Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert) novel Chapter 315

Chapter 315

Bella‘s POV:

Before I could react, Linda said with a laugh, “To be able to get Mr. Wharton‘s help, I think you must have a very good relationship with him?” Linda‘s eyes were obviously testing.

I didn‘t want Linda to know about the relationship between me and Herbert. After all, it was my own business. I shouldn‘t let it be involved in work.

So, the next moment, I shook my head and said, “Linda, I don‘t have any relationship with Herbert for the time being. Maybe he helped us for some other reason.” Linda said, “Oh, so that‘s how it is. Could it be that you have a friend who knows Herbert?” At this moment, I thought, “He should help me for the sake of his two young children, shouldn‘t he? Since I refused him last time, he hasn‘t appeared in front of me for months.” “Maybe. Maybe my friend knew that it has been difficult for me to bring up my child alone after I divorced,” I thought for a moment and said. Linda was shocked. “Have you ever been divorced? And you have a child with you?” “Yes, that‘s why I work hard. You know, it‘s very difficult for a divorced woman to bring up a child.” | didn‘t want to win Linda‘s sympathy, but I didn‘t want her to continue to inquire about my personal affairs.

Later, Linda became even more enthusiastic about me. She also said that it was not easy for me to take care of my child alone, so she wanted to let Jessica pay more attention to me. When there was a chance for promotion next time, she would also pay attention to it for me. In short, she said a lot of good words before letting me out. Out of Linda‘s office, I heard Linda‘s secretary making a phone call, but the content of the conversation made me discover something new. “Excuse me, is it Connor? I‘m Linda‘s secretary. I‘ve already helped Linda book the International Restaurant‘s revolving restaurant. Could you please tell Mr. Wharton that at seven o‘clock tonight, Linda will wait at the entrance of the International Restaurant?” As I walked forward, I heard the conversation. I couldn‘t help frowning and thinking, “The International Restaurant‘s revolving restaurant is a very high–end and romantic place. Not only is it expensive, but the reservation has to be made at least one week in advance. Generally, only couples go there.” Linda had booked a place like this to treat Herbert to a meal. Her purpose was very clear. No wonder she kept asking about the relationship between me and Herbert. It turned out that she wanted to pursue him. At first, I felt strange. Why did Linda like a proud and overbearing man like Herbert?

But later, I understood.

Linda was such an excellent woman, and she was also a beautiful woman. She would certainly look down on ordinary men.

Herbert, who was smart, handsome, and rich, would indeed attract many women‘s attention.

At this moment, the picture of Herbert and Linda standing together flashed through my mind. They looked good together. The handsome man and the beautiful woman were both successful in their career. It could be said that they were a perfect match.

They were already on a date. I was sure that they would have a good talk tonight and even something else would happen. I knew very well that it was impossible for me and Herbert to be together, so it was normal for him to be with any other woman.

I repeatedly told myself about this, but I couldn‘t help feeling a little depressed.

Yes, my heart was saying, “I don‘t want to see him with another woman.”

No matter how unhappy I was, I still decided to restrain myself. After work this day, i had to sort out the materials, so I left a few minutes later. I carried my bag and walked into the elevator. When the elevator was about to close, a figure suddenly ran into the elevator.

I took a closer look and found that it was Selina. I couldn‘t help but frown.

that it was me in the elevator, Selina pressed the button to the first floor, sneered, and said, “I, I really underestimated you. It‘s been so long, and those two men are still after you. I really don‘t know what means you used to make them crazy for you!”

“What do you mean?” I questioned her.

They? Who were these two men? Herbert and Klein? Then, she said disdainfully, “Stop pretending. You must have asked them to help you! One of them is the president of the Wharton Group. He is very capable. The other is a famous lawyer. He has a wide network of connections. They are all very powerful bosses. Bella, what else can you do except relying on men? You have two very powerful men to help you. I wouldn‘t dare to provoke you in the future!”

Ding!

At this time, the elevator reached the first floor and the door opened. Selina glanced at me with sarcasm, disdain, and dissatisfaction in her eyes. Then she turned around and left quickly with her bag. Selina‘s words and stare made me angry. But I quickly suppressed it. After all, I couldn‘t find any words to refute. This time, I did rely on those two men. I didn‘t expect that both Klein and Herbert would help me. I was just an ordinary woman. I didn‘t have any stunning beauty. And I didn‘t have a very powerful ability. They must have helped me out of their own considerations. Perhaps for Klein, it was out of guilt? And for Herbert, it was because of the two children? After all, if I didn‘t live a good life, the children would also be implicated.

I sent a message to Klein, thanking him for his help, but I also asked him not to interfere in my affairs in the future.

As for Herbert, I picked up my cell phone and typed a message. After thinking for a while. I deleted the text message.

I was too clear about Herbert‘s temperament. No matter what my opinion was, he would not respect it. He would still do what he thought was good.

So no matter what I said, it was useless. Moreover, he must be on a romantic date with Linda tonight. I‘d better not disturb them. I couldn‘t fall asleep that night. The next morning, I came to the office. I was very happy to hear that Jeremy had asked for a week‘s leave.

Selina didn‘t give me any trouble. After Jeremy left, I could get along with my female colleagues normally, so I had a much easier time this week. On Friday afternoon, after work, I took the things I bought during the lunch break and rushed back home.
