Chapter 513


    Shane used Skr of seducing Andrew. The incident at the fondue


    restaurant was a misunderstanding. The others had no idea what had actually happened.


    Skr likely caused such a big fuss over the price that they ended up at the police station.


    Andrew was mostly sober now. However, he didn’t care much about the situation. After all, he just


    needed to deflect me.


    Andrew said, “Yeah, she said she’d be with me tonight, but then she asked for one million. Even if


    she’s pretty, she’s not worth one million, right? I’m not a sucker.”


    “You’re talking nonsense! Who said she agreed to be with you? I can testify It was you who


    approached and harassed us.” Natalie mmed the table furiously. She was itching to p


    Andrew.

    “Natalie, even if you have a falling out with Jeremy, watch your words. Are you making friends


    indiscriminately outside? Does Jeremy know about this?” Andrew continued arrogantly.


    Shane addressed Skr, “You will be held ountable for the impact on my client today. If I were


    you, I would admit my mistake now and apologize to my client. Otherwise, the consequences will be


    more than you can handle.”


    “Even if your husband is a detective, I have ways to make this matter big. When public opinion


    comes out, your husband’s job may not be secure anymore.” Apologize now while you still have the


    chance.” Andrew’s eyes coldly assessed Skr.


    Skr was bing more alluring by the minute.


    Perhaps tonight, he could get her into bed.


    “All of you should be the ones to apologize. Mywyer will be here in a few minutes.” Skr nced


    at the time.


    When she heard Andrew calling hiswyer, she immediately called Jacky. He was already on his


    way.


    “Officer, they’re all ndering us. Don’t trust a word they say.” Natalie seethed with anger at


    Andrew’s shamelessness. She knew all too well how these wealthy and influential people could


    manipte public opinion in no time.


    Soon, truth or falsehood wouldn’t matter to anyone anymore.


    Natalie hadn’t expected a simple outing for fondue to be such a mess.


    Natalie felt sorry for Skr. She wondered if Skr had been scared by all this.


    Skr said she would hire awyer toe over. He wondered if thatwyer would dare to


    confront Andrew’swyer, Shane.


    After all, Shane had a reputation in Jipsburg City.


    Andrew had even enlisted a PR team to salvage his image promptly.

    The police officer was stuck in a dilemma, struggling to grasp the truth. There’s no surveince


    footage on site. We’re still gathering evidence at the fondue restaurant. Please remain patient.”

    “This isn’t about patience. They’re just bullying us.” Natalie’s eyes reddened with frustration.


    At the moment of the incident, she had a fleeting impulse to call Jeremy. But she quickly


    reconsidered. She couldn’t contact Jeremy.


    Unless…


    If things really spiraled out of control, she would consider contacting Jeremy. She couldn’t risk


    Skr getting into trouble, so she hoped the police could handle this. She also hoped that those


    witnesses at the fondue restaurant would step forward and testify to what they saw.


    “Skye.” Natalie looked at Skr with concern.


    Seeing Natalie’s anxious expression, Skr reassured her, saying, “It’s alright. Mywyer will be


    here in a few minutes. He was nearby having dinner, so he’ll


    arrive soon.


    Seeing Skr’s optimism, Natalie wanted to say something. But ncing at Andrew, who stood


    arrogantly nearby, she held back her words,


    She thought to herself, “Let’s not dwell on what hasn’t happened yet. Besides, whoever Skr


    trusts must be capable.”

    Shane seemed unfazed. He casually lifted his chin. His methods were beyond what ordinary


    lawyers could handle.


    If these trivial matters couldn’t be settled easily, there was no reason for


    Andrew to trust him.


    “Why make things so difficult? Later, if youe crying to me, I won’t be sympathetic,” Andrew


    said. He was somewhat exasperated. It was such a waste of his time.


    “She just injured one of my friends earlier. Let’s also have herpensate for that,” Andrew said to


    Shane.


    Shane took note.


    Natalie took a deep breath. She clenched her teeth and murmured, “Shameless!


    “1


    The police noted the situation, realizing Andrew wasn’t someone to mess with.


    Skr looked at Andrew with a cool expression. “If we’re talkingpensation, it should be you


    compensating me:”
