The maid was so frightened by her sudden anger that her hands shook, the coffee accidentally spilled on the floor, and the bowl shattered.
'Sorry miss. It wasn't my intention."
Zillah looked at her coldly, which made her bad mood even worse.
'I can't even carry coffee, what's the point in needing you to come here to work? Go away, you should forever disappear before me."
The maid was so scared that her face turned white, she cried and asked for forgiveness. 'Boss, I was wrong, don't fire me, I need this job. I am begging you."
"Get out."
There was a disturbing roar from the butler outside. He hurried in and pulled the crying maid out.
The room was finally peaceful, Zillah took out her phone to call someone.
Tibble Corporation recovered so quickly, and Bertha started so quickly. During this time, all of Helga Corporation's current businesses were suppressed, and her project was also taken over by the corporation. Tibble Corporation or Novaland real estate robbed.
That makes Helga Corporation's revenue very poor.
Zillah was extremely angry, she spent a lot of money to send someone to investigate Bertha's background, but so far there has been no response.
While thinking, her phone was connected to the other end.
'General manager, we checked three times, she doesn't have any relatives. She's just an orphan."
Zillah didn't believe it. "Orphans? Why is she Salome's master, what the hell are you guys doing?"
'I'm sorry, general manager, we tried our best, this is the result of her investigation."
Zillah was so angry that she hung up, she picked up the glass on the table and threw it at the wall.
What exactly is this bitch's background?
She sent so many people to investigate, but they still couldn't investigate Bertha's identity."
She sat down in her chair, angry, and had nowhere to vent her anger.
Not being able to investigate Bertha's identity meant she would never know this bitch's trump card, so she had no way to continue fighting Bertha.
But she cannot stand by and watch Bertha sabotage Helga Corporation.
Zillah was thinking, her butler suddenly knocked on the door and entered.
'Miss, there is someone outside looking for a friend. He said he is a member of Griselda's house in S city."
She held her forehead, so angry that her head was dizzy. 'I don't know Griselda's house. I do not meet."
"Yes."
The butler bowed, he was about to leave.
"Wait."
Zillah said, stopping him from going out.
Why did someone come looking for her at Griselda's house?
She thought and decided to meet that person. 'It's too messy here. I can't scare a distinguished guest. You take that person to the mysterious little living room and wait for me."
After finishing her instructions, she returned to her room to change into elegant, elegant clothes. She put on beautiful makeup before going to the living room.
She pushed the door open, the person was waiting for her inside.
He was a man, tall and muscular, seemed to be about one meter nine in height, his face was not bad, he looked very handsome, he was wearing a black suit.
Seeing her enter, the man smiled at her. 'Miss. Zillah, hello."
Zillah nodded politely, she asked curiously. "Who are you?"
The man smiled and said. 'You don't need to know my identity, you just need to know I'm here to help you."
"Help me?"
Zillah needed help understanding. 'Even though Helga's house is far inferior to Griselda's house, in this city, our house is also ranked first, at least in terms of food, we have enough, do I need your help?"
The man exposed her. 'Miss. Zillah, you don't need to hide, my host learned that you were recently defeated by Tibble Corporation and a girl, so I came here specifically to help you."
Zillah was a little skeptical.
Venn is so good to Bertha, is there anyone in Griselda's house who doesn't want her to live well?
'Your landlord?"
"That's right."
The man nodded and continued speaking. 'To show my sincerity, I brought you a gift that I think you will like."
He clapped his hands and immediately someone walked in carrying a bag.
Zillah stepped forward and opened the bag suspiciously, she was suddenly so scared that her face turned white, and she fell to the ground.
"This is..."
In the bag there was a woman in a coma, her hair was messy, her face was covered, and her whole body smelled of sourness.
There were bruises on her arms and thighs. She was abused in the past.
Zillah looked up at the man in confusion for the first time.
The man didn't speak, just smiled.
But that smile means a lot.
She covered her mouth, suppressing the urge to vomit, and at the same time, she brushed away the woman's disheveled hair.
'This… this is Laura?"
Wasn't she sent to prison by Bertha?
Zillah heard she was sentenced to ten years, why did she get out of prison so quickly?
"Tibble's family annulled her engagement with Derek, and her relationship with Greer's house was severed. She is nothing now, just a piece of trash. What use is she?"
The man still had a smile on his face. "You'll know soon enough."
—
These past few days, Derek has been recuperating at home, and Bertha is also busy at the company.
The two of them were in the same villa at night, but basically, they had never met each other.
The next day, after Bertha had done her hygiene, she walked downstairs. As soon as she entered the stairs, she smelled the aroma of food.
In the dining room, breakfast was prepared, still hot, the food must have been made not long ago.
Bertha curled her mouth, realizing that Derek's cooking skills had improved very quickly.
She walked over and saw the deserted kitchen, no one there.
So she called Tommy. 'Where is Derek?"
"Mistress, Mr. Derek woke up quite early this morning. After preparing breakfast for you, he went to Tibble Corporation to work first."
