Chapter 392

Bella‘s POV:

Herbert quickly wrote down a number on the check, then pulled down the check and handed it to me.

I took the check from his hand and looked down. I couldn’t help sneering. “Two hundred thousand dollars?

“You can pay the compensation for the office building, and then give some compensation to Joey and Amy. It should be enough,” Herbert said seriously.

At this moment, my self-esteem was very hurt.

I wanted to start my own business and he denied me by just a check? Why should I listen to him?

After that, I stubbornly tossed the check in my hand onto Herbert‘s clothes. “Mr. Wharton, do you think that if you give money to someone else, they‘ll do as you say?”

“L...” Herbert narrowed his eyes.

With tears in my eyes, I sneered and said, “But I‘m afraid i‘ll disappoint you. Take back your money. It won‘t work on me.”

After that, I turned around and went upstairs. When I walked to the stairs, I suddenly turned around and looked at Herbert, saying firmly. “THI definitely start my own accounting firm, and I‘ll achieve something great to show you!” With that, I went upstairs angrily Sitting by the bed, the more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and my tears flowed down, I thought he knew me, but I didn‘t expect that he would humiliate me with money today He didn‘t understand me, encourage me, or support me.

He wasn’t even honest with me.

Soon after, Herbert pushed the door open and came in.

I walked past him towards the door with my change of clothes and daily necessities in my arms.

At the moment when I walked past him, Herbert reached out and held my arm. “Where are you going?”

I took a deep breath and replied, “I don‘t want to quarrel with you. I‘m going to sleep in the second bedroom.”

After that, I was about to leave.

However, Herbert held my arm tightly and raised his voice. “Do you think I want to quarrel with you?

Bella, why can‘t you understand me? Do you know that ... am very stressed now? I have a lot of work to deal with every day. You just need to take care of this family at home. You don‘t have to go to work, and you don‘t have to earn that little amount of money!” My heart ached a little. “Little amount of money?

Humph, where were you when Lucky and I were starving in the past? Wasn‘t it just this little amount of money that supported us? Yes, you are in a good mood now and can support us. If one day you are in a bad mood and chase us out of the door, Chante: 392 then are we going to starve to death on the street?” In fact, the reason why I was so angry had something to do with my sense of security. He didn‘t mention anything about marrying me again. What was the relationship between us? Were we lovers or ordinary couple?

Hearing this, Herbert loosened his grip on my arm and shook his head in disappointment. “That’s what you think of me?”

I wiped the tears on my cheeks and pretended to be strong. “I have to settle a lot of things with Joey tomorrow morning. I don‘t have time to quarrel with you here. Don‘t worry, I will find time to accompany the children. But you haven‘t been home recently. Shouldn‘t you take time to accompany them?”

After that, I held the clothes in my arms and went out of the master bedroom.

Bang!

As soon as I walked out of the door, I heard a violent collision behind me.

I guessed that it was the sound of Herbert‘s fist hitting against the wardrobe in the room.

I paused and felt a burst of pain in my heart. Then I stubbornly stepped into the second bedroom.

Sitting by the bed, tears welled up in my eyes.

I didn‘t know why I suddenly quarreled with Herbert. I didn‘t know why he didn‘t seem to have any patience for me now. Would a man and a woman quarrel after getting along with each other for a long time?

Although I was very upset, I still fell asleep that night. After all, I was very tired after running around for a whole day The next morning, when I went downstairs, Herbert had already gone to work “Mommy, Daddy‘s back!”

Lucas, who was sitting at the dining table and eating, shouted excitedly. “Mommy, mommy!” Lucky kept shaking her small hands in Gary‘s arms when she saw me. “Got it,” I said to Lucas, then walked over to Lucky and sat down at the table with her in my arms. “Mommy, why do you seem unhappy this time when daddy is back?” Lucas stared at my face, full of doubts.

I was feeding Lucky and when I heard this, I couldn‘t help but frown. “What do you know, kid? Go to kindergarten as soon as you‘re full.” Seeing that I was unhappy today, Lucas lowered his head and muttered, “Women are troublesome. Mommy was looking forward to daddy‘s return when he was not home. Now that daddy is back, mummy is unhappy.” “What are you muttering about?” Although Lucas‘s voice was low, I was not deaf, so I naturally heard “No, I mean the porridge made by Miranda is getting tastier and tastier.” Lucas grinned.

I was also amused. After breakfast, I played with Lucky for a while and went out. In fact, I thought a lot last night. I even thought about giving up my career for the sake of Herbert. But then I would lose myself.

And his attitude was so bad that I couldn‘t give up. What‘s more, Joey had quit her job for me, and Amy was also ready to open the company with me. couldn‘t break my promise. Although Herbert didn‘t agree with me to open an accounting firm, things were going unexpectedly well today. In the afternoon, Joey and I could finally sit in the cafe and eat something to catch our breath. “I, what do you think I should do with my shares? If it goes on like this, I‘ll lose all the money learned a few days ago.” Joey finally had time to complain about her shares. I lowered my head, stirred the coffee, and was absent–minded. I had no mood to listen to Joey‘s words. “Hey, are you listening to me?” Joey waved her hand in front of me.

“What did you say?” Only now did I pull back my soul. Joey looked at me with a frown and asked, “What‘s wrong with you today? Why are you always lost in thought?”

“I didn‘t.” I thought I couldn‘t tell Joey about the quarrel between Herbert and me, because I didn‘t want to affect the team.
