Warm sunlight passes through the thin silk window, shining on the large bed with an extremely minimalist style in the bedroom.
When Shane woke up, Bertha was already awake, she was leaning against the headboard, playing with her phone, looking extremely relaxed.
He felt very confused. 'It's early in the morning but you're already playing on your phone, have you been addicted to it lately?"
'No, I'm buying something for you."
Bertha wants to give him a gift. Maybe this is not a normal gift?
'What did you buy? Can I see it?"
Bertha didn't feel anything was wrong, she explained. 'Just a few boxes of nutritious pills, functional foods that are good for your health and…"
Nutritional medicine? Functional foods?
After Shane finished listening, he felt very strange and looked at her. 'What do you buy those things for? Am I still unable to satisfy you?"
"No no no."
Bertha shook her head. 'You're very strong, but last night you said you could do at least three hundred push-ups with one hand, but you did less than a hundred."
Has he been exhausted by her lately?
Is his body weak?
This is a huge problem, she has to buy more kidney supplements, and beef stew for Shane, and she takes good care of his waist.
Shane looked at her in surprise.
The thing he was most proud of, overnight was questioned and questioned by the woman he loved the most.
As a man, his self-esteem was extremely hurt.
Like a calm lake surface, suddenly a huge wave arose.
Rage welled up in his chest, screaming.
It was more intense than dropping atomic bombs on the Pacific Ocean.
'Bertha, I will surprise you, can I finally?"
'Shane."
Bertha struggled but to no avail.
She expressed her profound remorse.

Venn was awakened by the aroma of food wafting in from outside the window.
It's the smell of fried eggs.
Mica is in the kitchen cooking?
He got out of bed, after brushing his teeth, washing his face, and changing into his suit, he slowly walked downstairs.
There was a busy figure in the kitchen, hot milk, toast, fried eggs, and fruit were placed on the dining table.
Mica carried two bowls of shredded chicken porridge. As soon as she stepped out, she caught Venn's eyes.
"Mr. Venn, good morning."
She put the bowl of porridge on the table, she took the initiative to pull out the chair to help him. "I wonder if my cooking skills are to your taste, you should try it."
Venn originally wanted to go to Mr. Tabitha's had breakfast, to him, Mica was just a stranger. Up until now, his wariness towards strangers has been very high.
But when he looked at Mica's simple, harmless smile, his long legs walked over and sat down.
Shredded chicken porridge is stewed very soft, chicken eggs are also fried just right, surprisingly delicious.
'You don't need to do these things. If you want to stay here for a while longer, I can arrange for two more maids to come here to take care of you."
Mica was a little startled, her face showed a mixture of joy and fear at being given too much attention. 'No need, I'm already bothering you because I live here. Chores like housework or cooking are my forte. I always have to do something to feel balanced in my heart."
Venn looked at her expression which was both sincere and persistent. Mica is quite an independent girl, he didn't say anything else.
At the end of the meal, it was rare to see Venn not go out immediately, he sat on the sofa reading the newspaper.
Mica cleaned the kitchen, and when she was about to go out, he spoke. 'Do you have to go shoot a magazine cover today?"
'That's right, how did you know?" Mica held her bag, she stood there unnaturally.
Venn put down the newspaper. 'I just checked your schedule, let's go, I'll walk you to the door."
"No need to bother you, I can go by myself. The agent's shuttle will pick me up at the foot of the mountain in a little while."
Venn stood up, his eyebrows were handsome and his eyes were extremely gentle, his voice was low and calm. 'By the way, I also need to go out. I will take you down the mountain, to the foot of the mountain, you can transfer to the representative's car."
'So... thank you."
The mountain is quite wide, the road has to go around the mountain, and you have to walk down for at least an hour, wasting both time and energy.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Mica seriously bowed to Venn. 'Thank you for bringing me down here, will you come home for dinner tonight? Can I help you cook? If I don't give back, I will always feel like I owe something."
Venn saw Mica begin to bow again, looking at her careful appearance, her whole body wore a feeling of distance like a thick wall.
He frowned, Mica had no need to pay attention to these small things, but she said it, he didn't know how to open his mouth.
He saw the incident of Ronnie's affair this morning. On the contrary, he was quite heartbroken for a simple, honest girl like Mica, she didn't deserve to be betrayed like that.
'Okay, if you want to cook, go ahead and cook. I'll be done by seven thirty at the latest."
'Okay, goodbye."
Mica bowed again.
Venn looked but said nothing, he quietly rolled up the car window.
Alex, the special assistant sitting in the co-pilot's seat, glanced at his boss's face.
'Young master, don't you still have business at the embassy this afternoon? At half past seven, will you be able to make it home in time?"
Venn had forgotten about this incident. 'So please notify the embassy, saying that I have something to do tonight, so they can proceed sooner, otherwise you should change to another date."
Why didn't he inform Mica that he wouldn't be coming home to eat?
Alex looked at Mica who was still standing on the side of the road through the rearview mirror. He curled his lips and secretly smiled. 'It seems that the young master is also quite special to her."
Venn glanced at him, his tone calm. 'She is Bertha's good friend, she is an orphan, very pitiful. She treated Bertha well, I just helped her a little."
"So that's like." Alex nodded thoughtfully.
After Venn left, Mica quickly sat in her manager's car and they set off. She was completely unaware that at the opposite corner, a figure quickly passed by.
