Bella’s POV:
The next morning.
I was awakened by the cries of birds.
Herbert was no longer in the room.
The bed sheets were messy and the pillow was full of his scent.
I suddenly saw the clock on the wall. It was already nine o’clock! Good heavens! I was going to be late for work. The next moment, I sat up abruptly.
Looking down at my naked body under the quilt, I picked up the bath towel that he had thrown on the ground last night, wrapped it around my body, and went into the bathroom. However, after looking for a long time, I could not find the clothes that I had taken off after taking a shower last night. “Where are my clothes? Why are they gone? What should I do? What should I wear to go to work?” Just when I was feeling anxious, I suddenly saw a bag on the sink in the washroom. There was a note on it.
Confused, I reached out and took the note. I looked down and saw two lines of words written on it.
This handwriting had a sense of arrogance in it. I recognized it. It was Herbert‘s handwriting. “I let Miranda wash your clothes. You can wear the clothes in this bag for a day!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI put down the note and took out a khaki silk dress from my bag. It was brand new, of excellent quality, and elegant. At the same time, there was also a set of leopard–print underwear, which
was very sexy.
Oh my god, this pattern was exactly the same as the underwear I gave him before.
So he wanted me to wear the same underwear as he did?
Such an intimate thing made me inexplicably feel a little good.
After washing up, I rushed downstairs with my bag.
At this time, Miranda had sent Lucas to kindergarten and Gary was holding Lucky to have breakfast in his arms. When Lucky saw me, she waved her little hands and cried out sweetly, “Mom, mom.” I walked over, touched her head with love, and then asked Gary with a smile, “Gary, is Lucky all right?” “She‘s all right. When she’s full, I‘ll feed her medicine according to the family doctor‘s request,” Gary replied. I nodded and said, “Then please take care of Lucky for me. I‘m late for work. I have to go now!” Hearing this, Gary frowned, glanced at the breakfast on the table, and said, “You haven‘t had breakfast yet.” I turned around and walked out. “I‘m already late!”
When I was about to reach the entrance, Gary suddenly called me from behind. “Ah?” I thought that there was something wrong with Gary, so I turned to look at him and frowned. But Gary smiled and sized me up. “Miss Stepanek, you‘re so pretty today!” Hearing this, I felt a little embarrassed and blushed. Then I touched my hair and said, “Thank you!” With that, I turned and left.

It was almost 10 o‘clock when I arrived at Stephen Firm in a hurry.
Sitting on my desk, I was full of regret. “I’ve never been late since I started working here.”
I leaned against the seat, feeling both tired and hungry.
It was too intense on the bed last night.
How could I not be hungry now? But it was already 10 o‘clock, so I could only wait for lunch at noon. Knock... Knock... Knock…
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door. I sat up straight and yelled, “Come in!” After the door was pushed open, my colleague, Linia, walked in.
Linia put the takeout in her hand on my desk and said with a smile, “Bella, this is the breakfast that the delivery guy just sent to you.”
Glancing at the take-out breakfast on my desk, I frowned and said, “I didn’t order breakfast.”
Linia whispered, “It should be sent by your admirer, right? Maybe he’s afraid that you haven’t taken your breakfast.”
Hearing this, I said with a serious face, “Thank you, Linia.”
At this moment, I was already wondering who had ordered this take-out breakfast for me.
“Then I‘m heading out to work now.” Linia covered her mouth and left.
The door was closed. I stared at the takeout breakfast for more than ten seconds and then opened
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was my favorite German chicken roll.
There was also a sandwich and a carton of milk. I immediately had my breakfast. Halfway through my meal, I suddenly recalled the scene in which Linia was smirking when she looked at my neck.
Timmediately put down the chicken roll in my hand, stood up, walked to the bookcase, and took out
a small mirror from the drawer.
Oh my god! I saw several kiss marks on my neck from the mirror.
I left in a hurry this morning, so I didn’t notice them at all.
Then, I pulled open my collar and saw that there were hickeys all over my chest.
This reminded me of the madness from last night, and my cheeks couldn’t help but heat up.
They were seen by Linia just now.
Based on my understanding of her, the news that there were hickeys on my neck must have been known by all the people in the firm.
How should I face the public opinion of my colleagues? After all, I didn‘t want people in the company to know about my relationship with Herbert.
Especially Linda.
