly happy. “Bella, I believe in your working ability. I’m sure you can lead the sixth group to get better results.” Linda was all smiles and her attitude was very gentle.

“Thank you, Linda. I will.” I nodded.

“There’s no need to thank me. Of course, I’ll take care of the person whom Herbert asked me to take care of,” Linda said with a smile.

Hearing this, I couldn’t help but raise my eyebrows. Herbert asked his woman to take care of his ex-wife? Heh, how ironic. “I’m going out to work.” I didn’t want to talk to her anymore, so I immediately left Linda’s office

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 348

Bella‘s POV: After coming out of Linda‘s office, I felt like I was in a dream. Selina and Jeremy had been punished for their actions.

After Selina left. I was promoted.

But I knew that if it weren’t for Herbert, I would probably have been fired and taken away by the police today

At this moment, I was very grateful to Herbert. If it weren‘t for him, I would have been in prison by now.

When I returned to the sixth group, I found that my colleagues had already moved my things into the office of Selina, and the things that Selina didn‘t have time to take away before were piled up in the storage room

Those female colleagues who used to push me away were very kind to me now.

This society was so realistic.

I went to the storeroom to take a look at Selina’s supplies. I asked someone to pack up and tidy up her things. I asked for her address and sent her things to her.

Sitting in front of the desk, I scanned the office of the project manager. I never dreamed that I would sit in this position overnight.

It was useless to sigh. I had to work hard in the future to prove that I was qualified for this position.

I glanced at the phone on my desk, picked it up for a long time, and dialed the number of Herbert.

However, the voice of the machine came from the other side of the phone. It said that the user’s phone was turned off and to call later.

After that, I edited a text message and sent it to him.

I‘ve already returned to work. Thank you for your help this time.” After more than an hour, I received a response from Herbert. Hearing the notification, I immediately picked up my phone and opened it. There was only one sentence inside, “You‘re welcome.”

I held my phone and looked at these words for a long time. The conclusion I came to was that our relationship was cold and alienated. It seemed that there was really nothing to say between us.

That night, I listened for a whole night, but I didn’t hear the sound of Herbert’s return. He didn’t come back.

Early the next morning, my eyes were a little swollen.

That morning, I took a document and went to Linda‘s office. This document needed her signature. I raised my head and was about to knock on the door when Linda‘s secretary, Sofia, stood up with a smile. “Miss Stepanek, Linda is on leave from today onwards. You have to wait for her to come back.”

Hearing this, I frowned, looked down at the document in my arms, and asked, “When will Linda come back? This document is very urgent.”

Sofia pursed her lips and said with a smile, “She asked the general manager for three days off. Maybe she and her boyfriend will be going on a vacation at the Puji Island. If they are very happy, it is very possible for them to stay for another two days.”

Linda‘s boyfriend, Herbert?

Although I was confused, I didn’t continue to ask, “Okay, I’ll come back in a few days.”

I nodded and went back to the office with the documents in my arms.

put the document on my desk. I was no longer in the mood to work.

It wasn‘t easy for me to get off work, so I ran straight to the villa of Herbert.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that Lucas was sitting in the living room watching cartoons. Lucky was sitting on the ground playing with toys. Miranda was cooking in the kitchen, and Gary was tidying up the house.

“Mommy, you‘re back?” Lucas greeted me when she saw me.

“Mom, mom.” Lucky clapped her little hands happily when she saw me.

I took my bag and went upstairs.

When I walked to the bedroom of Herbert, I saw that the door of the bedroom was closed. I reached out and gently pushed the door open. I walked in slowly, but there was no one inside.

I went to the wardrobe and reached out to push open the door. I glanced at the clothes hanging inside.

He had too much clothes,

For a moment, I couldn‘t figure out whether his clothes were missing or not. I checked his daily necessities again and found nothing wrong with them.

I sat down on the edge of the bed in low spirits.

Looking at the room, I felt ridiculous. Vacation at Puji Island?

It was hot over there, so he didn‘t have to wear too much clothes. As for daily necessities, they were indispensable for Herbert, who lived in a high–class hotel when he went out.

In fact, he only needed to bring a card and a mobile phone. How could he need any luggage?

At dinner time, I put on my clothes and went downstairs. At this time, both Lucas and Lucky were sitting at the table. As soon as I sat down, I opened my mouth and said, “Mommy, Daddy went on a business trip today!” Hearing this, my hand, which was holding my chopsticks, froze!

A business trip? Wasn’t it a vacation?

“Really? Where did he go on a business trip?” I reached out and put a mouthful of food in the bowl in front of the waiter.

“It‘s… some island?” Lucas rolled his eyes and thought for a long time, but he couldn‘t think of it. “Puji Island, right?”

A business trip? He was just lying to a child. I blamed him in my heart. “That‘s right. It‘s the Puji Island!” Lucas nodded with all his might.

Then, I felt very uncomfortable.

Herbert really went on a vacation with Linda. It seemed that their relationship developed very fast, and they had reached the level of couples.

My problem had been solved. There was no need for me to stay in Herbert’s house any longer.

I had to get a place as soon as possible. Maybe when they come back from the vacation, Linda would live here directly.

The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I felt. After a night of tossing and turning, although I was very reluctant to part with Lucas and Lucky, I still decided to move out of Herbert‘s villa.

