When Bertha, standing next to her, heard that, she laughed.
Previously, Calista had a habit of being arrogant, arrogant, and unafraid of anything, but she did not expect to be pranked by Derek one day.
"Bertha..." She pouted and looked at Bertha, her sparkling eyes looked like she was about to cry. She wanted to denounce Derek but was afraid of losing to this man.
Bertha looked serious, she looked straight into Calista's eyes and spoke. "Calista, what he said is not wrong, he is only responsible for listening to what I tell him. You stay at my house, eat, and use my furniture, but you beat my maid, Is it too much to do that?"
Calista was stunned.
Bertha continued. "This isn't Felix's house. Even though I consider you my little sister, that doesn't mean I'm going to spoil you."
"Bertha..."
"Tomorrow I will go to S city, I will buy you a plane ticket, and then we can go together."
"Huh? I have to leave tomorrow. I haven't even spent three days at your house. Bertha."
Bertha ignores Calista's pleas.
If Bertha hadn't taken her home, could she have left her at this beach villa with Derek for two days? Who knows what they will do?
"You've been gone for many days, it's time for you to go home." Bertha pushed Calista's shoulder, she was a bit unhappy. "Go upstairs and change clothes. Who are you trying to seduce dressed like this?"
Calista pouted, she reluctantly went upstairs.
After waiting for her to leave, Bertha turned her head to look at Derek.
He seemed to be very happy, even his eyebrows showed the word "happy".
Bertha glared at him, smiling coldly. "She must look beautiful in a nightgown, right?"
Derek raised his hands in surrender, his expression innocent. "I don't even care what color outfit she's wearing. In my eyes, your figure is the most perfect, I only like you."
Bertha felt sick to her stomach at Derek's cheesy words. She changed the subject. "Are you still interested in sitting and enjoying tea with a twenty-year-old girl? Are you free?"
Then she pointed at the broken glass on the floor and said. "You broke my glass, please compensate."
Derek looked at her with gentle eyes. "Okay, is it enough if I compensate ten times more?"
"That's OK."
Bertha raised her eyebrows, her tone a bit arrogant.
Derek saw Bertha's beautiful and graceful appearance, and he remembered her smile forever in his heart.
At one point he was so emotional, he just wanted to hug her and never let go.
But... maybe he doesn't have that chance anymore.
After breakfast, Bertha did not go to the company. She rested at home for a day and arranged a flight to S city by the way.
She sat on the sofa in the living room, watching TV while using her phone to work.
Derek washed the fruit, then sat next to the sofa and ordered an apple for Bertha to eat.
And Calista pulled Tommy's bodyguards out to the garden to play on the swings.
Peaceful days always pass very quickly.
The next day, Bertha and Calista had finished packing their luggage. Derek voluntarily brought Bertha's suitcase downstairs, and Calista's luggage was taken care of by Donald.
Venn was not reassured, he also wanted to go with her to S city, so the two of them met at the airport.
Derek wanted to go see Bertha off, but she didn't agree.
"I'm going to S city for a few days, you don't need to go to Tibble Corporation, Allison is there to take care of it, so there should be no problem. Just stay at the villa and wait for me these two days, I'll send Tyrone, Casey, and Archie to stay with you."
"If you go for two days, you have to bring many bodyguards with you. Leave Archie alone at the villa. I'm not going anywhere, so why do I need so many bodyguards to watch over me? Besides, even if I wanted to go, Even the five of them working together couldn't stop me."
Bertha thought for a moment, he was right, in the end, she only left Archie alone.
Calista sat in the car first, her face showing an unhappy look. Bertha finished packing and was about to go out to open the car door when Derek once again grabbed her arm.
"What do you do..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Bertha was hugged to his chest.
"Please take care, when you go out, remember to eat well."
"Um."
Bertha's tone was a bit indifferent, her expression also indifferent.
She was only gone for two days, why did he have to make such a big deal out of it?
But in the end, she didn't say anything sarcastically to him, she left his arms, then she decisively opened the door and got into the car.
Until the car started, Derek remained standing in place, his deep black eyes kept following the car's silhouette until it disappeared.
Archie stood next to him, he noticed Derek's facial expression and then spoke up to remind him. "Mr. Derek, Mistress is gone, it's starting to turn winter, it's very cold outside, you're still injured, please come inside."
Derek didn't say anything, he just stood still and didn't move.
Archie couldn't advise, he just had to go back inside first.

Bertha met Venn at the airport, and the two quickly boarded the plane together.
Venn covered her body with a thin blanket, Bertha did not refuse, she just stared out the plane window.
Not knowing what was going on, ever since she got on the plane, she always felt uneasy, and sometimes her eyelids twitched a few times.
It seemed that Venn also felt that she was not very comfortable, he gave her a sedative drink. "It's probably because it's been a while since you last came back to S city. This time you returned quietly, so you feel a little nostalgic in your heart."
Bertha didn't understand why she was panicking inside. "Yes."
City X is quite far from city S. By the time they got off the plane, it was already dark.
