When Michelle saw her, a sneer appeared on her lips: “I didn’t expect that the first person to come to see me would be you.”

Huang Keren looked at her with a hint of disdain in her eyes. In just two months, a person could change so much. But thinking of the purpose of this trip, she suppressed her discomfort and said, "After all, we are friends, so it's only right for me to come and see you."

Michelle looked at Huang Keren and chuckled. She ignored her politeness and leaned back in her chair. "Don't beat around the bush. I know you didn't come to see me just for the sake of it. Just tell me, what do you want from me?"

Huang Keren looked at Michelle's mocking smile and felt that she shouldn't bother with a prisoner, so she said bluntly: "Okay, then I'll be frank. I'm here to get my one million back. You've been in jail, and the club can no longer open, so now you should return the one million to me."

Michelle heard this, as if she had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, and she burst into laughter. Then she said innocently, "One million? Where did you get one million? You actually blackmailed a prisoner like me, Huang Keren, you're going too far!"

Huang Keren looked at Michelle's arrogant and fearless smile, suppressed her anger, and said again: "I gave you one million to invest in the beauty salon, you won't deny it, right?"

Michelle said, "Huang Keren, you need evidence to speak. You said you would give me one million? You are really rich, but do you have any witnesses? Any receipts? Or any transfer records? As long as you can provide one of them, I will admit it."

Huang Keren was speechless when she heard this. She had no proof of the middleman, nor any receipt or transfer record. At that time, she gave Michelle one million in cash because Michelle said the decoration company needed cash, so she withdrew one million in cash from the bank and gave it to Michelle.

At that time, she thought that Michelle's family was rich and would never embezzle her one million, so she did not ask for a receipt.

At this moment, Huang Keren finally realized that if Michelle refused to admit that she had received the one million yuan from her, she seemed helpless. She couldn't help but panic and said hurriedly: "Xue'er, you have a rich family, one million yuan may not be a big deal to you, but for me, this is almost all my savings, you can't embezzle it."

Michelle looked at Huang Keren who was about to cry, and chuckled and said, "Ms. Huang, I really don't know what the one million you mentioned is about. Besides, I'm just a little girl who came from the countryside to work. How can I afford to open a club? You are too flattering me."

Huang Keren watched every moment Michelle spoke. She heard every word clearly, but for some reason, she had no idea what all the words meant when put together.

"Just a little girl from the countryside working? Xue'er, you're such a joker. Everyone knows that your family owns two garment factories. How can you not be able to open a beauty salon?" Huang Keren suddenly widened her eyes, stared at Michelle, and shouted, "Michelle, you're lying to me!"

Michelle saw Huang Keren's angry eyes through the window and said lightly: "I made this up. Is it my vanity? If I said I was just a girl from the countryside, would you play with me?" After saying that, she stood up and asked the instructor to go back. Then the conversation with Huang Keren ended and Michelle was taken out of the conversation room.

Huang Keren looked at Michelle's departing back, stood up suddenly, and shouted loudly: "Michelle, come back! Come back..."

Michelle listened to Huang Keren's unwilling roar and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Huang Keren couldn't blame her entirely, she could only say that she had offended someone she shouldn't have offended. Did she really think that the three million yuan in compensation was easy to take? Some money was too hot to handle!

Originally, she could have pocketed the three million, but she ended up in jail because of her obsession with Xiao Yi. In fact, she had done this kind of thing before, but it never came to fruition. Who knew she would hit a wall this time?

This time she admitted defeat!

But fortunately, she still got one million, plus the half million paid by her employer. When she is released from prison a year later, she will have nearly two million in savings, so this trip will not be in vain.

Huang Keren walked out of the prison in a state of despair, feeling that the sky was covered with a layer of gray. One million, her one million, was it just going down the drain like this!

Huang Keren, indignant, returned to the clubhouse that was being renovated, but unexpectedly found workers busy inside. She wondered: Wasn't the work stopped here? Why did it start again? As if she understood something in an instant, she rushed into the scene.

Huang Keren grabbed a worker who was carrying bricks and said anxiously and angrily, "Didn't they say they would stop working?"

The worker looked at the woman holding his arm tightly, feeling puzzled, but still explained: "Girl, the work here has not stopped."

"But you were clearly not here the past two days! You weren't here at noon today either!" Huang Keren asked.

"Oh, that's because the designer modified the design plan two days ago, so we temporarily stopped work for two days." The worker explained with a smile.

Huang Keren couldn't help laughing after hearing the worker's explanation. After all, she had invested one million yuan here. She hurriedly asked, "Where is your person in charge now?"

The worker was a little confused by the sudden enthusiasm and took a step back. Then he shouted to a man not far away: "Manager Jiao, someone is looking for you."

Manager Jiao turned around and looked at Huang Keren. Although he didn't know her, he still walked over politely and asked, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

Huang Keren said quickly: "I invested one million in this beauty salon, but the person who contacted me was arrested. I want to know who is the person in charge here now. Can you give me his contact information?"

After hearing this, Manager Jiao looked at Huang Keren with a puzzled look on his face. He explained, "Miss, I think you may have some misunderstandings. Our boss is the sole investor here and has no other partners. This is not a beauty salon, but a restaurant."

Huang Keren looked at Manager Jiao and asked in disbelief, "Restaurant? That's impossible. Is your boss called Michelle?"

Manager Jiao smiled and shook his head and replied, "No, my boss is not Michelle, her last name is Zhong."

When Huang Keren heard Manager Jiao’s answer, she panicked instantly, then her eyes went dark and she lost consciousness.

Manager Jiao felt a headache when he saw this, and quickly took out his cell phone, dialing 120 for emergency assistance and 110 for the police. After all, there were surveillance cameras here and the situation could be clearly seen.
