Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert) novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92

Bella’s POV:

Herbert’s kiss was overbearing and powerful, as if it was not only a kiss, but also a way of punishment.

I felt pain and suffocation.

Although I was angry, there was nothing I could do but let him continue to kiss me… Until the sound of a conversation came from outside. “Boss, you’re back?” Zoe, greeted Klein.

“Zoe, is Mr. Wharton inside?” This was Klein’s voice.

“Yes, Bella is inside as well.” Zoe replied.

“Well…” The voice outside made me feel scared. I didn’t want others to see me kissing Herbert.

This was the place I worked at. I didn’t want any rumors to spread like before.

However, Herbert did not let go of me immediately. Instead, he kissed me for a few seconds before releasing his grip on my wrists.

Feeling his wrist loosen, I immediately reached out and pushed him in the chest, and Herbert was pushed more than a foot away. The next moment, the office door was pushed open! In the blink of an eye, I saw Klein walk in with his briefcase in hand. “You…” Klein’s gaze was on the two of us, and I felt very guilty.

| said hurriedly, “Oh, Mr. Wharton is in a hurry. There’s a meeting after this, so he asked me to give you a call.”

I looked up and saw that Herbert was staring at me with a pair of slightly narrowed eyes. I quickly lowered my head in panic.

“I don’t know what’s wrong today. It isn’t the rush hour period but I’ve been stuck in a traffic jam.” Klein laughed.

“I feel that today’s jam is at the right time.” said Herbert. “What do you mean?” Klein looked at Herbert with a puzzled look on his face. But I understood the meaning of his words. Recalling the kiss just now, my cheeks became hot again. While Klein wasn’t paying attention, I glared viciously at Herbert. “You have to ask your financial manager.” Herbert also stared at me.

Klein turned to look at me curiously as well. “Oh, Mr. Wharton said that the iced coffee is very delicious. If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t be able to leisurely drink coffee here.” After I finished speaking, my smile was a little unnatural, because these words didn’t sound real. “He really is very busy normally. Usually, he doesn’t even have the time to sit down and drink coffee.” Klein didn’t suspect me as he continued to speak.

16.56 At this moment, I truly felt a bit guilty towards the trust which Klein had for me.

It seemed that even if I said that the coal ball was white, he had to agree. Yes, it was white, as white

as snow.

I looked up and saw Herbert staring at me with a strange look. I knew I couldn’t stay here anymore, because I didn’t know what he would say next. “I’ll go out first.” I quickly exited the office. After leaving the office, I touched my lips and felt a little pain. “Miss Stepanek, you really are amazing. You were able to spend such a long period of time alone with Mr. Wharton.” At this time, Zoe suddenly laughed in a low voice. “What… do you mean?” I asked guiltily.

Could it be that the sound of Herbert kissing me just now was heard by Zoe?

My cheeks became hotter. If so, would I face all kinds of public opinions and even lose this job like my previous job?”

This was something I didn’t want to happen. “Mr. Wharton is really handsome, but his personality is as cold as ice. I’m scared of him when I see him!” Zoe stood up and whispered into my ear. Hearing her words, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. I shrugged my shoulders and pretended to be scared. “I’m also very afraid, but I have to do what Boss told me to.” “That’s right. Right now, we must definitely not offend the great client of our company, Mr. Wharton.” Zoe said.

“Client?” I asked.

Zoe explained with a smile, “You don’t know yet, do you? Our company is the legal counsel for the Wharton Group and we are currently discussing the details. If nothing goes wrong, we’ll be able to sign the contract in a few days.” Hearing this, I couldn’t help but cry in my heart. How could there be such a coincidence?

I couldn’t help but feel nervous. I couldn’t believe that the QW Law Firm has a business relationship with the Wharton Group. Wouldn’t that mean that he would often show up in the future?

“Oh, I see.” I tried to keep calm and nodded with a smile. Then I ran back to my office. Closing the door, I took out the makeup mirror from my bag. My face was so red and my lips were swollen. I angrily slammed the makeup mirror on the desk, touched my slightly painful lips, and my heart beat was very fast.

It had been more than half a year, and that damn Herbert had appeared again. Was I unable to get rid of him for the rest of my life?

This man was so hateful!

When he was with me, he had an affair with his ex-girlfriend. Now that we were separated, he deliberately approached me! What on earth was he trying to do?
