Chapter 391

Bella's POV:

I felt that Linda was actually a kind person.

She didn't treat me as an enemy, so I didn't want to lie to her. Besides, there was no need to lie to her now. It would soon be known that I wanted to start my own accounting firm.

"I won't join Wharton Group. I want to start my own business." I laughed. Hearing this, Linda was shocked. Then she said, "Bella, what you do always surprise me." "Perhaps, in many people's eyes, with Herbert's financial ability, I don't need to work at all. I will have a lot of money" "But I don't want to always live with the status as Herbert's woman, I want to have my own life and path." I told her my thoughts. Linda stared at me for a moment and said, "Now I understand why Herbert likes you. You are indeed different."

"Actually, you're better than me. Maybe I'm just lucky enough to meet him first," I said.

Unexpectedly, Linda was very generous this time. "Forget it, you may think that I am an excellent woman, but you can easily replace a woman like me in any high-end office building. Herbert deals with such a woman every day. He didn't fall in love with such a person, and he wouldn't fall in love with someone like that in the future. To put it bluntly, he has seen too many of such women. Women like us can't arouse his curiosity at all. Instead, he should have rarely met a woman like you in the past."

"Maybe." I chuckled.

At this moment, I actually remembered the first time we met. It was in a bar. My memory of that day was vague. I only remembered that he was wearing a black suit. He was very young and muscular. I didn't know anything else, and I couldn't even see his face clearly At this moment, Linda suddenly reached out her hand to me. "Bella, I want to make friends with you." Hearing this, I held out my hand. "I also want to make friends with you." "Well, I won't delay your packing anymore. Since we are friends, don't turn me down if I ask you out for coffee one day."

"I'll treat you," I said with a smile.

"I'm leaving." After that, Linda went out.

After Linda left, I grinned.

I looked around the office. Although I didn't work in this company for a long time, I felt like I was on a roller coaster over the past few months. From the very beginning, I had been excluded. I was harassed by Jeremy, and almost gone to jail, and now I was in the position of manager of the department. I had been treated as a distinguished guest by the general manager. It was really like a dream to have my salary doubled up. But to be honest, I didn't like this place. I was always afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch my breath here, so I'd better leave as soon as possible. Before I left, I thought, "Maybe my only gain is that I've made friends with Linda, isn't it?"

Joey also resigned from her company smoothly. For the next few days, Joey and I had been busy and we always returned home late. We were busy looking for office buildings, registering the company, recruiting staff, and so on. At nine o'clock in the evening this day, I dragged my tired body back from the outside. I changed my shoes and walked into the living room. I saw a man in a white shirt sitting in the bright living room.

Herbert was back?

"When did you come back?" I hadn't seen him for a week. I was very excited to see him.

"Where have you been? Do you know what time is it now? The children are asleep." Compared with my excitement, Herbert frowned and obviously showed that he was not happy.

"Oh, I have something to tell you." I sat down in front of Herbert with a smile. I had been very busy these days. Indeed, I hadn't taken care of the children. I felt a little guilty. "What's it?" Herbert asked.

"I resigned. I want to open an accounting firm on my own. Joey also resigned. She decided to help me. And Amy, she's not working in the law firm now. Joey and I have been running around to look for the office building, register our company, and recruit staff. We're so busy..." I reported to Herbert about my whereabouts in the past few days.

However, Herbert interrupted me without mercy. "You're going to start a business on your own? That's ridiculous. Why don't you discuss it with me?"

"I... You were in New York for a week, and you didn't have time to contact me. How can I have a chance to discuss it with you?" I retorted.

Hearing this, Herbert was even angrier. "Are you complaining that I have ignored you because I often went to New York lately?"

"... never thought so," I said.

I felt a little aggrieved.

I understood that he was too tired, but I didn't expect him to talk to me like this.

At this time, Herbert got up and walked back and forth in the living room.

Then, he walked to me and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry. I've been too stressed with my work recently, so I couldn't control myself and got angry with you."

Tears welled up in my eyes when I heard the apology.

At this time, Herbert said calmly, "Bella, if you start an accounting firm, it will involve too many things. It's not as simple as you think for a woman like you to survive. And our children are still young. You have to work every day, and I'm very busy recently. No one can accompany our children. It's not good for children's growth, so my opinion is to stop your idea as soon as possible."

I thought that Herbert wouldn't object even if he didn't support me to start my own business, but I really couldn't accept his attitude now.

I frowned and said, "Joey and I have resigned, and Amy has joined us. Today, Joey and I have rented the office building, and we're also in the middle of getting our company registered. How can it be possible for us to stop just because you ask us to?" "I can pay you all the losses. I'll also pay Joey and Amy a sum of money and ask them to replace a new job. We won't let them suffer losses." After that, he took out a check and a pen.
