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 time, there was only Derek in her heart, she was like a fool, despite everything to pursue love. She never listens to other people's advice.
"I feel sorry for them. Now I know who Derek is. I don't want anything to do with him or his family anymore."
Windy observed that Bertha was quiet. She secretly glanced at Bertha. She was afraid Bertha would be attached, not wanting to break up with Derek when she saw Bertha tilting her head and looking out the window. So she quickly changed the subject and exclaimed. "After you get divorced, we'll go to bars, go shopping, travel. We'll go back to our old single days."
The corner of Bertha's lips curled slightly when she heard Windy's words. She turned back to Windy and said. “Okay, we'll have fun.”
Seeing that Bertha didn't seem to pay attention to Derek anymore, the smile on Windy's face became even wider.
---
Next morning. Bertha and Derek went to the people's court together. When Bertha arrived, Derek was standing in the doorway.
The clothes Bertha was wearing were ugly sidewalk clothes, and Derek was wearing a high-class black suit standing together, revealing a disharmonious look, and attracting the curious eyes of many people around.
But Bertha didn't care, she just wanted to end it quickly.
In just ten minutes, this heavy marriage finally came to an end.
Looking at the divorce certificate in her hand, Bertha's eyes flashed with panic.
“From now on, I hope you live well.”
The cold voice came. When Bertha raised her head, the figure of a certain man had disappeared, without a word, without a glance, as if it had never appeared from beginning to end.
"That's good." She smiled and shook her head.
If he was so unintentional, then if we met again in the future, we would only be strangers.
Now that she is free, she will not pity a heartless person like Derek, much less be laughed at by the Tibble family.
She stopped thinking and walked out of the court gate.
Suddenly, a limited edition black Bentley business car stopped in front of her.
The car door opened, and a middle-aged man with slightly silver hair protected by four bodyguards walked towards her.
Bertha saw the person coming, raised her chin slightly, and her whole body suddenly exuded an innate noble aura. “I just got divorced, someone came to pick me up. Did my father tell you to come pick me up?”
Butler Smith bowed to her and then spoke. “Yes. Miss. Miss Windy told the boss everything. The promised three-year period between you and your boss has come to an end."
He stopped for a moment, glanced at the divorce certificate in Bertha's hand, looked regretful, and said. “Looks like you can't make Derek love you. If that's the case, then you should keep your promise and return to City Y to inherit the family business."
Bertha frowned and remained silent for a long time. Three years ago, she was traveling in X city, met Derek by chance and fell in love with him. She decides to marry him, no matter what. So she agreed with her father. If in three years, she doesn't make Derek love her, she will return as the heiress to Griselda's family.
Looking back today, because a man didn't love her, these three years were a waste.
"The boss misses you very much, miss, you come with me, don't make the boss angry anymore, he misses you very much..." Mr. Smith said.
Bertha interrupted him, her expression growing colder. "Besides him, there is also that woman. Griselda's family has no shortage of free people, which is me. You have more important things to do in X city. I won't go back."
Bertha doesn't want to return just to face her stepmother. Her stepmother originally didn't like her.
Mr. Smith sighed. “Boss guessed right, you don't want to go back so easily.”
After he finished speaking, he reached into his pocket and took out a powerful diamond card. “Here is your card, there are three billion dollars inside.”
Then, he signaled to the bodyguard behind him. The bodyguard quickly brought a contract and placed it in Bertha's hand.
Mr. Smith said. "Your father said that if you don't return, you should take over the management of Angle Group, a subsidiary of Griselda Group in City X, and increase the group's profits this year five times higher than in previous years. "
Bertha doesn't want to go home to face her stepmother, so she accepts her father's offer.
Bertha took the pen, signed the contract, and received a powerful card with a balance of three billion dollars.
Looking at the credit card, she laughed and shook her head.
A few minutes ago, she was so poor that she had less than ten dollars in her pocket, not enough to catch a taxi, so she had to hitch a ride with Windy. Now, she has the card in hand. Lucky.
Because of the previous agreement between her and her father, her bank card account was frozen, and she had to hide her true identity, otherwise it would be considered a violation of the agreement.
Tibble's family doesn't look at her, including the maid. If they knew she was the only daughter of Griselda's family - Bertha Griselda - one of the richest families in the country - a female billionaire worth hundreds of billions, what would they think?
She still remembers the days at Tibble's house, one time she knelt and begged her mother-in-law to lend her money to treat a friend of hers.
Mrs. Victoria arrogantly took out a platinum card, not to give it to her, but to show off. "Guess how much money is in here? One hundred million dollars, you probably haven't seen that much money in your whole life?"
"I would rather use this money to buy dog food than lend you money. Because in my eyes, your friend is not even as good as a dog."
Bertha clenched her fist, a hint of mockery somewhere crossing her eyes. If given the chance, she wants to punish them, the people who offended her.
