Dorian felt a surge of fear at ine’s threatening demeanor and replied helplessly, “I can help you check on the status, but if the transaction has already been reported to headquarters, there’s nothing further I can do.”
Frustration boiled within ine as she gritted her teeth. In a fit of anger, she sshed coffee onto Dorian’s face and yelled, “Hurry up! What are you waiting for? I need this done now!”
Dorian let out a pained scream. Thankfully, the coffee wasn’t too hot; otherwise, he would have suffered severe burns.
Despite his growing anger, he dared not challenge the so-called VIP. Instead, he said submissively, “Please hold on a moment; I’ll check the transaction status right away.”
He quickly logged into the system, his eyes widening in surprise as he eximed, “Wait a minute! This is odd. The system shows that the transaction has been canceled and the funds have been refunded.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
“What the hell? Where did the money go?” ine demanded furiously.
“It was refunded to your ck card; the money is back in your ount,” he replied.
“What?!” ine’s anger exploded as she swung her hand and pped Dorian hard across the face. “What the hell did you do, you idiot? Why was the money refunded back to the card?!”
Tears welled up in Dorian’s eyes. “Ma’am, I have no idea! The order came from headquarters, not from me…”
“Get out of my way!” ine mmed her hand on the table and shouted, “Quickly transfer the money again, or I’ll destroy this bank!”
All that consumed ine’s thoughts was the staggering amount of 21.9 billion dors. She would have pushed anyone, even her own mother, aside to seize that money without a second thought.
She had the fortune almost within her grasp, but she never anticipated that headquarters would send the money back into Charlie’s ount! What on earth was happening?<fnb333> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on F?ndNovel</fnb333>
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed outside the VIP room.
With a loud crash, the door was kicked open, and a group of police officers armed with guns stormed into the room, demanding, “Who just used the ck card for a transaction?”
Dorian blinked in disbelief, stuttering as he pointed at ine, “It was thisdy here. What’s going on?”
The police ignored him and turned their attention to ine. “What is your name?”
Her heart raced, thumping so hard it felt like it would leap from her chest.
What’s happening? Did Charlie call the police on her?
She was his mother-inw! Surely it wasn’t illegal for a mother-inw to take from her son-inw, right?
Lost in her thoughts, the police pressed again, “What is your name?”
“I… I…” ine stuttered, “I’m ine Wilson…”
“ine Wilson, is it? You are under arrest for suspected involvement in a major overseas bank fraud!”
He then gestured to two officers beside him, “Cuff her and take her away!”
The color drained from ine’s face. “Officer, there must be a mistake! I just came here to make a transfer. The card isn’t mine, and I’m not involved in any fraud!”
The officer replied coldly, “You have the right to remain silent. Speak only when we reach the interrogation room. As public servants, we will protect good citizens, but we will not let any wrongdoers escape.”
