Chapter 130
1011words
Derek was awakened by the sound of birds singing.
He endured the pain in his back, gritted his teeth, and reluctantly stood up.
He still has work to do in the evening, so he has to stay awake.
He returned from the railing to his room on the second floor, went into the bathroom, and turned on the shower on the hot water side.
Because the shirt on his back was stained with blood, he was in a coma for six hours. He didn't have time to change clothes, so the blood from the wound got on his shirt.
If he tried to change his clothes, he could peel off a layer of skin, so he could only use hot water to remove his shirt quickly.
When the hot water touched the wound on his back, it was like he was being tortured a second time, like there were hundreds of needles on his back.
Derek was in so much pain that he was shaking.
He clenched his teeth. Even though his body ached, his mind became more and more alert.
A few minutes later, he changed into a clean shirt, turned off the lights, and took advantage of the position where the bodyguards were hiding and couldn't see him, he pretended to lie on the bed and then quietly stuffed the mattress on the bed, pretending he was sleeping.
Then he quietly rolled down to the foot of the bed, his back accidentally touching the ground, he was in pain, his whole body trembled, and his mind was dizzy.
About two minutes later, he stood up and walked out of the room in silence. He walked to the bodyguard's blind spot on the other side of the room, followed the pipe on the other side of the window, and went down to the first floor.
This location is the back door.
But this man endured it tenaciously, without making a sound.
Derek heard a small noise, a voice rang out outside the iron door.
'When I visited Laura at home, I found out that Bertha flew to S city to find a doctor to treat Olwen. I gathered everyone for screening and investigation, and finally, I discovered that the doctor she was looking for was... Dante."
Dante?
Derek was dazed.
Dante is a very influential person in the medical world, his status is solid, but Derek heard that he has an arrogant, cold, and quiet personality. Derek had never seen a woman around him.
Why was Bertha able to get him to operate on Olwen?
The three boys of Griselda's house all have a good relationship with Bertha. They also helped her many times.
Arnold's house is a distant relative of Griselda's house, so they are arrogant in X city.
The relationship between her and Griselda's house is not simple.
Wait. Derek heard that Griselda's house also has a youngest daughter who lives secretly, no one knows about her.
Could it be that Bertha is the youngest daughter of Griselda's house?
Derek's expression grew colder and colder. 'Investigate Griselda's house then report back to me."
Before Liam could say anything, suddenly the car lights turned on.
Bertha has returned.
Why did she suddenly return at this time?
'Boss, please take care. I will investigate clearly."
Liam looked at Derek worriedly and then quickly disappeared into the night.
Derek immediately turned around, he wanted to go from the flower garden to the main door of the other room, but Bertha had already gotten out of the car, and the flower garden had lights on, he was exposed.
There was no other way, Derek reluctantly looked at the water pipe on the wall he had just climbed down, this was the only way.
He ignored the pain in his back and immediately climbed up the pipe.
Bertha was walking into the living room from the flower garden, asking bodyguard Casey as she went. 'How has he been these past few days?"
Casey answered honestly. 'Sir Derek wanted to go out twice, but after we refused, he didn't want to go out anymore. He's gone to sleep now."
Bertha frowned.
She looked at the time, it was only nine-thirty, why did he sleep so early?
'I don't believe he's that obedient."
Bertha said as she walked upstairs, Casey and Emilio following behind her.
The door to Derek's room wasn't closed. Bertha felt a bit strange, but she didn't think too much about it.
She pushed the door open, leaning against the light in the hallway, she looked at Derek with his back to the door, he was lying on the bed like he was sleeping.
Is she thinking too much?
Bertha closed the door, and Casey and Emilio saw that she hadn't discovered anything, and they quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Bertha had just taken two steps out when she suddenly stopped.
When she opened the door, she seemed to see that Derek's shirt was a bit dark...
His shirt is wet?
Is he sweating?
Problem.
Bertha immediately turned around, this time she did not hesitate at all, turned on the light, saw the man curled up with his body, his back was towards the door.
She walked to the bed, she determined that his back was indeed wet, the corner of her mouth curled up mockingly.
'Derek, are you so tired that you're sweating?"
The man on the bed closed his eyes and did not answer her.
Bertha was a little angry. 'Stop pretending, I know you haven't slept yet. Why are you sweating so much? What did you end up doing?"
Derek still didn't speak, suddenly he furrowed his eyebrows.
He spoke hoarsely. "That's hurt…"
"Hurt? Are you acting again?"
As Bertha spoke, her hand accidentally pushed his back.
"Hurt…"
The man groaned, suddenly he was sweating, his expression painful.
Casey and Emilio were standing behind Bertha, speechless.
During the day, when the two of them were outside, they heard the sound of rattan whips hitting their skin many times, and they were scared.
