"I've always been Shane's fiancee, I've never changed, what rumors have you heard?"
Susanna's face was cold: "Not long ago at the royal banquet organized by the Princess of Country H, you were so dominant on stage that you certainly didn't pay attention to the audience below. At that time, I was also present at the party."Bertha's expression stiffened.
If Susanna was present at the party, she would surely have known about her wedding to Bruno, no wonder her attitude towards Bertha was not good.
"That happened for a reason..."
She wanted to explain but Susanna looked at her coldly. She walked over and pulled Shane's arm: "Come alone with me, I have something to tell you."
Shane was dragged away.
Bertha looked at the backs of the two people chatting in the corner, her eyelashes drooped, a bit lonely. Liam noticed her feelings, and he immediately went to comfort her: "Miss Bertha, don't worry, she doesn't know, she can say harsh words to Shane, but he will trust you."
"I know."
Bertha replied.
She didn't know what she was afraid of, afraid that Shane would suspect that this baby was Bruno's because of Susanna's words.
How could Shane think like that?
She caressed her belly. Because the baby was so small, she couldn't feel the baby's existence, but she knew that inside her belly, a new life was being formed.
It's her and Shane's baby. Seeing her absentmindedly rubbing her belly, Liam was afraid she was thinking too much, so he quickly winked at Aimee.
Aimee immediately understood what he meant. She enthusiastically walked over and grabbed Bertha's arm, continuing to talk and laugh with her.
Bertha's thoughts were quickly swept away by the cheerful girl next to her, letting the girl drag her into the villa.

Susanna pulled Shane to the corner of the garden.
"Auntie, by doing so you can easily make Bertha think too much. There is nothing that Bertha cannot hear about me. I have no secrets from her."
Susanna wasn't very happy: "Are you blaming me?"
Shane bowed his head without saying anything, his silence meant he agreed. Susanna was angry for a moment, but because he was her beloved nephew, she did not scold him, but said: "Do you know what that Miss Bertha did in country H?"
"I know." He nodded calmly.
"You know?" Susanna was startled: 'If you knew, why didn't you cancel your engagement with her? She ran away to country H to marry another man, and became pregnant with that man's child."
'That day at the party, she vomited right in front of everyone. Everyone in country H's upper class knows this, and she seems to have a lot of feelings for that man. But can you still endure it?"
That extremely affectionate statement made Shane suddenly feel unhappy. He quickly hid his unhappiness, didn't change his face, and said: "Auntie, you misunderstood, the baby in Bertha's belly is mine, the reason she came to country H is also because of me."
"Huh?"
Susanna was confused and disbelieving, she stared at him: 'You were kicked in the head by a donkey? It's like being cuckolded, right? Could it be that you saw it with your own eyes at that party? She admitted that the child in her womb belonged to that man, are you going to be the one to raise someone else's child?"
'…"
Shane was speechless.
That's his child. The one who had to raise someone else's child from the beginning was Bruno.
"This is a bit complicated. I'll slowly tell you later. In short, it's not what you think. Bertha has a very good personality. You will like her in the future."
Susanna said nothing more.
Shane remembered Liam's situation and continued: "If you're back, please help me hold a family meeting."
"Open a family meeting? What are you going to do?"
Shane's eyes sparkled: "Add Liam to the family tree, let him be my father's adopted son."
'Okay, you always have your own opinion, if you have decided now, I will help you."Susanna always works very quickly.
Two days later, knowing that today was a good day, Susanna helped him invite respected elders in the family to watch the ceremony and take notes.
After all, it was Miller's family business, this time Bertha did not go in but stood outside the door to observe.
In the living room, Liam knelt neatly on the rosewood cushion, offered tea to Mr. Miller with both hands, and respectfully called out, "Hello, Grandpa."
Mr. Miller calmly took a sip, then lifted the tea lid, dipped his finger in the tea, and gently dabbed the area between Liam's eyebrows.
After this cumbersome process was over, the Miller elders standing nearby carefully wrote the name "Liam" under Shane's father's name."Nephew, from now on you will be a member of the Miller family. You must be honest, complete your duties well, not do anything that violates the law or family discipline, and remember to always follow the instructions of the person in charge of the Miller family."
"Yes, Grandpa." Liam obediently responded.
"Scat." Mr. Miller leaned on his cane and motioned to give Shane tea.
Liam stood up and Harold helped him move the mattress under Shane's seat.
'Boss, drink my tea." Facing Shane, Liam changed his cautious expression and smiled brightly like a sunflower.
Shane angrily patted his head: "From now on you must call me brother."Liam brought tea to Shane, who sincerely called out: "Brother."
Bertha quietly observed from outside the door.
During this return trip from country H, Liam gained a lot of things and she was also really happy for Liam.
The cumbersome process of joining the family tree finally ended after an hour.
Shane gave Liam a small villa to enter Miller's house, very close to Shane's villa, two alleys away.
Knowing that Liam was given real estate, Aimee chirped around him to congratulate him, then she dragged him to buy some furniture for the new villa. Their relationship is getting better and better.
Afterwards, Shane told Susanna the story. After listening, she realized she had misunderstood Bertha and stopped being grumpy with her.
The person who helps Karlina escape from prison is Maximus - Bertha's cousin. He is also a member of the police department so it was easy for him to do this. He hates Bertha very much because her father left her his fortune, so he cooperates with Karlina and Fallon to harm Bertha. But their plan had not yet begun when Liam discovered it. Karlina was sent back to prison. Maximus was dismissed. Fallon was fired by Shane, she was no longer a representative of his company.
About the fact that Bruno is still alive, only a few people know, including Eugene, so he doesn't scold Mica anymore. He wanted her to return to Felix's house and she agreed. Eugene tells Mica about how crazy their mother became. Mica feels heartbroken and cares for her mother. Thanks to Mica's care, her mother gradually recovered. The party to welcome her home was fun.
Bertha got pregnant before the wedding, making her brothers very angry. Considering the feelings Shane has for Bertha, they decide to forgive Shane and accept him as their brother-in-law.
In the end, as for Dante, he accepted Olwen's love.
After the difficulties, everything was peaceful.
