<div style="text-align: justify;">Colette sighed softly when Paul let out that depressed laughter. It sounded like they would have some sad times there, reviewing what Rich had done to harm other people. <br/><br/>~“I may ask for some later, but I fear all that we’ll discuss here will be enough to keep us awake”~, Colette replied to Paul’s comment about asking for some coffee. Of course, she didn’t know all Rich had done, but she was pretty sure that she wouldn’t hear good things about the agent. <br/><br/>After this comment, the young woman prepared to take notes. Hearing that Rich had two families made Colette’s jaw drop. ~“Two full families?”~, she asked, surprised and somewhat disgusted. ~“With children and all?”~, the young woman completed, baffled.<br/><br/>And he still had affairs? Colette blinked a few times. ~“This man is a dirty pig”~, she murmured to herself, unable to keep her feelings quiet, and feeling more and more anger towards Rich.. <br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;">*****************************</div><br/><br/>The scariest thing about Marie was that she was actually a kind soul - in her own way. She really wanted to help Shane and make him happy… and she would stop at nothing to accomplish her objectives. <br/><br/>Her initial plan was to talk to Diane, and convince her to get back together with Shane. It was obvious that he was the best man for her. And he deserved to be happy with the woman he loved. Should she not listen to reason, Marie would have to be more persuasive. But she would find a way to make everything right. <br/><br/>For now, though, all she wanted was to go to bed. <br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;">*****************************</div><br/><br/>At the café, nobody had seen what was about to happen coming. It seemed like a tense conversation, but nobody had expected it to come to blows. It took a time for security to be called, and it would take them a while to pull the two men apart.<br/><br/>As it always happened, the security of the hotel didn’t even need to ask many questions. Martin was well dressed and famous. Shane was poorly dressed and a nobody. And of course, the exchange between the two men before the blows and the comments all around make clear to them that Shane was in the wrong.<br/><br/>Since the hotel was always watched, it wouldn’t take too long for a <span style="font-style: italic">Gendarme</span> (an armed police officer) to materialize out of nowhere and start moving to arrest Shane. Those Americans came into their beautiful city to start fights, the police officer thought to himself while attempting to handcuff the young man.</div>
