Bertha took the lollipop out of her mouth and raised her eyebrows in surprise. 'To think you saw the evidence in my hands."
As soon as she said these words, some people became clear in the lobby, and others also gradually realized something was wrong.
Maximus was taken aback for a moment but quickly regained his composure. 'I work in the police department. Half a year ago, Bruno was arrested for stealing drugs from a laboratory. Of course, I'm impressed with this."
Bertha let out a meaningful 'oh" sound, the corners of her mouth curling up into an even brighter smile.
'Maybe I disappointed you because the evidence was more than just Bruno's admission."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Tabitha read the entire redacted evidence document, he angrily threw the flower vase at Boniface's feet.
The pieces of porcelain shattered instantly, the sound was clear and resounding.
Mrs. Jennifer and Mrs. Meryl couldn't react in time, they both screamed at the same time.
Mr. Tabitha's hand was so angry that she was shaking. 'Boniface. Maximus."
"Oldest brother?"
'See for yourself." Mr. Tabitha threw the documents at Boniface's feet.
Maximus walked over and bent down to pick it up for Boniface.
The two of them looked through the evidence documents together, their faces turned pale at the same time, they looked at Bertha in surprise.
Bertha's eyes were indifferent.
In the past six months, the eldest brother helped her clear the Boniface family's evidence and put it into the third brother's villa.
Boniface didn't expect that she had collected all the evidence, that's why she was so confident.
This is also the main reason why she plans to return to S city.
She looked at Mr. Tabitha and spoke in a dim and gentle tone. 'Father, according to the teachings of Griselda's house, how should the fourth uncle and cousin be punished for harming blood relatives for the sake of the family property?"
Mr. Tabitha's eyes were gloomy, he deliberately raised his voice. 'I must strictly strike their names out of the family tree of Griselda's house, and then send them to prison."
Boniface's family panicked.
'Second brother, I am your younger brother. For decades, I have always followed the rules. I only made a mistake once. You can't be that cruel. You can't send my whole family away."
The three of them ran to Mr. Tabitha, they cried and begged pitifully.
On one side is his biological brother, and on the other side is his biological daughter, Mr. Tabitha was gloomy, and he looked towards Bertha.
'Daughter, you tell me, how should I punish them?"
Bertha didn't need to think. 'Let's follow the rules.
Meryl glared at her. 'Bertha. You are heartless. Now that you are standing here peacefully, why are you being so cold-blooded towards your loved ones?"
Bertha's expression was cold.
She is safe now because there is a man who helped her endure that pain.
They hurt him, they deserve to die more.
When she looked towards Meryl, her eyes were cold to the bone. 'If the person arrested and harmed today were me, would you let me go?"
Meryl and Maximus were both stunned. They looked at each other and answered in unison. "Of course."
Meryl added. 'You are the youngest daughter of Griselda's house, we cannot bear to hurt you."
'If that was the case, you wouldn't have spread the wound on Uncle Four's face everywhere today. When you say things that go against your conscience, do you feel nauseous?"
Bertha had no interest in staying here anymore, she carefully looked at Mr. Tabitha. 'You can handle this yourself, I have no opinion."
After coldly leaving behind a sentence, Bertha left the lobby of Griselda's house.
Behind her, the sound of their prayers continued to be heard.
She returned to the room she had cleaned, her mood unable to stabilize.
The bloody burn wound on Derek's back seemed to be right before her eyes.
She hates why this group of people are her relatives, she can't kill them, so she will let them use their suffering to atone for their sins.
She let out a sigh.
She thought that when she went to Miller's house today, she made up a story in front of Shane, blaming Derek.
So, she quickly clasped her hands in repentance. 'Derek, don't blame me for dragging you as a scapegoat today. Those words made Shane hate me and forced him to break off the engagement."
'Wait until I catch everyone who harmed you, I will return to the city X, will not get married, will not have children. I will stay by your side forever."
Waiting after she finished the penance ritual, the maid urged her twice.
She slowly went downstairs to the dining room, her face cold as ice, and sat down on the chair.
She just picked up the spoon, intending to take a sip of the sweet soup in the bowl, Mrs. Jennifer on the other side looked unhappy.
'You are truly the most pampered little princess in our house. You eat but have to let the adults wait. Have you forgotten all the rituals of the past few years?"
Mr. Tabitha coughed. 'You talk less, please."
Mrs. Jennifer snorted coldly and rolled her eyes.
Bertha also did not give in, throwing her spoon on the plate.
'Mrs. Jennifer, how did you then climb into my father's bed and marry him? Have you forgotten? You don't have an official status, so don't act arrogant in front of me."
"Enough. The two of you shut up and eat." Mr. Tabitha has a headache.
Bertha looked towards him. 'You know, I don't want to cause trouble, it's because she provoked me first. If you don't make her shut up, I'm afraid I can't stay here anymore."
She stood up and wanted to go upstairs.
Mr. Tabitha lowered his voice softly. 'Bertha, don't be angry. Eat, okay? I will try to handle these matters well, please don't move out again."
Bertha hesitated a bit.
Then she saw Mrs. Jennifer staring at Mr. Tabitha, said. "What do you want me to do? Bertha was pampered to the point of being spoiled. She's arrogant and brings up my past, don't I get angry?"
Bertha is not used to seeing Mrs. Jennifer's acting appearance.
But the one who has to leave cannot be her.
She called the bodyguards and Tommy into the dining room, her eyes pointed towards Mrs. Jennifer on the other side. 'Mrs. Jennifer is angry, she probably can't eat, you guys should take her upstairs to rest."
