Chapter 103
Bella’s POV
For some reason, Herbert and Caroline had a quarrel, and then they left in advance.
The party was about to end.
Klein and I were about to leave as well.
While saying goodbye, Mrs. Reina tugged at my hand and said, “Miss Stepanek, thank you for your help.”
“Mrs. Reina, it’s my honor.” I said with a smile.
“You are like me when I was young. I hope we can meet next time.” said Mrs. Reina.
“We will.” I nodded.
Although I said so, I knew in my heart that there was a big difference between my identity and Mrs. Reina’s. She and I were not from the same world. I probably wouldn’t have a chance to see her again in the future.
Mrs. Reina was not as arrogant as some noble ladies. On the contrary, she was very kind and respectable. After sending me home, at the entrance of the estate, Klein insisted on getting out of the car and sending me to the door. “There’s no need to send me off. I can go back myself.” I refused Klein’s offer. Klein continued to send me into the community. Laughing, he said, “This sort of old community is very unsafe at night. You should be careful.” “Thank you.” I didn’t continue to refuse. Although this building was in the center of the city, it was indeed old, but the rent was cheap. In order to save money, I chose this place. The biggest advantage was it was very close to the company. In order to cover the living expenses of my mother and sister, although my salary was not low, I needed to save some money.
After we reached the corridor, I turned around and smiled. “I’m here!”
Klein stood there, reaching out to stroke the back of his head. He didn’t seem to be preparing to
leave.
He looked up at the sky. “The moon is so beautiful today.” I looked up at the moon and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. I suddenly felt a little cold, so I wrapped my arms around my shoulders. After all, I was wearing a strapless dress tonight. Klein hurriedly took off his suit, wanting to put it on for me. I took a step back and rejected him. “Mr. Wharton, I think your jacket can only be worn on your girlfriend. It’s not suitable for me to wear it.” I was reminding him on purpose that he already had a girlfriend. He should keep a distance from me.
Klein withdrew his hand and pulled his suit into his arms. He said, “Actually…”
Before Klein could finish speaking, I interrupted him. “I was rash for what had happened.”
“I went to deliver medicine to you in the evening, and I was drenched in the rain. I didn’t have a car to go home, so I could only take a shower at your house and put on your shirt temporarily. In fact, I should be glad that the person I met last time was Herbert, not your girlfriend”
It was dark in the old corridor, and the only light on the corridor was also unusually dark. Especially when I came back a little later, I was still a little scared
