Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 351

Bella’s POV:

My colleagues were talking about it. “Linda and Mr. Wharton, did they have a fight?” “I‘m sure. Linda is still angry. Mr. Wharton is trying to coax her.” “Linda is so blissful to have a boyfriend like Mr. Wharton.”

“Right. He’s a handsome, capable boss. If I were Linda, as long as he gave me a glance, I wouldn’t be angry.”

“Linda is not like you. She is also a beautiful and capable woman…”

Listening to these words, I felt that there was a big difference between their speculation and the real situation.

But I didn’t say anything and just continued to observe carefully.

The general manager raised his glass to give Linda a toast, and so did the other executives of the company

At this time, Herbert stepped forward in time to block the liquor for Linda. He had only drank a little but for Linda, he drank a few cups of white wine.

Seeing this, the general manager laughed loudly. “Mr. Wharton, you really are a gentleman.”

“Linda is my friend. Of course, I have to take care of her. Besides, it‘s impolite for a beautiful woman to drink too much with you men.” Herbert‘s tone was cold.

“Yes, yes, yes, let‘s drink.” The general manager raised his glass again. At this point, Herbert was not like before. He drank one glass after another with Stephen Firm‘s men.

Linda stepped forward to help Herbert, so she drank a lot.

All of a sudden, everyone burst into laughter.

“It’s true that Linda and Mr. Wharton, are a match made in heaven. Look, both are afraid that each other will drink too much. They‘ve always been drinking for each other. They‘re so loving!”

“Mr. Wharton, Linda, have you already decided on your relationship?”

“Can you stop making a fuss? In fact, we…” Linda blushed all of a sudden. She wanted to explain, but she didn‘t know what to say.

At this time, Herbert suddenly said, “In fact, Linda has never accepted my pursuit. So, whether I am Linda‘s prince charming or not, it still needs time to test!”

Hearing this, everyone sighed.

Herbert pursued Linda, but Linda didn’t agree.

This was really beyond everyone‘s expectations.. Therefore, the general manager then said to Linda, “Linda, don’t be too picky. Mr. Wharton is such an outstanding man.” Linda forced a smile and did not speak.

Chapter 351

At this time, Connor, who was sitting next to the general manager, immediately tried to smooth things over. In an instant, everyone’s attention was once again focused on drinking.

I heard it clearly from the side. Herbert was a gentleman when it came to Linda. Today, he made everyone think that he couldn‘t court Linda, but in fact, he respected and protected Linda. But since he didn‘t like Linda, why did he provoke Linda? In my heart, I secretly cursed him. He was a scum. It was almost ten o‘clock before the meeting ended. Everyone left the table one after another. I carried my bag with one hand and held the wall with the other, feeling a little dizzy.

At this moment, a strong arm suddenly held me, and my heart skipped a beat!

This arm was strong. It was so familiar with it. I was overjoyed and turned to look at it, but the happy smile froze on my face

The person holding me was not Herbert, who I had imagined, but the assistant of Herbert, Connor. At this moment, I was indescribably disappointed.

“Miss Stepanek, you drank too much.” Connor asked with concern.

“I’m fine, thank you!” I replied.

After that, I followed my colleagues into the elevator, and Connor left with Herbert. My colleagues began to talk about it.

“Connor is the special assistant of the president of the Wharton Group, Herbert. It is said that he has a lot of power in the company.” “Right. Although his position is only that of the special assistant of Herbert, in actual fact, his power is even greater than that of the vice president of the company.”

“Bella, what‘s the relationship between you and Connor?” “Nothing special”

I replied with one sentence.

The elevator just reached the first floor. I walked straight out of the elevator.

At this time, I saw that Herbert was holding Linda‘s shoulder. Linda should be a little drunk, and Herbert was protecting her. The general manager laughed. “Mr. Wharton, are you going to my friend’s newly opened bar?”

“No. Linda drank too much. I‘ll take her home.” Herbert‘s expression was still cold.

“Alright, I‘ll see you again. I hope we can have a good time working together in the next few days.” At this time, Herbert said, “As long as Linda is in Stephen Firm, I will naturally take care of Stephen Firm. Do you understand what I mean?”

Upon hearing this, the general manager immediately nodded and said, “Understood, understood, I will definitely put her in an important position in the future!”

These words made Herbert very satisfied. He looked up in this direction, and I immediately stood up straight, thinking that he was looking at me. The next moment, Connor walked quickly to the front of Herbert. He whispered something to Connor, and then walked out of the hotel lobby with Linda in his arms, surrounded by the crowd.

For a moment, I was left here alone.

Looking at the back of Herbert who was leaving with Linda in his arms, I suddenly felt so lonely
