Bella's POV
I continued to try to push him away, but he held me tightly.
No matter how hard I tried, he refused to let me go.
I looked up and saw a painful and sad expression on his face. Why was he still hugging me when it was already so uncomfortable? 'Let go of me!" I yelled.
"It's you who should let go." Then I heard the deep and hoarse voice of Herbert.
"L..." I regained my senses. Only then did I realize that my hands were still tightly clutching the tie around Herbert's neck Oh, my God, what was I doing? I immediately let go of my hands
Herbert's strong arms, which were holding me, also loosened, and I immediately took two steps back, because we were too close just now. I didn't know if it was my illusion, but I seemed to have touched something hard just now.
My gaze drifted uncontrollably to his lower body.
At this time, Herbert lowered his head and coughed a few times.
"The temperature seems to have risen all of a sudden." I fanned with my hand and walked out.
I went back to my bedroom and sat by the bed. I touched my cheeks and found that they were burning hot
I lowered my head and saw the phone in my hand. I couldn't help but frown. I went to borrow the phone's charger. But I went there for nothing. I still didn't get the charger in the end.
I leaned back and lay on the soft bed.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" I quickly got up from the bed and asked in the direction of the door. "I have something to do. You don't have to wait for me to eat at night. I may come back later." Herbert's deep voice came from outside. Hearing this, I was stunned and then quickly answered loudly. "Got it." Later, I heard footsteps walking away. When I couldn't hear his footsteps anymore, I breathed a sigh of relief. I ran to the window and hid behind the curtain. Looking out of the window, I saw a figure in a white shirt getting into the car, and then a black Bentley left. Knowing that he was gone, my heart gradually calmed down. Herbert was like a poison. Once I got close to him, I couldn't control myself. I lowered my head and looked at my phone. Then I went out of the bedroom, gently pushed open Herbert's bedroom door, and walked in.
In the end, I found a charger in Herbert's room. I quickly charged my phone. While my phone was
charging, I saw the shirt that Herbert had just taken off on the bed. I frowned, picked up the shirt that was stained with my snot and tears, and went into the bathroom to wash.
I washed his shirt and let it dry under the sun. Finally, my phone could be turned on. I quickly called Joey.
After the call was connected, I called, "Joey!"
At that time, Joey interrupted me. "Bella, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm on a business trip on the spur of the moment. I will only be back in a week. I left in such a hurry that I forgot to tell you!"
Hearing this, I immediately frowned. "Are you on a business trip? And it will take a week?" I was still hoping for Joey to send me my clothes and daily necessities. Those people were still waiting for me at the door.
I didn't dare to go back and make trouble.
"Where are you now? How are things going with you?" Joey asked anxiously
Hearing this, I had no choice but to answer, "I'm in Herbert's house now. He said he would help me solve the problem."
Upon hearing these words, Joey said happily, "Fortunately, you still have Herbert to help you out. "Let me tell you, you're in big trouble this time. It's not something a nobody like us can solve, so you'd better rely on Herbert to solve it. If he can help you, I won't be worried. Bye-bye!"
After that, she hung up the phone.
"Hey." Before I could say anything, Joey hung up the phone.
I looked at my phone and sighed.
It seemed that there was no better way now.
I would compromise for two days first. I would go back to get my things when the group of people had gone.
After Lucky woke up, she was very happy to see me. Lucas was taken back by Gary from kindergarten. Knowing that I would stay here for the time being, he danced happily.
That night, Miranda made fabulous food full on the table, and many of them were my favorite.
"Miranda, the food you cooked is still as delicious as before, and you still remember what I like to eat. Thank you so much!" After eating, I did not forget to thank Miranda
But Miranda smiled embarrassedly and said, "It was Mr. Wharton who asked me to prepare these dishes."
Hearing this, I looked at the delicious food on the table and couldn't help but be stunned, I always thought that he was overbearing and careless.
I didn't expect that he would remember all of my favorite food.
"Miss Stepanek, I've got all your toiletries. I just haven't had time to go shopping for pajamas yet," said Miranda. "When the shopping mall opens tomorrow, I'll buy it myself." I decided to buy some daily necessities first and not go home to get them. But Miranda laughed. "Miss Stepanek, there's no need for you to do it yourself. Mr. Wharton has already ordered everything in the department store. But they didn't have the time to deliver the
goods today. The department store will get someone to send everything over early tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, I nodded.
Herbert was so considerate He looked cold, handsome, and considerate. No wonder so many women liked him. I took a deep breath and told myself that I must not be captured by these things. "Wasn't the damage I suffered in the past enough?"
I didn't want any more harm from the past to happen to me again.
