Chapter 389
Bella‘s POV: “What are you thinking about?” I asked. Herbert glanced at me and said, “It‘s nothing. It‘s about work.” Herbert didn‘t want to mention anything about himself. I took the initiative to ask, but he didn‘t want to communicate with me.
This made me a little unhappy.
“I‘m sleepy. I‘m going to sleep.” After that, I turned around and lay down with my back to him. Then, he turned off the wall lamp in the room.
It was dark in the room, with only a little moonlight shining through the window.
My eyes were still open. I didn‘t know what Herbert was thinking about. He didn‘t want to tell me what happened to him, and he didn‘t want to remarry me. “Does he not want to live with me? Or does he have other ideas in his heart?”
I could feel that he didn‘t have any other women because he didn‘t have many social activities now. He would come home after work. Of course, he always went to New York these days. Sometimes he lived there for a week. Could it be that in New York...
No! That was impossible. Herbert was not a playboy. He wouldn‘t keep any women in New York.
I didn‘t dare to ask. If I found out that he was not ready to get married, I would be sad. After all, I had given birth to the two children for him. Now I wanted a sense of security. A hand came from behind and wrapped around my waist. I lowered my head and looked at the hand on my waist. Although I had something on my mind, I still covered the big hand with my hand. “It‘s all right if we don‘t get married. Anyway, there is no difference between now and after marriage.” I would focus on my career. Maybe it could distract my attention. The next morning, I sat at my desk and made a decision.
I was going to resign, and then I would start my own company.
I had earned more than two hundred thousand dollars by selling shares, and I had the capital of another two hundred thousand dollars after leaving the brooch at the pawn shop. In total, I had more than four hundred thousand dollars, which could be used to open a small accounting firm. I didn‘t want to work anymore. I had to be a boss this time. Whether I would succeed or fail, I had to try it at least once.
After thinking about it, I opened the stock account and looked at the shares that I had invested. I felt that the stock market was not very good recently, and it was time to cut off. Therefore, I sold the stock at the current price, and then I called Joey. “Why are you calling me during work time? Are you bored? Do you want to chat with me?” After Joey answered the phone, I heard her clear voice.
‘Joey, I‘m serious. I just sold all my stocks. I feel that the stock market is not very good recently. Sell yours when you can.” I said seriously, not as teasing as usual. Hearing this, Joey couldn‘t help but say, “Bella, are you stupid? Now that the stocks look good, you‘ve sold them all!”
I naturally understood. It wasn‘t that he couldn‘t bear to part with an ordinary employee, because if I were to continue working in this company, he could get orders from Herbert from Wharton Group.