Mrs. Victoria was happy when her son divorced Bertha. She thought that Bertha didn't know her status, like an orphan, how could she be suitable for her outstanding son.Derek pursed his lips, his mood a complete contrast to his mother's excitement.He even felt a little uncomfortable and had an inexplicable sense of guilt.Previously, he thought that Bertha would not easily agree to a divorce, so he prepared three million dollars and a villa as compensation, but this time she was the one who proactively proposed a divorce. kiss, she doesn't even need a penny in compensation.After the divorce, she will become a person with no money and no relatives. How will she live in the future?Derek assumed she was an orphan because she never mentioned her relatives.He sadly pulled his tie, and Bertha's eyes appeared before him before leaving.Those eyes were cold as ice.Many times he treated her poorly, but she still gritted her teeth and endured it. But this time... why is she so determined t
The whole building exploded.First: a woman suspected of being CEO Venn's lover.Second: a mysterious CEO will appearPeople are excitedly speculating, are this new CEO and CEO Venn's lover the same person?However, they all did not know that they had changed bosses.Bertha hides her identity.One: because she had never managed the backstage of the entertainment industry and didn't understand the work process, she needed Venn to help her get through it.Second: she doesn't understand the company's employees, so she has to silently hide among the employees, becoming everyone's colleague, to help her quickly understand the employees' situation.At this time, everyone was still talking. Alex went to see Kayla - the receptionist, who despised Bertha, said coldly. "You're fired, pack your things and get out.""What?"Kayla was stunned, she felt like she was thrown into hell.It's over, she lost her job. Who did she piss off anyway?Seeming to think of something, her tear-stained face immed
Rose immediately walked towards Bertha. Laura pretended to stop him but couldn't. Then, Rose arrogantly raised her face and cleared her throat."Hey."Venn turned his head, that handsome face momentarily made Rose stunned.Does City X have a man as handsome as her brother?In an instant, Rose's jealousy and anger towards Bertha became even greater.“Who are you?” Venn coldly glanced at her.Bertha smiled, whispering in his ear. "She is my ex-sister-in-law, the most arrogant and stubborn person in the Tibble family."Hearing Bertha's words, Venn's expression became even colder.Although Bertha spoke softly, Rose heard it very clearly, the intimate action between the two of them stimulated her nerves even more.Because Venn was in front of her, Rose retracted the fierceness on her face, she showed an admonishing look, and her voice deliberately became sharp.“Don't let this woman deceive you, she was already married. Furthermore, she comes from a lowly background, has a cruel heart, she
It turns out his ex-wife is really that beautiful.Especially the eyes, like containing stars, transparent and steadfast, but also hiding a bit of stubbornness.Derek suddenly looked dumbfounded.These eyes gave him the illusion of knowing each other.While Derek was stunned, Bertha suddenly laughed, her eyes filled with coldness and contempt. “It's so embarrassing, you're not qualified to dance with me.” Then, she elegantly adjusted her outfit.Other people passing by, hearing Bertha's words, whispered to each other."This girl is too arrogant. She dares to tell City X's number one CEO Derek that he is not qualified?"Derek's face quickly turned dark, the familiar feeling from before was completely thrown to hell by Bertha's words.If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that Bertha would turn out like this.His hand still outstretched, he replied. “It's just a dance, aren't you scared?”Bertha's gaze also became cold. Why is this man so vile? He didn't unde
Receiving the confirmation message, Bertha leisurely sat down on the stone pedestal next to the fountain. Rose saw Bertha ignoring her and was a little angry. “Hey. Did you hear what I said?” Bertha lazily rubbed her shoulders. "Wait a minute." "Wait?" Rose frowned. "What are you waiting for? I know you have Venn now, but he's just playing with you. You think that men are handsome, have a lot of money, and have good family like Venn. Will agree to marry me? While she was still seducing, Alex arrived, carrying a black trunk in his hand, bowing respectfully to hand it to Bertha. “This is what you want.” Rose looked at the strange man who suddenly appeared, her face immediately turned confused. Bertha stood up and accepted the chest that Alex brought, the second time she looked towards Rose, her eyes flashed coldly, and her mouth curled into a smile. “You talked so much just now, now it's my turn to talk.” Rose looked at Vertha's smile, her face became even more confused. Berth
She was about to leave but was stopped by Rose's close friends. "Stop. You hit someone and then want to run away? There's no such thing as that simple." "If you don't explain today, you should never step out of this door." Bertha looked at the girls contemptuously. She was about to return when she saw Venn push the crowd away and come in front of her. The other girls' eyes lit up when they saw Venn, adding fuel to the fire. “Venn, this time you saw it, this woman is extremely cruel, bad, and bad.” "That's right, Venn, you must get justice for Rose. Also, how is this kind of woman suitable for someone like you?" Venn's face showed no emotion, he slowly took off his jacket. The girls watched in fascination as Venn gently put the shirt on Bertha's body, his eyes still as doting as before. "It's late at night, don't catch a cold." The sounds that were unfriendly to Bertha suddenly stopped. The girls looked jealous, wishing they could kill Bertha with their eyes. Venn paid them
