Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173 Remington Desires Deeper Exploration

Roger wouldn't stop inquiring as if finding a new continent.

"I'm no professional. Just know some tricks." Cecelia answered in modesty.

"No, no, no. Ms. Linsey, you should brag about it. Wait a minute, and I'll have it work!"

After Roger left in jubilation, Remington looked down on her and, with curiosity, asked, "Not only you are Nyx, you're also Ann? Impressive. What else identity are you that I'm not aware of?"

"Cats die because of their curiosities. Have you heard of it?"

Cecelia glared at him with her big bright eyes to imply he'd got too many curiosities.

The interrogation room was ready, and through the window Roger asked her to come in, to which Cecelia went, bypassing Remington.

Remington turned around and looked at her beautiful back, and couldn't help but snigger.

It was getting more interesting!

The more he knew about her, the more mysterious he would feel she became!

The more mysterious she became, the more intrigued he was by her!

He was extremely attracted to this girl he desired more information about her.

Cecelia walked into the interrogation room and sat at the table as arranged with an officer recording it at the next seat.

"Shall we begin?"

Roger asked.

Cecelia nodded and, reading files about Scarlett Lou's network, asked, "Scarlett Lou, your current relationship status says you're married, and your husband is a seafood seller. There's a rift in your marriage, and you applied for a divorce with him last September but failed at last."

That didn't even raise a wrinkle on Scarlett Lou's face.

"Ever since the unfinished divorce, you've got a job at Beauty Times. That was when you fell for a man, a married man. Then, you've been having an affair with him."

"How do you know about it?"

Scarlett Lou only lost her emotional control and confess it herself when Cecelia brought this thing up.

"Watch this, in my hands! It was it that told me! Watch it! It talks!"

Cecelia took up a prop for hypnotic purposes and swung it in front of Scarlett Lou's eyes in a growing frequency.

Uncautious, off-alert, and strongly curious, Scarlett Lou was dragged into the game of hypnotism.

Minutes later, she was hypnotized and leaned back on the chair.

Receiving an astonished look from the officer on the site, Cecelia put back the prop in her hands and stood up to go to Scarlett Lou.

Meanwhile, Remington and Roger came in to witness her throwing the leading words.

"Scarlett Lou, you have a terrible marriage, have no love for your husband, been living with domestic violence. You're feeling so tired..."

Cecelia's description made Scarlett Lou shed tears even though she was asleep.

In fact, Cecelia made up those things according to the police files over her network.

Plus, Cecelia noticed the bruises on her arms, most likely evidence of domestic violence.

"You must hate your husband's guts, hate him for being so cruel to you. Then you turn to another man for comfort. Unfortunately, it didn't last long because someone came across you two when you were cheating..."

Cecelia led her to walk through what had happened back then.

They had been caught having sex in bed, for which she had to kneel and begged with tears when she had pleaded, "Don't... Spare me, please... As long as you spare me, I can do anything for you..."

How Scarlett Lou reacted showed Cecelia was correct about her network and her true motive to kill.

Then the key point was asking her who was threatening her.

"Tell me, who's threatening you?"

"He's tall, wearing a hat. I can't see his face... But he's wearing a ring on his finger..."

"What kind of ring?"

"It looks like a skull to me, a scary one. I don't know who he is..."
