Billionaire and His Scheming Beauty

Chapter 50: Do You Want to Know Why I Hit You?

It was seven in the morning.

When Fleur went downstairs, she saw Camille dusting up. Olivier was nowhere in sight. He must have

left early.

"Miss, what would you like for breakfast?"

"Anything will do."

After playing with Lulu for a while, Fleur ate her breakfast. News of Olivier and Virginie was still making

the headlines on her phone.

Along with all sorts of envy and praise from the public.

Fleur clicked her tongue and suddenly felt the pain worsen in her hand. She would have to go see the

doctor.

......

Virginie sat by her bed in the hospital. Her injuries were actually not that serious, just a mild knock on

her head while she was hooked up on wires which caused some dizziness. Besides that she only

suffered mild bruises here and there.

Her pale features depicted just how much sleep she got last night - none.

Mathilde came into her ward wearing a mask and a cap. Virginie smiled the moment she saw her. "If it

isn't the celebrity singer herself. Come to visit?"

Mathilde took off her mask, face revealed. "Yes, this celebrity singer came all the way to check on you.

How's your injury? Shouldn't be too bad, right?"

"Yeah, it's not too bad."

"That's good. Hmm? Isn't Mr. Martinez around?"

Virginie's beautiful face went dim for a moment but quickly recovered. "He's just busy, being the

president with such big responsibilities, he has to deal with many things every day. Since I wasn't that

hurt I just told him to leave."

Mathilde clearly saw the dull expression Virginie sported moments ago and quickly understood. She sat

down. "The night Young Master Waldo asked me to sing for them at the club, Fleur Leroy arrived in our

room a little bit later. She went straight into Olivier's arms the moment she entered, as if they were very

close."

She even admitted she was Stunning's owner. Later she said she was Olivier's woman. Did you get

cucked or what?"

Virginie did not expect that, so for a moment she did not know what to say. She and Olivier had been

estranged since Fleur appeared.

If it was in the past, Olivier would not have left last night and would have even checked on her closely

in the morning.

"What are you talking about? Olivier and I are not lovers, much less this cuckolding. If word gets out, it

would ruin his reputation."

"Really? Who doesn't know you and Olivier are in that kind of relationship? But now that's changed.

Speculations are growing on that." Mathilde quickly pitched her analysis of the current situation.

Virginie closed her eyes. It was only early morning and already she was anxious and jumpy. She

picked up her phone again and saw there was still no missed call or text message.

She could not help but feel more anxious.

"Don't worry about it. I have a plan."

Mathilde gently pinched Virginie's face. "You incite envy from many, practically everyone's admired

goddess. Careful you don't...escalate things the wrong way."

Virginie had always been highly respected in the media. She had been in the entertainment circle for

two two three years and never accepted interviews. People could only imagine the romance between

her and Olivier.

But now Fleur had showed up...how could Virginie lose to some nightclub owner?

After Mathilde left, Virginie called her father. "Dad, could you help me out? I'm going to buy the

Stunning Club."

She would be the club's owner. No one knew who it's current owner was anyway. In the future, Virginie

would be known as its only owner.

That breaking news between The Stunning Club's owner and Olivier...would turn out to just be Virginie

then...only her from the start till the end.

......

An hour later, Virginie was woken up from her sleep.

She opened her eyes and saw her nurse.

Fleur was beside her.

Virginie slowly sat up. Her face was bone white, more haggard than sick.

With her long hair flowing freely and her eloquently placed facial features, Virginie did indeed have

some charm.

She was once even on par with Odette Durand, Y City's top beauty. Unfortunately for the both of them,

Fleur was now here.

"What are you doing here?" Virginie asked after the nurse went out.

Fleur exuded a strikingly cold grace in a deep skirt and black jacket. There was an obvious

exquisiteness to her casual look.

She stood by the bed with her hands in her pockets. "I'm here to see you."

"Hmph, you're just here to make a fool of me. I haven't gotten even with you for setting me up yet."

"I'm always waiting for you to get even with me." Fleur stepped forward, staring straight at Virginie.

"Virginie Lopez, didn't I say I get irritated when you call Olivier?"

"Well I don't like you around him either. Would you just disappear then?"

Fleur bent down, face menacingly in hers. She was not really being fierce, yet Virginie grew defensive.

"What are you doing?"

"Do you know?" Fleur's eyes were black as snake scales, coupled with her sharp features, it made

quite an intimidatingly scary look.

Virginie's breath stuttered in fear.

"Ever since the first time I saw you, I've always really wanted to do something."

"...What is it?"

"To slap you."

"How dare you!"

Smack!

As soon as Virginie finished speaking, a slap landed on her face. Her pale skin bloomed red with that

single hit.

"Fleur Leroy, you..." Virginie's anger dissipated in seconds with the slap, replaced with shock and

dumbfoundedness. No one had ever hit her.

"Do you want to know why I hit you?" Though Fleur's gaze was light, they carried a sharpness equal to

blades. She had worn gloves due to her injury, and the gloves' material had added to the friction in the

slap on Virginie's face.

"Because you need a lesson."

Virginie felt anger rise within her. She wanted to hit Fleur back, but as soon as she raised her hand

Fleur caught it in a tight grip. Virginie did not know a woman could have strength like that. Her arm

turned numb with pain.

"There are many like you who love someone while having another person being putty in your hands.

Unfortunately, you're not as lucky as everyone else. You met me."

Every word that came out of Fleur's mouth bit like fierce wind. Virginie had never met such a a terrifying

situation before.

"Why...why did you hit me?"

"Because you piss me off!" Fleur tossed Virginie's hand away harshly.

Virginie's body shook from Fleur's strength. She clenched her fists and said, "Do you who you're

dealing with? Even if I don't have Olivier's protection, I can still easily kick you out of Y City. Do you

dare mess with me?"

"I don't care about the Lopez family. That slap..." Fleur bent down again, showing Virginie the deadly

hate in her eyes. "...was for you even before I met you."
