Chapter 316

Bella‘s POV:

Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment and then looked at Connor in front of me. Herbert was in the car now? I looked back at the back seat of the car..

For the past few months, it was all Connor who had sent Lucas and Lucky to me. Herbert had never appeared in front of me. Could it be that he had been hiding in the backseat for the past few months? I thought of Linda and Herbert‘s date, so I deliberately said loudly, “Your daddy has a lot of dates now, so he has no time to have dinner with us. We‘d better not waste his time!”

Lucas immediately hugged my thigh and said seriously, “Daddy doesn‘t have any date. He came back to eat with me every day.” Hearing this, I was a little annoyed. He went on a date with another woman last night.

But Lucas said that he went back to eat with him?

Did he deliberately teach his son this?

Then, I put Lucky‘s hand in Lucas‘s palm and said, “Be a good boy, Lucas. Take your sister upstairs to look for Joey. She bought delicious chocolate for you.” “Okay.” After all, Lucas was just a child. He immediately applauded and obediently pulled Lucky‘s hand to go upstairs.

After Lucas took Lucky‘s hand and left, I walked to the back seat of the Bentley and knocked on the window of the back door, Connor found an excuse to leave. The door finally opened from the inside. Then, a man in a white shirt and a blue striped tie finally got out of the back seat. He crossed his arms over his chest and asked, “So you hide here every time?” “The reason why I didn‘t show up is that I was afraid that you would be unhappy when you saw me. I really didn‘t mean anything else.” I turned my head and didn‘t look at him.

In fact, my heart was now filled with subtle joy. I couldn‘t control this kind of feeling. It naturally spread out from my heart. After all, I thought he didn‘t want to see me before, but I didn‘t expect that he would hide in a place! didn‘t know and peek at me. But I still didn‘t want him to see my true feelings. I coughed twice and said, “Then I‘ll ask you another thing.”

“Is it about the budget plan?” Herbert asked.

Hearing that, I looked at him and asked, “Was it really you?” “It‘s a very simple thing for me. You don‘t have to worry too much about it. As long it brings you benefits, it‘s good.” Herbert said very casually. At this moment, my mood was a little complicated.

Herbert said it very casually, but I was distressed for a long time.

I didn‘t have anything to do with Herbert now. I didn‘t want him to interfere in my affairs.

“Herbert, first of all, I would like to thank you. But this is my business. Please don‘t interfere in it in the future.” I didn‘t want others to think that I could only solve it by relying on men.

“I did it for your own good,” said Herbert.

I suddenly remembered Jeremy, who was injured, so I asked, “Did you beat Jeremy up as well?” “I did.

He harassed you. I almost wanted to beat him to death.” Herbert said angrily.

“Don‘t hit anyone in the future.”

Jeremy was indeed an annoying guy.

But I knew Herbert‘s temper. If there was something wrong with Jeremy, Herbert had to be responsible for it. “Bella, you‘re speaking up for Jeremy. You...” Before he could finish his words, his cell phone rang.

He answered the phone.

“Hello?”

Herbert glanced at me and then said loudly, “Linda, I have no arrangement tonight. Where are you now?

I can come and pick you up. It‘s not troublesome. I‘m more than willing to do that. Okay, see you later!”

After that, he hung up the phone. He looked at me proudly. “Since you don‘t accept me, there will always be other women who will accept me.” 1 didn‘t say anything.

Linda again?

Humph, he was going to pick Linda up in person?

He was very kind to Linda. Did he like Linda? “I‘m sorry. I don‘t have time to quarrel with you here. I‘m going on a date!” After that, he stretched out his hand and straightened the tie around his neck. “Don‘t worry. I won‘t delay your date. Please leave as soon as possible,” I said with a deliberate smile.

Herbert was angry. He shouted Connor‘s name loudly and then quickly left my home. Looking at his rapidly disappearing back, I felt very uncomfortable.

Damn it, he was so eager to date Linda.

Just then, my phone rang. It was a call from my mother. “Bella, come over quickly!” As soon as the phone was connected, the urgent voice of my mother came from the other end of the line. Hearing this, I quickly asked, “Mom, what happened?” “It‘s Betty...” My mother was so nervous that she couldn‘t speak.

Hearing the tension in her voice, I had a bad feeling in my heart. I asked anxiously, “Mom, what happened?”

“Betty took Anne to jump into the river!” My mother cried.

Hearing this. I was stunned for a moment and then asked nervously, “Where are they now?”

“On the bridge of the riverside park,” my mother replied in tears.

T‘ll be right there.” After speaking, I put away my phone and ran straight out of the community.

I was very anxious, but there was no taxi. I was very anxious.

At this time, I saw the black Bentley parked on one side of the community.

I was too worried about Betty and Anne‘s safety.

I ran to the front of Herbert‘s car and begged him, “Please, take me to the bridge of the riverside park.”

a I thought that Herbert would refuse. After all, we had just had a fight. Unexpectedly, he agreed. On the way there, Herbert asked me what had happened. I briefly told him about it... Hè immediately asked Connor to speed up the car. Soon, the car stopped under the bridge of the riverside park. Looking up, I saw many people gather on the bridge. The next moment, I opened the door and got out of the car. “I‘ll go with you.” Herbert also opened the door. “Thank you for sending me here. You don‘t have to accompany me. I hope it won‘t delay your date. You can go. Thank you for sending me here!” After that, I ran in the direction of the bridge.
