Chapter 143
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV:
âDonât come! Itâs not time yet.â I shouted into the phone.
âI just want to have a goodnight kiss. If you donât give it to me, Iâll go to your house to ask for it.â Herbert was like a willful child.
I immediately said, âOkay, I compromise. Iâve decided to send you a goodnight kiss through the phone.â
Herbertâs laughter suddenly sounded from the other end of the line.
Hearing this laughter, I felt that I had been fooled. âAre you just joking?â After a moment of silence, he suddenly said seriously, âNo, I really will do that.â | quickly kissed hard on my phone. After the kiss through the phone, we didnât say anything. I could hear his heartbeat and breathing through the phone.
At this moment, I missed Herbert even more. I really wanted to hug him and kiss him.
âBella!â Herbert called out to me. âHmm?â I replied.
âI love you!â Herbertâs pleasant voice came again.
I was stunned. This was definitely the first time he had said that he loved me.
This sentence was a sacred ritual in my heart.
Because it meant that the feelings Herbert had for me were real.
Although he used his actions and other words to show me that he loved me very much.
But I was still eager for him to say âBella, I love you directly. After a brief moment of surprise, I was suddenly moved and wanted to cry. I waited for this sentence for too long. I thought that he would say this on a very formal occasion, but I didnât expect that it was just a normal time and a normal phone call.
It was completely unexpected. Happiness suddenly enveloped me! I was so happy that I forgot to respond. âAre you still there?â Herbert asked.
âIâm here.â I nodded.
âDid you hear what I just said?â asked Herbert.
âYes.â I nodded again.
Damn it, I was so excited that I didnât know how to respond to him. Perhaps I should reply âI love youâ? I took a deep breath and was about to say this when he said, âRest early, good night!â âGood night.â I replied.
14:090 Then he hung up the phone. I leaned on the pillow and looked at my phone screen. âThe call ended so quickly. I didnât have time to respond to you!â
After that, I covered my head with the blanket in annoyanceâ¦
The next morning, I was focusing on my resume when Amy called me. âAmy, is there something wrong?â
I was a little worried about her.
Amy should be at work at this time. If there was nothing else, she would not call me.
as Could it be that Selina was making trouble for her again? I was worried about Amy. âBella, I have good news for you. Selina has been fired.â Amyâs voice was very low, but I could tell that she was very excited.
âDo you know why?â I asked Amy. Amy replied, âItâs said that she made a mistake in her work. I donât know the specific mistakes. I guess she must have offended boss. Boss doesnât like her at all.â
âEver since she became the financial manager, she had been delaying many the payment for the claims.
Many of the employees are complaining. Iâm sure Boss already knows about it!â I smiled and said, âI donât care about her. This is definitely good news for you. You can work at ease in the future.â âThatâs true. I donât have to be bullied by her anymore. Bella, Iâve been depressed recently.â Amy complained.
I comforted her with a smile.
I didnât expect that Klein would dismiss her so quickly. It seemed that the little notebook I wrote at that time was of important use. Amy continued, âWhen she packed up her things and left, she was very angry.
She also kicked the door, but she didnât expect that the quality of the door was so good that her branded high heels were broken! Many colleagues in the company who had been made trouble by her came to watch the fun. By the way, her relative, Vivian, didnât help her this time.â I was not interested in other peopleâs private affairs. I was just happy for Amy. After all, she could work at ease in the future. After that, Amy told me a piece of breaking news, which made me very surprised. âI heard that QW Law Firm is going to change its name.â Amy was very excited today. âWhy change?â I asked in confusion. Although QW Law Firm had only been established for a few years, it had accumulated some fame. Why did Klein suddenly change the name of the law firm? At this time, Amyâs voice became a little softer. âI heard that Boss and Vivian are breaking up. Vivian gave the companyâs name back then. If they really broke up, this name would not be appropriate. ! heard that Boss wants to change the name of QW Law Firm to Klein Law Firm!â
I couldnât help but frown. Klein and Vivian had been dating for many years and had never broken up.
Did this break-up have something to do with me?
I really didnât have any romantic relationship with Klein. Could it be that Vivian misunderstood me?
Although I didnât have a good impression of Vivian, I would still feel a little guilty if they broke up because of me.
âBella, someone is coming. Iâll call you next time.â Then Amy hung up the phone. After putting down the phone, I thought for a long time, but in the end, I gave up the idea of calling Klein.
Right now, I should stay far away from Klein, so that no one else would misunderstand me.
