That's hurt.
Laura knelt on the ground, vomiting blood, and yet she still tried to explain. "It's not me. It's not me. I called you all here, how can you treat me..."
Before Laura could finish her sentence, a man grabbed her hair. He used such force that her scalp felt like it was being torn off. It was so painful that she cried. She could only scream miserably.
"Really... it's not... I..."
The man slapped her face again and laughed. "I've seen someone begging for forgiveness before, but I've never seen anyone as fake as you. Tonight we'll show you what the pinnacle of torture is."
The door at the entrance was closed but not locked, and more than ten men surrounded her.
Immediately after that, the small room echoed with extremely brutal beatings, including Laura's pitiful screams, extremely painful and horrifying.
Bertha sat leaning under a tree quite a distance from the abandoned room, Faye was quiet, standing to the side, saying nothing.
She raised her head to look at the starry sky.
The stars are so bright tonight.
Unfortunately, the screams that rang out in my ears ruined the beautiful scene.
Having had enough of watching such a good show, Bertha prepared to go home, leaving Laura to enjoy the torture dinner she prepared herself.
"Boss, that's right there."
Suddenly on the small road, there was a familiar sound, followed by the sound of footsteps running quickly towards the abandoned house.
Hearing the noise getting closer and closer, Bertha quickly hid.
She hid behind a big tree to observe the movement in front of the small house. She saw the person rushing towards her, it was Derek.
The woman's pitiful screams coming from the room gradually subsided, then the man's happy laughter also rang out at the same time.
"Bertha."
Derek was angry, his eyes turned red, his whole body exuded a deadly danger, and he kicked the door aggressively.
The men inside the room were preparing to take action but Derek ruined their good thing.
The two sides quickly rushed into battle.
Normally, these men are all cruel killers. Derek and Cadell's faces were inevitably injured, but they couldn't stop Derek's strong desire to kill people. He was even crueler than them.
In less than ten minutes, the group of tall and muscular people was defeated, lying on the ground groaning, no longer having the strength to fight back.
The room was still very dark and there was the sound of a woman coughing.
"Bertha?"
Derek followed the sound to where the woman was breathing weakly on the ground, then he carried her out of the room.
During the fight, Cadell was unlucky and injured, now he limps out of the room with Derek.
Derek carefully placed the woman in his arms on the open ground outside the room, then he checked the condition of her injuries.
The woman was beaten so much that her face was bruised, her nose was swollen, and it seemed she could no longer recognize who she was.
Her clothes were torn, her whole body was covered in blood, extremely miserable. Luckily, Derek and Cadell arrived at the right time, otherwise, if she had been tortured by those ten men one after another, The consequences would have been hard to imagine.
Derek saw that her whole body was injured, he was so angry that his eyes turned red, his heart felt like it was torn apart, and it hurt so much that he couldn't breathe.
"Bertha. Please wake up, you can't sleep."
The woman had completely lost consciousness but was still breathing weakly, which was not life-threatening.
Cadell glanced at the tragic woman lying on the ground, couldn't help but feel a little impatient, then he asked weakly. "Boss, how should we handle the people inside the room now?"
Suddenly Derek's eyes turned cruel, and without any hesitation, he uttered a word. "Kill."
Cadell immediately listened to his boss, he ran aside and called his subordinates to come and deal with them.
Derek took off his vest and covered Laura's fragile body. His eyes were inevitably filled with complex emotions.
At the same time, in a place not far away, Bertha was hiding behind a big tree, observing everything from the best position.
She stared at Derek, who was losing his temper, many times she thought she was mistaken.
If in return she was the one lying on the ground, would Derek be that upset?
Does he still have feelings for her?
She couldn't express the feeling in her heart when she saw that scene, it was very strange.
But she immediately rejected her previous thoughts.
Does Derek still love her or not? Could it be that she still hasn't seen these past three years?
If he knew that the person lying on the ground was Laura, her ex-girlfriend, would he be in such pain?
Thinking of this, Bertha's eyes returned to their original coldness, and she quietly left.
In front of the small room, the unconscious woman gradually woke up. After seeing clearly who the person in front of her was, she immediately burst into tears.
"Derek, I thought I wouldn't see you again."
The corners of her mouth were bruised and she couldn't speak clearly.
This voice was not Bertha's.
Derek looked back at the woman on the ground again, Cadell right next to him immediately screamed. "Boss, that's not Bertha, she's Laura."
Knowing that the other woman was Laura, Cadell was even more excited than before. "Miss. Laura, why are you here? Who hurt you?"
Laura sobbed, her blood-stained hands clung tightly to Derek's sleeve and wouldn't let go. "It's Bertha, she called me and told me to come here. Derek, I'm in so much pain."
The more she spoke, the more agitated she became, and in the end she weakly passed out again.
Knowing that the injured person was Laura, not Bertha, the pain in Derek's heart also eased somewhat, even though he did not know.
But Cadell next to him was a little agitated. "Damn it. She dared to hurt Laura, it's so damned."
Cadell was angry, gritted his teeth, turned his head to look at Derek, and said. "Boss, did you receive a text message from Miss. Bertha just now? You thought she was in danger so you rushed here. As a result, the injured person was Laura. This has something to do with Bertha, maybe she is the mastermind."
Derek frowned, his eyes extremely calm. "First we have to take Laura to the hospital. I will investigate this matter later."
"Yes."
Cadell picked Laura up from Derek's lap, then he quickly ran to the car parked on the side of the road.
Waiting for Cadell to leave, Derek slowly stood up, looked towards the room that was still moaning, and remembered that half an hour ago, he had received a text message from Bertha.
The following content. "Tonight I invited ten men to come hang out together, do you want to come and join in the fun?"
He received that text message from her and was extremely angry. He immediately called her back but only received a locked signal. Then he told Cadell to investigate the location and the two of them rushed. Here comes the gold.
Unexpectedly, the person who was beaten was Laura. She was even almost raped.
Bertha.
Is this her fault?
Derek's pupils darkened, and he suddenly felt disgusted.
