His skin was already very white, and the wound on his face appeared very clearly.
Bertha mocked him, her tone was cold: "I'm sorry, although I hit you quite hard, but you have a wound on your face, how can you go see the princess? As I see it we will go another day."
After speaking, she didn't want to stay another second so she immediately left without looking back.
Bruno watched her hastily leave. He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled wryly and self-deprecatingly, shaking his long eyelashes to hide the unknown emotions in his eyes.
Bertha heard his laughter and unconsciously walked faster.
As she walked out of Arzee Palace, she saw Liam and Jamie walking towards her.
Seeing Bertha go out alone, Jamie asked: 'Miss Bertha, where is my master?"
Bertha and Liam silently glanced at each other, then she answered Jamie: "He's inside, I guess I won't be able to see the princess today. Please ask someone to take us back to our accommodation. "
"Huh?"
Jamie was a bit startled: "Why can't you suddenly go?"
'Go into the room yourself and ask him."
Taking advantage of Jamie's entrance, Liam quietly approached Bertha. He said in a low voice: "Duke Gaye will come tonight, you can't leave yet."
Duke Gaye?
Liam saw her doubts and he continued: "Gaye Harold, husband of the great princess."
If that was the princess's husband, she would find an opportunity to meet Duke Gaye today.
If she misses today, next time she may not be so lucky. Bertha must go to see Duke Gaye.
But...
She just hit Bruno and said she would come another day, how could she take back what she said now?
She stood at the door thinking of a solution when Bruno suddenly rushed out of the palace.
Seeing that Bertha had not left, his face showed joy because he had found what he thought he had lost. Without saying a word, he immediately walked forward and held her wrist tightly.
"What you are doing?"
Bertha looked down at her hand, stunned for a moment. She raised her eyes and met his deep, watery blue eyes.
This was the first time she saw Bruno's miserable appearance.
When the phoenix's eyes shed tears, they looked incredibly clear and sincere, as if the current him and the normal him were two different people.
Even though Liam was also present, Bruno still choked up and begged her.
'Bertha, I will seriously rethink what you just said, I will change. Can you give me a chance?"
Bertha looked at him intently, she said nothing.
Bruno's eyes were filled with sincerity: "I will prove to you that I am the man who loves you the most in this world. We're already here, my mom is waiting for us to come over for lunch, can you please don't leave, okay?"
Bertha glanced at Liam standing next to her.
Thinking of Duke Guy, her voice softened: "But the wound on your face..."
Bruno touched his face, smiled, and seemed to have no problem: "Later I will put ice on it. If there is a mark left, Bertha will cover it with makeup for me, it's no big deal."
"Okay."
Bertha secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not expecting everything to be so easy: "But I don't like that navy blue dress. If you still want to force me to wear it, I'll leave."
Not dressing him appropriately was her final frontier.
Bruno compromised: 'Okay, as long as you don't go, I won't force you anymore. You just do what you like."
Bertha nodded.
The two returned to Arzee Palace, Liam and Jamie quietly following them.

Eugene's office is at the National Bureau of Investigation.
Eugene sat at his desk, his eyes narrowed coldly, his face completely hidden behind cigarette smoke.
After hearing his subordinate's report, his cigar smoking stopped. He suddenly grabbed the ashtray on the table and suddenly threw it away.
"Bastard!"
His subordinate bowed his head, enduring the pain. He was shaken by his scream but did not dare to say a word.
'Why is Fawn at Shane's house? Even Shane's direct subordinates wouldn't let him into the house, there was something big going on there. Continuing to investigate, we must investigate to find out what happened to Shane."
'But... Recently, we were sitting guard at Miller's house, and at the same time, we also contacted Mr. Benedict so he could send someone to monitor Shane's villa. It seems these days the Young Masters of the Griselda family are always there. We couldn't find an opportunity." The subordinate replied tremblingly.
As soon as he spoke, Eugene immediately threw a cup of tea at him as a warning.
"Watch closely. There will be a time when Fawn comes out. If you really can't wait any longer, then rush in. We have to confirm Shane's illness with our own eyes."
"Yes."
After his juniors went out, Eugene touched the deputy director's sign on the table as if thinking.
Not long ago, he saved Bruno from Shane. Through Bruno, he learned about Shane's illness. The S404 biochemical virus attacked his body in its final stages, causing very serious complications in his health.
This time, Eugene hopes that Shane will be crippled for life without a cure.
'Shane, you've been at the top for so many years, it's time to replace someone else."
He said coldly, his amber eyes shining with unbridled ambition.

Princess Lance Hilda, the most noble woman in the country H.
At noon, Bertha dressed splendidly and went with Bruno to the palace of the eldest princess.
Before reaching the door, they saw Duke Guy, he was dressed aristocratically, walking out of the palace.
Following him was a handsome young man with white skin and blue eyes.
One second, Guy Haro was talking and laughing with the teenager walking next to him, the next second, seeing Bruno, his face that had gone through many ups and downs suddenly turned cold.
