Chapter 383
Be‘s POV:
In the next few days, I wanted to talk about our marriage with Herbert several times.
All of my colleagues now believed that I was in a rtionship with Connor. I denied it but those people
didn‘t believe me, so I didn‘t exin it anymore. If such a misunderstandingsted too long, it would be
very bad. And most importantly, I wanted to restore my marriage with Herbert. I wanted to be Herbert‘s
legal wife. I knew that he loved me and the children. But every time I mentioned the remarriage, he
would change the topic before I could finish my words.
In the evening, Herbert came back in a hurry.
“You‘re back? Dinner will be ready soon.” I, who was sitting in the living room ying with the children,
said to Herbert with a smile.
Herbert put down the briefcase in his hand walked over, and touched Lucas and Lucky‘s heads. Then he
said eagerly, “I have something to do in New York. Please help me pack some clothes.”
Hearing this, I couldn‘t help but frown and ask, “It‘s getting dark. It‘s not safe for you to travel on the road
for a few hours. Why don‘t you leave early tomorrow morning?”
“No, I‘m in a hurry to go back.” Herbert insisted. “Why are you in such a hurry? Did something happen?” I
looked at his face carefully and felt that something big had happened. However, Herbert denied it. “It‘s
nothing serious. My mother came back from her vacation in Canada. She‘s not feeling well, and we
haven‘t seen each other for a long time. I‘ll go and see her.”
Hearing this, I nodded and didn‘t say anything more. Lwent upstairs to pack his clothes. I put a few new
clothes and daily necessities into the suitcase and closed it. I couldn‘t help but think about it. Logically
speaking, after Mckennareturned from Canada, if Herbert wanted to go back to visit her, . he should have
brought me and our children with him. After all, it had been a long time since Mckenna had seen Lucas.
She had never seen Lucky before, and I was the mother of the children, Herbert‘s future wife. ording
to etiquette, he should have let us meet with McKenna. But he didn‘t do that. The only probability was
that McKenna still couldn‘t ept me, and she didn‘t like the children I gave birth to. I didn‘t care what
she thought. She didn‘t like me, and I didn‘t like her either.
After that, I went downstairs with the suitcase.
Herbert put Lucky down and reached out to take it from me. “When will youe back?” I asked.
Herbert thought for a moment, then said, “Perhaps it will take a week.”
“That long?” I was a little reluctant to part with Herbert.
Seeing this, Herbert reached out and patted me on the cheek. In a soft voice, he said, “Connor will stay
behind to help me deal with my daily affairs. Call him if you need anything.” “You aren‘t bringing Connor
with you?” Hearing these words, I was a bit surprised. Wherever he went, Herbert would bring Connor
with him. Why didn‘t he bring him along this time? “Because I‘ll be gone for a long time, and there are too
many things in thepany that need to be dealt with, so Connor won‘t go with me. Alright, I‘m leaving.
You take good care of the children and yourself!” After saying this, Herbert nced at me and the
children, then turned around and left with his suitcase.
In the blink of an eye, it had been a week since he left. During that time, he only sent a few messages
and made a phone call.
I was a little worried. I called him, but I heard people over there talking andughing. He should be at a
party. Herbert only said a few words and then hung up in a hurry. His tone was a little impatient.
Since then, I never called him again. I was afraid of disturbing him, but I also felt a little aggrieved.
That evening, I came back from work.
As soon as I walked to the door of the vi?a, I saw Herbert‘s ck Bentley parked at the door. Knowing
that he was back, I felt a burst of joy in my heart. I walked quickly into the vi and saw that Gary was
ying with Lucky Lucky saw me and spread out her two small hands as she shouted, “Mommy,
mommy!”
I quickly took Lucky and asked, “Is Herbert back?” “It‘s been more than an hour since he came back.
He‘s talking to Connor upstairs. Miranda went to pick Lucas up,” Gary replied. I nodded, kissed Lucky‘s
cheek, and said happily, “Mommy will take you to daddy, okay?” “Okay.” Lucky nodded and said okay.

After that, I carried her upstairs.
Knowing that he was back, I walked faster with Lucky in my arms. The anger in my heart disappeared
completely a few days ago. Everything left now was the joy of Herbert being back home.
I walked to the study, carrying Lucky in my arms. The door of the study was half–closed, and the
conversation between Herbert and Connor could be heard from outside.
“Let‘s make the arrangements as soon as possible. We can‘t make any mistakes.” This was Herbert‘s
voice. “I‘ll immediately instruct my subordinates to do it.” Connor replied. Hearing that they were talking
about work, I stood at the door and didn‘t go in, for fear of disturbing them. Afterward, Connor changed
the topic. Suddenly, he said, “Mr. Wharton, how‘s the matter with Master going?”
Herbert was silent for a moment, and then he replied, “I’ve already settled everything. There
shouldn‘t be much of a big deal.”
“Since that‘s the case, then can you and Miss Stepanek quickly get married again?” Connor asked.
Standing outside, I was clueless when I heard these words and couldn‘t help but think, “The master
should be Herbert‘s father. Did something happen to him?” But when I heard that it was nothing serious, I
was relieved. After that, I heard Connor ask what I wanted to ask for the past few days, I couldn‘t help
but feel nervous, because I wanted to know what kind of attitude Herbert had toward the remarriage.
After a while, Herbert‘s voice came from the half–closed door. “I don‘t have any ns to remarry her for
the time being.”
When I heard this sentence, I was stunned.
