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. Y
Derek was woken up by the pain in his back.He leaned against the bathtub in this position, so when he slept, his arm quickly became dislocated.Last night he helped Bertha and forgot to apply medicine to him. He was also careless and bumped into the sharp edge of the bed. He guessed that his back was more swollen than before.He sighed and tried to sit up when he suddenly discovered that Bertha was not in the bathtub.What did she wake up for?He didn't know anything, it seemed that this specific medicine had greatly reduced his sensitivity.He stood up and walked to the sink, looked in the mirror, and wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth, then he went downstairs to find Bertha.In the living room, the air pressure is extremely low.Bertha folded her arms across her chest, and she sat on the sofa with a cold face.The four bodyguards Tommy, Tyrone, Casey, and Emilio were standing behind the sofa with dark gray faces like ghosts.When Derek came down the stairs and saw this sce
But when she looked towards Tommy, her face was still cold and emotionless as she spoke. "Do you feel like I'm doing too much?"Tommy knelt on the spot. "I didn't mean this, everything you did was right. But I know, you didn't want to kill Derek either."Hearing Tommy say that, Bertha's heart felt much better.She thought for a moment, looking towards Casey. "You go to his house and bring Mrs. Victoria here, quickly.""Yes, miss."Casey immediately set off.Bertha heard the screams become more and more intense, with a hint of desperation somewhere.Even the tall bodyguards here were scared, and they even felt that this was like extremely cruel auditory torture.Ten minutes passed, and Bertha finally spoke."Open the refrigerator and get a bucket of ice water and bring it to him to cool down."The guards were stunned for a moment, then they obediently followed Bertha's instructions, taking some ice and a bucket of water.They opened the basement room door, and rays of light entered, dr
Bertha stood up and walked in front of Mrs. Victoria, she was, looking down at her. "So who gave you that medicine? Who helped you think of a way to pretend to be sick?"Mrs. Victoria was stunned and did not answer.Bertha laughed. "Based on your intelligence, you just want to get me pregnant. People ask you to do such things to benefit themselves. You are being used by others without knowing it, It's really stupid."For the first time, Mrs. Victoria was scolded like that, but thinking back, she felt that Bertha was right."That's right, I was taken advantage of. It was that old fox Devon, he said that if he just urged Derek and his friends to get along, Tibble's family would be able to return to the way it was before. I really shouldn't believe it." on those ridiculous words of his."Mr. Devon?Indeed, it was that old fox.He's an old man but he uses such vile tricks, it's truly shameless.Mrs. Victoria hugged Derek, she was crying and begging. "Bertha, Derek's whole body is getting
By eight o'clock at night, all the staff had gone home, and the lights in her room were still on. Venn knew she was working overtime, so he came down from the top floor to visit her."Bertha, it's already late, the debut plan is for tomorrow and then continue, there are still a few days left before the live broadcast of the show."Bertha said "Yes" softly, her fingers still typing on the keyboard.Venn knew he couldn't persuade her. He sighed and was about to leave when he suddenly realized that Bertha's face was not good."Kid, have you been sick recently? Why is your face so poor?"Bertha's hand suddenly stopped for a moment, she remembered that last night she soaked herself in cold water for maybe half the evening, maybe that's why her face was a bit pale."I'm fine, don't worry, I'll finish work and go home.""Okay."Venn's expression was very serious, how could he not understand his sister's personality? Seeing the pupils in her eyes move slightly, he immediately knew that the ma
Derek looked up, his eyes looking straight at her."In the past, you loved me so much that you gave up everything for me, but I didn't appreciate it at all. Now I finally understand my heart. I've been with you for a while. I realized then how miserable you were.”He paused for a moment, his eyes filled with pleading. "Bertha, I know it's too late to say these things. Before, I said things that hurt you. From now on, you can scold me every day, and vent your anger on me, and I won't resent you. I owe you, even if it's just a sentence, I will pay you back. Can you give me one last chance, okay?"Every day, he cursed and vented his anger at him.His brain is truly broken.Bertha was cold, the first time she said the words in her heart to him. "Originally, after the divorce, I just wanted to treat you as a stranger in the future, but your mother, your sister, and your fiancée provoked me time and time again. You sent Cadell for Laura. come to kill me, why should I give you the last chanc
