My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 243

Chapter 243: Dealing With His Wife’s Enemy (2)
Room 107 looked different from the room where the gangster was detained.

It resembled an interrogation room at a police station, with a table in the middle and four chairs facing each other. A yellow lamp hung above the table.

The dominant navy blue-colored wall made the room vibe seem gloomy.

Robert, Laura Kiels’ manager, instantly stood up from his seat when he saw the door swing open and saw a man wearing glasses enter the room.

His anger flared. After a few hours isolated in this room, he felt his patience thinning like paper.

Detained in this room, Robert felt like a suspect about to be interrogated. Yet, the investigators left him alone to stress him out. When he could no longer hold his patience, someone entered the room, causing his face to turn red as all his blood seemed to rush to his face.

“So, you’re the bastard who locked me up for days in this damn place? Why did you do it!? What was my fault for making me feel like a criminal?” Robert said, pointing to the man wearing glasses before him.

Dylan was speechless. But he remained calm, ignoring Robert’s cursing.

“Who are you? Why are you detaining me here? I will report you to the police because—” Instantly, Robert’s voice trailed off as soon as his eyes saw the figure of a tall man behind the man wearing glasses.

‘Huh!? This man…? Why does he look familiar…’ Robert wondered while narrowing his eyes at the man, trying to look clearly.

It didn’t take long; he knew who the man was, ‘Tristan Sinclair…’

Instantly, Robert felt all the muscles in his body betray him. His legs went limp, barely able to support his large body. He slumped in his chair; he could feel his body suddenly turning cold, frightened.

‘Tristan Sinclair was actually the person who captured me? Why? Why does this man detain me here?’

Robert tried to find the answers to all the questions running through his mind, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t find the answers.

He was puzzled.

Utterly puzzled.

Robert started to feel worried because Laura Kiels, his boss, always used this person’s name to spread gossip between them. And as Laura’s manager, he knew Laura didn’t have a romantic relationship with Tristan Sinclair.

They had only created gossip so that Laura’s popularity would always be a trending topic on all Internet news and social media sites.

‘Oh, God! I hope this man doesn’t know about it.’ Robert prayed inwardly while looking at Tristan.

Robert’s sweaty hands clenched into fists as he saw Tristan stop his step and stand a few paces before the table. He felt all his blood leave his face as he saw Tristan’s disgusted gaze fix on him.

Feeling nervous, Robert could only swallow to wet his suddenly dry throat.

Waiting for a few seconds to pass by without Tristan saying anything was enough to make Robert feel tortured.

“Mr… Mr… Sinclair, why? Why are you detaining me here?” Robert’s voice trembled. He was too afraid to face this man because he knew he and Laura had created many rumors about him.

Now, Robert continued to pray this man didn’t know what they had done in the past.

But…

Wait!

‘Tristan Sinclair must be aware, right!? That’s why he captured me and detained me here?’

Slowly, Robert’s eyes widened in horror as he saw Tristan.

‘Damn it!! This is my end! This man definitely will torture me…’

Robert feels like wanted to cry. He tried to hold his shaking hand under the table, waiting for Tristan to say something.

But after a minute passed, Robert could only see Tristan standing where he was without saying anything. His hands were tucked into his trouser pockets, and his cold charisma made Robert even more anxious.

….

Tristan didn’t answer right away. He walked closer to the table, stopping two steps before it. His eyes were still sharp, looking at Robert.

After being satisfied looking, the man in front of him was sitting restlessly. Tristan said in an unhurried tone, “I will ask you one thing, and your answer will affect your fate… I hope you answer honestly. Are you ready?”

Robert blinked for a moment before he nodded quickly.

“Yes, yes, Mr. Sinclair. I’m ready…please, please ask anything, I will answer you…” He answered quickly.

Whatever Tristan Sinclair’s question, he would answer it honestly.

Robert knew he couldn’t make a mistake in front of this man, or his life would be in danger.

“Good! Was the idea of hiring a buzzer to attack Stellar Entertainment purely your idea?”

Tristan’s question was straightforward; he only needed to find evidence that Laura Kiels was involved in this matter. They couldn’t find anything after monitoring all her gadgets and communication devices, including her email. Laura Kiels seems to know that her cell phone and email were monitored.

Instantly, Robert felt all his limbs frozen hearing Tristan Sinclair’s question.

‘How did Tristan Sinclair know about it?’ This question immediately filled Robert’s mind.

It’s hard for him to believe because he was confident that he had completely covered his tracks. No one will be able to track that he paid for all the buzzers.

Robert clenched his hands under the table. He was trying to find the correct answer. He couldn’t talk randomly because he would be in trouble if he exposed Laura Kiels.

“Y-Yes… It was my idea, sir…” Robert answered briefly.

He had no other choice but to answer like that. He couldn’t possibly reveal the truth because if Laura Kiels asked her fiancé to get rid of him, he would die instantly.

A thin, cold smile emerged from the corner of Tristan’s lips, hearing Robert’s answer. His hand slowly raised while he stroked his eyebrows, feeling displeased.

Seconds later, he muttered softly, “Beat him!”

Two men, no less big than Robert, entered the room. Their aura was like someone ready to kill their prey, making Robert widen his eyes in surprise when he saw them marching toward him.

“Sir… Mr. Sinclair… Why are you asking them to beat—”
