Chapter 738
Chapter 738 Have You Ever Thought About Starting Your Own Company?
Inside the interrogation room.
The lighting was not too bright, but it was a little glaring.
There was only one table and three chairs in the interrogation room.
Leia sat at the far end and in front of her were two seated police officers who looked particularlyserious.
No matter how they questioned Leia, she would not give them any answer other than she did not know.
The incandescent light made Leia's already pale face look even paler, like a ghoul.
Even though the two police officers had questioned her till their mouths were dry, she just remainedsilent the whole time.
They looked at each other and felt that there was no need to ask her any further, so they said to her,"Ms. Norman, follow us to do a urine test. The test results will tell us whether you took the drugs.”
Leia sneered, and her tone sounded strange when she said, "If the test results show that I didn’t takeany drugs, it means that you guys have arrested an innocent person. If that's the case, how are yougoing to make it up to me? When the time comes, you'll feel my wrath! All of you will be demoted anddisciplinary action will be taken!"
The two police officers became very embarrassed.
Outside the interrogation room.
Queenie sat in the team leader's office, waiting. The deputy superintendent personally greeted her withan awkward smile, ' Mrs. Norman, I heard that your daughter has always been a smart and well-behaved girl. I’m sure she wouldn't have done anything illegal or disorderly, so don't worry.”
He put on a bold face and sat with Queenie awkwardly. He knew that the woman in front of him was notsomeone to be messed with.
Queenie was a very capable and famous entrepreneur in their city. Plus, her husband who was backingher up was an even more powerful person.
If he had a choice, he would rather not involve himself in this mess. Even so, there were anonymousreports of Ms. Norman's suspected drug use and possession with proof. Therefore, when his superiorspressured him, he had no other choice.
However, Queenie acted as if she did not hear anything he said. She just sat there in a daze,unmoving.
After around 15 minutes, she stood up, went outside of the office, and made a call.
The woman's gentle voice carried a helpless cry. "Jack, something has happened to our daughter..."
When Jack received the call from his wife, he was in a meeting with the board of directors. When heheard Queenie saying that something had happened to their daughter, his first thought was thatsomething had happened to Bianca. For the first time, his dignified aura cracked from the shock in frontof his high-ranking directors.
When Jack realized that he was acting inappropriately, he found a quiet place and immediately gaveQueenie a call back. He asked worriedly," What's wrong with Bea? What happened to our daughter?"
Although Bianca had found out who her biological family was, she never changed her surname toNorman as a show of gratitude to the Rayne family for their kindness in raising her. Naturally, Jack andhis wife respected her wishes.
On the other side of the phone, Queenie spoke anxiously, "Our eldest daughter isn't the one in trouble.It's our youngest daughter, Leia."
Jack calmed down a little when he heard that it was not Bianca.
He had just breathed a sigh of relief when his wife's next words left a thick layer of gloom on his uprightand dignified face. "Two police officers came to our house today and said that Leia is being suspectedof drug use and possession. She was then taken to the police station for investigation.
Leia's being interrogated now, 01' Norman. You'd better come quick. I don't think she’s in a good stateof mind right now. I'm worried that something will happen to her...”
Jack's hand almost crushed the phone as his eyes turned bloodshot, flooding with anger.
Even so, he still reassured Queenie with a calm tone, saying, "Don't worry, Queen. I'll be there soon."
In an old-timey English teahouse.
It was a secluded and artistic place decorated with a combination of Eastern and Western elements.Even though it was not a large space, it was very well-decorated, inovelbin
There was a colorful painted folding screen made with rhinestones with a sandblasted finish and apoem on it. Soft music flowed from the speakers above.
In front of the folding screen were two beautifully crafted chaise longue which could be sat on or lay on.It was covered with snow-white mink cashmere and the floor was carpeted with thick velvet of the samecolor, giving the entire room a gorgeous and comfortable feeling.
There was one chaise longue on each side, one on the left and one on the right. Two women dressedin two different colors were seated on each one, both of them looking beautiful.
A pair of slender and soft hands holding a brown teapot with a small spout slowly poured the hot teainto the hand-painted porcelain teacup.
The fragrance of tea wafted through the air, flowing upward.
The woman pouring the tea on the left was Bianca. On this day, she was wearing a plain white dress.She had a gentle temperament, and her soft black hair was draped over her shoulders. Her oval facelooked delicate and rosy, while her pair of dark brown eyes looked bright. They were like gentleglittering pearls. Every move of hers was as elegant as a morning dewdrop rolling down a flower petal.
The woman on the right was tall and cold. A thin green velvet scarf was tied around her snow-whiteneck and she had delicate, light makeup on. Her long hair was tied into a high ponytail. Her slenderlegs were closed, and she was seated in a posture that made her seem like a professional model. Shelooked just like a cold beautiful woman.
Bianca looked at the cold beauty in front of her. Her smile was surprisingly gentle. "Bridget, you'reusually so busy. Why do you suddenly have the time to meet up with me?"
The cold beauty was previously Bianca's senior when she was studying at St. Andrews College. Hername was Bridget Lancaster. She was also an architecture student who studied architectural design.Eventually, the two became besties because they had similar hobbies.
In the beginning, Bridget was very popular in their college. It was not only because of her cool andproud appearance but also because she was excellent in her academics. She won many awards, bothbig and small ones, and made a name for herself in the architectural field at a young age.
Unlike Bianca's poor family background, Bridget's family was wealthy. Even so, she was never proudbecause of that nor would she look down on students from poor families. When she made friends, shedid not care whether they were rich or poor. She only cared about people's character and talent, so shewas very well-liked.
Unfortunately, after Bianca returned to her home country, both of them did not contact each other asoften anymore due to how busy work was. They only occasionally contacted each other on Instagramor other social media to share about what was going on in their lives.
She knew that Bridget was now working in one of the top ten most famous construction corporations inthe world and was the vice president. She was still as dazzling as ever.
Bridget took a sip of the fragrant tea and faintly smiled. That made Bianca feel relaxed and happy. "Ihaven't been back here in a long time. When I was passing by A City today and knew you were here, Icame to see you. How are you doing these days?"
Bianca picked up her cup of tea. "I'm doing fine. I got married two years ago and I have three childrennow. Two sons and a daughter. The older two are almost eight years old and my younger one is twoand a half years old."
Bianca had told Bridget about Luke before, so when Bianca told her that she had two eight-year-oldchildren now, it was not surprising to Bridget.
Bridget put down her teacup, and her cold eyes flashed with admiration." How time flies. In a blink of aneye, you have three children now. Unlike me, who’s been single for as long as I can remember. Bianca,now that your husband is back, are you still the interim CEO for T Corporation?"
Bianca shook her head. Nope. My grandfather got sick some time ago and needs someone to takecare of him. I’ve been staying home to take care of him and the kids. I’ll probably only go back to workafter my grandfather recovers and my children are a little older."
Bridget paused for a moment and spoke with slight sympathy, "Bianca, it’s a waste of your talent if youjust be a housewife. Have you ever thought of starting your own company after you start workingagain?" 'Start my own company?'
Bianca could not help but fall into deep thought...
