Chapter 209 Always Felt That Something Was Off
Greyson was asked to come to the station to give his statement.
He briefly explained the situation, then made his stance clear, âSuch a person is too despicable,
absolutely cannot be let off.â
âI hoped it could be handled seriously.â
The police officer handling the case said, âHe has already fainted from crying in the temporary
detention room, claiming that you guys set him
up.â
Greyson handed over the voucher written by Virgil, âWhether we cheated him or not, this is the proof.â
âWho would be so foolish to give him two hundred thousand for no reason, if it werenât for his threats
and extortion?â
âHe even asked for two million, but I didnât agree.â
âAlright, we will handle the case impartially. If it really involves extortion, it will be dealt with by the
judicial authorities. Thank you for your cooperation.â
. When I finished recording my statement, I happened to run into Virgil.
who was handcuffed and ready to be taken into custody.
He saw Greyson and suddenly fell to his knees with a thud.
With tears streaming down her face, she clung to Greysonâs thigh and sobbed, âI know I was wrong!â
âPlease, donât let them sue me.â
âI apologized to you, I made amends to you, I swore I would never dare to do it again.â
âIf I had gone to find her, to harass her, I wouldnât have been a human, but a beast, a pig, a dog!â
Greyson looked at him coldly, isnât it a bit late to realize your mistake now?
If admitting a mistake was useful, then what was the law for?
Thinking of his previous smug demeanor, Greyson was not polite, âLet go of me!â
âNo!â
âNo!â
âI begged you, I pleaded with you!â
âGive me a way out!â
âAs long as you spared me, I would be your ser vant in my next life.â
Greyson lifted his foot and walked away, while Virgil lay on the ground, crying and wailing in pain.
Desperately pounding on the floor, âAhhhhâAhhhhââ
With Greysonâs departure, it was announced that he was completely finished.
Coming out of the office, Greyson looked at the azure sky and suddenly sighed, âI really need to study!â
âOne needed to know how to use the law to protect oneself.â
It seemed that I would need to build a strong legal team in the future.
Any troubles could be handed over to them for handling.
Rebecca only stayed at home for two days before she had to rush to the film set to start shooting.
Filming a drama took at least several months, which meant that she was basically not at school for this
semester.
The company had assigned dedicated staff, assistants, and bodyguards to ensure their safety 24 hours
a day, so Greyson was relatively at ease.
Besides, even if Rebecca didnât have time to come back, he could go to the set to see her.
The two people were affectionate for two days, and then Rebecca left reluctantly again.
Only Vera came back silently, and then silently left again.
The crew was all veterans, they just brought on two newcomers.
The investor was Prospect Capital, and in addition to Rebecca and Vera, other company personnel
also served as producers.
It was mainly to put an end to all the mess in the circle.
Of course, some things were unavoidable, but they had to ensure the absolute safety of Rebecca and
Vera.
After seeing off Rebecca, Greyson unexpectedly ran into Flora at the airport.
It was precisely the sunny March at that moment, and Flora was wearing a black spring dress.
Despite being travel-worn, she had a face that was strikingly fresh and radiant.
âMr. Byrne?â
She walked out of the airport exit, exclaiming in surprise.
Greyson paused for a moment, women of this age indeedâ¦
He asked with a smile, âMs. York, where have you been traveling from?â
Flora said, âI went abroad and it exhausted me.â
âHey, could I ride in your car to go back?â
âSure thing!â
Greyson brought her to the parking lot, not knowing what she had bought, the suitcase was very heavy.
After being stuffed into the trunk, Flora got in the car with Greyson.
The scent of the perfume on her was particularly pleasant, so Greyson asked, âWhat brand is your
perfume?â
Flora laughed, âWhat? Want to buy it for your girlfriend?â
âIâll give you two bottles later.â
âNo need, no need!â
Greyson just liked this flavor.
Moreover, he didnât like to take such small advantages, and more importantly, two bottles were not
enough.
After entering the city, Flora was particularly polite, âMr. Byrne, letâs have a meal together.â
âIt was mealtime, I was treating.â
âNext time then!â
âYou just got back, take a good rest and get over your jet lag.â
Greyson declined.
Floraâs beautiful features curled into a smile, âAlright, Iâll look for you another day.â
âYou were not allowed to refuse then.â
âOh, by the way, your deposit can be transferred out now. Next time when you need it, we hope for
more support from Mr. Byrne.â
Greyson nodded, âDeal, itâs a deal!â
Flora opened her suitcase, took out some gifts she had brought back from abroad, and insisted on
giving Greyson two bottles of perfume.
Greyson couldnât refuse, âThen Iâll take a bottle! Thank you!â
This bottle of perfume probably cost around two or three thousand!
Greyson didnât know specifically either.
After returning to Elephant International Estate, Greyson said to Marlon, âYou should rest, Iâll give you
two days off.â
Marlon looked at him, puzzled, âDid I get in the way again?â
âDonât be like this, boss. My eyes often suffer from intermittent insomnia, I canât see anything.â
âGet out!â
Greyson glared at him, he was also considerate of Marlon.
Marlon said, âAlright, call me anytime if you need anything.â
âI arranged a driver for you to drive.
Back in the villa, Xenia was eagerly waiting, âThe boss is back!â
Bent over and handed over a pair of slippers.
Of course, she knew that the bossâs official girlfriend had visited the film crew today, so she specifically
went to buy turtle stewed with chicken, and personally made several dishes.
Greyson handed her a bottle of perfume, and Xenia happily took it in her hands.
âThank you, boss!â
Greyson said, âBuy a few more bottles of this brandâs perfume at the mall this afternoon, this one is for
you.â
âOh!â
Xenia swiftly packed up her things, âBoss, itâs time to cat.â
Greyson was invited to the restaurant, and Xenia served the freshly stewed chicken soup.
âMmm, it smells so good!â
âCould you still cook?â
Greyson looked puzzled.
Xenia laughed, âI learned from a video, try it and see if itâs good.â
She was wearing an apricot, dressed in thin spring and autumn clothes, quite like a maid in a movie.
âSit down and eat with us!â
73.76%
Greyson greeted Xenia, who happily sat down across from him.
A turtle stewed with chicken, a braised eel, a steamed cured meat, and also made a dish of the Oak
Group shrimp and baby bok choy.
She peeled the shrimp from the Oak Group and placed them on the plate in front of Greyson, âBoss,
why donât you try this and see how it tastes?â
âHmm! Pretty good.â
Greyson saw her being particularly diligent today, âXenia, do you have something going on?â
âNo, there wasnât!â
When she shook her head, even her chest moved along.
âReally, there wasnât?â
âThere really wasnât any!â
âAlright then, you should have bought the perfume back earlier in the afternoon.â
âIt would be best to match a few more lipsticks.â
âGreyson ordered,â
âAlright!â
After finishing his meal, Greyson took a short nap on the sofa.
Hearing Xenia humming a tune, happily washing dishes, he couldnât help but wonder, âDid this girl find
a treasure today?â
He didnât know why, but he always felt that something was off.
