He didn't turn on the light, his whole body was in darkness.

Because he had taken heart attack inhibitor drugs for a long time, this time his disease did not recur.


But he felt pain, his whole body.

The surrounding atmosphere was so quiet that it made his heart panic.

He leaned his back against the door, listening to the movements outside.


There was no sound from the side. Did Bertha fall asleep so quickly?

He was thinking when someone else suddenly turned on the light in the room.


A blinding light suddenly rushed in, causing him to not be able to open his eyes in time to adapt.

The moment he moved his body, his hands were tied by ropes, and someone even tied him very tightly.

Bertha's beautiful face was at arm's length.

"You?"

Bertha stared at the other person with her beautiful eyes, then, she smiled provocatively again. "Who told you not to lock the balcony door? I climbed up here from the next room. Do you think I'm smart?"

Shane was very upset, his hands were tied tightly with ropes, and he kept struggling. "Let me go."

"Have you calmed down yet? If I don't control you, will you be able to sleep? Are you going to sit against the door all night tonight?"

Bertha gently stretched out her hand and lifted Shane's chin.

The other person turned away, revealing a hint of jealousy. "Late at night, you went out on a date with Bruno. Why are you worried about me? Tomorrow morning, pack your things and move in with him."

Bertha frowned. "What are you jealous about again? Can't you listen to my explanation?"

"You lied to me just now, now you want me to continue listening to your explanation? I only believe in the results of my investigation."

Bertha's anger flared up again. "Is it true that I've been pampering you lately so now you're intentionally causing trouble with me? I talked properly but you didn't listen. You want to force me to beat you?"

Shane snorted coldly, he didn't look at her at all, his whole person exuded a cold, gloomy look.

Bertha didn't pamper him anymore, she quickly opened the wardrobe and took out a white shirt, then stuffed it into the other person's mouth.

She then tried to pull him to his feet and pushed him down on the big bed.

The bed is so soft, that Shane won't get hurt.

Rolling around on the large bed, he glared at her with his dark eyes.

Bertha found and took his belt and tied his legs.

Next, she took Shane's hands and placed them on top of his head. She took another rope and tied it to the post above the bed.

"Don't struggle anymore, if you keep struggling, you will hurt, and then I will have to apply medicine to you again."

Shane quickly became angry.

His chest rose and fell violently, his eyes stared at her angrily, he had never been as angry with her as he was right now.

Bertha sat quietly on the side of the bed, she calmly watched the other person struggling in vain.

She placed her hand on the other's chest, reassuringly. "Your eyes can't kill, don't waste time. If you don't listen to my explanation, then I can only use my way."

"What you hate most is being misunderstood by others. You slandered me. That's not okay."

Under her small, reassuring hand, Shane's breathing gradually stabilized, but his hands still struggled.

She sighed and spoke seriously. "Listen, I'll only explain once."

"It's not that you're annoying, you're not my burden either. If I choose, no matter how difficult it is, I will stay by your side."

"As for Bruno, I only admired him since I was young, but now, that's gone. He harmed you and was tormented by the virus. I just hate him now. I wish I could skin him."

"This time, we have gone through so many difficulties, my feelings for you, do you understand? How could you think I would change and choose Bruno? In your eyes, am I that kind of woman?"

"I went to see him tonight. I asked my eldest brother to sponsor him because he knows how to cure the virus in your body. There is no other choice, I just want to save you."

When Bertha finished speaking, Shane stopped struggling.

He lowered his eyes, his eyelashes drenched in tears.

She raised her hand to rub his face, her eyes were also wet with mist, and her eyes were very gentle. 'Are you still angry?"

He shook his head.

Bertha took out the shirt stuffed in his mouth. She helped him rub his jaw. "Is there anything you want to ask me?"

Shane gently rolled his throat and spoke hesitantly. "I'm sorry."

Bertha smiled. "Idiot, I forgive you. Don't be angry anymore."

How could she compare and calculate with a sick person?

Shane was much less angry, he wanted to bury his face in Bertha's arms, but he suddenly remembered his hands were tied to the pillar above the bed.

"Bertha, let me out."

Waiting until he was no longer tied, he immediately wrapped himself around her waist, contentedly burying his face in her lap.

'Do you have nothing to ask me?" Bertha repeated it.

Shane thought for a moment, his eyes became serious again, and he left Bertha's arms, facing her.

"I investigated half a month ago. Did you visit Bruno? Did he tell you about my illness?"

Bertha was stunned.

Liam attributed Shane's ban on him from speaking out to organizational discipline. If Shane finds out that it was Liam's revelation, the consequences will be very serious.

Remembering this, she raised her eyes and looked steadily at him. "That's right."

Shane frowned, he analyzed. "Even Edsel couldn't find an antidote to the S404 biochemical virus, why does Bruno know how? Even if he knows, he is not essentially a who would accept disadvantages on his part, did he use this method to exchange some benefits with you?"

Bertha was stunned, she took a deep breath.

Shane is very smart, he just said a few words and put her in a deadlock.

Seeing that she didn't say a word, Shane frowned even tighter: "Bertha?"

Bertha regained consciousness, she seriously explained. "He holds a secret, I always feel that he is not that simple. Today I brought the medicine he took to the laboratory to test, it's really good medicine, he knows how to treat your illness."

"If he could have given you the medicine, then what conditions did you agree to from him?"

"Give him back his freedom."

Shane is skeptical. "Is that all?"
