She caressed Derek's face, and even though the swelling on his cheek had gone down, she still discovered the clue.“What's wrong with your left cheek? Who hit you? It was Bertha who hit you, right?”Derek held her hand. “No, it's Uncle Devon.”“That old man dares to hit you? Once Tibble's family's difficulties pass, I will deal with him."She was so angry that she was panting. She thought of Bertha who had never beaten her son. So Bertha still loves her son in her heart?She looked around and confirmed that not far away two bodyguards were chatting. They didn't have time to pay attention to this side. She leaned close to Derek's ear and whispered.“Son, this woman is not simple, from Laura's imprisonment to Tibble's family's bankruptcy, everything, she calculated very well. Last time Zillah also suspected her identity, but in the end she didn't say anything. I feel that her identity is not simple.”Derek's eyebrows furrowed, silently listening to her words.“Son, please find an opport
After leaving the house, the bodyguard stuffed Derek into the car and returned to the beach villa.Back at the villa, Tommy and Casey hid in a dark place and talked to him. "Mr. Derek, I'm guessing about four hours, Miss. Bertha will return. Even though it will take a few hours to go out today, you should still finish your housework before Miss. Bertha returns.”"I know."Derek said expressionlessly, pushing open the door to the mansion.Bertha was an hour late and finally got off work.Tibble Corporation was taken over by Mrs. Victoria and Zillah collapsed, leaving many holes, and the stock was also much worse than before.Bertha must put in more effort to bring Tibble Corporation back to its original peak. She can then find Helga Corporation to collect the debt.Returning to the beach villa, she did not rush to go inside the house and called Tommy and Casey, hiding in a private place.“Mistress.”Both began to report. “Today Mr. Derek didn't do anything out of the ordinary.”Bertha
Derek's guilt deepened, he put his hand to his lips, signaling Liam to retreat, and then walked up the stairs.In-room.Bertha saw him enter, her eyes were cold to the bone.Waiting for him to come in front of her, she opened her mouth."Kneel."Derek was stunned for two seconds, his face filled with resistance.Even though he felt very guilty in his heart, it didn't mean he let her trample on his dignity.“As a man, I can kneel in front of my parents, but I don't kneel…”“Okay, you're not kneeling, right? It seems like you enjoy being surrounded by others. Then let me call the bodyguards in, they will help you kneel.”Bertha didn't have the patience to listen to him finish, she was about to ring the alarm at the head of the bed when she heard the sound of Derek's knees hitting the floor.“I kneel but I'm not afraid of you,” Derek said arrogantly.Seeing his arrogant expression, she coldly snorted and shouted. "Give me medicine."Derek quickly opened the medicine box, he began to seri
Derek's health is no longer the same as before, he was pushed to the ground by her.Bertha didn't look at him, she turned and left the villa.Derek didn't chase.He sat on the ground silently for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.It wasn't until the sound of the car's engine that he stood up and walked to the window to look.Several bodyguards followed Bertha, they sat in the car.Two minutes later, along with the roaring sound of engines, two small cars also sped away under the moonlight.Bertha left the villa, the whole villa was unusually quiet.Derek snapped out of his jealous thoughts and looked around Bertha's room.She left and took all her bodyguards with her. Are there any clues in her room that prove her true identity?Because I don't know if she will return suddenly or not, if he searches now, it is the most suitable time.Derek paid attention, then looked outside the window for a while, his eyes extremely complicated.At this time, at an intersection two hundred m
Bertha asked all the girls in turn, and they all gave very fake answers, without any results.Bertha could only find Ivy who was eliminated last week to ask.Ivy said. "My votes were so low that I was eliminated, how would I know? But, indeed, Zillah never came to find me, this is not like she did. But I know that Barbara had a bad relationship with Mica before. She often takes advantage of the camera's absence to secretly bully Mica. Maybe you can investigate this."Barbara?Bertha nodded. "Okay."Bertha immediately asked the person in charge to investigate Barbara's diary and discovered she had just gone out early that morning. Half an hour after she left, the organization area reported that Mica was missing.Could this be a case of violence?Bertha quickly called the staff to find an excuse to call Barbara back.Barbara entered the staging area and was grabbed by staff, taking her into the conference room.Bertha sat at the head of the conference table, staring coldly at her, start
Because it's rest time, there are no cameras in the venue, and places like the restrooms don't even have surveillance cameras.Kelly learned that Barbara was suddenly kicked out of the competition, so she went to the organization area and dealt with Mica so that Mica wouldn't dare report her again.Mica was cornered, her whole body trembling, the words Bertha said in the morning suddenly appeared in her mind.She gritted her teeth, picked up the dirty mop in the corner, and waved it majestically in front of the other three people.“Kelly, I tell you, I always gave in to you before, but from now on, you will not dare to touch a hair of mine.”"Okay. So let's play a game, let's see if you can beat us?"Four girls rushed into each other, the bathroom kept ringing with shrill screams, and the scene was chaotic.The next morning Bertha found out about this.Kelly's face and nose were bruised from being beaten so severely, that she announced that she wanted to hire a lawyer to sue Mica for
He had not yet had time to digest the pain brought by that rattan whip, followed by a second and third, directly hitting his back, leaving him with absolutely no chance to breathe.Pain, really pain.Because he was injected with special medicine, his physical condition became very weak, his skin also became more fragile, and the feeling of pain increased even more.This special medicine was originally used for prisoners of war and kidnappers who committed major crimes. After being injected, their bodies will have no ability to resist, and the pain during punishment will greatly increase, leading to extreme physical and mental torture.Unexpectedly, one day, this drug would be used to torture him, even though the version of the drug had been improved.The sharp pain in his back interrupted his thoughts.More than twenty lashes landed on Derek's back, the bottom of his shirt turning a purple-red color.He held his breath, not letting himself scream, he bit his lower lip until it bled, c
Nine o'clock in the evening. Derek was awakened by the sound of birds singing. He endured the pain in his back, gritted his teeth, and reluctantly stood up. He still has work to do in the evening, so he has to stay awake. He returned from the railing to his room on the second floor, went into the bathroom, and turned on the shower on the hot water side. Because the shirt on his back was stained with blood, he was in a coma for six hours. He didn't have time to change clothes, so the blood from the wound got on his shirt. If he tried to change his clothes, he could peel off a layer of skin, so he could only use hot water to remove his shirt quickly. When the hot water touched the wound on his back, it was like he was being tortured a second time, like there were hundreds of needles on his back. Derek was in so much pain that he was shaking. He clenched his teeth. Even though his body ached, his mind became more and more alert. A few minutes later, he changed into a clean shirt
