Chapter 163
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV In the evening. I went home.
Joey said, âIâve prepared dinner. We can have some wine tonight.
âOkay.â I nodded.
Soon, the table was filled with red wine and dinner. The dishes prepared by Joey were very sumptuous, filling the whole table.
Joey poured me a glass of red wine, raised it, and said with a smile, âCome on, from now on, letâs say goodbye to the past and start a new life. Letâs find a job together tomorrow!â
I put down the glass in my hand, Joey asked, âBella, whatâs wrong with you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?â âNo!â I quickly raised my head and denied. Then I said seriously, âJoey, Iâve thought about it for an entire afternoon and finally made a decision!â âWhat decision? Donât scare me.â Joey looked serious.
I said, âIâve decided to leave the city for a while and find a job in the neighboring city.â
Hearing that, Joey asked in surprise, âThe neighboring city? You donât have any friends or relatives, andâ¦â
I know Joey was saying this for my own good, but Iâve already made up my mind. I interrupted her. âThis place leaves me with too much sadness. Every familiar place is tearing open my wounds./ need a new environment. I have to go!â
Joey lowered her head and thought for a few minutes. Then she looked up and said, âI understand you.
You should go to a new environment. Time can make you forget everything. In fact, I should go with you, but my current situationâ¦â I quickly held Joeyâs hand and said, âJoey, my dear friend, I know you want to accompany me, but I also know how difficult it is for you. You must go back every week to take care of your mother. Believe me, it wonât be long. I may come back after recovering in a year or two. By the way, there is still half a year before the rental of the house is due. You can continue to live here. I just took 2,000 dollars from the bank. You can use it first!â With that, I took out some cash from my bag and placed it on the table.
Joey immediately shook her head and said, âNo, you have paid half a yearâs rent for this house. It has solved my current difficulty. I canât continue taking your money. You also need money.â
I smiled and placed the money into Joeyâs hand. âDonât worry. I still have some compensation that Klein and Vivian gave me last time, which is enough for me to use for a period of time. Now that Betty and Hank are married, I donât have to continue to pay for her living expenses in the future. My financial pressure is relieved a little. You lost your job this time because of me. You should accept this money.â
Joey was silent for a few minutes and said, âJust treat it as I borrow the money from you. Iâll pay you back when I have money in the future.â
âIf you have money in the future, you have to pay me double!â I immediately joked.
âAs long as I can make a fortune, I can even pay you back ten times. The main problem is when can!
become rich?â Joey sighed. âMaybe you will marry a rich man in the future!â I teased. âForget it. I trust myself more. You found a rich husband, but.â Joey suddenly stopped and covered her mouth Joey said nervously, âBella, Iâm sorry. I didnât do it on purpose. I didnât use my brain when I spoke!â âI understand.
Come on, letâs not talk about those unhappy things. Letâs finish these bottles of red wine today!â I raised my glass and drank it.
That night, we drank three bottles of red wine and finally fell asleep.
When we woke up the next day, one of us was on the bed and the other was on the sofa.
packed up my luggage and said goodbye to Joey.
When I was about to arrive at the train station, I suddenly thought of Lucas.
I missed that cute angel so much. I decided to see him for the last time.
I took a taxi to the villa in the suburbs, but after pressing the doorbell for a while, there was no response.
I waited at the door for more than an hour, but I didnât see Gary come back. Although I was disappointed, I had made up my mind to leave. Perhaps Lucas was no longer living here. I suddenly remembered that I went to Herbertâs house to find him that day. Caroline took his hand and said that they would live a very happy life with Lucas. I guessed that the two of them must have moved to the house of Herbert. If Caroline could treat Lucas well, it would be very good for Lucas. After all, Lucas needed a healthy family Thoped that he could be very happy in the future. | stepped on the road to leave⦠Time passed quickly, and Christmas soon arrived. The festival was the busiest day in this place. I was currently in a place called Wharton Mountain. It was a tourist attraction that was strongly supported by the local government.
In order to attract peopleâs attention, this place was still open on holidays.
Now, Iâve found a job in a travel agency. Due to the fact that Wharton Mountain was a tourist attraction, the scenery here was extremely beautiful and the air was fresh. It was a good place for vacation. My job was quite relaxing, except for the festival. On Christmas Day, the travel agency was very busy, so as a business representative, I couldnât take leave. After all, there were only six people in this small travel agency. Usually, everyone got along well with each other, and the boss was very gentle When we were busy, everyone helped each other. The people of Wharton Mountain were very simple and honest, and they were not as complicated as the people in the big company I worked in previously. I liked my current state, but I still remembered what happened in the pastâ¦