Derek's face darkened, he looked at her with disappointment, his eyes filled with anger. “You are stubborn.” He pulled Rose's hand from his sleeve and gave an order. "Starting from today, you are forbidden to go out. Without my permission, you are not allowed to go anywhere. Please reflect on your mistakes." After speaking, he pulled Laura away. Rose still wanted to chase, but Cadell held her back, she could only cry bitterly and beg for forgiveness. Finally, she was forced to return home. She was so angry that she went crazy. As soon as she returned, she started breaking things to vent her anger, the entire room was a mess. Mrs. Victoria was awakened by the violent noise and ran to her daughter's room. “Girl, what's wrong? Aren't you going to the party? Why are you so angry?” "Mom..." Rose burst into tears and rushed into Mrs. Victoria's arms, adding a lot to the story of tonight's party and told Mrs. Victoria. “Mom, you have to help me. Brother is not fair. Not only did he
Early the next morning.The ground floor lobby of Angle Company was crowded with people.The employees stood in rows, looking at each other, waiting for their president to arrive.Half an hour later, Venn and Bertha appeared at the entrance of the hall.Today Bertha especially chose a white suit and hip-hugging skirt, with her hair tied in a ponytail. She looks very generous, knowledgeable, and talented.Her appearance caused a stir among the junior staff.Because the image of two people walking in from the door is so beautiful.Venn walked to the center and solemnly announced. “This is the company's new sales director, Miss. Bertha, she will work with everyone in the future.”Everyone's applause rang out.Bertha smiled and nodded, replying politely.After that, Venn superficially arranged the upcoming targets and asked everyone to return to their working positions, asking the business person to stay.“Charmaine, Bertha just arrived, she is still not familiar with the job, please help
"You're still not sleeping?"Bertha saw her husband enter the room as she stepped out of the bathroom, he looked tired after so much fun they had had today. After having lunch with Venn and Mica, Shane took them to a nearby park and Clement enthusiastically agreed. They spent the rest of the afternoon there, both he and Bertha played hide and seek with her son and they had a small picnic there. Clement was so happy when his dad finally promised to give him a dog for his fifth birthday after Shane and Bertha saw how adorable their son was playing with the dog in the park. After having dinner at another restaurant where many women squealed over their adorable sons, they finally went home. Clement finally fell asleep five minutes before they got home, much to his parents' delight.Shane hummed, put the phone down on the bedside drawer, and hugged his wife, who was standing in front of her dressing table. She smelled like soap and vanilla as he buried his face in the crook of her neck,
Five years later.Shane woke up when he felt someone snuggling into his chest, arms wrapped protectively around his neck. He opened one of his eyes and chuckled at seeing his five-year-old son practically hugging him. He looked at the clock and sighed slightly when he realized it was still seven o'clock in the morning. The smell of freshly brewed coffee and stewed chicken entered his nose when he heard loud voices outside the room. That immediately brought a bright smile to his face, looking at the sleeping boy as he stroked his dark hair and chuckled when he heard his son grumble at him.“Clement, wake up.” He whispered into his ear and the boy only responded with a growl.Shane removed his hand from his neck. “Your mother is home.”Hearing that, the boy immediately opened his eyes and looked at him with big eyes that were inherited from his father. Shane held back his laughter as he looked at his sleeping son and smiled proudly because he could see how great the resemblance was bet
Bertha was stunned, she and Shane glanced at each other, and neither of them understood what Susanna meant."I've always been Shane's fiancee, I've never changed, what rumors have you heard?"Susanna's face was cold: "Not long ago at the royal banquet organized by the Princess of Country H, you were so dominant on stage that you certainly didn't pay attention to the audience below. At that time, I was also present at the party.”Bertha's expression stiffened.If Susanna was present at the party, she would surely have known about her wedding to Bruno, no wonder her attitude towards Bertha was not good."That happened for a reason..."She wanted to explain but Susanna looked at her coldly. She walked over and pulled Shane's arm: "Come alone with me, I have something to tell you." Shane was dragged away.Bertha looked at the backs of the two people chatting in the corner, her eyelashes drooped, a bit lonely.Liam noticed her feelings, and he immediately went to comfort her: "Miss Bertha
