Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert) novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163

Bella’s POV

In the evening. I went home.

Joey said, “I’ve prepared dinner. We can have some wine tonight.

“Okay.” I nodded.

Soon, the table was filled with red wine and dinner. The dishes prepared by Joey were very sumptuous, filling the whole table.

Joey poured me a glass of red wine, raised it, and said with a smile, “Come on, from now on, let’s say goodbye to the past and start a new life. Let’s find a job together tomorrow!”

I put down the glass in my hand, Joey asked, “Bella, what’s wrong with you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?” “No!” I quickly raised my head and denied. Then I said seriously, “Joey, I’ve thought about it for an entire afternoon and finally made a decision!” “What decision? Don’t scare me.” Joey looked serious.

I said, “I’ve decided to leave the city for a while and find a job in the neighboring city.”

Hearing that, Joey asked in surprise, “The neighboring city? You don’t have any friends or relatives,

and…”

I know Joey was saying this for my own good, but I’ve already made up my mind. I interrupted her. “This place leaves me with too much sadness. Every familiar place is tearing open my wounds./ need a new environment. I have to go!”

Joey lowered her head and thought for a few minutes. Then she looked up and said, “I understand you. You should go to a new environment. Time can make you forget everything. In fact, I should go with you, but my current situation…” I quickly held Joey’s hand and said, “Joey, my dear friend, I know you want to accompany me, but I also know how difficult it is for you. You must go back every week to take care of your mother. Believe me, it won’t be long. I may come back after recovering in a year or two. By the way, there is still half a year before the rental of the house is due. You can continue to live here. I just took 2,000 dollars from the bank. You can use it first!” With that, I took out some cash from my bag and placed it on the table.

Joey immediately shook her head and said, “No, you have paid half a year’s rent for this house. It has solved my current difficulty. I can’t continue taking your money. You also need money.”

I smiled and placed the money into Joey’s hand. “Don’t worry. I still have some compensation that Klein and Vivian gave me last time, which is enough for me to use for a period of time. Now that Betty and Hank are married, I don’t have to continue to pay for her living expenses in the future. My financial pressure is relieved a little. You lost your job this time because of me. You should accept this money.” Joey was silent for a few minutes and said, “Just treat it as I borrow the money from you. I’ll pay you back when I have money in the future.”

“As long as I can make a fortune, I can even pay you back ten times. The main problem is when can! become rich?” Joey sighed. “Maybe you will marry a rich man in the future!” I teased. “Forget it. I trust myself more. You found a rich husband, but.” Joey suddenly stopped and covered her mouth Joey said nervously, “Bella, I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t use my brain when I spoke!” “I understand. Come on, let’s not talk about those unhappy things. Let’s finish these bottles of red wine today!” I raised my glass and drank it.
