Chapter 444

Bella‘s POV: I remembered that my grandfather was seriously ill, so I went to visit him. We happened to meet Ryan and Connie. We had a dispute, and Ryan slapped me directly to the ground. Tused all my strength to fight back, but I was no match for them at that time.

as Today, William wasn‘t hurt at all. On the contrary, he had taught both of them a lesson.

First of all, William was a man, and he was very strong.

Secondly, William had started his own business. It was said that he had been in good shape recently In terms of strength and economy, this man was relatively strong. That was why he could successfully fight back. But I didn‘t have strong strength or a lot of money back then.

I was bullied badly, so I could only hide in the corner and shed tears.

Therefore, if I wanted others not to bully me, I could only make myself stronger. “Dear, what are you thinking about?” An arm suddenly wrapped around my shoulder. I looked up and saw Herbert standing in front of me, holding a white crystal trophy in his hand.

“What‘s this?” I stared at the trophy in his hand and asked.

Seeing my confused eyes, Herbert flicked my forehead with his fingers and said, “What are you thinking?

Didn‘t you see your husband going to the stage to get the award?”

Hearing this, I came to my senses. “Is this the trophy of the top ten business elites in A City?”

Herbert couldn‘t help but shake his head. “Look at other people‘s wives. They‘re very proud of their husband for getting this trophy, but you didn‘t pay any attention to me at all!”

I knew that I was distracted just now, so I quickly took his arm and tried to please him. “I‘m also very proud! It‘s just that I‘m not surprised that you can get the top 10 business elite award in A City, because you are very powerful. I feel that you can get the national top 10 business elite trophy in the future.”

Herbert said, “There‘s so much pressure all of a sudden.” “Heh heh. Only when there‘s pressure, there‘s motivation” I said with a smile. At this time, I saw a lot of people coming forward to congratulate Herbert.

I didn‘t know those people and didn‘t know how to respond, so I said, “I‘m going to the bathroom.”

“I knew you were going to run away” Herbert understood what I was thinking.

“I‘m really going to the bathroom. You can deal with those people.” I winked at Herbert and turned away with a smile, “Mr. Wharton, congratulations!”

“Mr. Wharton, you are indeed worthy of this award.”

“Mr. Wharton...”

Herbert held the trophy in his hand and dealt with those people with a smile on his face.

I looked at Herbert from a distance and then turned into the emergency passage.

I went to the bathroom and washed my hands. After taking two deep breaths, I went out of the bathroom.

I estimated that it was almost time for Herbert to deal with those people, so I stepped into the banquet hall again.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of me!

I looked up and saw the person clearly. I couldn‘t help but be stunned.

“I‘m sorry. Did I scare you?” The man saw me and immediately apologized.

“Oh, no.” I said, and then my expression became a little unnatural. I reached out and combed the loose hair on my ear, but in my heart, I didn‘t know how to deal with Klein.

I didn‘t want Herbert to misunderstand me, not to mention that he had already had Ella.

I was living a good life now. I didn‘t want any accidents to happen.

But in my heart, I still felt a hint of gratitude and guilt towards Klein.

“The wedding will be held next month?” Klein asked.

“That‘s right.” A forced smile tugged at my lips.

Both of us were silent for two seconds, and then I said with a smile, “I‘m going back...”

Before I could finish my words, Klein grabbed my arm.

“Bella, why are you hiding from me?” Klein asked with a frown.

I lowered my head to look at his hand, which was holding onto my arm. Klein retracted his hand.

At this time, I frowned as I looked at Klein. “Klein, why don‘t you understand? Herbert and I are already husband and wife. After all, we had a relationship before. For the sake of you, for the sake of his feelings, and of course for my own sake, we don‘t need to be in touch for now!”

Klein didn‘t immediately respond to me. Seeing that he was grabbing onto his hair, I felt a bit dispirited After another few dozen seconds, he opened his mouth and said, “Bella, why don‘t you think about my feelings? I have to watch my beloved woman marry my cousin. And you two love each other so much.

Do you know that my heart is as painful as being cut by a knife?”

Klein‘s hand stroked his chest, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, and his eyes were filled with pain I didn‘t expect him to still like me after so long.

I thought that even if he hadn‘t completely let it go, he should have hidden his emotions, but I didn‘t expect him to express his feelings today I felt a lot of pressure His feelings for me touched me a little, but I didn‘t like him. Even if I didn‘t reunite with Herbert, ! might not be able to be with him I even sympathized with him, but I still had to tell him that there was no possibility between him and me.

And then, I looked at him “Klein, I‘m already married My husband is Herbert “Bella, can it be that all these years, you don‘t have any feelings for me at all? Have you ever fallen in love with me at all?” When Klein said these words, his face was filled with pain.

My feelings for Klein were more like that of a friend.

That was not love, perhaps it had never been.

Klein was the benefactor in my life. Without him, perhaps I wouldn‘t have been able to survive until now, but that sort of relationship had nothing to do with love. He was also a very excellent person. I admired him and trusted him.

But it was only limited to friends.
