Chapter 269
1016words
Shane saved her because she was injured, and she was very grateful but when she knew it was all fake, he deliberately faked his death to make her feel guilty, he toyed with and deceived her feelings, making her look like a fool and cry over and over again because of him.
Even before, she naively thought about not getting married and having children for the rest of her life, and in the future, she would return to X city to guard his grave.
Thinking back now, she feels ridiculous.
She really cannot forgive Shane's actions.
But if she told her to beat him to death to vent her anger, she couldn't do it.
Perhaps, just cutting off contact with Shane would be good for both of them. That will also help her gradually forget these sad things.
She stayed up all night thinking.
Finally, make a decision.
The next morning, after showering and putting on makeup, she left the house and went to Miller's house but did not go to Shane's villa but went straight to find Mr. Miller.
Seeing her serious expression and seemingly having something to say after finishing breakfast, Mr. Miller took her to the living room.
After listening to her serious words, Mr. Miller couldn't believe it, he glanced at Harold who was equally stunned.
'Bertha, did I hear correctly? We just announced your engagement two days ago, do you already want to break off the engagement?"
Bertha's eyes were steady. 'That's right, Mr. Miller, I feel like Mr. Shane doesn't get along, if there's a chance in the future, he and I... can be friends."
Mr. Miller was still surprised when she suddenly made such a decision. 'Bertha, is that kid bullying you? You just tell me, and I will help you punish him."
'No, he didn't bully me, it's just that I…"
Fifteen minutes later.
Bertha's face darkened and she walked out of the mansion, Tyrone was waiting for her outside the door.
Seeing her come out, he quickly went to her and asked. 'How are you, ma'am? Does Mr. Miller agree?"
Bertha sadly lowered her eyes and then shook her head slightly.
Mr. Miller analyzed the pros and cons for her, the marriage between her and Shane was not an ordinary engagement, it involved many things, and it was a commercial marriage.
They were only engaged for two days but now they can easily break off the engagement. That will cause both Miller's house and Griselda's house to face online public opinion and huge economic losses.
It will have a huge impact.
Furthermore, Mr. Miller no longer interferes in major matters in Miller's house. Shane is the current manager of Miller's house. If the engagement is broken, Bertha must discuss it with Shane.
With Shane's evil personality, she guessed that even if she pointed a gun at his head, he would not agree to annul this marriage.
Bertha was angry but she had no other choice.
This time she was truly defeated by Shane's old tricks.
She finally understood why the third brother had been engaged to Karlina for more than two years even though he hated her. As children of wealthy families, it was not easy for them to annul commercial marriages.
She sighed deeply, for the time being, she just ignored the evil man Shane first.
'From today onwards, he and the bodyguards next to him including his juniors, as long as they come looking for me, I won't see anyone."
"Yes."
Tyrone nodded and followed her, they left the Miller's house mansion, but they didn't know that when they passed the corner, a young man wearing a blue suit and gold-rimmed glasses suddenly noticed her.
Anselm squinted his eyes elegantly, pushed his glasses, and asked the bodyguard behind him. 'Is that the mistress of Griselda's house, the one who is engaged to Shane?"
The bodyguard looked intently at Bertha, speaking with uncertainty. 'Master, it seems so."
She is really beautiful, but it seems she is not in a good mood, you should investigate what she came here for today."
'Yes, master."
The bodyguard quietly left. Ten minutes later, he returned to Anselm and reported to him. 'Young master, it seems like she came here today to cancel the engagement but the master did not agree."
'Cancel the engagement?"
Anselm pondered. "This marriage was requested by Shane, from which it can be seen that this girl has a special place in Shane's heart."
The bodyguard said. 'But I heard Shane didn't come to her cleansing party so it seems like he doesn't respect her either."
'You don't understand." Anselm sneered. 'Shane's thoughts are something you can easily guess. But let's find out a little and find out."
'Young master, what do you mean?"
Anselm curled his lips into a cunning smile, and he spoke softly. 'It seems Shane went on a mission, I heard there was a shooting over there, if he knew that his fiancée came to his house to cancel the engagement and his grandfather agreed, how would he feel?"
The bodyguard immediately understood what he meant. 'Young master, don't worry, I will send someone to accurately convey this news to Shane's side."
Because the issue of annulment of the engagement had not yet been resolved, Bertha was still not reassured, so she continued the company.
After a few days of preparation, everything was completed. During these two days, she will move all the contracted artists here, then she will choose a day to cut the ribbon to inaugurate the building.
She sat at her desk, busy all day in front of the computer screen, she carefully checked the profile of each artist signed under the company, and then she carefully selected.
She was about to leave work when she suddenly heard a loud noise in the hallway outside, a noise so loud that it caught Bertha's attention.
She put aside her work and prepared to go out and take a look.
The door was suddenly pushed open, Liam walked in with bloodshot eyes, his whole body covered in blood.
