Chapter 85
Herbert‘s POV:
Bella left.
When she left, she was confident and free. Looking at Bella‘s back, I couldn‘t help admiring her. This woman gave me a different feeling as soon as she appeared in my life. She looked tough on the outside, but her heart was soft on the inside. She was straightforward and not hypocritical. She was very stubborn when she encountered setbacks. She was different from the women I used to date. “Herbert, you will need someone to take care of you in the future. Why don‘t I move in to take care of you?” Caroline turned around and sat beside me. I didn‘t look at Caroline and said directly, “If you think that house is too small, I can rent a bigger house to you.” “Herbert, that‘s not what I meant.” Caroline was eager to explain. “I‘m used to living alone.” I replied. I really didn‘t love Caroline anymore, so it was impossible for me to allow her to move in and live with me.
Caroline then said, “Herbert, I don‘t mean anything else. I also know my physical condition. I just want to see you every day. I‘m happy only when you‘re happy.” “Really?” I raised my head and stared into her eyes. Was her intention really that pure? I didn‘t believe
Recalling what she had just said to Bella, I was still very angry. If it weren‘t for her physical condition, I would have driven her out. “You don‘t believe me?” Caroline reached out and grabbed my hand. I hated her touch, so I retracted my hand, got up, and walked to the French window. “I want to stay alone for a while. You go back first.” I said with my back facing her. Caroline seemed to be a little hurt. She walked behind me, stretched out her arms, and hugged my waist. She said in a crying voice, “Herbert, don‘t you remember the days when we were together? At that time, we were so happy. I was the only one in your eyes, and you were the only one in my eyes, We were the only one for each other!” I was a little helpless, but I was a little moved. We did have a very beautiful past. But everything was in the past. I said, “It‘s all in the past.” “We can start over again!” Caroline turned around and walked in front of me, looking straight into my eyes. “From the time you made the choice, we could never love each other again, let alone now!” I frowned and said.
Tears welled up in her eyes. She grabbed my hand eagerly and explained, “Herbert, I knew I was wrong, but I had no choice. I really had no choice. I couldn‘t watch my father and not save him. Chapter 15

You‘re also a child. I hope you can understand my mood at that time.” “Sorry, I can‘t understand.” I said with a cold face. Caroline begged, “Herbert, I don‘t need to be your wife. I don‘t want anything. I just want to stay with you...”
“Don’t you want anything from me? In fact, you want everything. You disappoint me.” After that, I was about to leave. “Herbert...” Caroline fell on the carpet. I turned to look at her and saw that she was suffering from an asthma attack. I immediately bent down to pick her up and asked anxiously, “Where‘s the medicine? Where‘s your medicine?” “It‘s... in my... bag,” Caroline said with difficulty. I immediately took out the medicine from my bag and sprayed it on Caroline‘s nose a few times. Her condition gradually improved. At this time, Miranda heard the noise and quickly ran out. “Miss Ewell has asthma?” Miranda asked in surprise. “Get me a glass of water.” I didn‘t answer her. “Okay.” Miranda hurried to get some water. Caroline laid in my arms and said sadly, “I know I‘m sick. I can‘t get married or have a baby in the future. Maybe I am a little harsh on Bella. Maybe I can‘t control my jealousy of her. Herbert, don‘t blame me!”
