Chapter 131
Bella’s POV: She was so young and beautiful, but she was seriously ill. Moreover, Caroline was always full of momentum and never showed weakness.
Perhaps everyone had their own troubles and difficulties.
God loved me very much. At least I was healthy and didn’t suffer from illness. “So you’ve been taking care of her?” I asked. Herbert nodded. “She’s in poor health and poor in financial, so I rented a house for her. Miranda has been taking care of her. I can give her good living conditions, find the best doctor to treat her, and give her all the money to take care of her. But I never thought of using my feelings to take care of her. I don’t love her anymore, and I’ve told her about it.” My emotions were a little complicated. Herbert was a kind person. But sometimes he was very confused. Why didn’t he explain it to me? And why did he let me misunderstand him all the time? Was it because he didn’t see his feelings for me clearly? If I had known about this before, perhaps we wouldn’t have had any conflicts. The next moment, I raised my fist and pounded it on his chest. “Why are you telling me these now? Do you know that Caroline said that the person you love is not me, but her! I was very sad! She said that you married me because I was pregnant at that time.”
Herbert did not fight back, but held me in his arms. He pressed his chin against my chin and said gently, “I’m sorry, Bella, it’s all my fault. I did fall in love with Caroline once, but it’s all in the past. I have to admit that ever since I saw you for the first time, I was attracted by you. I am a very stubborn and proud person. When I couldn’t see you, I always missed you. When I saw you, I always liked to make trouble for you and quarreled with you. But please believe that I love you, I really love you.” I looked up and tilted my head to look at him. I couldn’t help laughing. “What are you laughing at?” He asked, pinching my chin. “In the past, I only knew that you were good at debating. I didn’t expect you to learn to express your love now.” I was very happy. At this moment, it seemed that the air was sweet. I thought it was a formal farewell, but I didn’t expect to solve our contradiction. This was a brand new beginning between us. “That depends on whether I’m willing to say it or not.” said Herbert. “You mean you didn’t want to coax me in the past, did you?” I took the opportunity to push Herbert away.
Herbert immediately hugged me and said, “I wanted to coax you before, but you didn’t give me a chance!”
“Nonsense!” I reached out to hit him.
He grabbed my hand first and then kissed me. This kiss was not fierce, wild, nor was there any punishment. It was soft, slow, and filled with love…
This feeling was too blissful and unreal. Did we love each other?
When I suspected the authenticity of all this, he held me even tighter.
His temperature, his heartbeat, and his kiss all reminded me that everything was true.
This feeling was really good. There was no longer any suspicion, complaints, or uncertainty in the past
When the temperature in my body kept rising and my desire was awakened, I quickly pushed him
away.
“What’s wrong?” Herbert’s voice was hoarse.
“My period is not over yet,” I replied. Herbert touched his nose and asked, “How many days are there left?”
