Chapter 19
She kept screaming, the sound was deafening.
Bertha originally thought that she could watch a good play, but she did not expect that Laura would only call her name from beginning to end. With this attitude of hers, Bertha was afraid that soon the entire family would Customers would find out that she and Derek were together in the women's bathroom.
She was thinking, raising her head to see Derek's calm face as if this had nothing to do with him.
Why can he be so calm?
And she was stressed because of Laura's words?
As if they thought of something, Bertha glared at him, she curled her lips and smiled coldly. “It seems like I'm not the one who should be nervous. I want to see, how will you explain to your fiancee in a moment?”
After speaking, she forcefully pushed Derek's hand away. Derek didn't stop her, she immediately went straight to open the door.
Outside the door, Laura was angry and still screaming.
“If you don't open the door, I will tell someone to come and break the door down. I must expose your shameless behavior, your seduction of my fiance in front of everyone.”
Just as her words ended, the sound of the door unlocking suddenly came from inside.
The door opened with a crack like a hand, and Bertha stared at her with a beautiful smile.
“Indeed you are.”
Laura was angry, her tone was almost through gritted teeth. “Why don't you open the door? Who was talking to you inside? Is that Derek?”
The anger in Laura's eyes became even stronger, but she didn't seem to have the courage to go to open the door to prove she was right.
“Please go inside to check for yourself.”
Bertha shrugged in disagreement, suddenly the door opened completely, and she pointed to where Derek stood. “That person is there.”
Laura was very tense inside.
She looked intently in the direction Bertha had directed but discovered that beyond the wall there was nothing.
“Are you kidding me?”
She glared at Bertha angrily, her eyes filled with malice.
Bertha was also stunned.
It was clear that Derek was still standing here just now. Could it be that he still has any special abilities?
Laura was observing her face. She felt that something seemed unreasonable. She angrily pushed Bertha away and went inside, looking around once.
Bertha was standing behind Laura, she also looked to see where Derek was hiding.
After checking all the partitions in turn, the two girls' eyes stopped at the last partition that had not yet completely closed.
Laura gasped and pushed the door open hard.
But still nothing.
But Bertha looked at the open window on the right side of the partition, and she understood clearly in her heart.
As the head of the Tibble Group, one day Derek was forced to climb out the window and run away in panic, which made her unable to help but laugh.
Laura saw Bertha's smiling face, her face was stunned and she became suspicious.
“If it's just you in the bathroom, then why did the phone ring just now?”
Bertha waved her hand, but she did not answer.
Meaning, let Laura guess for herself.
Laura looked at her angrily, gritted her teeth, and threatened. “Bertha, you and Derek no longer have any relationship. I warn you to stay away from him. If I knew you still wanted to seduce him, I wouldn't let you go."
Bertha laughed, she replied, showing no signs of weakness. “The things I have thrown away will never be returned, but if you anger me, I will not hesitate to take away all your things, including him.”
"You..."
Laura was frightened by the coldness in Bertha's eyes. She couldn't think of any words to refute Bertha for a moment.
Before she left, she even turned her head to look at Laura and said sarcastically. “Manage your man well, don't let him come to anger me anymore because you and he both make me nauseous.”
“Bitch.”
Laura was extremely angry, but there was no way to deal with Bertha. She only hated why those people didn't go well last night.
She stomped her feet in hatred, and after washing her hands, she walked out of the bathroom.
“Laura.”
Just two steps in, Laura heard a familiar voice behind her.
Laura turned her head and saw Derek walking out of the men's restroom with a calm and leisurely expression. She was immediately relieved and reassured.
Maybe she was too stressed at that time, the bell could have come from the men's restroom.
“Derek, did you hear everything I said in the bathroom hallway?”
Derek nodded. “Um.”
Laura immediately blushed, she didn't want to leave a bad impression in Derek's heart with her screaming appearance like just now.
“Sorry, it's my fault, just now I thought that the person in the women's restroom was a friend, so I couldn't control my mood, from now on I absolutely will not doubt you again, nor I won't shout anymore."
Derek didn't say anything, he just looked at her.
When he saw a faint blue-black light in her eyes, he suddenly remembered that last night she came to look for him, he didn't see her, she stood at the door of the villa nearly midnight, and talked about what happened many years ago.
Although he felt threatened, because of the man's promise, he agreed to her engagement request.
But.
He didn't know when Laura made him feel even more strange. Sometimes he even doubted whether he still loved Laura or not.
“Laura, you seem to have changed a lot.”
When he said these words, there was no expression on his face. After he finished speaking, he passed Laura and returned to the restaurant.
But Laura seemed to be struck by lightning, she was stunned on the spot.
Derek, why is he looking at her like that?
That wasn't the look he used to give her.
As soon as Bertha returned to the table, Kirjani was about to go look for her. Seeing that she had finally returned, he breathed a sigh of relief.
What do you think?
