Chapter 367
Chapter 367
Herbert’s POV:
I liked to see her blushing and shy look. I felt that she was the cutest, and I liked to flirt with her the most. I liked to see her being nervous and shy.
“It seems that I’m too strong. Well, from now on, we will limit the number of times from Monday to Friday, and it will be unlimited during the weekends. What do you think?”
Sure enough, Bella’s face became redder. A pair of beautiful eyes were looking around as if to make sure that no one around us had heard me.
I smiled even more happily.
“Please restrain yourself. We’re at the dining table now. Don’t talk about anything on the bed.” She reached out to cover her forehead. I couldn’t help laughing. To be honest, I didn’t smile often.
But as long as I was with Bella, I would always be very happy.
At this time, I saw that Bella’s lips were raised. It could be seen that Bella was actually very happy.
Just as we were enjoying the meal happily, a man’s voice came. “Mr. Wharton, are you eating here as well? What a coincidence!” A very handsome man dressed in a silver tuxedo walked over, greeting me warmly. “Ah, William, it’s such a coincidence that you’re also eating here.” I was still sitting in my chair and did not get up. However, the person bowed to me with great enthusiasm. William was the son of Daniel Morgan, the chairman of K.G. Software Company.
Bella’s POV:
I didn’t expect to meet William here.
I immediately thought of Emma. I turned my head and saw a very beautiful young woman sitting near the window not far from us. She should be William’s female companion today. I didn’t see Emma, so I was confused. William dared to bring another woman here for a meal behind Emma’s back? Did he really have the guts to do that? Emma would definitely cause trouble for him. It reminded me of the charity party not long ago. In front of Connie and Emma, William didn’t dare to say no.
It was understandable. His old father, Daniel Morgan, was now obsessed with Connie. He even threatened that he would strip William of his inheritance if he didn’t marry Emma.
I really pitied William, because I had a terrible father like him.
And our terrible fathers were hurt by the same woman.
At this moment, William’s face was wreathed in smiles as he grabbed Herbert’s hand. “Mr. Wharton,
I don’t even know how to thank you. In the future, as long as you need me, feel free to ask. I will definitely do my best!” I looked at Herbert, puzzled.
Hearing these words, Herbert just smiled slightly. “It’s just a small matter. I have my own selfish motives in helping you…” “No matter what your purpose is, you really helped me. I’ll pay for this meal. I really can’t find anything else that I can do for you.” William smiled,
Being held by his hand, Herbert seemed a little uncomfortable. He got rid of William’s hand and withdrew his own hand. Then he looked at me and said, “Today, I invited the mother of my children to have lunch here. I’m afraid that I will lose face if I let you pay the bill.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mother of your children? Mr. Wharton, so you’re already married. I thought you were a single noble.” After speaking, William turned to look at me.
“Mrs. Wharton…” When William saw me, he was stunned.
When I saw William, I felt a little embarrassed. When I met him in the past, I was still Klein’s
girlfriend. But now, I became the mother of Herbert’s children.
While facing William, I could only nod and smile generously. “Ah, William, nice to see you.” “Miss Stepanek, I didn’t expect…I would run into you here. You and Mr. Wharton…” William didn’t even know what to say.
I didn’t know how to respond to such an awkward situation.
Fortunately, at this time, Herbert said in a domineering tone, “Bella is my woman!”
Hearing that, William was stunned, but I felt warm in my heart. His eyes were fixed on me as if he was declaring his sovereignty.
Only now did William come to his senses. He hurriedly said in a fawning manner, “Mr. Wharton, you have a good taste. There are simply too many beautiful, gentle, and generous women like Miss Stepanek. It’s because of your charm that you managed to successfully pursue her.”
Although there was a hint of flattery in William’s words, and Herbert would not normally buy such words, he seemed to be very happy today, and the corners of his mouth were raised.
“Ah, William, I’m afraid your female companion has been waiting for a long time. Don’t ignore her.” At this time, Herbert looked at the young, fashionable woman sitting not far away.
William bid him farewell as soon as he heard that.
Then he turned back to his seat.
After William left, I lowered my head and didn’t look at Herbert. “What’s wrong?” Herbert asked.
“No, I… Did I embarrass you?” I asked tentatively.
After all, Klein was Herbert’s younger cousin, and I almost married him. Klein was someone who couldn’t be underestimated in A City. In the future, if he brought me to all sorts of places, there would definitely be such a scene today. Herbert was one of the most important figures in A City. His wife almost married his cousin. The relationship between us was very chaotic. At this time, a big warm hand suddenly covered my hand.
I looked up and met his deep eyes.
“Back then, I was the one who had badly hurt you, which was why you were in touch with Klein. This isn’t your fault. This is all my fault.” Herbert said sincerely.
Hearing that, I pursed my lips into a smile,
A moment later, I suddenly thought of something and asked, “Right, you…are you still blaming Klein?” I had always wanted to ask this question, but I had never had a chance. This time, I finally asked.
To be honest, I didn’t want the two cousins, Herbert and Klein, to end up in a deadlock because of me. That way, I wouldn’t be at ease.
“Klein and I definitely won’t be able to return to the past.” Herbert frowned.
