Shane was still seriously feeling the snowflakes falling onto his palm, he continued to ask. 'You told me this morning, that she wouldn't marry Bruno because of drugs, is that true?"
Venn didn't know too much, but to calm Shane down, despite everything, he could only continue to make up stories.
'Of course it's true, Bertha has already said it, she has a perfect way to get the antidote, you just need to wait for her at most half a month, she will return. What's more, there is Liam by her side. He is an elite member that the National Investigation Bureau has been cultivating for decades, you can rest assured."
Hearing Venn's words, Shane felt much more secure.
With Liam there, with his personality, he will protect Bertha.
But he hopes both of them can return safely.
'Let's go, let's go back to bed."
Venn took Shane's arm and took him back to the room, he helped him turn on the air conditioner, and then Venn went downstairs and made ginger tea.

Country H.
The chef brought lunch to Bertha's room. Because she was not used to the taste here, Bertha ate very little.
At noon, the temperature suddenly dropped, and snow fell rapidly from the sky.
This snowfall was very heavy, within just half an hour it covered the whole yard with a layer of white snow.
Because this is a suburb, the sky is high and the land is wide, the snow is white, extremely beautiful.
Bertha stood by the window watching the snow. She looked absentmindedly at the white snow outside.
Liam came over, he gave her a thick coat and helped her close the window. 'It's much colder here, Miss Bertha should wear a little more."
Bertha did not refuse, she put on her coat.
She still has important tasks to do, she must maintain her health, and she definitely cannot get sick.
Liam saw that her eyebrows were very empty, and he asked gently. 'Miss Bertha is missing my boss?"
Bertha nodded, her eyes still looking at the snow outside the window. "Such a beautiful scene, I originally intended to take a photo and share it with him when I returned, but suddenly remembered that my phone had been confiscated, and... now he can't see it either."
Liam's heart sank.
He looked at Bertha's blank expression and felt even more uncomfortable. If he was still like that, Bertha didn't know how uncomfortable she was in her heart.
Because of these words, the atmosphere in the house suddenly became very low, with a hint of sadness.
Liam originally intended to comfort her with two words, but he didn't know what to say.
The silence in the living room was finally broken by a knock on the door.
The two of them immediately regained their emotional circuits.
Bertha looked at the tape recorder on the table. Liam understood. He put all the tape recorders back in their place and quickly went upstairs, returned to his room, and locked the door.
The knocking on the door became more and more frequent as if someone was waiting impatiently.
Bertha was in no hurry to open the door.
At the moment the door opened, the man wearing a noble mink coat, his face no longer showed pain after being tortured in prison, he had restored his usual handsome appearance, his deep phoenix eyes narrowed. He smiled, gentle yet cruel, truly more beautiful than a woman.
There was snow on him like he couldn't wait to run here.
If it were seven years ago, perhaps Bertha would have been surprised by this face and person.
But now, no matter how handsome he is, just being named Bruno will make her hate him.
'We haven't seen each other for almost a week. You dress well. Unfortunately, the dirty, evil heart behind this appearance is nothing more than an animal."
As soon as she arrived, she teased her. Bruno was not angry at all, on the contrary, he smiled happily.
"Your mouth is as sweet as honey. It's been a long time since I've seen you. You're still so beautiful. You're the woman I love."
Bertha's face turned cold, she tilted her head to look at the falling snow outside the window, ignoring his meaningless words.
Bruno very naturally walked into the living room, took off his jacket, and threw it on the sofa. 'Are you familiar here? Does lunch suit your taste? If you don't like it, I can arrange it."
Bertha went to the sofa and sat down, she poured herself a cup of tea. 'What makes me bored is you. Why don't you take a knife and deal with it yourself?"
'If I'm dead, how can I marry you? Moreover, then you won't be able to get the high-grade virus medicine, and Shane will also have to die, so it seems that my life is very precious."
She was about to throw up because of Bruno's words.
'Blame me for being blind before, not realizing you were a pervert. When I was little, when you taught me how to shoot, I should have shot you dead."
Bruno was teased by her, he smiled brightly. "Bertha, you are so lovely. The more I look at it, the more I like it. When we get married, it will certainly be very interesting days."
At the end, his dark blue eyes stared at Bertha.
Bertha was too lazy to listen to him continue babbling. 'Now that I have arrived, when are you going to give me the high-grade virus medicine?"
'Don't rush, I'll wait for you here for a few days so you can get used to it. In general, we will get the marriage certificate first and then hold the wedding. The night I share a room with you, I will deliver the medicine to you. "
Bertha's hand hidden in her white fur coat suddenly clenched.
Shared room?
