Who says I’m spending the Liu family’s money?!

Liu Yiyi coldly stared at Manager Li and Lawyer Wang, a flicker of chill flashing through her eyes.

Back when she was the heiress of the Liu family, this hotel had always been her first choice, and Manager Li was her exclusive attendant.

He had always been diligent and greeted her with a smile, and she had contributed countless achievements to him.

But now that she had fallen from grace, Manager Li’s ugly true colors immediately surfaced.

Only then did she see clearly how two-faced he really was!

Seeing Liu Yiyi silent, Manager Li arrogantly thought he had found her weakness.

He stepped forward, his tone growing more aggressive: “Miss Liu, you should understand your current situation. If I were you, I’d move out quickly. After all, this presidential suite isn’t something you can afford now!”

Inwardly, the manager sneered—what was he pretending? By now, everyone knew Liu Yiyi was a fake heiress.

And yet she still had the audacity to squander the Liu family’s money to stay in the presidential suite. How ridiculous!

Liu Yiyi’s gaze suddenly turned icy. “Manager Li, why do you still have time to meddle in my affairs?”

“Do you think you’re clever? Leaking guest information at will, bringing outsiders to harass VIP clients, knocking on their doors?”

“Is this the level of service your five-star hotel provides?”

Li’s smile froze on his face. Before he could respond, Liu Yiyi continued:

“I paid a premium to stay in the presidential suite precisely to enjoy privacy and security. But what do you do? You casually reveal my room information to outsiders and even bring unidentified people to knock on my door? Is this your so-called ‘prestigious service’?”

“I could call your hotel’s CEO right now. How do you think he would view your behavior?”

Manager Li instantly paled. He hadn’t expected Liu Yiyi to have the nerve to call him out.

Normally, someone exposed as penniless would slink away from the hotel in shame.

How could she be so shameless as to threaten him instead?

Seeing Liu Yiyi pull out her phone with swift determination, she said, “Should I call now? Want to hear what he has to say?”

Manager Li panicked, sweat beading on his forehead. “Miss Liu, you’ve misunderstood… we just…”

He looked helplessly to Lawyer Wang, silently begging him to speak up.

Lawyer Wang was stunned by Liu Yiyi’s move but, catching Manager Li’s look, quickly recovered.

Anger surged within him as he sneered, “Miss Liu, you’re really aggressive. Now the problem lies with you!”

Liu Yiyi turned her gaze to him immediately. “Lawyer Wang, right? I’m curious—how did you obtain my personal information? Does that align with legal ethics?”

Lawyer Wang sneered, “Miss Liu, we act according to the law. Everything I’ve done is legal and proper. You spent Liu family money, so we froze your card and obtained your address…”

“This is your lawyer’s letter.”

Liu Yiyi casually took the letter, calmly opening the envelope.

Reading its contents, she almost laughed in disbelief.

Her stepmother was truly ruthless.

She had wondered why her stepmother hadn’t frozen her card sooner—now she knew it was a trap.

Any money she spent in the past three days would be used against her in court!

And knowing her own nature, she would never stop indulging in lavish spending.

Perfect—just what her stepmother wanted.

This so-called kind stepmother was really out to ruin her.

“Oh, so that’s how it is,” Liu Yiyi chuckled lightly, looking up at them both. “You’re here to collect the charges from my hotel stay these past three days, right?”

Lawyer Wang was momentarily taken aback but straightened up immediately. “That’s right! Miss Liu, you are no longer part of the Liu family, yet you continue to squander their money. This is illegal, and we have the right to—”

“Wait,” Liu Yiyi raised a hand, interrupting him softly. “Who told you I used the Liu family’s money?”

“You… what? You didn’t use the Liu family’s money?” Lawyer Wang’s eyes filled with disbelief.

“That’s impossible!”

Leaning against the door, Liu Yiyi’s eyes glinted with sarcasm. “Why impossible?”

“Do you really think that once I left the Liu family, I should have nothing? Or that I should starve on the streets?”

Her voice remained calm but carried a faint, hardly noticeable chill. “I want to ask, Lawyer Wang, on what grounds do you assume I used the Liu family’s money? And by what authority did you freeze my accounts without consent?”

Cold sweat broke out on Lawyer Wang’s forehead.

He never expected what seemed like an open-and-shut case to take such a turn.

He suddenly realized he might have made a grave mistake.

Liu Yiyi said calmly, “Lawyer Wang, go back and tell that so-called kind stepmother that her schemes have failed. Not only have I not used a single cent of the Liu family’s money, but I’m going to sue them for illegally freezing my accounts and violating my legal rights.”

Lawyer Wang’s face turned deathly pale. He knew this time he had hit a wall.

Who could have guessed Liu Yiyi hadn’t touched the Liu family’s money at all?

At that moment, Liu Yiyi’s gaze shifted to Manager Li beside them. “And you, leaking guest information and deliberately bringing people to harass me…”

A mocking smile curved her lips. “You just wanted to see me fall, to personally drive me out?”

Cold sweat poured down Manager Li’s face. Now he realized the enormity of his mistake!

This Miss Liu hadn’t spent a single cent of the Liu family’s money, yet he had assumed she was down and out, rushing to humiliate her. If the president found out about this, he couldn’t imagine the consequences!

She was a genuine VIP client—how could he have acted so recklessly? He regretted it deeply.

Fearing he might be fired, he immediately slapped his own face in public. “I’m sorry, Miss Liu. It was all my fault!”

Liu Yiyi gave him a cold glance. “Afraid now? Too late.”

She took out her phone and dialed a number in front of them. “Hello, is this a reporter? Want an exclusive? How a five-star hotel treats its VIP clients… Yes, meet me in the hotel lobby in half an hour.”

Upon hearing this, Manager Li’s face went pale as paper.

He knew that if this got out, not only would his career be over, but the entire hotel’s reputation would suffer a devastating blow.

“Miss Liu, please… I beg you, show mercy…” Manager Li pleaded, his voice trembling, almost on his knees.

Liu Yiyi looked at him coldly, then suddenly said, “Fine. Now get him out of here.”

Manager Li was stunned but quickly recovered.

Ignoring Lawyer Wang’s protests and shouts, he began forcibly pushing him toward the exit.

“Manager Li, are you crazy? Do you even know who I have backing me?”
