Bride of Mr.Billion (Bella and Herbert)
Chapter 102

Chapter 102

Bella's POV:

Herbert walked up to the stage and shook hands with Mr. Reina and Mrs. Reina respectively. Then he took the microphone and said to the audience, "First of all, I want to apologize to Mr. Reina and Mrs. Reina because I just robbed this brooch." After that, he bowed deeply to Mr. Reina and his wife. Then he said, "Today, I really want to buy this brooch for my most beloved person. I hope that we can be as happy as the two elders and spend the rest of our lives together!" Hearing this, I couldn't help glancing at Caroline under the stage. At this moment, Caroline was watching the speech of Herbert on the stage. Her eyes were full of excitement and happiness.

Although I was very angry before and said that I had no other relationship with Herbert, when I heard that he said that he would give it to his beloved person, which was Caroline.

My heart felt as uncomfortable as if someone had pricked it with needles. In order to ease my mood, I looked elsewhere. He must have loved Caroline very much, right? As far as I knew, he was not good at expressing himself. It was very difficult for him to say such emotional words in such a crowded place today. Then, Herbert bowed respectfully to the two old elders. "Thank you very much, Mr. Reina and Mrs. Reina, for passing on luck and happiness to the person I love and I!" Hearing Herbert's words, the audience immediately applauded. Out of courtesy, I also clapped my hands. At this time, the host covered his chest with his hands and said with a smile, "It's so romantic. The person who can become the most beloved person of Mr. Wharton is really too blessed. Now! declare that this brooch from the British royal family, which symbolizes happiness, belongs to Mr. Herbert from now on!"

At this moment, Herbert suddenly turned to look at me. I was stunned. Herbert took the microphone and suddenly said, "Can I take her away with me?" I looked at the man in front of me in surprise, and the people under the stage were also shocked with their mouths wide open.

"Mr. Wharton sure knows how to joke. If you can take her away, wouldn't that be a crime?" The host was the first to realize that this was a joke.

"Haha..." The crowd burst into laughter.

Was he making a joke out of me? I glared at Herbert, and then reached out to remove the brooch on my chest. However, it was as if I couldn't remove the brooch from my clothes. Everyone was looking at me, and I continued to try to remove the brooch awkwardly. But I still couldn't take it off. The host reacted very quickly. After all, he was experienced, and thus had to be prepared for any unexpected situations. "It seems like this brooch that represents happiness is unwilling to leave this lady's body. Mr. Wharton, you really have to consider bringing her home as well." The host's words immediately aroused the atmosphere, and the crowd burst into laughter again.

My face became hotter, so I continued to lower my head and desperately fiddled with the brooch on my clothes. I didn't dare to look down the stage.

I had even begun tugging at the brooch with all my might. I was so close to breaking my clothes, but I didn't dare to use too much force. After all, the price of this brooch was 780,000 dollars. What if it was broken?

At this moment, Herbert suddenly stepped forward, and my heart beat faster. I only saw that his hands had covered my hands. I quickly let go of the brooch, and his fingers touched the brooch and also touched my clothes slightly.

He was very close to me and lowered his head to take out the brooch. His breath completely enveloped me, making it difficult for me to breathe. Besides, there were so many people looking at me. I was really nervous.

Fortunately, at this moment, the host did not pay attention to us at all. Instead, he went straight to the next part of the party-dance. The crystal lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed, and the melodious waltz music sounded. Everyone danced with their dancers.

Herbert had been rubbing my clothes for a long time, and his fingers occasionally touched my skin, which drove me crazy. My heart beat faster because of him!

"Are you done?" I asked irritably.

Herbert did not answer, but still lowered his head and fiddled with the brooch.

I said impatiently, "Why don't we get a pair of scissors?"

He was still silent, and I stamped my feet in a hurry. "Did you hear what I said?"

By this time, Caroline was already walking over, followed by Klein. "Herbert, I'll help you!" said Caroline.

Was Caroline coming? I couldn't help frowning. Something bad was sure to happen with this woman's appearance. At this moment, Herbert successfully took off the brooch on my chest and said faintly to Caroline who was next to him, "No need. I've taken it off." At this moment, I immediately took two steps back and distanced myself from Herbert.. "Are you alright?" Klein stepped forward and asked me. "I'm fine. Let's go." I shook my head, then glanced at the man in front of me and turned to leave.

Klein followed me and left.

After just a few steps, Klein stretched out his hand and invited me. "Bella, would you like to dance with me?"

Although I didn't really want to dance, it was dark in the banquet hall. I didn't know where to go for the time being, so I agreed to his invitation.

The lights were dim and the music was beautiful. Many people were immersed in it, but I caught a glimpse of the two out of the corner of my eye.

17070 "You aren't very focused." Klein raised a protest. "I'm sorry!" I could only apologize, but I also tried my best to concentrate. I was forcing myself to stop looking at Herbert... Herbert's POV: Caroline raised her head and looked at me. "Herbert, that brooch is too expensive. I feel very guilty that you spent so much money on it." "I think it has a special meaning." I said in a cold tone. I didn't give it to Caroline. Caroline pursed her lips and smiled. "I feel that it's too flamboyant to wear!" I looked at Caroline and said, "If you like it, I can buy you a similar one." "What do you mean by that? Didn't you... buy it for me?" Caroline stared at me in surprise. "I have my own use for that brooch." I replied indifferently. Caroline immediately stopped and stared at me. She couldn't control her tone and asked sharply, "Did you buy that brooch for Bella?" "It's none of your business." I said to her and turned to leave the dance floor. "Herbert..." Caroline called my name from behind, but I didn't want to respond to her. Bella's figure filled my mind...
