Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 56

Bella’s POV

Herbert’s expression was calm, and it was impossible to tell that there had been an intense argument

just now.

“These painting look very good.” In order to ease the embarrassment, I pointed to the painting in the

room and said.

Herbert pursed his lips and said, “These are all the authentic works of Picasso, Vincent van Gogh and

Monet.”

Hearing this, I quickly stuck out my tongue. I knew that I was ignorant, so I asked, “Are the works of

these artists very expensive?

“I don’t have the most expensive ones here. The most expensive ones are in my dad’s safe. He doesn’t

allow me to see them.” Herbert replied.

Oh my god, these were not the most expensive ones! I knew that Herbert’s family was rich, but I didn’t

expect them to be so rich. Any random item in the family was very expensive. No wonder when

McKenna saw the woman beside Herbert, she thought that she was going to take their property “Are you

hungry? Let’s go eat.” said Herbert.

“Okay!” | nodded.

When I was leaving. my eyes were fixed on those paintings. This was Vincent van Gogh and Picasso!

They spent a lot of money to buy it!

Herbert’s laughter rang in her ears. “If you like it, I’ll give you two.”

“Don’t! I’m afraid that the police will think that I stole it. In addition, I’m also afraid that I’ll be robbed. By

my side, this item is nothing more than a time bomb, so it’s safer to keep it in your house.” suddenly

remembered that just now, there had been a soldier sentry ten meters away from this manor. Most likely,

he was there to protect the entire house.

After all, their family was a combination of high officials and rich people.

Ten minutes later, I followed Herbert to the restaurant.

There were more than a dozen exquisite dishes on the table, as well as all kinds of pastry and desserts.

The tableware was made of the best materials.

It gave people a feeling of entering the palace.

*Our chef is best at French cuisine. Try it. It tastes good.” Herbert picked up the knife and fork.

At this moment, I looked up at the opposite position of Herbert.

Before I could speak, Herbert understood what I meant. He said, “My mother has a temporary gathering

with her friends, so she’s not eating at home. We’ll be the only ones here in the afternoon.”

Hearing this, I suddenly felt much more relaxed, so I immediately picked up the knife and fork and began

to eat

Herbert said, “I didn’t expect that you weren’t very afraid of my mother.’

I glared at him and said, ‘She’s not a monster. Why should I be afraid of her? She’s your mother still have

to endure her”

Herbert pursed his lips, “No one has ever dared to say those words to my mother”

“No one was born to be insulted, and the accusations she gave to me was too serious. I wouldn’t dare to

accept it” | curled my lips and said

Herbert glanced at me and said, “Then what did she accuse you of?”

“She said that I had planned and schemed. She said that I married you because I was obsessed with

your money.” I said. “So you mean you’re not obsessed with my money?” Said Herbert

“Of course not ” I answered instinctively.

“So you’re obsessed with me?” Herbert suddenly asked.

His words seemed to poke the secret in my heart.

A confession was not suitable in our relationship.

I didn’t want to show my true feelings directly, so I said, “Compared to you, your money is more

attractive” I married him just to give our child a legal identity, and he asked me to sign a contract between

us. Since we were fake husband and wife, there was no need to get our relationship entangled. My heart

suddenly beat faster, and I didn’t dare to continue to look at Herbert I turned my head and took a deep

breath, telling myself that I had to calm down.

Herbert seemed to be stunned. About two minutes later, he said, “After dinner, we’ll leave here.”

“So fast?” I asked in surprise. I thought we would stay here for a day or two. After all, he would only

come back once every few months.

“You don’t want to leave. Do you want to stay here for two more days?” Herbert’s face returned to its

usual coldness, but his tone was a little gentler

“No I’m not suitable here.” I looked at the palace-like villa and felt that it was too dignified and noble. I

couldn’t sleep here at night.

The next moment Herbert ordered Connor to prepare a car. Half an hour later, we took the car and

left.

About half an hour later, the car suddenly turned into a seemingly high-end resort.

I was confused. “Aren’t we going home?” Herbert glanced at me and said, “Since we have come out, let’s

stay here for a night. We can take it as a trip to relax.”

A trip to relax?

What a good suggestion.

I turned to appreciate the scenery in the resort outside the window

Maybe because I was pregnant, I always felt sleepy, so I went back to the hotel and laid directly on

the bed

Herbert’s POV

Bella was much braver than I had imagined

In my memory, except for my father and no one has ever refuted my mother like Bella I was ready to

stand out and comfort Bella at any time, but she didn’t seem to be depressed at all

And at the moment when my words were very excessive, she would restrain her temper for me, which

made me surprised and happy

But when she was having lunch, she said that I was not as attractive as my money.

I felt a little concerned with such a simple sentence. Although I knew Bella was joking But I actually cared

about this sentence! What was i looking forward to? Was I looking forward to her saying, “Yes, Herbert, I

just like you!” Oh, I wasn’t my old self anymore. Why? Was it because of men’s strange

competitiveness? Such emotions were temporary. I soon restrained my emotions But Bella was not

comfortable in that house, so I proposed to leave my parents’ home and we went to a beautiful resort

In fact, as I thought, Bella went to the room to rest after arriving at the resort

The afternoon sun was very warm. Bella was sleeping in the bedroom, and I was working on the

computer in the study Bella didn’t sleep well, so I tried to keep my voice down. My special assistant,

Connor, came to report to me, “Mr. Wharton, Mr. Ramsay of the resort heard that you and Mrs. Wharton

were staying here, so he wanted to hold a banquet to entertain both of you tonight

I hesitated and replied, “Tell him that my wife’s pregnancy reaction is very strong and it’s not convenient

for her to attend the banquet Please thank him for me.”

“Ainght Mr Wharton, you‘re too kind to Mrs. Wharton. This resort had offended you in business in the

past. This time, in order for Mrs Wharton to have a good rest, you didn’t have to argue with them Mr

Ramsay would be very grateful for your forgiveness.”

Those things have been going on for too long I don’t mind it a long time ago,” I said. *However, you hate

people like Mr Ramsay, who never keeps their promise the most Connor said

glanced at Connor, indicating for him not to continue

I looked at the bedroom door and remembered Bella said that I was not as attractive as my money

Thinking back several times, I couldn’t help laughing

How could I become so childish? How could I care about such a simple sentence?
