Bertha was terrified inside, she felt hopeless.Before she didn't dare tell her brothers, first because she was afraid the news would get out, and second because she was scared, that even if her brothers were grateful to Shane, they would still prevent her from continuing to be with Shane.Unexpectedly, she guessed correctly.But now that Bertha's words had been said, other than advising them, she had no way to regret it.She bit her lip, and her tears fell from her cheeks, carrying sobs of accusation."My life is important, then Shane's life is not important? He became like this because of me. If it weren't for him, the person lying in the hospital bed right now would be me. How could you be so indifferent to him?”The three men fell silent at the same time.Venn is the person who knows best about these things, moreover, before Karlina's birthday party, he and Shane talked to each other. He liked that kid's straightforward and sincere personality.He was very guilty in his heart, he
Bertha was a bit hesitant. "But, Shane..."“As for the boss, you can rest assured, that with your three brothers here, the boss will be fine. Miss. Bertha, don't refuse me anymore, let me follow you!”Seeing his persistence, Bertha agreed.After arranging everything, Bertha contacted Bruno again, she bought two plane tickets, and the next morning, they would fly to country H.In the evening, she returned to Shane's hospital room, Venn was sitting on the bed next to him, and he fell asleep.Bertha gently entered, but Venn still regained consciousness. "He wasn't awake yet. He called your name twice in the middle. He couldn't sleep peacefully.""Third brother, you've worked hard, go rest tonight, I'll watch over him."Venn was heartbroken for her. "Early the next morning, you're going to board the plane. Why don't you sleep a little longer? Why are you watching him? I'm here, you rest.""I can't sleep. If I sleep with him, maybe I can sleep.""Okay, then I won't bother you anymore." Ven
The man sat by the bed, speaking, his voice lacking any emotion.“Why did you come here? Did she tell you about my illness?”Shane pushed himself up and leaned against the headboard.His hands touched the bed, discovering that it was not a very large bed. This was not their home, this was like a laboratory hospital room.Venn didn't lie, he frankly said "Um".Shane's tone was low, and he immediately asked. “So where is Bertha?”"She…"Venn thought for a moment before speaking. “She has personal business, she has to leave home for a few days.”Shane's heart suddenly calmed down and he held his hand tightly. "Personal work? What personal business could she have, was she looking for Bruno? She promised me she wouldn't go looking for him. Impossible."His emotions gradually became agitated, his whole body was on the verge of losing control and going crazy, he flipped the blanket and wanted to get out of bed.Because he couldn't see, he tripped, his whole body lost balance, and fell to the
“Bertha.”Shane had just woken up with a start. He wasn't conscious yet, but his mouth was muttering Bertha's name repeatedly.Venn was a bit emotional, he loved Bertha.“Shane, it's time to take your medicine,” Venn spoke softly, he picked up the glass of water.Shane is three years older than Venn, but he has a good relationship with Venn's sister, and Shane will later be his brother-in-law. Now that Venn called Shane's name, this was the maximum limit he could accept.Shane struggled to sit up but found that his hands and feet were tied, and his cold face turned fierce.“Let me go, I want to see Bertha.” His tone was full of stubbornness mixed with aggression.Venn sighed. “I said, she's not here, can you obediently take the medicine? Don't move. The second brother tied you up very tightly, the more you struggled, the more it hurt."Shane originally did not listen to Venn's words.Shane's black eyes were full of anger, he was frantically rolling his nerves, his fists were clenched,
Venn carefully reminded. “The wound on your wrist was self-inflicted. When Bertha comes back, don't say it was me who did it, let alone being beaten by you today, my right shoulder still hurts."Shane curled up in the blanket, turned over, and turned his back to Venn. "I want to be alone."Venn stood up. “Okay, what do you want for breakfast? I told the maid to prepare it, I'll be back in an hour.""I do not eat."Shane lay on his side, he closed his eyes.“That won't work, you have to eat, don't you want to know about Bertha anymore?”Shane was very upset, he gritted his teeth and said coldly. “Venn, what I hate most is being threatened by others.”“I don't mean to threaten you, this is just a condition of exchange, if you are not interested in Bertha, I brought you breakfast, you can choose not to eat it.”His voice was very low, his intonation a bit arrogant.“But if you don't eat breakfast, I absolutely won't tell you any news about Bertha. If you want to know, you have to listen
Today is Bertha's husband Derek's birthday - she has gone shopping and will organize a surprise party for him, in the hope, he will understand her sincere feelings.When Bertha entered the living room, she saw no one. She went to the kitchen and asked a maid where her husband was. But, the maid just smirked at her.Bertha was used to the times when she asked but no one answered. Because all of Tibble's family's maids don't care about her.Bertha went to their bedroom. Nearing the door, she suddenly heard a vague sound coming from inside. She thought she heard wrong but no, the sound was quite clear.Frowning, Bertha slowly turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. She was behind the door so she couldn't see if Derek was in there or not, but when she faced the bed, she froze on the spot.Bertha didn't know if she was in reality or just dreaming, but she saw her husband in bed with another girl. They weren't wearing anything, what was covering their bodies was the blanket she used to
Bertha woke up the next afternoon. Windy is sitting in a chair, working on her computer. When Windy saw that Bertha was awake, he closed the computer and placed it on the table.Windy sat on the edge of the bed and said. "Fever, injured legs and knees. All caused by people from Tibble's family, right?"Bertha pressed her hand to her temple, remembering what happened yesterday."Bertha, what's so good about Derek, why do you love him despite your injury? I called him and said you were at the hospital. I told him to come here but he didn't answer but also disconnected my call." Windy was angry when he thought of Derek, that man was a beast in a human shell.Bertha still said nothing. She sat still on the bed, crying non-stop. She didn't cry because she was beaten or injured, she cried because the person she called her husband was so cruel. Hearing Windy's words, she cried even harder."I warned you. Derek isn't as good as you think." Windy said.But Bertha didn't listen to Windy, and sti
Bertha walked out of the building, stopping for a minute to look at the blue sky. She felt inexplicably relieved in her heart.She walked over to Windy's car and got in. Seeing Windy attentively typing on her phone, she sat down silently."Are you done?" Windy turned off her phone, she looked at Bertha expectantly."Everything is over." Having finished speaking, Bertha tilted her head and looked out the car window. Looking at the leaves on the road gradually turning yellow, she continued. "Windy, tomorrow morning, he and I will go to court."Windy's hand holding the steering wheel trembled slightly. She tilted her head and glanced at Bertha. Her eyes lit up and she spoke. "I'm glad you finally thought it through. Let's go home. I told your problem to your father and stepmother. They were very worried about you, and at the same time they were relieved to know that you decided to divorce."Bertha's sad expression flashed across her face. She knew she had disappointed her father. At that
