Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert) novel Chapter 91

Chapter 91

Bella‘s POV:

Time flew. Half a year had passed.

The weather was getting warm.

After more than half a year of hard work, I not only passed the probation but also valued.

The work went very smoothly. With a good salary, I rented an apartment near the company, so that I could save a lot of time on the road every day. I didn‘t give up my original dream, but spent all my spare time to study on the CPA exam.

Although the company and the Wharton building were very close, I didn‘t run into anyone I didn‘t want to meet.

There were two times when I saw the black Bentley by chance. It soon drove away, but I still heard the sound of my heart beating faster. Occasionally, when I passed by, I would raise my head to look at the familiar building, but as soon as I did, I would hurriedly leave. I knew that I should have forgotten all those past events, but the only thing I could do now was to seal them in my heart. To forget all of them, it would probably take some time. But I finally stood up again. This was the most important thing. That morning, I was looking at the last month‘s charts of account when my cell phone suddenly rang. After the call was connected, Klein‘s voice rang out from the other end of the line. “Bella, there‘s an important guest in my office. Go receive him with a cup of iced Americano, I‘m stuck in a traffic jam here, and it‘ll probably take me another twenty minutes to get back.” “Alright.” I hung up the phone, then immediately followed Klein‘s instructions and prepared the iced Americano.

Actually, entertaining the guests was the work of his secretary, Zoe. However, she was currently focused being Klein‘s administrative secretary. She was usually arranging the materials for him, and was very busy. As a financial manager, I was most busy at the end of the month and the beginning of the month. Thus, Klein often asked me to take care of some of the guests‘ affairs. After all, I was an employee who earned a salary. I would do whatever the boss asked me to do.

Five minutes later, I walked into Klein‘s office with a cup of iced Americano. “Hello, sir. Mr. Wharton just called back, said that it would take more than ten minutes for him to

arrive at the company, so he asked me to prepare an ice Americano for you...” Before I could finish my sentence, the man with his back facing me suddenly turned around. When I saw the familiar face in front of me,iny smile froze and the rest of my words were stuck in my throat.

It was him, Herbert!

Why was he here?

19 180 I felt very flustered in my heart. After a few seconds of nervousness, I told myself to calm down. I must calm down!

I had thought of countless scenes where I might meet him, but there was no such scene as today.

The stubbornness in the depths of my soul was overflowing. I must pretend that nothing happened. I must not let him look down on me. The next moment, a standard smile appeared on my face as I said, “Mr. Wharton, long time no see!” “It‘s been a long time. It‘s been more than half a year, isn‘t it?” Herbert seemed to be in a bad mood. I didn‘t want to continue communicating with him, so I smiled and pointed at the coffee on the table. “Please have some coffee. Klein will be here soon!”

I was about to leave the office.

However, he took two steps forward and appeared in front of me.

Just as I was about to fall, a strong arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me into a wide embrace. “Ah...” I instinctively reached out and grabbed the collar of his shirt. While I was panicking, I was even more flustered. I could smell his unique aura, and the big hand on my waist was very warm. I was immediately shrouded by his breath, and I was a little flustered for a while.

Thinking of this, my heart sank into the bottom of the valley, and the burning love also immediately cooled down.