"But do you believe in love at first sight? From the moment you walked into my cell, from the first moment I saw you, I was fascinated, I liked you. So I always pretended stupid, thinking that by doing so, I could stay by your side forever.""Raise a cute little girl to be your friend, raise her until she's white, then you'll 'eat' me, so I can completely become your girl. Isn't that good?"Liam: "..."This time, everything was roasted from Liam's neck to his cheeks, and his heart beat fast: "Do you know what you're talking about?""Of course, I know. I'm almost twenty years old, I'm not the naive type, I understand the trivial things between men and women."“…”Very good. It turns out he was a naive person before. The person who was deceived was also you?Is he a fool?Liam seemed crazy, his whole body wasn't feeling very well."Liam, what do you think?"Aimee's tone was weak, her watery eyes looked at him expectantly, as if she would be heartbroken if rejected.Liam raised his eyebr
He sadly turned away, his handsome face contorted as if to say 'I feel sorry for me, please come comfort me'.Shane's serious and angry appearance is also very adorable. Bertha held back her laughter, she gently stood on tiptoe and kissed his thin lips, she used a gentle voice to comfort him."Be good, I remember your preferences very clearly. From now on, I only care about you, forget about everyone else, okay?" Shane's face turned hot: "It's what you said."Bertha quickly nodded, the two hugged each other tightly as they watched the plane carrying Bruno slowly take off into the sky.---Sitting in the car outside the airport, hearing the sound of the plane taking off, Liam pulled out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a drag.Cigarette smoke rose, and Lealia quietly observed his expression, she noticed that he was not in a good mood.“Liam, don't you want him to go?”Liam took a drag of his cigarette and said: “When he was in the dungeon in country H, he beat me one hund
Venn patted her shoulder: "Bertha, don't overthink. In short, this matter has been resolved well.""Yes." Bertha nodded.Leaving the court lobby, Bertha saw a man leaning against a luxury car. His familiar handsome figure made her anxious heart immediately look for a place to return.It's Shane.She immediately ran to him, her small hands slid into his open black jacket, and she felt his warm body around his waist.“When did you wake up? Is there discomfort elsewhere? Taking the opportunity that my second brother is still in S city, I will ask him to cure your illness."As soon as he met and heard her enthusiastic concern, Shane patted her head with satisfaction, he used his jacket to wrap around her fragile body and he hugged her tightly.“Maybe as soon as you arrived at the courthouse, I regained consciousness. Rest assured, your second brother's medical skills will not leave any disease on my body.”Bertha was a little less worried.Shane leaned close to her ear and said in a deep,
Shane understood clearly what Bruno wanted to ask, and he smiled slightly: "In the past half a year, because of you, I got sick, and almost died many times, but I also caused you the same pain and severity, I punished you almost to death. But since you gave me the antiviral medicine, my body has completely recovered, and our previous resentment seems to have passed.”Bruno was a bit taken aback.However, Shane said the same thing Bertha said earlier. He said the same thing Bertha did at the time.They are both ruthless bloodthirsty men, incompatible opponents, and mortal enemies. How could Shane let Bruno go so easily?Bruno propped himself up, he leaned against the headboard: "You know, I gave you the antiviral medicine because of Bertha. I didn't want to save you, I wished you would die.""I know."Shane's eyes were calm, and his expression was also calm: "This matter, you wanted to satisfy her, but she opened fire and shot you. Besides satisfying your death wish, she also wants to
Taking into account the eldest princess's stubborn personality for many years, when threatened by others, will she obediently compromise?But compared to this, she was even more worried about Mica.“Did Mica bring the photo here herself? Where is she?"Venn thought for a moment: "Just now she said she was going to the bathroom, she will return to the break room to join us in a moment."---On this side of the room, the eldest princess was angry, throwing things fiercely.Gaye Harold was afraid that she would damage his public property, so he quickly ordered someone to clean up the flower vases and teacups in the room and gave her soft pillows on the sofa.The princess took the pillow, struggled wildly, and tore the pillow into pieces, feathers flying all over the room.Gaye Harold helplessly supported his forehead.Okay, he had to pay for the pillow again, because he underestimated Lance Hilda's destructive power.Guy Haro stood to the side and cleared his throat. His voice was low an
Attorney Terry raised his hand to speak, then he looked at Bertha: "Miss Bertha, don't be afraid, what happened on the wedding day at the cathedral?"The Griselda House Lawyers Association seems to have planned very well. Just wait for Bertha to read everything on the paper they gave her, and then they'll give the judge Liam's injury assessment along with a bunch of evidence.At this moment, all eyes were on Bertha. Bertha bowed her head as if thinking about something."Miss Bertha. You can talk now.”Lawyer Terry called her and quickly pulled back her thoughts. His eyes contained a reminder: "Don't be afraid, rest assured, the judge is always fair and just, he will be your boss."Bertha looked at him, of course, she understood the meaning in his eyes.He's saying, put all the responsibility on Bruno, let Bruno shoulder it all, let him be named...After all, Bruno is dead, this is only for the living to see, and waiting for this to end will not have any effect on people's lives.But…
