He wanted to use such sinister tricks to destroy her face. If she doesn't let him taste it, she won't be able to swallow this anger.
She raised her head, remembering the wound on Derek's body. 'You are injured, stay in the villa to recuperate, you are not allowed to follow me this time."
Derek was worried and didn't know what reason to find, so Bertha didn't let him go, so he had to wait for another chance.
'Okay, I'll stay at the villa and wait for you to return."
The last few words he said, the sound became increasingly softer, but Bertha didn't pay attention, she was still seriously reading Bruno's statement.
'Damn old man Boniface, you hid well."
'Listening to your voice, it seems like you also know Mr. Boniface. Have you been to Griselda's house before?"
Derek raised his eyebrows. Even though he already knew that she was the lady of Griselda's house, Bertha had never proactively mentioned this. Suddenly he had the idea to tease her.
Bertha looked up at him, her eyebrows raised. 'I don't know him, but I know Venn. Perhaps because Venn treated me so well, it made the people in Griselda's house jealous and wanted to harm me."
"Oh."
Derek tried to restrain himself from laughing.
When he looked up, he found Bertha using her sharp eyes to observe his expression.
He quickly looked down, changing his expression to a very unpleasant one.
'What are you telling me these things for? I don't think Venn treats you that well."
Bertha rested her chin, her tone a bit gentle. 'So, you're jealous?"
Derek bowed his head, not answering her question, his tone sad. 'Let me go make breakfast."
It wasn't until he turned to leave Bertha's room that he smiled.
Bertha also smiled and waited for him to leave, she carefully reviewed the testimony two more times, then began to arrange everything to return to S city tomorrow.

While Derek was preparing breakfast, Calista deliberately woke up an hour early.
She wore a light pink nightgown that was both seductive and adorable, leaning against the kitchen door, tilting her head to watch Derek cook.
A man who knows how to cook is extremely charming and sexy, let alone such a handsome man.
He's eye-catching.
She wants to kidnap this man and bring him back to Felix's house, let her play for a few days, what should she do now?
Derek felt like someone was looking at him. He felt a little annoyed and ignored her.
'I've been standing here for half a day, haven't you seen me?" Calista's tone was a bit joking, her lips were pouting, her expression a bit unhappy.
Derek just treated her like air, his hand-cutting vegetables were extremely tiring.
'You are so impolite, I am both the host and the guest, I am also the little mistress of Felix's house. You are just a servant that my sister Bertha raised in the mansion, you dare ignore me?"
Calista felt a bit resentful.
From childhood to adulthood, everyone pampered her, so this servant dared to look down on her.
Derek's hands cutting vegetables stopped, his voice cold. 'My master is only Bertha. Besides her, no one can expect to give me orders."
"You…"
This was the first time Calista had met such an arrogant servant, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
'On what basis should I not give you orders?"
She angrily went into the kitchen and poured the cup of fresh milk that Derek had warmed up for Bertha onto the ground, looking arrogant.
'Please apologize to me. I want you to treat me the way you treat Sister Bertha, talk to me gently. Otherwise, I will tell her, you spilled her glass of milk, I will tell her to punish you."
Derek's eyes were gloomy, his whole body emitted a terrifyingly cold aura.
He threw the empty glass on the ground.
Shards of broken glass scattered right next to Calista's feet. Calista was so scared that she jumped up, and her face turned white, she was afraid those broken glass pieces would injure her precious legs.
Derek glanced at her coldly then he continued preparing breakfast.
Calista went crazy. 'You dare to treat me like that, you are too much."
She angrily rushed over and raised her hand to teach him a lesson.
Derek's face was cold and cruel, he tightened his grip on the knife in his hand.
An unreasonable idiot, let alone she is Bruno's sister, if she dares to touch him, he will kill her.
However, before he could act, Calista's wrist was grabbed from behind by someone.
Calista turned around and saw it was Bertha, her eyes immediately turned red.
'Sister Bertha, he bullied me. He also wanted to harm me. Even though he looks handsome, he's uglier than the men in the bar last night."
She burst into tears, unjustly. 'He is bad and disobedient. Sister, you must help me punish him."
Bertha didn't let go of Calista's wrist. She looked at Derek with interesting eyes and curled her lips in a smile. 'She said you were ugly and disobedient, do you realize that?"
Facing Bertha's clear eyes, Derek put down the kitchen knife, wiped his hands clean, walked up to her, and gently pulled her free small hand on the other side.
His eyes were red, and his expression was pained.
'She wanted to call me, but I just listened to you."
'Also, I was obedient, I don't know why she slandered me…"
Calista was speechless.
This is not her script. How could this man pretend to be better than her?
