Irresistible Boss Succumbing to Your Touch (Maria Anita) novel Chapter 558

Flavian’s POV

I took a deep breath and tried to put my thoughts in order once again. I looked around the room.

"PH, do you know the girl who talked to that man?" That was the first thing I wanted to know.

"Yes, she's new, one semester behind Manu, transferred from another college. Her name is Karen, room 313," PH informed.

"Dean, I want to talk to this girl right now, and I also want to talk to your security guard at the entrance, because I had to show ID when I arrived, but for the man who took my girlfriend, he turned a blind eye." I was not in the mood for games, and the Dean noticed.

"Your girlfriend, detective?" He swallowed hard.

"Yes, my girlfriend. And if anything happens to her, you and this college will be in serious trouble, and I don't need to tell you that your security guard risks leaving here in handcuffs today, do I? So that worthless security guard better tell me everything I want to know." The Dean sent for the security guard and the student and took us to his office.

"You'll be more comfortable here, sir." The Dean said as we reached his office, and I looked at him irritated.

"I don't care about comfort." I said and walked toward him. "I want answers and I want them fast." The man shrank against the wall.

"Dean, you called for me?" The girl from the video entered the room, and I turned to observe her.

The girl flashed a flirtatious smile at me and sat down. The Dean made the introductions, and she extended her hand to greet me, still wearing that smile. I looked at her without showing any reaction and crossed my arms, leaving her hand hanging.

"How can I help you, detective?" She asked and crossed her legs, making her already short skirt ride up more than necessary. Did she really think she could seduce me? Well, she was mistaken!

"Miss, I want to know who the man was that talked to you during break, what he wanted, and what he gave you." I asked, staring at that girl.

"What man?" She had the nerve to try to play dumb.

"Don't even try! It's on the security video. Start talking if you don't want to be arrested for conspiracy and kidnapping." I threatened.

"Arrested? What's this? Dean!" She looked at the Dean as if asking for help.

"Karen, this is an extremely serious situation! With the security video, the detective can indeed arrest you. I think you better start talking and tell everything." The Dean advised her, and I just raised an eyebrow.

"And don't even try to lie to me." I warned.

The girl finally stopped smiling and seemed somewhat nervous.

"Look, I don't know anything," she said nervously. "That man just asked me to call Manuela, that's all. He gave me a hundred-dollar bill just to do that, and if she asked who it was, I was supposed to say it was Flavian. I don't even know who Flavian is, and Manuela is weird - she hardly ever leaves the classroom, and when she does, it's only with Peter Hank. The man told me to get her out before Peter came back."

"Let me tell you something," I placed my hands on the table and leaned forward, "I am Flavian, her boyfriend." The girl's eyes widened. "And she's not weird, she's just not naive like you. Now tell me exactly what you said to her, word for word."

"I just said there was a man outside the classroom asking for her, said he was a big guy with a stern face," the girl replied.

"Flavian, Manu must have thought it was you - big and stern-faced," Lexie spoke from the corner of the room, and I agreed with that possibility.

"And you thought it was normal for someone like that to look for a student here?" I looked straight into the girl's eyes. My voice was firm and filled with anger.

"Look, detective, I thought the man was very strange. He definitely wasn't a student, or a teacher, or even any other staff member at the college. He was kind of scary," Karen said without meeting my gaze.

"And you didn't think to warn Manu about that? You didn't think to call security?" I raised my voice, and the girl shrank back.

"The guy gave me a hundred bucks just to call the girl. I couldn't imagine what he was going to do," Karen tried to justify herself.
