Billionaire and His Scheming Beauty novel Chapter 37

At the police station, Fleur had been in the interrogation room for a while.

She had been consistently drinking water, having it refilled every time.

A young officer had asked her why she was not worried, Fleur had responded: "Why should I be?"

"You really have nothing to do with this?" The police officer really had no more questions to ask, so began chatting with her.

"Who ever told you that? I do."

"..."

"I made the rules. He was beaten up because of it."

"...You..." The officer was stunned speechless. Fleur was too beautiful and graceful in her honesty.

"I accept the Lopez family's accusations." Even the playful tone in her voice had the officer blushing.

......

Fleur had been here for an hour when Virginie arrived. She joined Fleur in the interrogation room after a word with the officer.

It was just the two of them in here. Under the bright white lights tonight, these two woman added some radiant colours to the room.

"Fleur Leroy." Virginie looked at her indifferently. Her hair was half-tied, a whiff of rich arrogance coming off her.

"Why did you offend our Lopez family? Your reputation with a nightclub is bad enough, but now with an added life sentence: Do you really hope to make your life irreparable?"

Fleur casually turned the officer's pen in one hand. "I've offended more than enough people in the past six months. At present, the Lopez family is indeed the largest party to have found offence, but there was no other way. My rules apply to whoever goes to my club, no matter who they are."

"So you've already prepared for the consequences?"

Fleur replied calmly, "I'm not afraid of any consequence."

Virginie clenched his fists. Why was this woman so arrogant? Both in her demeanour and her speech.

Was it because of...Olivier?

"Since when were you so intimate with Olivier?  Do you really think he'll help you out in this situation just because he helped you check the surveillance footage and made you dinner?" Virginie had been stunned for half an hour after seeing the news. She dared not believe that man was Olivier, that he was cooking for Fleur.

Virginie had known him for ten years, but she never knew Olivier knew how to cook!

"He pampers you so much, why would he stand up for me?" Fleur said coolly.

Virginie sneered. Good that you know that, Fleur thought.

"But I'll make him stand up for me. Do you believe that?"

"A woman with your repute would naturally know a trick or two to lure men in. I can imagine some ways to do that." After all, Fleur had only shown up for three days and had already destroyed her ten year relationship with Olivier.

"Our affairs are a long story. Release my staff and I'll bear everything that comes."

"...What did you say?" Virginie could not believe her ears.

"I admit all this started because of me. Let my men go. I'll confess to everything."

"Since when were you this responsible?"

"I don't have much choice. Just my luck it was Master Lopez who got beaten up."

The Lopez family could easily defeat a nightclub. Fleur would not be able to handle a full onslaught of attacks from their family, Virginie thought.
