Boniface seriously looked at Bruno's testimony. Immediately, his face changed clearly."Oh my god, niece, this has nothing to do with me, why would I want to harm you? When you were little, I loved you very much, I even carried you a few times, do you remember? Anyway, Bruno, I'm also a judge, and I'm just a normal person, how can I give him orders?""Hmm?"Bertha changed her tone. "I heard that your son, my beloved cousin Maximus, just took office. I wonder if this has anything to do with him. You say, should I ask my eldest brother to help me with this?" "No. It has nothing to do with him.”Bertha immediately slammed her hand on the table, her eyes turning fierce. "Why doesn't this have anything to do with him? Bruno admitted it, do you think you can deny it with just a few words from you? Do you think that without Maximus, you can rely on yourself to give Bruno orders? Let me guess, you're doing this for your inheritance, right?"Boniface stared at Bertha, but he did not answer."
She took a deep breath, her tone calm. "If you don't see him come back, he's not necessarily dead. Send someone to find him.""Mistress! Mistress!"Tyrone hurriedly ran into Bertha's room and said. "Liam called and said he expected you to arrange your return. Mr. Derek is waiting for you at the beach villa.""Mr. Derek isn't dead yet? Is he back? Was he not injured last night?" Tommy snorted, he was extremely happy.Bertha said nothing, she looked at Tyrone, waiting for him to answer.Tyrone shook his head. "I don't know, Liam just said that, but if Mr. Derek was at the beach villa waiting for you, he must have returned home safely."Hearing this, Bertha and Tommy breathed a sigh of relief."Pack your things, and book your plane tickets as soon as possible, we'll go back to city X immediately."She wants to know what Derek and Archie are doing."Yes, Mistress."They quickly got on the earliest flight the same day to return to City X.When they returned to the beach villa, it was alrea
She wiped her tears and looked at Liam, her voice hoarse. "Are you guys working together to deceive me? You randomly picked a bottle and brought it here to deceive me? Do you think I will believe it? Even if he dies, I have to see his body.""He thinks doing this will make me cry? Does he think I'll give him another chance? Dream on.""This is ashes, right? Then I'll break it, see if he's still pretending?"The corners of her eyes were red, her expression still cold, she held the bottle up high as if she was about to let go and let it fall to the ground."Do not."Liam, Aran, and Jason cried out in unison, they knelt at the same time."He's dead. Whether you believe it or not, he'll never come back again. He initially had injuries on his body. When he got there last night, he was already ready to leave. He died for you."Bertha looked down at them in horror.These people are all close friends with Derek, they are all honest, strong men.But they kneel at her feet just because of a jar
She wiped her tears, trying to adjust her voice as normally as possible. "What is up?"The person standing outside the door was Tyrone."Miss, Liam has already brought Mr. Derek's ashes back to his home. His burial date has also been chosen, which is November 4th."Bertha frowned slightly.November 4th?There are only three days left, why are they in such a hurry?Derek's funeral was helped by Venn and Liam. Organized by Victoria.After returning from S city, Venn heard about this.Even though Derek died because of Bertha, Venn wasn't moved in his heart. He knew Bertha wouldn't accept this result, so he held a funeral for her to help ease her guilt somewhat. With Venn's presence, no press or media agency dares to spread the news, even rich families do not dare to talk nonsense.Derek's funeral was truly humble.During these three days, the weather in City X was very bad.It's always raining, and every time I walk I feel cold.On the day of his funeral, the weather was even darker, th
In the cemetery, Mrs. Victoria cried so much that she almost fainted. Fortunately, Rose stood by her side to help her and advise her, and gradually she stabilized her emotions.Finally, the funeral ended, and each group of associates, friends, and relatives left one by one, everyone in an unhappy mood.Someone sighed in regret that a young talent in the business world like Derek died so early.Some people feel sorry for Tibble's family when there are only two women left, and one Mr. Devon is incompetent, afraid that they will face many difficulties in the days to come.Waiting for everyone to leave, Rose helped her mother walk out of the cemetery.As soon as Rose raised her head, she saw Bertha standing under the tree over there. She immediately became angry. "It's all your fault. If it wasn't for you, how could he die? Why are you here?"Bertha didn't object, she lowered her head and looked at the ground.Venn didn't want to see his sister criticized by others, he immediately turned
He is truly evil.Bertha was very angry, she started to want to hit him to vent her anger, so she continued reading."Bertha. By the time you read this letter, I may have left you forever. This is the last thing I voluntarily do for you. You don't need to feel guilty and don't blame yourself. Do you know if you cried when you heard the news of my death? I hope you will cry, I'm also afraid you will cry because I don't want to make you sad Griselda's house is cheerful and innocent."Just reading this, Bertha couldn't help but cry.She wiped the tears from her cheeks and calmly continued reading."The thing that makes me regret the most is that when you entered Tibble's family, I didn't appreciate you. Until I realized I loved you, you didn't love me anymore. It's okay, even if you only think of me as a toy or a maid, just seeing you at the villa every day makes me feel satisfied.After I discovered I loved you, I became an insecure, scared person. You just unintentionally smiled at me,
Now that she thought about it, she felt something was unusual.She called Tyrone into her room. "You call Liam, tell him I want to see him. Right now, tell him to come here immediately. Hurry."Tyrone quickly went to find Liam.Half an hour later, Liam hurriedly ran to the villa.When he entered the room, he saw Bertha sitting on Derek's bed, her eyes lifeless, her whole body dull.In her hand she was holding Derek's bloody shirt, her tears had been wiped away, only her eyes were red and swollen from crying so much that she couldn't hide it.Liam bowed his head, his mood dropping. "Miss. Bertha, why did you call me so urgently?"Bertha looked at the bloody shirt in her hand choked up and asked. "The day you and Derek went to that abandoned house, did you meet a member of the secret investigation department? Was he seriously injured?"Liam didn't reply."Please tell me the truth, even if you tell the truth, things cannot change anymore. I just want to know the story."Liam sighed and t
That night, he endured the intense pain, curled up in her arms, infatuated with the warmth of her body.But what did she do?Not only did she coldly chase him out, but she also said hurtful words to him.Liam was right, she treated him cruelly, but he had never complained before.He put aside all his arrogance and humbly begged her forgiveness.He says. “Don't… let me hug you for a moment, just this once…”Derek also said. “Don't, I beg you…”It was obvious that he was in so much pain that his breathing trembled, but he still greedily clung to her arms and refused to let go.It was obvious that Derek was so seriously injured, why didn't he tell her?Is it because you're afraid she'll feel guilty? Afraid she will terminate the labor contract because of this?He's such an idiot.Bertha curled up in the recliner, her emotions completely broken, her whole body in pain.'Derek…'Her throat was so hoarse that she couldn't make a clear sound, so she repeated silently.'Before, you used to be
