He didn't expect that I would be so calm. His face suddenly became stiff, but he refused to give up and continued to ask, "I have long heard that you're a powerful woman, but I didn't expect that you're so good at defending yourself. Even I should applaud for you. However, I received an anonymous letter a few days ago. It said that your good friend Amy voluntarily turned herself in in the police station. She said that the person who killed Betty was her. Before that, the police wanted you to go to the police station to assist the investigation. Unexpectedly, Amy said that she argued with Betty and she killed Betty for self-defense. You're indeed powerful that you found a scapegoat."
His question was so tricky. It was obvious that he was deliberately finding some excuse to make me embarrassed.
With a cold face, I sneered and said, "You know much more about this matter than Captain Li in the police station. Why don't we go to the police station together and talk to Captain Li about it? By the way, you can tell me who sent you that letter. What's more, are you qualified to question me like this?"
My words made him speechless, and his face gradually became so unhappy.
I walked to him, raised my chin, looked at him whose face was pale and said with disdain, "I understand that you're inquisitive because you want to find some exclusive news, but you can't slander me without evidence. You questioned me without evidence, which impacts my spirits greatly. Moreover, you slandered me. What do you think I should do to repay you?"
Hearing my words, the reporter's face became more and more embarrassed.
He froze and didn't dare answer me.
With a mocking smile, I looked at other reporters who had been taking pictures and said, "Did everyone hear what I said just now? The news should be based on facts. If you make up a story and write false news, you'll get into big trouble. That's all I want to say."
In the end, the reporter who questioned me was driven out by Edward.
After those reporters left, Edward put his arms around my waist and said to me in an ambiguous way, "Ashe, you're getting more and more powerful."
"So, you'd better not provoke me." I pinched his nose and said to him seriously.
Edward chuckled and said to me ambiguously, "You're so fierce. How dare I?"
I looked at Edward furiously and felt hot in my ears.
When I was about to say something, someone came over to chat with him. Then he let go of me and went to chat with that man.
I was bored. Holding a glass of red wine alone, I took a rest on the sofa in the lounge.
"What you said to the reporter amazed me." A charming voice sounded behind me. I put down my crossed legs and turned around slowly, then I saw a gorgeous woman in a black silk dress walking to me.
She was tall, and her face was exquisite and beautiful. Her legs were long and straight, and she had a nice figure.
Looking at the smiling woman in front of me, I already figured out who she was.
As expected, as the partner of the Fang's Group, how could Miriam not come here?
"Are you Miriam? I've heard a lot about you, and you look indeed very capable." I got up and shook hands with Miriam gracefully.
Miriam looked at me and shook hands with me elegantly. Then she sat next to me and said, "You're different from what the rumors said."
"Oh? What do I look like in the rumors?" Her words made me interested and I asked her.
Miriam rubbed the glass in her hand. I narrowed my eyes and looked at her without saying anything.
"It's said that you're a very gentle woman, but you don't look gentle today." Miriam put down the glass in her hand and looked at me meaningfully.
"Of course you can't believe the rumors." I smiled and said to Miriam.
"I heard that Leonard is still lying in the hospital. I don't know if it is true."
"It seems that you has investigated my affairs thoroughly." Hearing Miriam mention my father's name, I looked at her warily. Miriam chuckled and said with a meaningful smile, "Of course I should know more about you. You should know that my aunt is Lorraine, right?"
"What do you want to say?"
I looked at Miriam calmly and quietly waited for her answer.
What did Miriam suddenly mention Lorraine?
"Nothing. I just think that you should know much more about me. My aunt is Caesar's wife, but Caesar always made my aunt cry because of Scott, which makes me so sad."
Miriam said to me as if she was distressed.
I looked at Miriam and sneered, "It turns out that your aunt likes Caesar. How poor she is."
I really sympathized with Lorraine because she liked Caesar.
"If it weren't because of your mother, my aunt would have been happy, but my aunt's happiness was ruined by your mother. What do you think my aunt would do?"
"Are you threatening me?"
