Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert) novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25

Bella‘s POV I was not in a hurry to put down my phone. Instead, I continued, “Dear, I want to throw up when I smell the greasy smell. Let‘s have a light meal, shall we? Well, well, let‘s meet at noon. Bye, husband!”

After saying so much in one breath, I hung up the phone immediately. When I looked up, I was immediately stunned!

Oh, my God

When did Herbert start to stand beside me?

I looked up again and saw that Herbert was looking at me with a very serious expression.

I lowered my head instantly and didn‘t dare to look at him anymore.

He must have heard what I said just now.

This was too embarrassing.

At this time, the financial manager, Gary Ackerman, who was standing next to Herbert, hurriedly said, “Bella, how can you make a private phone call when you are working?” “Manager, I‘m sorry.” I stood up and said nervously. Bella secretly glanced at Herbert and found that his expression was still very serious. The manager put in a good word for me. “Mr. Wharton, you know Bella very well. She has always worked very hard at work. She usually doesn‘t answer private calls at work. Is it because...she‘s pregnant? Most likely, her family is worried about her.” “There‘s no reason for her to pick up private calls during work hours. All her hard work in this month has been deducted!” After that, he turned around and left the office. “Goodbye, Mr. Wharton!” The manager followed him and saw him off. Joey frowned and shook her head at me. I knew she was trying to say that I was unlucky.

I sighed and sat in my seat. Two hundred dollars for a month was gone.

After Herbert left, the manager came over and said, “Bella, it‘s the first time that Mr. Wharton been assigned to inspect a company. Why are you looking for such trouble? Because of you, this has left a bad impression for Mr. Wharton.” “I‘ll be careful next time.” I could only lower my head and apologize.

Alas...” The manager went back to his office with his hands clasped behind his back and sighed.

After the manager left, Joey came over and whispered, “It‘s too realistic!” “You invited me to lunch at noon this month. I‘ve lost all my work,” I said. “You have two husbands now. One is your real husband, and the other is your fake husband. It‘s not your turn to invite me to dinner.” Joey said and went back immediately.

“Sure enough, money is higher than our friendship.” I complained in a low voice, secretly saying that was unlucky.

Near noon, I received a text message from my phone.

23283 “I‘ll wait for you at the restaurant at noon, Herbert.”

Seeing this text message, I felt a little embarrassed because I had already agreed to Hank‘s

invitation.

I thought about it for a while. I didn‘t dare to provoke the Herbert, so I made an excuse to call Hank and make another appointment.

I said seriously, “Herbert asked me to go. I don‘t know what he wants to do! It‘s great to have you with me.”
