Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 469

Bella‘s POV:

I knew that Joey had a good impression of Connor. Seeing how upset she was, I couldn‘t help but feel uncomfortable. Originally, I wanted to match her up with Connor, but it was a pity that Connor had no interest in Joey.

So, I said tentatively, “If you mind, why don‘t I ask Amy to replace you?”

Suddenly, Joey straightened her chest and said, “What‘s there to care about? It doesn‘t matter who‘s the best man. What‘s important is that when you‘re married, the bridesmaid must be me. Besides, I‘m still waiting for the big gift from Herbert. How can I give this opportunity to someone else?”

After that, she turned around and went out.

I couldn‘t help but smile. A few days later, Herbert finally came back. After dinner, I had already coaxed Lucky. I told Lucas a story and coaxed him. After going upstairs, I made a phone call. It was very noisy on Herbert‘s side. He said that he was having dinner with his colleagues and would come home after dinner.

I quickly took a shower and did my skincare routine. At ten o‘clock, I was lying on the big bed in a lace– rimmed nightdress.

The wait was really boring. Herbert did not come back after a long time. Finally, I closed my eyes when I was watching a drama.

When I woke up, I suddenly opened my eyes and found that the lights in my bedroom had been turned off, and the TV had been turned off.

I didn‘t know when I had an arm on my waist. I turned my head and looked back. In the moonlight, I saw Herbert lying next to me.

The dim moonlight shone on his handsome face, and I was very surprised. “Oh my god, when did he come back? Why didn‘t I hear anything?”

Just as I was feeling vexed, I heard his low voice. “You‘re awake?”

Hearing this, I sat up in surprise, reached out to turn on the wall lamp, and the room immediately lit up with dim light.

“When… when did you come back?” I looked at the person in front of me and asked.

At this time, Herbert reached out and took the wristwatch on the bedside table. He glanced at it and replied, “I entered at 11 o‘clock and it has been three hours.”

Hearing this, I touched my hair and complained, “You‘ve been back for so long, why didn‘t you tell me? I‘ve been waiting for you all night!”

Hearing this, a playful smile appeared on Herbert‘s lips. “When I came back, you slept very soundly. I carried you to the bed, but you didn‘t wake up at all. Bella, did you wait for me all night?”

“I... I really waited for you all night, but... I was bored. I was tired and I fell asleep.” I pouted and lowered my head. I didn‘t dare to look at him, but I was very annoyed in my heart. How could I fall asleep?

I couldn‘t help but sigh in my heart. In order to welcome him, I took a shower in the bathroom for more than half an hour, and then deliberately wore a sexy lace nightdress, but I didn‘t expect that it was all in vain.

At this time, Herbert reached out to pinch my chin and lifted my face. “I haven‘t seen this nightdress before.”

“Last time, you asked someone from the mall to send it to me. I picked this one and put it on. Dol look good?” I looked at him with a smile.

There was a flash of heat in Herbert‘s eyes at this moment. “The nightdress is beautiful.”

“You...”

“You look better!” Herbert hugged me. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Hearing this, I pursed my lips and smiled. I stretched out my arms, hooked them around his neck, raised my chin, and said, “That‘s more like it!”

Herbert lowered his head and sniffed my soft neck, and then the hot air at the tip of his nose sprayed on my ear. “This shower gel smells so good.” “That‘s my body fragrance, okay?” I corrected him with a smile. “What are you doing?” He raised his hand and answered seriously, “I‘m smelling your body scent.” “You‘re so annoying!” I reached out and tried to push him away. I lay quietly in Herbert‘s arm, looking at the moonlight outside the window and chatting with him.

“Herbert, I have something to tell you...”

I thought about it for a long time, but I still decided to tell him that Klein had given me a necklace.

Although I knew that he might dislike it.

But if I didn‘t tell him and he found out about it in the future, it would sow discord again.

“... That‘s what happened. Klein and I are no longer in love. The necklace he gave me is just for blessing. I don‘t want you to misunderstand. Or if you have any other thoughts, you can communicate with me.”

I went on, “We‘re already getting married. I don‘t want there to be any conflicts between us.”

Based on my understanding of Herbert, I thought he would ask me to return the necklace.

Or express his emotions,

But none of that happened.

Herbert held me tightly in his arms. “Bella, thank you for your trust in me. You‘re willing to communicate with me and you took the initiative to tell me these things.”

“To be honest, I do mind. After all, that necklace was the witness of your marriage with him in the past. I love you, so I do mind. But because I love you, I can let it go. I am willing to trust you. In the past, we always had conflicts because of some things.”

“In the future, let’s be honest with each other like today, okay?”

When I heard what he said, I was stunned.

He seemed to be a different person from what I thought

This was really a very good change.

“Okay, we‘ll be like this in the future.” I held his hand.

“Bella...” Herbert seemed to want to say something to me.

I looked at him. “What are you trying to say?”

At this moment, the expression on Herbert‘s face was very strange and complicated.

But soon, he returned to normal. “It‘s okay. I get to know something recently. But I haven‘t thought about how to tell you. I‘ll tell you when I figure it out, okay?”

“Okay.” Although I was really curious about what he wanted to say, I still held back my curiosity and did not ask.

In order to ease the tension between us, I said, “Dear, you suddenly stopped being overbearing. I‘m not used to it.”

Herbert laughed as well. “You‘ve misunderstood me. Of course, I am still that overbearing Herbert. My personality is hard to change. But when it comes to major things, I will change a little.”

“Okay!” I hugged him tightly again.

I suddenly thought of something. “Oh, right. Isn‘t there a lot of employees in the Wharton Group? Why do you have to make Connor your best man?”

Herbert‘s finger swept across my skin. “Connor is the person I trust the most. Over the years, the affection between us has long surpassed that of the boss and the employee. That is why, at the most important moment of my life, I naturally want him to participate as well. Is there a problem?”

Hearing this, I quickly shook my head and said, “No, I‘m just afraid that Joey will feel a little uncomfortable.”

“We are all modern people. People can be friends even after they divorce, not to mention a blind date that didn‘t work out. I don‘t think Joey is as petty as you.”

“Hey, who do you think is petty?” Hearing this, I immediately turned over and asked.

Herbert said with a smile, “Did I say anything about you?”

“You‘re talking about me. I heard it just now.” I leaned over and asked.

Herbert laughed. “You are indeed petty. After breaking up with me, you treated me as your enemy and we couldn‘t even be friends!”

“It was you who were petty, okay? You didn‘t let me go after breaking up with me. If I became your friend again, I wouldn‘t know how you would treat me!” I immediately complained.

“That‘s because I didn‘t bear to part with you.” As Herbert said this, his hands tightened around my waist in an instant

Hearing this, my anger disappeared in an instant, replaced by softness, and then I was about to melt.

“Really?” Although I thought so in my heart, I still had to ask.
