Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game-Chapter 660 - 357 Shameful Surrender
"Hiring a lawyer? Miss, you watch too much TV. Without signing this statement, how can you hire a lawyer?"
The police officer, seeing things weren’t easy, threw the statement harshly on the table in front of Angela Scott, even the tone of his voice was blunt.
The loud slap of the statement brought Avery Jane out of her endless thoughts.
"Apologize to Angela, and let this matter rest." At this point, naturally, there’s no turning back.
Avery Jane spoke coldly, her patience was running thin.
If she truly had to submit to that devil-like man, at least she could save some face for Angela now, couldn’t she?
Angela had helped her a lot, and in the end, this whole incident was because of her.
"Hahaha, Avery Jane, you’re quite good looking, but your brain is really problematic. Apologize? Officer did you hear that, she wants me to apologize? You must have gone dumb from sleeping with the man?" Lisa said triumphantly, her eyes full of mockery and ridicule.
Avery Jane could see she was mocking her for her overestimation.
All the pain and resentment in her heart erupted like a volcano at this moment, and she could no longer hold back.
It was one thing for that man to bully her, but now even a company colleague was out to bully her.
At the police station, the officers were still mixing right and wrong, even a fair questioning was absent, the whole statement was biased towards Lisa.
With a decisive expression and no hesitation, she raised her hand firmly and slapped Lisa’s face hard. The crisp sound of the slap stunned everyone; no one could have thought such a fragile-looking woman could deliver such a strong blow, leaving a small red imprint on Lisa’s face.
"How dare you hit me here? You really... you really..." Lisa was terrified by Avery Jane’s anger, which was about to swallow her whole, making her speech incoherent.
Ordinarily, Avery Jane didn’t look like someone who would cause trouble, what madness took her today?
"Officer, you saw her hit me, quickly lock her up." Lisa, in a moment of confusion, didn’t know what to say, only spoke furiously to the officer, pointing at Avery Jane’s face, seemingly wanting to tear it apart in hatred.
Avery Jane gave a faint smile, even the officers were taken aback, as if the first thin snow of winter had fallen on people’s hearts, itchy, tender, numb, with a bit of coldness, yet incredibly beautiful.
There’s no way, she’s already at a dead end.
White as an orchid, her hands held the phone, always carrying that trace of lost smile, it seems there’s no avoiding this path.
Struggling against a man who’s out of a legend, indeed with no chance of winning.
The phone in her hand felt like it weighed thousands of pounds, but she had to pick it up, because if she didn’t make this call, not just Joshua Hughes, even Lisa, the police, Arthur Yates, everyone would bully her.
But if she made this call, only Joshua Hughes would bully her.
With this thought, the phone didn’t seem so heavy, though her heart felt like it was being cut.
"You win, I agree to your terms." Avery Jane’s voice was like in a trance, gentle, light, faint, even the air was filled with a trace of sadness and helplessness.
"Come to the Imperial Garden." The man’s voice on the phone was deep and pleasing, an irresistible magnetism for women.
Avery Jane could almost picture the man’s smug face now, his words reflected this entirely. Indeed, everything went as he wished, in three days, his words like a curse, and she couldn’t escape in the end.
"But your ’three days’ might not work, I’m at the police station, and can’t get out for a while." Avery Jane said quietly, as if talking about someone else’s matter, light and carefree.
From the moment of selling her soul, her soul had no more waves.
"Come over right now." The person’s tone over the phone was already very displeased, as if through the waves one could see his angry face.
But how amusing, she’s stuck in the police station, is this a place she can freely come and go?
Whether she could leave, wasn’t a decision she could make.
