Derek shook his head and said. "No, he refused to talk."
"I want to talk to him alone for a moment."
"Okay."
'Your subordinates are not allowed to eavesdrop on our conversations, including you," Bertha emphasized.
He was suddenly taken aback, his voice a little depressed. "Okay."
After Bertha entered, Derek helped her close the door, he and his other subordinates went under the next tree and waited.
In the small room, Bruno saw her enter, the corner of his mouth smiled slightly.
"Bertha, I didn't expect tonight's dinner to be a scam. Could it be that all this time, you pretending to love me was just pretending?"
Bertha also did not hide. 'Yes, otherwise, how can I catch you."
Bruno smiled, his smile was somewhat mournful.
'When did you start being wary of me?"
'From the moment you took out the gun and wanted me to choose whether to shoot Derek or Laura, I knew there was something wrong with you."
Had she been suspicious of him since then?
Bruno looked at her, he couldn't believe it.
Her face expressionless, she continued. 'The last time, you wanted to leave the city, I accidentally saw that person in black in the hallway of the Color bar, combined with the sulfuric acid attack that happened that day, I became suspicious of you."
Bruno smiled gloomily. "Therefore, it is."
'Bruno, you are truly the only person I have admired since childhood, but why do you want to kill me too?"
He shook his head, denying. 'I didn't, you know, when you married Derek, I was heartbroken."
'If you loved me, I could fight them to the end for you, but… there are so many hateful dogs around you."
"That day at the bar, I stood on the second floor and didn't want to take action. It wasn't until Derek came in that I knew he would protect you so I took action. I didn't plan this to harm you, so how could I hurt you?"
He talked non-stop, his phoenix eyes lovingly looking at Bertha. Even though his face was very pale, it still couldn't stop his incomparable beauty.
But Bertha had no time to enjoy his beauty, she said, laughing.
'Don't you think it's funny when you say these words? If he hadn't protected me, I would be the one injured right now, so you say you didn't harm me?"
Her eyes became colder and colder, she lazily said meaningless words. 'Don't hide anymore, I want to know who harmed Griselda's house. Just tell me, I won't make things difficult for you."
Bruno lowered his eyes, the corner of his mouth hurt, and said one sentence.
'You'll probably forgive me, but he won't."
He?
Bertha frowned. 'Who are you talking about?"
Bruno raised his phoenix eyes to look at her again and said sadly. 'Bertha, your pet is not a nice person, he always uses his acting to deceive you, he has more secrets than me. No matter what, don't let him deceive you."
'He has a secret, I still know it, I just don't want to care." Bertha's expression was cold.
After all, she only had a one-year agreement with Derek, after that they would no longer contact each other, and she didn't care about his secrets.
Bruno smiled in surprise. 'It seems like you don't pay attention to him either. Good, you should thank me, after all, I did deal with a stalker for you."
Seeing her frown, Bruno's blue eyes showed surprise.
'Bertha, don't you know? So he wasn't honest. If you don't mind, look at his wound and you'll know how much he's been hiding from you."
Look at his injuries.
Bertha frowned, wasn't his wound just an ordinary skin wound caused by sulfuric acid?
She felt strange in her heart, but Bruno still had a faint smile on his face.
But that smile looked a bit evil, not like he was lying like he knew something.
'Please speak clearly."
Bruno shook his head, he just laughed.
Bertha was a little upset, but there was no way she could act on him.
He is the head of the secret investigation department, and his status in the world is very high, she has no legitimate reason to act and cannot cause more trouble for herself and him.
She withdrew her gaze, turned, and left the small room.
The door had just closed when Derek walked in.
"How? Did he say it?"
Bertha rolled her eyes and shook her head. 'Forget it, I have confirmed that he colluded with someone else to harm me, I will find another way to continue investigating. Destroy the evidence, don't leave anything behind. Tomorrow you quietly take him away."
Derek didn't reply.
She can investigate slowly, but he can't, he doesn't have much time left.
'Bertha, if you trust me, you leave this matter to me. In the next two days, I will make him reveal everything."
'You know his identity but you still dare to touch him?"
Bertha looked at him seriously. 'The wound on his face was caused by you hitting him? Do you still want to continue torturing him? Behind him is the secret investigation department and Felix's house will not forgive you."
He pursed his lips and smiled, he didn't care about those things.
'Don't worry, I will handle him appropriately."
The two jobs looked at each other.
Bertha was startled, his words sounded incomprehensible, but there was always an inexplicable urge for her to trust him.
'Okay, then you can try it."
Thinking of Bruno's last words from before, she withdrew her gaze, her expression indifferent. 'Come on, let's go back to the villa."
'You go home first, I'll arrange this and go back later."
Bertha's face was serious, she did not allow him to refuse. 'No, you have to come back with me."
Derek compromises. 'So can you wait for me for two minutes? I told Liam to arrange everything."
"Okay."
She agreed. She finally agreed to wait for him for a while.
Derek felt a little happy in his heart.
