Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 98

Bella’s POV: Although Klein’s arm was also very strong, I still felt that he wasn’t as strong as Herbert was. Klein’s words were very warm, but they still didn’t carry as much of a sense of security as Herbert had when he consoled me.

Thinking of this, I shook my head hard. Why was I still thinking about that bastard! I should have completely forgotten about him. Although I thought so in my heart, I still couldn’t help but touch my lips, and I thought of the forced kiss a few days ago. Soon, we stepped onto the red carpet and walked into the entrance of the villa.

A pair of old couples about 60 years old stood at the door to welcome the guests. The masculine man should be Mr. Reina. He was dressed in black, dignified and noble. Although Mr. Reina’s hair was white, his mental state was very good. The old woman standing beside him wore a dark red silk dress and a ruby necklace, noble and elegant. The two elders were extremely loving, making one feel envious.

When Klein and I were standing in front of them, Klein very courteously bowed and laughed. “Mr. Reina, I wish you and your wife good health!” “Thank you, Klein. Why haven’t I seen this lady before?” Mrs. Reina looked at me. Mrs. Reina’s eyes made me lower my head, because her eyes were very sharp. Although her smile was gentle, her strong aura made people have a strong sense of oppression. “Her name is Bella. She is my… friend.” Klein said. Hearing this, I couldn’t help but look up at him and thought, “Why didn’t he just say I was his employee? Was there a taboo in it?”

At this time, Mrs. Reina suddenly pointed at Klein and teased, “Vivian isn’t here and now you have other women!”

“Mrs. Reina, don’t make things difficult for me today,” Klein stepped forward and grabbed hold of Mrs. Reina’s hand.

The atmosphere was a little awkward. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Vivian? Who was she?

The current situation did not allow me to continue to spend time thinking about who Vivian was.

I had to do something to ease the atmosphere.

I stepped forward and said politely, “Mr. Reina, Mrs. Reina. I am an employee of Mr. Wharton’s company. With the opportunity given today, I was able to have the opportunity to attend your anniversary party. I hope you two can be healthy and have a good life.” The reason why I said that was to express that there was no ambiguous relationship between Klein and I.

In addition, it was to express my blessing.

“Thank you for your blessing.” Mrs. Reina smiled, her eyes curved like the moon. “Then, Mrs. Reina, we’ll go in first.” After speaking, Klein pulled me into the manor. After all, there were still many guests waiting at the back. The banquet hall was very large, and the huge crystal lamp was extremely luxurious. Wearing an exquisite dress, the guests chatted gracefully. The waiter was walking in the banquet hall with all kinds of food and wine.

Klein took two glasses of champagne from the waiter’s tray and handed me one. “You seem to know Mrs. Reina?” I asked.

Klein laughed. “The Reina Family and the Wharton Family are on very good terms. Mr. Reina and his wife and my family are very good friends.”

I nodded. The Wharton Family was one of the most powerful family in the world. It wouldn’t be too strange to say something like that.

But suddenly, I realized something. The Wharton Family…

Herbert, who had an even greater influence in the Wharton Family, he definitely would’ve come today?

Thinking of this, I suddenly became a little nervous.

If I had known that Herbert would have come, I would have probably turned down Klein’s invitation.

I was worried that I would run into Herbert, so I couldn’t help looking for the familiar figure in the crowd.

“What’s wrong?” Klein wrapped his arm around my shoulders with concern.

“I’m fine. I’m a little dizzy.” I didn’t tell the truth.

“Let me help you. Have a seat over there?” Klein said.

I nodded. I sat in a corner, and maybe I could avoid Herbert in a while.

However, it was such a coincidence. Just two steps away, two people came over.

I looked forward and found that the more I was worried, the more it happened. It was embarrassing.

Herbert was dressed in a black suit, while Caroline was dressed in a long red fishtail dress. When I looked up, I saw the fierce look in his eyes, and my heart couldn’t help beating faster. But then I realized that they were very ambiguous when we were not divorced, so it was obvious that they had done something to wrong me.

Why should I be afraid?

Thinking of this, I immediately straightened my back. “Herbert, Caroline, you two came as well?” Klein looked at Herbert. Herbert’s expression was cold, and the atmosphere suddenly became more awkward. Caroline laughed coldly as she looked at klein. “Klein, you actually brought your cousin’s ex-wife to

attend the gathering of the Reina Family. Did you intentionally make things difficult for our Wharton Family?”

Klein turned to look at me, and then asked Caroline, “Whose ex-wife?”

“What’s wrong? You don’t even know? It seems that you’ve been deceived hy somenne” Carolina

said in surprise. I rolled my eyes at Klein. The reason I had accompanied him to the party today was because I was grateful to him for his assistance. In addition, I didn’t know that Herbert would also attend the party. However, after Caroline said it, it felt like I had done this on purpose. But since this matter had been brought up, I still had the responsibility to confess. I looked at Klein and said, “She’s right. I’m your cousin’s ex-wife!” A look of surprise appeared on Klein’s face. “So that day…was because…” He did not continue, and the shocked expression on his face did not disappear. “If you still care about the Wharton Family’s honor, then hurry up and take her away. Don’t bring shame to the Wharton Family here!” Caroline said excitedly. I knew that Caroline said it on purpose. The person she cared about the most was Herbert. The purpose of what she said was to slander my image in front of Herbert. But I had nothing to do with Herbert anymore. She couldn’t do much harm to me. I looked at Klein and said, “I’m very sorry. I didn’t immediately inform you of this matter, but I didn’t know that the other Mr. Wharton, would also be here. I happen to have some matters to attend to, so I can leave early.” Klein was very good to me. I didn’t want him to be in a difficult position. As soon as I turned around, Klein grabbed my hand and said, “You are my female companion tonight. Aside from the master of this place, no one has the right to let you leave!” Hearing this, I was a little surprised.

He didn’t blame me. Instead, he stood on my side and continued to protect me and trust me.

I was very grateful. Immediately afterwards, Klein said to Caroline, “If I remember correctly, you haven’t married my cousin yet. You aren’t my family yet. Thus, you don’t have the right to accuse me as a member of the Wharton Family.”
