Chapter 154

Bella’s POV:

“Bella, don’t be like this. I’m very worried about you.”

I turned to look at Joey blankly and said, “This morning, he left a message saying that he would

Joey lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment. Then, she said, “Wake up, Bella. Maybe we were wrong from the very beginning. We thought that Herbert would fall in love with you and cherish you. But in fact, we forgot our identities. We are all commoners. Even if a rich man like Herbert has a good impression of a commoner, he will only play with her feelings. He won’t really get married with her!”

These words pulled me back to reality. I cried out in pain, “He doesn’t need to marry me or love me. Why would he lie to me?”

I clenched my fists and hit on the iron chair hard.

I was agitated. Joey hugged me and comforted me. “Bella, don’t hurt yourself. Forget him! There will be a better life in the future. Just pretend that this person has never appeared in your life.”

My whole person was still wrapped in sadness. My hopes and my happiness, were all shattered. This morning, I was still imagining the future life of Herbert and I. But now, he was going to be the husband of another woman. I hugged Joey and cried. Joey held me in her arms and patted me on the back. The days when I was with Herbert kept flashing in my mind. In the end, I noticed the diamond ring on my left hand. Tears blurred my sight, but everything that happened yesterday flashed clearly in my mind. Then I suddenly looked up from Joey‘s arms. “No! I don’t believe it’s true. There must be a reason!” Joey wiped my tears with a tissue. “What do you want to do?” “I want to ask him personally. I have to know what happened!” I said stubbornly.

don’t I go with you to find him and see what he’s going to say?” “Thank you,

best, Joey.” I held Joey’s hand tightly. Then, I took out my cell phone, hesitated for a moment, and dialed Herbert’s number. Ring… Ring… The phone
