Her eyes were probing, there was hidden meaning in her words.
Bertha had no expression.
'We are just normal friends."
Mrs. Darla seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, she smiled happily and warmly gave the fruit to Bertha. 'Very well then, Miss. Bertha is truly lucky to have friends like Venn and Dante."
Bertha just nodded and said nothing.
In the hospital room, the lights were dim.
Olwen lay silently on the bed as if she had never woken up.
But unlike the previous vegetable, her face was much rosier than last time, and her breathing was also stable.
Just looking at her, Dante immediately frowned, his face gloomy.
'You are not sick."
Having been exposed, Olwen was very embarrassed.
Seeing that he wanted to leave, she quickly opened her eyes, sat up, and pulled his sleeve.
"Don't go."
Dante didn't turn around, nor did he move forward. Olwen couldn't see his face, but she could feel the gloom and coldness on his body, cold as ice.
He's angry...
Olwen was worried, her eyes were red, and she had no chance of seeing him again.
'Dante, I know Greer's house and Griselda's house are not in the same class, and my family and yours are not compatible, but I know, if I don't say it, I won't have a chance."
She stopped, took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and then looked up at his back, her eyes were very determined.
"I like you."
'I like you, like you a lot, I know we haven't known each other for long, you don't know me very well, but can you stay, try talking to me more, I… "
"Cannot."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Dante's cold voice.
"Because I do not like you."
It was as if a string had just been broken in her heart.
Olwen looked at his tall figure in shock, looking at him so repulsed that he didn't even want to turn his head to look at her, she couldn't describe what it was like.
She knows she faked her illness to deceive him, but if she didn't, she would never have the chance to fight for herself once.
The corners of her eyes were red, but she still bit her lip, trying not to let tears fall.
'Is it because… Bertha? Do you like her?"
Because she clutched the bed sheet tightly, her knuckles turned white.
It was clear that she was afraid of him admitting it, but there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart.
But this time Dante didn't say anything, he coldly pushed her hand away, he didn't turn around, pushed the door and went out.
Mrs. Darla and Bertha were sitting outside talking on the sofa when they saw Dante come out with a scary look on his face.
Mrs. Darla asked first. 'Second young master…."
"What's up?"
Dante didn't look at her and went straight to Bertha. 'You know she's pretending to be sick."
Is he angry?
This was the first time Bertha had seen her second brother make such an expression towards her.
She blinked. "I..."
Dante didn't give her a chance to explain, he went straight downstairs.
Bertha was about to chase him when Mrs. Darla pulled her hand and went to see Olwen's situation in the hospital room.
The corners of Olwen's eyes were red as if she had just cried, and her emotions were not good.
Mrs. Darla ran to her with a sad look on her face. 'Good girl, I advised you, Dante is too cold, he won't like you, you keep trying, this time you got hurt, right?"
Olwen bit her lip and said nothing.
Mrs. Darla knew she was always very stubborn, what she had decided would not change, she looked at Bertha.
'Bertha, can you help Olwen? You can call Dante to city X, surely you also have a way for him to stay in city X."
Bertha shook her head, her expression very serious. "It doesn't work. He is a very principled person. If he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it. Anyone who advises him will be of no use."
Bertha knew saying that would hurt Olwen, but Bertha had no other choice.
Olwen can only rely on herself and think clearly.
Mrs. Darla sighed in disappointment.
Bertha saw such a heartbreaking scene, but she couldn't help herself, so she planned to leave.
'Bertha."
Olwen called out to her, asking uncertainly. 'Will you be my love rival?"
Mrs. Darla shivered in fear, Laura's end was still in front of her eyes, and she didn't dare to move...
Bertha stood there dumbfounded for a few seconds.
She didn't explain or turn around, just walked straight out of their house.
Going out of Greer's house, Venn's car stopped on the side of the road, waiting for her.
She walked over, opened the car door, and sat in the back.
Venn saw her expression was very serious, so he gently stroked her head.
"What's wrong? Did someone make my little princess angry?"
Bertha is very sad. 'I'm sorry for my second brother."
Venn laughed. 'Stupid girl, in this matter, you are not wrong, these past few years, he has only focused on medical research, not interacting with any women, father scolded him countless times, it seems He still listens to you the most."
'But he's angry…"
Venn shook his head. 'You don't understand him, he looks cold, but he's shy, anyway, don't worry about this anymore, if he and Olwen were truly destined, they would eventually be together."
Bertha finally felt relieved.
Venn seemed to think of something suddenly, his expression gradually became serious.
'Kid, I've been seriously thinking about this, but I feel like I should still tell you."
Bertha looked at his serious expression, she was also serious.
'It's something related to… your ex-husband."
Derek?
