Chapter 305:
Vivian shouted at me.
Vivian’s voice was very loud and emotional, which attracted the attention of many people.
Vivian continued, “I really hope this is just in my imagination. But he admitted it. Maybe you didn’t sleep with him, but you definitely had some kind of intimate contact. Whether it was on purpose or not, you seduced him and made him fall for you!”
“If that’s what you think, then I can’t change your mind. Sorry, but I have to go now.” I didn’t want to argue with Vivian anymore.
She was just venting her emotions, blaming me for everything. I bent down, grabbed my resume from the chair, and turned to leave.
“Bella, you’re the third party who’s ruined someone else’s relationship. You’ll definitely go to hell!” Vivian shouted behind me.
I frowned but didn’t stop walking. I knew Vivian was upset, but Klein had admitted that he had fallen for me. I didn’t believe that their breakup was entirely my fault.
There are many reasons why a couple breaks up. Their relationship was their own business. Even if Klein truly fell in love with me, that wasn’t the outcome I wanted. When I first realized he had feelings for me, I had already set a boundary.
Bella’s POV:
That night, I stared at my phone for a long time.
I wanted to call Herbert and ask him about the relationship between Klein and Vivian, but I was worried that he might misunderstand and things would get worse.
Now, not only did Vivian think that there was something between Klein and me, but Herbert also seemed uncomfortable with my continued interactions with him. No matter how I explained it, nothing seemed to change. So, I decided to stay silent.

Right at that moment, the phone rang.
I picked it up and saw it was a message from Herbert.
“I missed you so much that I couldn’t fall asleep, so I sent you a message. It isn’t against the rules, is it?”
Seeing this message, I couldn’t help but smile.
Since when did the overbearing Herbert become so considerate? In my mind, he had always been a strong and commanding man.
Now, he was even apologizing and asking for permission.
“It’s not against the rules,” I replied.
“How are you doing today?” Herbert asked. I held my phone and felt a sense of happiness. The act of holding the phone and exchanging messages made me feel like I was reliving the excitement of first love from years ago.
“Last night, Joey and I drank too much, and we slept through the entire morning. Then, I went out to look for a job in the afternoon.”
Herbert replied quickly, “You went drinking at night? And you’re drunk? What if something happens?”
I immediately replied, “Nothing would happen. The city’s security is very good.”
After sending the message, I waited for a reply, but there was silence for a while. I thought he might be angry. Just then, the phone beeped again, and another message came through. This time, I felt a little frustrated when I saw his reply.
“The security of the city is indeed very good, but I’m worried that you might just take someone to a hotel like you did last time.”
“It was an accident last time,” I replied quickly.
