Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 315

Bella‘s POV:

Before I could react, Linda said with a laugh, “To be able to get Mr. Wharton‘s help, I think you must

have a very good relationship with him?” Linda‘s eyes were obviously testing.

I didn‘t want Linda to know about the relationship between me and Herbert. After all, it was my own

business. I shouldn‘t let it be involved in work.

So, the next moment, I shook my head and said, “Linda, I don‘t have any relationship with Herbert for

the time being. Maybe he helped us for some other reason.” Linda said, “Oh, so that‘s how it is. Could

it be that you have a friend who knows Herbert?” At this moment, I thought, “He should help me for the

sake of his two young children, shouldn‘t he? Since I refused him last time, he hasn‘t appeared in front

of me for months.” “Maybe. Maybe my friend knew that it has been difficult for me to bring up my child

alone after I divorced,” I thought for a moment and said. Linda was shocked. “Have you ever been

divorced? And you have a child with you?” “Yes, that‘s why I work hard. You know, it‘s very difficult for a

divorced woman to bring up a child.” | didn‘t want to win Linda‘s sympathy, but I didn‘t want her to

continue to inquire about my personal affairs.

Later, Linda became even more enthusiastic about me. She also said that it was not easy for me to

take care of my child alone, so she wanted to let Jessica pay more attention to me. When there was a

chance for promotion next time, she would also pay attention to it for me. In short, she said a lot of

good words before letting me out. Out of Linda‘s office, I heard Linda‘s secretary making a phone call,

but the content of the conversation made me discover something new. “Excuse me, is it Connor? I‘m

Linda‘s secretary. I‘ve already helped Linda book the International Restaurant‘s revolving restaurant.

Could you please tell Mr. Wharton that at seven o‘clock tonight, Linda will wait at the entrance of the

International Restaurant?” As I walked forward, I heard the conversation. I couldn‘t help frowning and

thinking, “The International Restaurant‘s revolving restaurant is a very high–end and romantic place.

Not only is it expensive, but the reservation has to be made at least one week in advance. Generally,

only couples go there.” Linda had booked a place like this to treat Herbert to a meal. Her purpose was

very clear. No wonder she kept asking about the relationship between me and Herbert. It turned out

that she wanted to pursue him. At first, I felt strange. Why did Linda like a proud and overbearing man

like Herbert?

But later, I understood.

Linda was such an excellent woman, and she was also a beautiful woman. She would certainly look

down on ordinary men.

Herbert, who was smart, handsome, and rich, would indeed attract many women‘s attention.

At this moment, the picture of Herbert and Linda standing together flashed through my mind. They

looked good together. The handsome man and the beautiful woman were both successful in their

career. It could be said that they were a perfect match.

They were already on a date. I was sure that they would have a good talk tonight and even something

else would happen. I knew very well that it was impossible for me and Herbert to be together, so it was

normal for him to be with any other woman.

I repeatedly told myself about this, but I couldn‘t help feeling a little depressed.

Yes, my heart was saying, “I don‘t want to see him with another woman.”

No matter how unhappy I was, I still decided to restrain myself. After work this day, i had to sort out the

materials, so I left a few minutes later. I carried my bag and walked into the elevator. When the elevator

was about to close, a figure suddenly ran into the elevator.

I took a closer look and found that it was Selina. I couldn‘t help but frown.

that it was me in the elevator, Selina pressed the button to the first floor, sneered, and said, “I, I really

underestimated you. It‘s been so long, and those two men are still after you. I really don‘t know what

means you used to make them crazy for you!”

“What do you mean?” I questioned her.

They? Who were these two men? Herbert and Klein? Then, she said disdainfully, “Stop pretending.

You must have asked them to help you! One of them is the president of the Wharton Group. He is very

capable. The other is a famous lawyer. He has a wide network of connections. They are all very

powerful bosses. Bella, what else can you do except relying on men? You have two very powerful men

to help you. I wouldn‘t dare to provoke you in the future!”

Ding!

At this time, the elevator reached the first floor and the door opened. Selina glanced at me with

sarcasm, disdain, and dissatisfaction in her eyes. Then she turned around and left quickly with her bag.

Selina‘s words and stare made me angry. But I quickly suppressed it. After all, I couldn‘t find any words

to refute. This time, I did rely on those two men. I didn‘t expect that both Klein and Herbert would help

me. I was just an ordinary woman. I didn‘t have any stunning beauty. And I didn‘t have a very powerful

ability. They must have helped me out of their own considerations. Perhaps for Klein, it was out of

guilt? And for Herbert, it was because of the two children? After all, if I didn‘t live a good life, the

children would also be implicated.

I sent a message to Klein, thanking him for his help, but I also asked him not to interfere in my affairs in

the future.

As for Herbert, I picked up my cell phone and typed a message. After thinking for a while. I deleted the

text message.

I was too clear about Herbert‘s temperament. No matter what my opinion was, he would not respect it.

He would still do what he thought was good.

So no matter what I said, it was useless. Moreover, he must be on a romantic date with Linda tonight.

I‘d better not disturb them. I couldn‘t fall asleep that night. The next morning, I came to the office. I was

very happy to hear that Jeremy had asked for a week‘s leave.

Selina didn‘t give me any trouble. After Jeremy left, I could get along with my female colleagues

normally, so I had a much easier time this week. On Friday afternoon, after work, I took the things I

bought during the lunch break and rushed back home.

I hadn‘t seen Lucas for two weeks. I missed him very much. Tonight, I was going to make a big meal for

him and Lucky. Of course, for Joey, who had always supported me, as well. I was busy in the kitchen,

hoping that I could finish cleaning all the ingredients before Lucas and Lucky entered the kitchen.

The kitchen window was open, and I kept paying attention to the sound of cars driving into the

community downstairs.

Soon, at about seven o‘clock, a black Bentley drove into the community.

Herbert‘s car was really eye–catching, and it was very easy to recognize. So when I saw the car

coming in, I rushed out of the house before I could take off the apron on my body.

My hair was tied to the back of my head with a rubber band. I was wearing a white floral home dress

with blue flowers and an apron that was filled with the pictures of Snoopy, and I was holding a spatula

in my hand. It was really funny to rush downstairs like this. I missed Lucas very much. Lucas jumped

out of the car and hugged my thigh. He looked up and said excitedly, “Mommy, I missed you so much!”

“Mommy misses you too.” I reached out to touch my son‘s chubby little face and felt extremely happy

Then, Connor led Lucky, who was dressed like a little princess, to me.

“Mom, mom.” Lucky, who was one head shorter than Lucas, pulled my dress with her little hand. I

immediately bent down and picked her up. Then said with a smile, “Lucky, I‘ll cook a big meal for you

today. And Lucas, they are all your favorite dishes!” “Wow, wow.” Lucky could not express herself very

well yet, so she just clapped her little hands. When Lucas heard this, he was excited at first, then he

suddenly frowned and said worriedly, “Mommy, can you ask daddy to have dinner with us?”

Hearing this, I frowned and said, “It‘s already so late, and your daddy can‘t make it.” In fact, I didn‘t

want to have dinner with Herbert, so I said that on purpose. However, in the next second, Lucas said in

a low voice, “Daddy is in the car!“
