Chapter 440
Bella‘s POV:
I knew he was hinting at what happened between the two of us for the first time.
Then he took the opportunity to tease me.
I wouldn‘t let him succeed.
I smiled and said, “I‘ve never been to such a high–end hotel.”
“Of course you won‘t come by yourself. It‘s me who brought you here.” A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Herbert‘s mouth.
“Have you brought me here? Why don‘t I remember? You didn‘t bring another woman, did you?” || looked up at him with a smile.
However, Herbert didn‘t even look at me. He walked to the elevator and said, “I only brought a woman who called me here and stayed for a night. In the end, she gave me 20 dollars as a reward. It costs more than 150 dollars to book a high–end guest room here. How much would I lose if I did this business every day?”
Hearing this, I pursed my lips and smiled. Then I looked up and said, “You can sleep with a woman at will. Why aren‘t you willing to pay some price?”
At this time, the door of the elevator opened. Herbert and I walked into the elevator.
He looked down at me and said with a smile,“Of course I won‘t make a losing deal. You‘ve become my children‘s mother, my wife.”
At this time, he reached out and touched my face with love in his eyes.
I felt the warmth of his palm and my heart was filled with happiness.
Ding!
At this time, when we arrived at the reception floor, the elevator rang.
I quickly pulled his hand away from my face and said seriously, “We‘re here!” When the elevator door opened, Herbert was already serious, and there was no expression on his face. I took his arm and walked out of the elevator,
At this moment, the opposite elevator door opened. I saw two people coming out of the opposite elevator.
When I saw the man and the woman, I felt a buzz in my brain!
I really didn‘t expect to meet him suddenly, but it was normal to think about it. Although today was a cocktail party in the business world of A City, the business world couldn‘t be separated from political and legal circle. He was a famous lawyer in A City, so it was reasonable for him to attend this wine party
Obviously, when the two opposite saw us, they also paused. They probably didn‘t expect to meet us. Dozens of meters away, my gaze and Klein‘s met in mid–air.
I didn‘t dare to look directly into his eyes, and so I lowered my head. After all, the person by my side was my current husband. In the face of Klein, my feelings were very complicated.
I could clearly sense that Klein was staring at me,

I felt a little uneasy, so Herbert reached out and held my arm.
I looked up and met Herbert‘s eyes.
Seeing his gentle eyes, I pursed my lips and smiled. I knew that he understood me. Such a comforting look instantly made me feel much better and calmer.
Then, Herbert and I stepped forward, and Klein and Ella also walked out of the elevator and came up to meet us.
“Cousin!” Klein was the first to greet him. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Klein, you‘ve come as well?” Herbert greeted him very generously, as though there weren‘t any grudges between the two of them in the past.
“Long time no see.” Ella spoke to me first.
Seeing my ex–boss, I smiled and said, “It‘s indeed been a long time since we last saw each other.”
Ella was dressed up beautifully today, and her entire body emanated the aura of a mature and successful woman. She was a perfect match for Klein.
However, at this moment, Ella‘s hand was tightly wrapped around Klein‘s arm, and her body was leaning against him. I didn‘t know if it was because the two of them were very close, or if Ella did it on purpose.
Either way, it had nothing to do with me. All I wanted was for Klein to find his own happiness as soon as possible.
At this time, Ella looked at Herbert and said with a smile, “I heard that you are going to get married. Mr. Wharton, I congratulate you!”
“Thank you.” I thanked him, and then my gaze suddenly met the gaze of Klein.
There was a hint of pain and helplessness in his eyes, which made me feel very uncomfortable. His eyes were too inappropriate. Then I lowered my head, afraid that Herbert would be unhappy.
Naturally, Klein‘s gaze had long since been drawn into Herbert‘s eyes. Staring at Ella, he laughed. “Don‘t even just congratulate us. How is your relationship with Klein? When will you be engaged?”
Hearing these words, I looked up at Herbert. I thought to myself, “Although he has little contact with Klein now, as his cousin, I‘m sure he knows all about the recent situation of Klein. Could it be that Klein is really with Ella?”
Hearing this, Ella tightened her grip on Klein‘s arm. Her face was filled with shyness as she looked at Klein. “Klein has the final say in the engagement.” Ella smiled as she waited for Klein‘s reply. But Klein didn‘t say anything for a long time. Ella immediately looked very disappointed.
At this time, I quickly tried to smooth things over. “Your marriage is naturally up to the two of you.”
I could tell from the looks of it that it was very difficult for Klein and Ella to be together. It was all because Ella was taking the initiative.
At this time, Herbert patted the back of my hand and said, “We‘re late Let‘s go in
“Oray” I nodded at Ella and then went into the banquet hall with Herbert
