My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 314

A few days later.

Bella and Leo sat in her office, watching "Morning Gossip," the entertainment news on television. They were covering a live report on Laura Kiels’ case.

On the television screen, Laura’s car was seen surrounded by many journalists who had been waiting for her in front of the police station since morning. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Then, Laura exited her car with her lawyer beside her. She faced the journalists’ cameras with an innocent expression.

Laura Kiels was wearing a white knee-length dress, reflecting her pure image. Her straight black hair flowed down her back, and her face was adorned with minimal makeup, only soft pink lip gloss. This completely differed from her usual glamorous appearance on television or social media.

Leo, witnessing this, couldn’t help but comment, "Wow, why does she appear like that!? Did she not have time to do her makeup because the police officer suddenly asked her to come this early morning!?" He glanced at Bella across from him.

Bella, sitting relaxed on a single sofa with her legs crossed while holding a cup of latte, chuckled at Leo’s question. She shook her head and turned her gaze to Leo.

"Obviously not. This woman deliberately made herself look naïve and innocent in public to gather sympathy from A-Netz and the journalists."

"Fuck! That crazy bitch! How shameless—" Leo couldn’t continue cursing at Laura because Bella asked him to shut up and watch the television.

He closed his mouth and looked at the screen. He saw Laura starting to answer the reporters’ questions.

"Miss Laura, good morning. I’m Lisa Hendrick from Astington Gossip News. I have some questions for you..." One of the female journalists standing right in front of Laura asked, representing all her colleagues.

Laura smiled weakly at the journalist. "Yes, sure. But first, let me say a few words. Thank you all for waiting for me here. And to A-Netz, especially my fans around the country, I’m sorry for making you all wait and worry about me." She said while bowing her head slightly.

Sincerity and sadness radiated from her facial expression. Those who saw her seemed to see how stressed she was regarding this matter.

"Miss Laura, can you explain why the police suddenly summoned you again for an interrogation?" the female journalist, Lisa Hendrick, asked again.

"To be honest, I don’t know why they asked me to come again. As a law-abiding citizen, I came here to help the police investigate the case against my manager," Laura said, pausing for a moment. She wiped the corners of her eyes as if to erase the traces of her tears.

Everyone was silent, waiting for Laura Kiels to continue her words.

"I’m really sorry. I suddenly felt sad remembering Robert’s kindness. I hope he is now at peace up there. He was a good friend and manager to me."

Everyone felt sympathy for her.

But another journalist asked her, "Miss Laura, please answer. Is the case involving Robert true? Is he the sole perpetrator? And, as you mentioned before, are you not involved at all?"

Laura looked at the male reporter who asked the question. With a gloomy expression, she answered, "I’ve explained. I don’t know anything about it, about the result. What I could say now, I wasn’t involved—"

Before Laura could continue her sentence, her lawyer, the man in the black suit beside her, raised his hand to stop her from speaking.

Then he stepped forward, shielding Laura and addressing the reporters.

"Sorry, gentlemen. My client is late now. We will provide further information after she finishes meeting with the investigator. Thank you!" the lawyer said, leading Laura into the police building, leaving the journalists dissatisfied with this short interview.

Some of the journalists stayed behind, exchanging words with each other and expressing opinions about the case that was being hotly discussed throughout the country; Laura Kiels is suspected of being involved in a defamation case and the death of Robert, her manager.

"Are you sure she’s involved?"
