Chapter 472
Bride of Mr.Billion
The third personâs POV:
âAh...â An instant later, Connorâs face distorted, and he released a low cry of pain.
Joey stared at him with a smile. Connorâs eyes fell on her and he was about to lose his temper.
Joey sneered, âIâm sorry, I accidentally stepped on your foot. I didnât do it on purpose!â
Hearing this, Connor said viciously, âYou clearly did it on purpose.â
Joey stopped pretending and said gloatingly, âItâs because you kept spouting nonsense. Your foot is just a scapegoat for your mouth.â
âYou...â Connor pointed at Joeyâs face, his face turning pale with anger.
Joey glanced at him and warned him, âThe ceremony is about to begin. If the best man and bridesmaid fight now, your boss will lose face. I have nothing to lose, but you still want this job, donât you? Donât blame me for not reminding you!â
Connor was someone who took the big picture into consideration, so he naturally wouldnât let himself suffer losses over trivial things. As such, he shot a glance at Joey and said with disdain, â|| am a gentleman, so I wonât lower myself to the level of an unreasonable woman like you.â
Joey, of course, did not show any sign of weakness. âHumph, I hope that I will never meet you again in the future. What bad luck.â
âI agree. Itâs best if this is the case.â Connor released a cold snort.
Afterward, Connor and Joey both turned their faces away. They couldnât be bothered to even look at the other party. However, Joeyâs hand was still tightly wrapped around Connorâs arm, and Connorâs body was almost sticking to Joeyâs body. They didnât reject each other, because they were aware of their responsibilities.
Bellaâs POV:
Herbert and I, who were standing in the front, also vaguely heard the quarrel between Connor and Joey.
I looked back and said worriedly, âThey wonât quarrel, will they? Why donât I go and have a look?â
Herbert laughed. âThereâs no need to check on them. Connor isnât someone who doesnât know whatâs good for him.â
âBut Joey is hotâtempered. Iâm afraid that the two of them will fight.â I knew better than anyone else about Joeyâs character. She was just a gunpowder barrel. Once it was ignited, the world would collapse âDonât worry. Connor can handle it.â Herbert said with great confidence âWhat if I was still worried, Herbert reached out and patted the back of my hand. He comforted me and said, âThereâs no what Hearing this, I looked back and saw that although Connor and Joey both had their faces changed, and neither of them looked at each other, they had already shut up It seemed that the dispute just now had been peacefully digested Then, I looked at Herbert and said with a smile, âDo you really trust Connor that much?â âSince Iâve decided to use him, I must trust him.â Herbertâs face was full of confidence.
I whispered, âI used to set them up, but now it seems that they are really not suitable for each other.
They fight with each other when they are together.â
Herbert rolled his eyes, but he thought of it differently. âThatâs not necessarily true. Didnât we have a conflict as soon as we met last time? If it were not for the fact that I was your boss, you would have fought back like Joey.â
Hearing this, I recalled all the things that had happened in the past and couldnât help but smile.
âBut itâs different. At least we had an intimate relationship first, wasnât it? Later, I was pregnant with Lucas, and we were tightly connected.â | snuggled up beside the tall and big Herbert like a happy little woman.
Looking down at me, who was like a little bird in front of him, Herbert said gently, âDonât talk about others, okay? Itâs our most sacred time now. You have to be more focused. You have to think of me in your mind, understand?â
Hearing this, I pursed my lips and smiled. âThen can I think of Lucas and Lucky as well when Iâm thinking about you?â âYes.â Herbert nodded.
âMr. Wharton, Miss Stepanek, you can enter now!â At this time, the assistant of the emcee ran over and said to us.
Then, there was a happy music in the hall.
With the music, I took Herbertâs arm and stepped into the ceremony hall step by step on the red carpet.
The sacrificial hall was decorated fashionably and solemnly. There were delicate roses, delicious food, and wine everywhere. The banquet hall, which could accommodate hundreds of people, was lit up.
There were no empty seats. Under the witness of hundreds of people, Herbert and I finally got married.
In the face of so many peopleâs blessings, I was so excited that I wanted to cry at this moment.
Seeing that my eyes were red, Herbert said in a low voice, âAre you that excited to marry me?â
Swere I couldnât help touching my eyes and said coyly, âYouâd better be serious at such a sacred moment!â
âYes.â After saying one word, Herbertâs face tensed up. Looking up at Herbertâs face, I couldnât help frowning. âWeâre getting married, okay? Canât you be happy? With such a cold face, people would think that you donât want to marry me!â
âDidnât you ask me to be more serious?â Herbert teased me deliberately.
Knowing that he shouldnât tease me too much, Herbert quickly recovered his joyful expression and completed all the necessary procedures for the wedding under the leadership of the emcee.
âI announce that the wedding is successful. Finally, the groom can kiss the bride now!â After standing for nearly an hour, the emcee announced loudly.
Al this time, Herbert turned to look at me and reached out to remove my veil. I could only see myself in his eyes. His eyes were focused and burning, and my cheeks were a little hot.
The next moment, he kissed me very seriously.
I thought it was just a symbolic kiss, but the kiss was passionate, and it lasted for a long time. I couldnât help but want to push him away. It was too embarrassing in front of hundreds of people, However, he was not moved at all. He was still kissing me as if there was no one around, At this time, the people on the scene began to scream and applaud.
