Chapter3 Bang ! With a loud crash , the two cars collided .
Marta was confident ; although the cars had crashed , the damage was not severe .
I unbuckled my seatbelt and , moments later , saw Irvin angrily get out of his car .
Marta tried to move , but I held her down .
Dont move , rich women dont get out to check accidents .
Sure enough , Irvin walked over and knocked on the drivers side window .
When the window rolled down , Irvin opened his mouth , but as soon as he saw me sitting 1/7 Chapter3 + 5 Points in the passenger seat , his expression froze .
Bertha … I quickly switched to a smiling face .
Darling ? What are you doing here ? Its just that my friend was driving too fast .
Irvin furrowed his brows and looked at Marta in the drivers seat .
Good , she had followed my instructions .
Now Marta was casually scrolling on her phone , not even looking up .
Oh , so this is Berthas husband ? Irvins anger made the veins on his forehead bulge , but he repressed it , probably because I was still there .
Whos this ? 2/7 Chapter3 + 5 Points Oh , this is my friend , Cora .
She just came back from Europe , so shes not used to driving , and thats why the accident happened .

I introduced her , patting Martas shoulder .
Marta finally smiled and put down her phone , looking at Irvin .
Sorry about that , Ill have my assistant bring over the payment soon .
Irvin was momentarily stunned before his gaze shifted to Martas neck .
The necklace I had picked out for her earlier -Bvlgaris latest style rented for several thousand a day.
My husbands greatest strength was his obsession with flashy things , and I could already see him calculating in his mind .
3/7 Chapter3 + 5 Points Irvin forced a smile .
Its alright .
Since shes Berthas friend , no need for compensation .
Its also dinner time , how about you both come home with me ? I turned my face away , subtly smiling with satisfaction .
The fish had taken the bait .
Back at the house , I went into the kitchen to cook , occasionally glancing at Marta and Irvin .
Bertha , you live in such a place ? Are your parents really okay with this ? Marta looked around the house with disdain .
Irvin lowered his head , showing a little impatience .
The house is indeed a bit small , 4/7 Chapter3 + 5 Points but Ill buy Bertha a bigger one in the future .
I chopped the meat harder , a mockery rising in my heart .
Buy a bigger one for himself , right ? If he killed me , that insurance payout would be substantial .
Add in the assets he had transferred earlier , and he would live comfortably for the rest of his life .
But , as always , once people get a portion , they always want more .
Darling , could you get Cora a glass of water ? I called out to the living room .
Irvin finally stood up and went to the kitchen to get Marta some water .
5/7 Chapter3 + 5 Points He quietly asked me , Bertha , whats Coras background ? I dont remember you ever mentioning her .
Those jewels and watches , they dont seem cheap .
I put down the knife and stared at him .
Oh , she used to be my distant cousin , but her family was very poor .
Somehow , after going abroad , she became incredibly rich .
I heard she bought more than ten villas as soon as she returned .
I exaggerated as I spoke .
Irvin frowned , a bit suspicious , but nodded and took the water out to the living room .
The plan was progressing smoothly .
During dinner , I pretended to be warm and invited , Cora , we havent seen each other 6/7 Chapter3 + 5 Points in so long .
Why dont you stay with us a few more days ? Marta picked up some food and nodded .
Sure , I just got divorced , and I could use a sister to talk to .
We didnt speak much after that .
But Irvin seemed increasingly restless … 7/7 Chapter4
