Chapter 39
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV:
For more than a week, my pregnancy reaction was very serious. I would throw up whatever I ate. This feeling was worse than death. But I didnât give up work. After all, I still had a younger sister and a mother to take care of Although I was pregnant with the baby of Herbert, my family had nothing to do with him.
During the lunch break, all her colleagues went out to eat. Irested on the table alone. Every day. i took advantage of this period of rest and asked Joey to bring back something for me to eat. After all, I had no appetite at all.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly heard a faint sound of footsteps. I looked up and saw a man in a black suit walking in.
Herbert walked to my desk and said, âYour pregnancy reaction is very serious. Take leave and go home to rest. I havenât seen Herbert for a few days. In addition, when I thought of the intimate action between him and Emma, my heart instantly burned with anger. âIâm not a rich man like you. I wonât have a salary if I ask for leave. Our family still needs such a salary to live!â
Herbert put one hand in his pocket and sneered. âI heard you won several grands by gambling. It should be enough for you to live for a while.â
It turns out that heâs still holding a grudge and leaving me behind to flirt with Emma because of this?
No, I canât accept it.
I said on purpose, Yes. I bet with someone, but I didnât steal or rob. Is it illegal?â
With that, I stopped looking at him. The next second, I saw a bank card thrown directly on my desk âIâm not here to quarrel with you. This card can cash 100,000 dollars per month, which is enough for you and your familyâs living expenses every month,â said Herbert. His words irritated me, and I stood up directly. âHerbert, what do you mean? Do you think you can buy everything with money?â Herbert said impatiently. âIsnât it said in the agreement that Iâll bear the living expenses of you and the child?
This sentence touched my sensitive nerves. Yes, we have an agreement between us. We have to do everything according to the agreement. Other than the child and the agreement, thereâs no other relationship between us.
Even the marriage certificate could be canceled at any time!
I turned my head and looked out of the window, saying, âRight now, our child doesnât have any financial burden. As for myself, I have hands and feet. I can work. I donât need your money. You can Take back your bank card.â
Herbertâs tone was cold. âFine. Since thatâs the case, when you need it, feel free to ask me I wonât go back on my word Alter that he put the bank card into his pocket and turned to leave After he left, I looked up at the ceiling and tried my best not to cry.
Over the years, Iâve gotten used to it. No matter what difficulties or hardships I encounter, Iâll endure it and never shed tears. Thatâs because itâs weak. I canât be defeated by reality.
I remember I havenât wanted to cry for a long time, but how could I cry so easily recently?
This was definitely also a kind of pregnancy reaction. Yes, pregnant womenâs emotions were unstable It must be like this!
âHow could I cry for someone who doesnât love me?â
Although the agreement was clearly written, I couldnât let Herbert look down on me. I had to work hard and take his money when the child needed it.
After a while, all the colleagues came back from lunch Joey brought one lunch box for me. I opened it and ate two mouthfuls. The manager came in with two magazines in his hand. âEveryone, this issue of the magazine has released an exclusive interview of Mr. Wharton. This is a novel that has just been sent to us by the personnel department. If youâre interested, feel free to read it.â After speaking, the manager placed the magazine on my desk and turned to enter his office.
Before I could react, several female colleagues ran over and grabbed the magazine. They were watching and discussing it. Looking at the crazy looks of those female employees, I found it a little funny.
Herbert really wasnât that kind. That man had a strange temper!
He was so short-sighted that he had an affair with a woman like Emma!
âHow could this be?â At this time, the female colleague A shouted while staring at the magazine in her hand, âWhatâs wrong? Whatâs wrong?â A group of female employees hurriedly asked.
The female colleague A threw the magazine in her hand onto a table. In a dejected voice, she said, âMr.
Wharton was married?!â
âWhat? Heâs married? No way. Let me take a look. Let me take a look.â A group of female employees were all reading in magazines.
âOh my god, this is true. In the exclusive interview, he admitted that he had a wife. And when did he have a wedding ring on his ring finger?â
When I heard this, I stopped chewing He admitted that he was married? What does this mean? Didnât he say that he was hiding our marriage in the company? But on second thought, maybe he admitted that he was married because of some work. It had nothing to do with me!
âI told you that there might be a wife, but you, a group of silly girls, donât believe me!â Joey said. âThen do you know who is the wife of Mr. Wharton?â A female staff member still seemed unwilling to give up Joey shrugged. âHow would I know? Weâre not relatives.
âDoes that even need to be said? Those who are able to marry into the clan must be a woman from a wealthy family In reality, have you ever seen a few Cinderellas marry into a wealthy family? Even if they did, they would still get divorced!â A female colleague said.
That may not be the case. Who knows when Mr. Wharton will bring his wife to everyone. She might be Cinderella Joey laughed. âOf course not!â The female colleague shook her head in disdain. Joey came to me and consoled me, âLeave them alone. Theyâre just talking nonsense.â âIn fact, what they said makes sense.â I couldnât help feeling more depressed. At this time, there was another sound at the door.
The female colleague came in from outside and said with a smile, âI just saw a big piece of news!
âAnother piece of news? Isnât there enough news today? Tell me who it is about?â The female colleague A asked.
âIf it wasnât for the fact that itâs related to Mr. Wharton, would I have the nerve to bring it up as news?â
Female colleague, B, said with a mysterious smile.
