Chapter 349
Bella‘s POV:
Sofia smiled. “You don’t know yet, do you? Mr. Wharton from the Wharton Group gave a very important case, which has been fought over by several powerful senior executives, to our company. Even the general manager is in awe of Linda. With the case from Wharton Group, we’ll definitely get a generous bonus this year.”
Hearing this, I held the document tightly in my arms.
I still knew about Herbert. He never decided work related matters because of personal feelings.
Of course, he would not mix relationship with work. Although this company was also a relatively large company, there were also a few more companies that were more famous than Stephen Firm in

If it was just based on strength, Stephen Firm might not necessarily be able to get the big case of the Wharton Group. Now that Herbert was willing to give the business to Stephen Firm, it seemed that he valued Linda very much. Perhaps he was serious about his feelings for Linda this time? “Bella, if you are in a hurry, why don‘t you go directly to the conference room to find Linda? The signing ceremony is set at 10 o‘clock. It‘s only 9:30. Linda still has time.”
“Okay, thank you.” I thanked her and turned to walk to the conference room.
I told myself, “Even if Herbert announced that he was going to marry Linda today, I must remain calm.”
I had already separated from Herbert. This day would always come.
Herbert would definitely get married again. Even if there was no Linda today, there would be someone else tomorrow. So I should play my own part
When I came to the door of the conference room, I saw that the door was not closed very tightly. When I was about to open the door, I heard a familiar voice.
“Linda, can you listen to me?”
This was a man’s deep voice, which was very familiar to me.
Hearing his voice, I became nervous.
Herbert? He came to sign the contract in person today?
Generally speaking, the president would not be present in this kind of signing ceremony in person. Normally the vice president would be enough. Or even a manager would make sense. It seemed that Herbert really cared about Linda.
Through the crack in the door, I saw that the meeting room was ready. There were even flowers and red wine on the oval conference table. Linda also attached great importance to the signing ceremony I wanted to turn around and leave. After all, it was something between Herbert and Linda.
It had nothing to do with me.
When I turned around and was about to leave, I suddenly heard Linda crying inside. I couldn‘t help but stop.
08:35 “What else do you want to say to me? Are you saying that it‘s impossible between us?” Linda‘s voice seemed to be crying.

“Herbert, I really love you. I thought that as long as you were willing to spend time to understand me, you would definitely fall in love with me. I thought that you would definitely have feelings for me after this holiday…” Linda’s voice became louder.
When I heard these words outside, I was stunned.
According to their conversation, it meant that Herbert had no interest in Linda at all. He didn‘t like Linda.
But since he didn‘t like her, why did he send Linda a bunch of flowers every day? Why did he accompany Linda to be on a vacation in Puji Island and give such a big business to her? Wasn‘t he deliberately creating an ambiguous relationship to give Linda an illusion? At this time, Herbert frowned and said, “Linda, why don‘t you understand? Even if I spend time with you for a year, I won‘t fall in love with you.”
Hearing this, Linda seemed to be out of control. She stepped forward and threw herself into Herbert’s arms. She said anxiously, “No! It’s you who refused to give me a chance. As long as you are willing to spend time with me, you will definitely fall in love with me!”
Standing outside, I was in a complicated mood when I saw this scene. I took a step back and was about to leave when a voice came from behind.
“Bella, have you found Linda?”
I looked back. It was Linda’s secretary, Sofia.
Sofia‘s voice was very loud, and the door of the meeting room was not closed tightly, so the people inside must have heard it. “Oh, Linda is talking to someone, so I‘ll wait a minute.” I had not finished my words, The door behind me was opened. Linda was the one who came to open it.
