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
At this moment, he screamed miserably again. Was he intentionally pretending to be weak?He publicly denounced Venn.Casey and Emilio were angry, but they couldn't show any expression in front of Bertha.Bertha couldn't read the thoughts of the two of them.Derek's condition is quite poor, not like he's pretending.She unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt and pulled it down.Her eyes were covered with bruises, almost no part of it was healed, there were a few places where she had been hit hard, the scars had turned into dark purple blood streaks, and there were even broken, patchy wounds. blood.Casey and Emilio saw her face becoming colder and colder, they knew that in a second she would explode, so they prepared to kneel.Bertha's voice was calm. “Who hit him?”The two of them couldn't guess whether she was angry or not, so they answered honestly."It's the third young master."“What did he use to hit?”“Use… rattan whip, hit ninety times.”Casey stopped, and he quickly defended Venn
Bertha stopped at the door for a moment, smiling in response. "What are you suddenly telling me these things for? Do you think I will care about you?"Having finished speaking, she opened the door and went out.Casey was waiting outside the door when he saw her come out with a strange look on her face."Miss. Bertha?"She regained consciousness and glanced at the medicine box in Tommy's hand. "You go into the room and apply the medicine to him.""Yes."Casey bowed slightly, and after seeing her leave the second floor, he entered Derek's room.Derek was still in a dazed state.Looking at Bertha's reaction just now, she seemed very surprised by Fawn's matter, it seemed like this matter had nothing to do with her.He breathed a sigh of relief, the burden in his heart suddenly disappeared."Hey, Mr. Derek?"Casey's angry expression interrupted his dazed state. "Please take off your shirt and lie down on your stomach so I can apply the medicine."Derek took the medicine box from him. “No n
"Mr. Derek, Mrs. Victoria fell down the stairs. She said she wanted to see you. Please follow me to the car."Mrs. Victoria fell?Why is that?"Okay."Derek looked through the window and saw the other three people happily talking and laughing, his dark eyes contained complicated thoughts, then he immediately followed Tommy back home.—Mrs. Victoria was taken to the hospital, her leg was in a plaster cast and she was lying on the bed looking dejected.Hearing the door open, she looked up, and seeing that it was the boy she had always been waiting for, her eyes immediately turned red."Derek, I almost thought for the rest of my life I would never see you again..."Derek only lightly touched Mrs. Victoria's leg, which was in a cast, but she immediately shouted.Seeing her fake reaction, Derek walked over to the chair next to the bed and sat down."Why did you fall down the stairs?"Mrs. Victoria was upset. She was about to explain when she saw Tommy standing behind Derek. "Dude, I haven
Bertha came to City X because she wanted to meet and get to know Derek after Derek's father told her a lot about him.For the past three years, she's been looking for a way to melt his icy heart. But he hurt Bertha for so many years, causing her love for him to now only become cold and revengeful.Derek's heart ached.Now he wants to save this love, is there still time?After exchanging news with Liam, Derek went down to the living room on the first floor in a complicated mood.Tommy lay on the sofa in the living room and he didn't wake up that quickly.Derek quietly walked next to him and sat down.He hadn't been sitting down for two minutes when Tommy woke up, he opened his eyes and saw Derek's expressionless face.He says. “I didn't expect you to fall asleep.”Tommy was stunned.“How can I sleep?”Derek's appearance is dignified. “I finished talking and saw you sleeping here. I waited for you to wake up. If Bertha knew about this when she returned, how angry would she be? But don't
Besides sarcasm and coldness, there was no emotion left in those eyes.Derek's heart ached.He was not surprised when the words Mrs. Victoria said that day the bodyguards overheard and they informed her, but he absolutely would not do such dirty things.“I will never do such actions to force you. From now on, I will not lie and pretend with you anymore. Whether you believe it or not, I will prove it to you. I owe you three years of youth, whether compensation or pay the price, I am willing to accept, as long as you can give me one more chance.”"Opportunity?"When Bertha heard that, she burst out laughing. “I don't care if you took the wrong medicine today or if you have a problem with your mind, but there is this matter, I have to tell you. I will never remarry you, there is no possibility of that in my whole life unless I die.”Unless she dies?Derek smiled painfully, he understood her personality but he still didn't give up, he had to try and it would make his heart hurt even more.
She was weak so this slap wasn't strong but Derek was about to go to the bathroom so he was caught off guard.Bertha struggled and slipped from his grasp, but her hand still clung tightly to the hem of his shirt.The two of them suddenly lost their focus and fell to the ground.Seeing that Bertha's head was about to hit the edge of the bed, he didn't care about anything, he wrapped his arms around her neck and then hugged her, using his back to ground himself.His back hit the edge of the bed hard, the swollen wound had not yet healed, and the pain caused him to break out in a cold sweat, almost fainting on the spot.Before the pain in his back could dissipate, he received a second slap in the face.Bertha broke free of his arms, pinned him to the floor, and pressed her knees against his chest, her hands tightening on his collar.When she looked at him, her eyes were filled with hatred for the first time.“Derek, you are despicable, shameless, what you said just now was just an act.
