1089words
Noa left the room, Karlina was still so surprised that she was stunned, it took a long time for her to react.
Things that she couldn't understand before now have answers.
Why did Bertha eat with Venn in his office, why did Venn protect Bertha, and why did Bertha sit in the position of director as soon as he arrived at Angle Group?
So, she almost hurt her sister-in-law.
Suddenly, Karlina regained consciousness, she felt lucky that Bertha escaped death this time, otherwise she and Venn would no longer be able to be together.
She sat up with difficulty, thinking about how to save everything she had caused.
After thinking for a while, she took out her phone and called Venn.
The phone keeps ringing, the user is busy, and the waiting time becomes long.
"What is up?"
Venn's impatient tone rang out. "If there's nothing, I'll hang up."
"Wait. Don't hang up. Venn, I need to find you." Karlina held the phone tightly in her hand, she was afraid Venn would immediately hang up.
'If you want to ask me to tell your father to let you out, then, there is no need to discuss anymore, as for marriage, I am still thinking."
"No, I want to find Bertha, I don't have a way to contact her. Can you ask her to answer the phone?" Speaking of the last sentence, Karlina's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Are you looking for her? I advise you not to think about calling Bertha, I won't give you a chance to harm her anymore." Venn warned.
"No, I want to apologize to her." Karlina bit her lip. 'Please, you give her the phone, Venn, I beg you."
"Sorry?"
Venn couldn't help but be surprised, but he thought that now that Karlina was in S city, and still being detained, she probably wouldn't do anything bad, so he reluctantly agreed to her proposal.
He gently knocked on the door of the operating room, then he opened the door a crack and looked inside, waving at Bertha.
Bertha saw that Dante was still concentrating on the surgery, so she quietly went out.
"What's up?"
Venn gave her his phone. "Karlina is looking for you."
"Looking for me?"
Bertha was suspicious, holding the phone, she glanced at the screen and said. "What? You still want to call and annoy me?"
"No, I came looking for you to apologize to you."
Karlina's tone was no longer as arrogant and defiant as before, but she was used to living in luxury, and she certainly wasn't completely willing to bow her head.
"What happened before was my fault. I'm sorry. As long as you don't stop me and Venn from being together in the future, I agree to live in harmony with you."
Bertha said nothing.
It seems like this time Karlina regrets it.
Karlina saw silence on the other end of the line. She felt a bit empty in her heart and continued. 'To show my good intentions, about Olwen, I will give you a gift."
"Give me a gift?"
Bertha laughed. 'Okay, then I will wait for your gift."
Seeing Bertha hang up the phone first, Karlina was not angry at all, she made another phone call.
Immediately, Laura was at the hospital and received the call.
"How's it going? Have you found Olwen?"
"There's no need to look anymore, because, she's dead," Karlina replied coldly.
"Really?" Laura's tone was joyful. "Are you sure? She's at Venn's mansion, right? Did you send someone to kill her? She..."
Karlina interrupted Laura's question. "Okay, you don't need to know that much, just know that she's dead. I'm calling to inform you that the contract between us has ended."
Laura completely did not expect Karlina to decide so quickly. She was so surprised that her eyes widened.
"Why? Is it because Bertha and Olwen are dead?"
"That's right, it's because of this that Venn wants to break off the engagement with me, my parents both know." Karlina raised her voice. "Even if I can't protect myself right now, I don't have time to discuss cooperation with you. Anyway, the other two women are dead, the path to becoming the heir to the corporation is Your Greer has no one to hinder him anymore."
"But..."
"No buts, so be it." Karlina couldn't be patient any longer, she hung up the phone directly.
Laura still wanted to say more, but Karlina disconnected.
She looked at the call history on the phone screen in surprise, and in her heart was joy mixed with some doubt.
Even though she had dealt with the two women she hated the most, of course, this made her very happy, but Karlina's reaction today was a bit strange, making her suspicious.
Laura felt that Karlina was much stranger than usual tonight, but she also didn't know where the strange thing was.
Forget it, if you can't think about it, don't think about these things for now. Laura threw the phone aside and lay down on the bed.
She tried to suppress the feeling of doubt in her mind, but what Karlina said just now kept echoing in her brain.
The more Laura thought, the more upset she became. She decided to sit up and look up at the ceiling.
There's something wrong with tonight's Karlina, making her unable to help but suspect the partner she once worked with.
Originally, their cooperation was for the common good. Only insiders know how much trust there is between them.
"Wow, it looks like you recovered quite quickly."
Mrs. Darla and the maid came in and saw Laura sitting on the bed. She immediately grimaced in discomfort. "Let's eat."
Until now, Laura still couldn't eat rice at the hospital.
Even if it was a meal for a VIP room, she would eat a little bit and then throw it in the trash, so she always asked Greer's house to cook the rice and bring it to her.
That's why, Mrs. Darla always seemed sarcastic and mocked her.
Laura received the lunch box from the maid, she just saw Mrs. Darla and immediately thought that Olwen was dead, she felt extremely comfortable in her heart.
"Yes, I recovered very quickly. For Greer's house, this is a good thing. After all, I am the heir to Greer's house. If something unfortunate happens to me, what will Greer's house do?"
