When she entered, the first one Violet saw was Stanley.
He was sitting behind his desk looking at something while a woman was lying on the couch across from him.
The woman's hair covered her face, so Violet couldn't see what she looked like, but she was very tall as Linda.
Linda exclaimed, "Holy shit, this woman is a model?"
A model?
Violet frowned and didn't think much of it as she walked straight towards the man, "Stanley."
"You're here." Stanley put down the information in his hands and looked up at her.
Violet nodded.
Stanley asked again, "Have you had breakfast?"
"No." Violet replied.
Stanley's expression was a bit unpleasant, "Why don't you eat before coming over?"
"I can't wait." She pouted as she walked over and wrapped her arms around the man, shaking him slightly.
Stanley was not unhappy at once.
On the sidelines, Linda looked at them in wonder.
Sure enough, no man could resist the pampering of a beautiful woman.
"Honey, what's wrong with this woman?" Violet let go of Stanley's arm and pointed at the woman on the sofa.
A cold ray of light erupted from Stanley's eyes, "Fainted from shock."
"Fainted from shock?" Linda looked confused.
Violet was curious, "How did that happen?"
"When Fraser caught her, she probably knew she was doomed, so she passed out, and when I came, she was already like this." Stanley looked at the woman and said coldly, "And you guys know her."
"We know her?" Violet and Linda glanced at each other.
Finally Linda stepped forward and ruffled the hair covering the woman's face, and then a familiar face revealed.
"Luna!" Linda's voice drew up.
Violet was surprised, but more than that, she was stoned.
She didn't realize that these boxes were actually from Luna.
It seemed that Ivy had poked around her connections, and that was why she had bought off Luna.
"Linda, wake her up." Violet pursed her red lips and said in a deep voice.
Linda nodded, "Okay."
She threw away Luna's hair and looked around to see if there was a water fountain to catch a glass of water to splash Luna awake.
However, after looking around, the large office had nothing but a desk and couch, not to mention a water fountain.
There was no choice, Linda had to roll up her sleeves, grabbed Luna's collar, lifted Luna's entire body up, and then with the other hand, slapped two slaps left and right.
Seeing that, Violet almost choked on her saliva, not expecting Linda to use this method to wake up Luna.
Even Stanley raised his eyebrows in surprise and some amusement.
But more than that, he was satisfied that with friends like Linda and Jessie, who had fiery tempers and personalities, by Violet's side, he didn't have to worry about Violet being bullied.
Because both Linda and Jessie would protect her.
"It hurts, who hit me?" Luna woke up in pain.
She covered her face and sat up, about to freak out, then she saw the three people across from her, Violet, Stanley, and Linda.
The moment she saw the three, Luna's face went pale and she was to pass out again.
However she did not.
She even felt that even if she did pass out, she would be slapped awake like that just now.
"You ...... What do you want?" Luna clenched her fists and looked at the three of them warily, "How dare you kidnap me, believe it or not, I'll call the police."
"Fine, then call the police, we'll see if it's us or you that gets caught in the end." Linda looped her arms and said disdainfully.
When Fraser saw it, he couldn't help but praise it, "Nice move."
"Sure." Linda raised her chin in triumph and forced Luna onto the couch, "Fraser, put her hands on it."
"Okay." Fraser nodded.
The two men worked with each other and Luna's hand, then, was forced onto the lie detector.
The moment she put it on, Luna thought she was going to be electrocuted and she was scared to death.
But the lie detector didn't run at the end, and she breathed a huge sigh of relief.
"Well, ask her." Stanley looked at Violet.
Violet nodded and asked, "Did Ivy pay you off to send those boxes to me?"
Luna clenched her mouth not to answer.
She thought that there was no science at all in something like a lie detector, how can a cold machine know if a person is lying or not?
What if she answered truthfully and was also convicted of lying?
That was why she didn't want to answer.
Seeing that Luna was hesitant to speak, Linda slapped her on the back of her head, "Open your mouth!"
Luna was slapped painfully and turned back to give Linda a vicious glare, "Why would I say that? In case this machine misidentifies it, wouldn't I be electrocuted no matter what I answered?"
"You don't have to worry about that." Fraser spoke, "This machine is sensing a person's heartbeat, as well as a person's body temperature change, if you are telling the truth, your heartbeat frequency and body temperature are naturally normal, if you lie, your heartbeat will speed up or slow down, and your body temperature will also increase or decrease, so the problem you are talking about does not exist, so hurry up and answer it."
"You hear me? This machine won't wrong you, so hurry up and say it." Linda urged again.
Luna looked at Violet and then at the expressionless Stanley, swallowed and took a deep breath to speak, "No."
After answering, everyone, including Luna, stared at the lie detector.
A few seconds passed, and instead of the lie detector lighting up red and the current occurring, it lit up green.
Stanley pursed his lips, "She's not lying!"
