Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert) novel Chapter 68

Chapter 68

Bella‘s POV: That night, Miranda appeared in front of me with my daily necessities.

Miranda made me some noodles.

But I didn‘t want to eat anything at all. I didn‘t fall asleep all night. Dawn came. I stood in front of the French window on the second floor and looked down at the whole courtyard. The temperature in the mountain was much colder than in the downtown area. I wore a night robe on my shoulder. The early morning in the mountain was beautiful and quiet, but I was not in the mood to enjoy it.

This villa was decorated with European style furniture and decoration. It was very luxurious. Even the crystal cups for drinking water were imported, and the ground was covered with expensive wool cushions. Although it was summer, the top of the mountain was moist and cold. I didn‘t feel cold until covered myself with a thick quilt at night. Heh! Herbert found an exquisite cage to imprison me. In addition to loneliness, I felt a lot of fear.

It turned out that it was really dangerous to annoy Herbert!

My phone had been smashed by him. My family and friends couldn‘t get in touch with me.

They would definitely be very anxious, but the phone in this villa had been restricted by Herbert. It could only be used to contact him and Connor. I could not use it to call any other number. I thought about it all night, but I couldn‘t come up with a good solution. I could only keep calling Herbert.

“Herbert, let me out. Do you hear me?” “Herbert, I don‘t want to stay here. Hurry up and send someone to pick me up!” “Herbert, you bastard, you have no right to restrict my freedom!” However, every time I talked on the phone, the other end of the phone was always silent. I felt that he didn‘t listen to me at all. When I got tired of shouting at the phone and didn‘t want to talk anymore, he said calmly. “The air on the mountain is very good. It‘s good for your health. Just now, you talked so much. Take it as training your lungs!” “Herbert, you really deserve to die!” I cursed him, but the phone had been hung up, so he couldn‘t hear my curse at all.

| smashed the only phone in the villa angrily. After two days of silence, I finally thought of a way to fight against Herbert: hunger strike. He could care less about my body, but he couldn‘t ignore the condition of my baby. For the rest of the day, I didn‘t drink water or eat anything.

I already felt an obvious hunger, but I had to endure it, I couldn‘t be locked in a cage like a bird. My mother and sister would be very sad if they couldn‘t find me. In the evening, Miranda brought dinner to me and said in a pleading tone, “Mrs Wharton, have something to eat. The baby in your belly will be very uncomfortable.” I pretended not to hear it. This was the tenth time that Miranda had asked me to have dinner today In fact, I almost couldn‘t hold on any longer. The baby in my belly began to toss around, and the fetal movement was very frequent. I didn‘t dare to look at the dinner that was laid out by Miranda. I was worried that I wouldn‘t be able to hold on any longer. Miranda burst into tears. “Mrs. Wharton, Mr. Wharton will definitely blame me if he finds out. If

anything happens to you, how can I explain it to him?” Hearing this, I felt very depressed. So I haven‘t eaten for the whole day. Did he not know about it? Would I starve to death first before he finds out that I was going on a hunger strike? I looked up at the dark sky outside. My God, did I have to spend this long night in hunger? If I had known that the revolution was so difficult, I would have hidden some food in the house in advance, but now, I have nothing! I touched my belly and comforted the baby in my heart. “Baby, you must hold on! It‘s all my fault for being so stupid. I should use some strategy In the end, I didn‘t eat anything. At last, Miranda left the room with the food helplessly At nine o‘clock in the evening, when I was starving, the door of the room was kicked open Startled, I looked up and saw Herbert walking in with an ugly look on his face “What do you want to do? Are you threatening me with my child?” He walked to the bed and asked me.

I didn‘t expect him to come so soon I thought that he would come tomorrow after Miranda told him that I was going to have a hunger strike “I want to go home!” I calmly looked up at Herbert “It‘s absolutely impossible.” Herbert‘s expression was firm, I turned my head. “Then just watch as your child starves to death.” I couldn‘t bear to let anything happen to the child in my belly, but now the child had become my only bargaining chip. In my heart, I felt sorry for my child. “Baby, I‘m sorry! Mom used you to threaten Dad. I really have no choice.”
