Chapter 37
Bella’s POV: The next day, I was in a bad mood for the whole morning in my office.
Last night, he didn’t go home.
He was really angry!
I only hope to arrive earlier at noon.
I’ll go to the Green restaurant at noon to have lunch. I should be able to see Herbert. I’ll apologize to him then.
It was finally noon. As soon as I got off work, I immediately carried my bag and went to the Green restaurant.
Connor was currently standing in front of the door, his expression a bit strange.
“Hi, Connor.” I greeted Connor, and then stepped inside. Connor instead reached out his hand to stop
- me.
I looked at him in confusion.
Lowe explained, “Madam, Miss Briden is inside.” I looked at Connor in astonishment, then looked at the door in front of me. I had a feeling that it wasn’t a good thing for him to bring Emma here at this time.
Then, I stepped forward and gently pushed the door open
As soon as the door opened, I saw Herbert sitting side by side with Emma. Herbert was wearing a white shirt, and his face seemed a little red. He must have drunk some wine. Emma was sitting in front of him in a red V-neck shirt. Her collar had been opened to her chest, and her face was full of smiles,
The two of them sat very intimately.
Al this moment, I suddenly felt a pain in my heart. I didn’t understand why the man who could still hold me to sleep two days ago could be so intimate with other women now.
“Herbert, have a taste of this fish. It’s very delicious!” Emma said.
At this time, Herbert looked up at me.
I’m sure he saw me
The next second, I heard him say. “You are so beautiful today.”
Emma touched her face excitedly and said, “Really? Is my clothes beautiful or my face?”
Herbert replied, ‘The clothes are beautiful.”
He paused for a moment and continued, “You‘re more beautiful.” Grinning, she gently pushed backward on Herbert’s chest…
I don’t want to watch anymore.
I withdrew my hand. The door was closed, but I could still hear the laughter Inside
I slowly turned around and looked in the direction of the exit. “Please let Mr. Wharton know. I’ll have
15
lunch by myself in the future.”
Before Connor could reply, I already turned around and left. I was scared that I would shed tears in front of him. I ran out of the restaurant.
I looked up at the sky, but in the end, I didn’t let my tears fall out of my eyes. I told myself, “I can’t shed tears. In fact, I had already expected today’s situation when I was getting the marriage certificate with Herbert. Why am I still so stupid to want to give my feelings to him? He is a man who has gathered all his glory. How could he like an ordinary woman like me?”
And the two days at the resort, it was just a dream. I’m about to wake up from my dream… Herbert’s POV: I don’t know who told Emma that I’ll be in this restaurant at noon.
Just like my hostility toward Hank.
