"May I ask if what Laura said is true? She confirmed that she was not the third person. Then, what is the reason why you divorced Derek? I heard you're a runaway, are you having an affair?"
"Also, does Laura's injury have anything to do with you?"
These reporters did not want to miss this great opportunity to get hot information, so they continuously threw a series of questions at Bertha.
Bertha walked quickly like the wind towards the company door, she was not afraid at all of this crowded scene.
Large sunglasses covered most of her face, but they couldn't block her aura.
"Miss. Bertha, can you answer a bit? The national media and the masses are waiting for your answer." A reporter shouted.
The crowd was excited again, many people were chatting and speculating about the story behind this series of events.
Bertha frowned, grabbed a reporter's microphone, and spoke in an undeniable tone. "If you want to listen, please shut up and listen to me."
The reporters were stunned for two seconds and immediately began a series of questions.
'May I ask, what is the relationship between you and Derek?" A reporter took advantage of her position and pushed the microphone beside her, fearing her question would not be answered.
"I said it on social networks, I repeat it, we are divorced, we have nothing to do with each other anymore." Bertha was unhappy and pushed the microphone away.
Bertha's sunglasses covered nearly half of her face, but the others still felt her sharp eyes and consciously retreated.
"On the internet, information spread that Laura was the third person, ruining your marriage with Derek, but after the divorce, you were forced to leave the house. Is this true?"
"Sorry, I can't answer."
Bertha shrugged. "Are there any other questions? If not, I'll leave. Don't waste my precious time."
"Wait." A few reporters crowded forward again. 'On the internet, it is said that thanks to Mr. Venn you just got this position, is that true?"
"My work is not exchanged for improper transactions. As for my ability to work, time and achievements will reveal all."
Bertha's words were powerful, echoing continuously in the crowd, but that still did not restrain their excitement.
"So two days ago, for what purpose did you insult Laura? Was it because Laura embarrassed you at the party?"
'Did you guys watch her live interview?" Bertha asked back: 'Who is playing tricks, let the evidence explain everything. I still have important things to do, I can't answer everyone."
Seeing that she had ordered the guests to be evicted, the reporters were worried and quickly detained her.
"You haven't said anything yet, it can't end like this. Or is there a devil in your heart?"
The crowd screamed and blocked the company's door, and some even wanted to attack her during the chaos.
Before Bertha could speak, a familiar low, strong male voice rang out behind her.
'Rumors don't need to cost money so you can arbitrarily hurt others? No professional ethics, quit your job as soon as possible."
Derek calmly walked forward, and frowned slightly, his disgusted, indifferent eyes sweeping over the crowd.
"It's Derek. Derek came to have her back."
Someone recognized him and shouted.
Derek's appearance made the crowd excited again, everyone was shocked by his sudden appearance, and they discussed the purpose of his coming here.
"About Laura's matter, I'm also investigating."
He took the microphone from Bertha and spoke briefly. "After five days, I will explain to the public."
The reporters who asked questions were scared by him and did not dare to speak up, but they still could not calm down.
"What are you still standing there for?"
Derek turned his head and spoke coldly to Cadell.
Cadell understood clearly, raised his hand to signal, and several bodyguards wearing sunglasses and black clothes immediately chased the crowd away.
Most people just wanted to come to the scene to watch, didn't want to cause trouble, and were afraid of angering Derek, so within a few moments, they immediately left.
"Thank."
Bertha calmly thanked him, lifted her feet, and walked towards the company.
Derek unconsciously reached out to stop her but was pierced by her cold eyes, so he withdrew his hand.
"Mr. Derek, don't forget that you are Laura's fiancé, please take care of your fiancée who is lying in the hospital bed, her wound has not healed yet."
Bertha sneered at him and then walked inside the company lobby.
The moment she left, she saw a flash of loss in his eyes.
Even though it wasn't obvious, just a glimpse, she still caught it.
What could he lose?
Bertha had doubts in her heart, but she didn't care.
To her, Derek is just an unimportant person who cannot affect her life.
She regained her thoughts and tied her hair elegantly. Derek didn't stop her, she gently opened the door to the entrance.
As she passed by Cadell, she caught an unfriendly look from him.
Cadell looked at her with hateful eyes like an enemy.
"Boss, we have collected all the evidence, the truth about her sending people to bully Laura will soon be clear. You won't be gentle with her, right?"
Hearing this sentence, Bertha stopped and turned her head to glance at him, the corner of her mouth curled up in a provocative smile. "Then just announce it, I'll wait."
Her petite figure gave off an aura of arrogance.
Cadell looked straight into her teasing eyes and suddenly took a few steps back.
Bertha stood on her high heels and quickly left.
The whole space was silent, only the sound of her footsteps echoed.
"It's so strange."
Cadell was puzzled by her indifference.
---
Two days had passed since the five-day deadline Derek had approved.
Many media are very interested in this matter, and they constantly publish various related speculations.
Bertha completely ignored the negative comments about her, focused on preparing for the girl group audition, and ignored the articles that intentionally smeared her.
'Director, this is a document related to filming, please review it one last time." Anne placed a file bag next to her.
"I know, you go out first, I'll call you after reading it."
Bertha's eyes never left the computer screen, and her fingers flexed on the keyboard.