To bring life back to its previous state. I could stay with Lucas every weekend, and I could take care of Lucky at night. In the next few days, I cleaned up the house and sent out all the orders accumulated over the past few days. In short, I didn‘t have time to spare.

This kind of method was very useful. At least I wouldn’t keep thinking about it endlessly.

On this morning, as soon as I entered the office, my colleague came forward and said with a smile, “Bella, Linda is back from vacation. You need her to sign the document in our group as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will affect the progress.”

Hearing this, I nodded. “I‘ll go right away.” After entering my office, I stood in front of my desk in a daze. From yesterday till now, Linda had been on leave for three days. It seemed that their trip to the Puji Island did not last long. As soon as I thought of Herbert and Linda, I felt sad for a while. I took a deep breath and adjusted my mood.

I found the document that I wanted Linda to sign Without thinking too much, I took the document and walked out of the office. When I arrived at Linda‘s office, Linda‘s secretary, Sofia, stood up and said with a smile, “Bella, are you looking for Linda to sign the document?” “Yes.” I nodded. Then I looked at the door in front of me and said, “I heard that Linda is back from her leave.” Sofia nodded. “Yes, she is. But today, our company has a big case to deal with Wharton Group. Linda has gone to the meeting room.”

“With the Wharton Group?” I couldn‘t help but frown.

Wharton Group? Did Herbert want to work with Linda? It seemed that after three days of vacation, he and Linda got to know each other very well!

Bride of Mr. Billion Chapter 349

Bella‘s POV:

Sofia smiled. “You don’t know yet, do you? Mr. Wharton from the Wharton Group gave a very important case, which has been fought over by several powerful senior executives, to our company. Even the general manager is in awe of Linda. With the case from Wharton Group, we’ll definitely get a generous bonus this year.”

Hearing this, I held the document tightly in my arms.

I still knew about Herbert. He never decided work related matters because of personal feelings.

Of course, he would not mix relationship with work. Although this company was also a relatively large company, there were also a few more companies that were more famous than Stephen Firm in A City.

If it was just based on strength, Stephen Firm might not necessarily be able to get the big case of the Wharton Group. Now that Herbert was willing to give the business to Stephen Firm, it seemed that he valued Linda very much. Perhaps he was serious about his feelings for Linda this time? “Bella, if you are in a hurry, why don‘t you go directly to the conference room to find Linda? The signing ceremony is set at 10 o‘clock. It‘s only 9:30. Linda still has time.”

“Okay, thank you.” I thanked her and turned to walk to the conference room.

I told myself, “Even if Herbert announced that he was going to marry Linda today, I must remain calm.”

I had already separated from Herbert. This day would always come.

Herbert would definitely get married again. Even if there was no Linda today, there would be someone else tomorrow. So I should play my own part

When I came to the door of the conference room, I saw that the door was not closed very tightly. When I was about to open the door, I heard a familiar voice.

“Linda, can you listen to me?”

This was a man’s deep voice, which was very familiar to me.

Hearing his voice, I became nervous.

Herbert? He came to sign the contract in person today?

Generally speaking, the president would not be present in this kind of signing ceremony in person. Normally the vice president would be enough. Or even a manager would make sense. It seemed that Herbert really cared about Linda.

Through the crack in the door, I saw that the meeting room was ready. There were even flowers and red wine on the oval conference table. Linda also attached great importance to the signing ceremony I wanted to turn around and leave. After all, it was something between Herbert and Linda.

It had nothing to do with me.

When I turned around and was about to leave, I suddenly heard Linda crying inside. I couldn‘t help but stop.

08:35 “What else do you want to say to me? Are you saying that it‘s impossible between us?” Linda‘s voice seemed to be crying.

“Linda, didn’t we talk this through? I promised to accompany you to take a vacation at Puji Island, and then we‘ll be ordinary friends when we come back. How can you go back on your word now? It‘s not like you.” The man’s voice was full of depression and helplessness.

“Herbert, I really love you. I thought that as long as you were willing to spend time to understand me, you would definitely fall in love with me. I thought that you would definitely have feelings for me after this holiday…” Linda’s voice became louder.

When I heard these words outside, I was stunned.

According to their conversation, it meant that Herbert had no interest in Linda at all. He didn‘t like Linda.

But since he didn‘t like her, why did he send Linda a bunch of flowers every day? Why did he accompany Linda to be on a vacation in Puji Island and give such a big business to her? Wasn‘t he deliberately creating an ambiguous relationship to give Linda an illusion? At this time, Herbert frowned and said, “Linda, why don‘t you understand? Even if I spend time with you for a year, I won‘t fall in love with you.”

Hearing this, Linda seemed to be out of control. She stepped forward and threw herself into Herbert’s arms. She said anxiously, “No! It’s you who refused to give me a chance. As long as you are willing to spend time with me, you will definitely fall in love with me!”

Standing outside, I was in a complicated mood when I saw this scene. I took a step back and was about to leave when a voice came from behind.

“Bella, have you found Linda?”

I looked back. It was Linda’s secretary, Sofia.

Sofia‘s voice was very loud, and the door of the meeting room was not closed tightly, so the people inside must have heard it. “Oh, Linda is talking to someone, so I‘ll wait a minute.” I had not finished my words, The door behind me was opened. Linda was the one who came to open it.
