Furthermore, that person seemed to know her very well, not revealing many loopholes so that the Black Dragon gang had a chance to find clues.
After thinking, she determined the real culprit behind arranging the kidnapping.
Bertha turned off the navigation to the mountain to the west and turned the wheel back to Venn's villa.
She changed out of her professional attire and instead wore a pair of sports clothes.
The black tracksuit further highlights her white skin.
She tied her long hair into a ponytail, accentuating her bold appearance.
'You just returned, why keep going?"
Aunt Jinna heard her footsteps coming down from upstairs and advised her. "Miss, you've been working non-stop at the company these past few days. How can you stand it? Once you're back, rest quickly; your health is important."
As soon as she turned around, she saw Bertha in her tracksuit, her mouth opened wide in surprise.
"You look so cold like this! Unusually beautiful."
Aunt Jinna praised. "Are you going to the gym?"
"Fight."
Bertha waved her hand.
"Huh? Fight?"
Aunt Jinna was extremely scared, she thought she had heard wrong, and asked. "You're going to fight? Is that okay?"
She looked at Bertha's thin body, her eyes worried.
"Don't worry about me."
Bertha picked up her bag and strode out, she drove her Magotan like an arrow, going straight to the mountain west of city X according to the instructions.
Aunt Jinna looked at Bertha's left back, and she was touched by Bertha's resilience, suddenly she regained her senses and called Venn because she was afraid her young lady would suffer.
'Young master, Bertha said she was about to fight, please put aside your work. What if something happens to her?"
"Okay, I know."
Venn frowned and sighed helplessly.

"What's the plan? Have you caught that woman yet?"
Laura answered the phone and asked hurriedly.
Karlina replied lazily. "Of course, once I have arranged it, there will be no mistakes."
Laura received a certain answer. Her heart became a little happier. She looked at the bird constantly gawping outside the window, feeling very satisfied.
"Have you texted that bitch yet? There's nothing wrong, right?"
While feeling satisfied, she did not forget the rigor of the plan. "What if she calls the police? Or she tells Venn, Venn is not easy to deal with."
"Don't worry, I've investigated. She and the woman named Mica are close friends. She won't dare tell anyone."
Karlina doesn't care.
"I asked someone to inform her. If she dares to bring someone along, I will kill the hostage. Maybe she won't be so bold."
Suddenly there were footsteps outside the hospital room. Laura thought it was a nurse or doctor walking in the hallway, so she didn't pay attention at all.
"If this plan succeeds, she will say goodbye to the world completely."
Laura was so excited that she thought that Bertha would never appear before her again.
Karlina was also very satisfied, after dealing with Bertha who was always hovering in front of Venn, no one could become an obstacle on her path to pursuing love.
"This time I was very lucky thanks to you, waiting after I left the hospital..."
Laura was talking excitedly, and the door was pushed open.
Derek stood at the door, his expression gloomy.
"Derek, why are you here?"
Laura panicked for a moment and immediately hung up the phone.
"You were talking on the phone, so you didn't notice me coming."
She had clearly arranged a bodyguard to guard the door, so she relaxed her guard and spoke loudly to Karlina without any hesitation.
She wondered if Derek heard.
Derek said nothing, his face pale as he looked at her.
"Derek, you listen to me." Laura frantically explained. "Don't think too much, I'm just talking about normal things."
There was sweat on her forehead because she didn't know how many conversations he had heard between her and Karlina, so she resolutely pretended to know nothing.
"What are you two going to do?"
Derek didn't listen to her explanation, his eyes showed anger.
His cold eyes and tone, could it be that he had heard everything?
Laura's right hand unconsciously grasped the corner of the blanket.
'Nothing, I was just talking to my friend, don't you believe me?"
Derek completely ignored her calm and lovely eyes, his sharp gaze like a knife seemed to want to pierce her. "You should know that, even if you don't say it, I can still send someone to investigate, but by then, you won't have a chance to explain."
He gently stroked his watch, there was no expression on his face but that made Laura even more frightened.
She bit her lip, knowing that this plot would get him to interrogate her. Her eye sockets instantly became wet and she began to sob.
"Derek. I'm just not satisfied. Bertha and you are divorced but you still care about her. I can't even live in that villa on the beach but you transferred it to her."
"At the last party at Greer's house, she insulted me. This time she even hired someone to beat me. I was almost raped."
"Derek. I hate her, I hate her. I just want to teach her a bit, what did I do wrong?"
She threw herself into Derek's arms, she wanted to look pathetic, pretend to be pitiful so he would ignore her, but she was pushed away by him.
"I ask one last time, where is Bertha?"
He frowned, his voice filled with determination that did not allow resistance.
"Derek, is the relationship between you and I not as good as the woman who no longer has any relationship with you?"
Laura sobbed. "I'm your fiancée. Why are you so cruel? She hurt me. Now I have to stay in the hospital and suffer. Are you cruel enough to watch me suffer like this?"
Derek's face was still cold, he stood up, a bit tired in his eyes but not easily detected by others.
"I remember that you weren't that kind of person before. You made me so disappointed."
He quickly walked out of the hospital room, leaving Laura sitting on the bed with a tearful face.
The hallway was extremely quiet, occasionally a few nurses passed by, but their steps were light and they passed quickly.
