Usually, Victorique would have ran her mouth, especially in situations such as this, but those other people whom have tried in the past to take her away from her family were always in it for the money. They were all predictable, and their fumbling actions generally proved how desperate and clueless they were. This, this was entirely different. Never had she ever come across an individual as calculating as this. Throughout a majority of the woman's speech, the young lady remained silent, not even bothering to offer any form of witty retort.
The last thing she needs is a stranger bursting into the scene and telling her that her parents have lied to her throughout her entire life. Victorique hasn't even seen nor heard of this woman's name before this day, who does she think she is to defame her parents to this extent? Was Fleur a spy from a rival company? Most likely. In all likelihood, that woman was just spouting trash to buy her comrades some time, but really, the more the aspiring novelist listened in, the more it sounded like a plot to a cliche action film where the protagonist is a time traveller of sorts, fighting against other time travellers for the sake of restoring peace to the land.
She laughed. After hearing all that, how can you expect her not to? There is absolutely no way that those words can be anything other than complete gibberish. "Please, by all means, do continue. I'd love hearing more of your fictional tales, even though sci-fi thrillers aren't really my cup of tea, but to be a successful novelist, I'd have to take elements in from various genres. Come on, tell me more. Enlighten me with zat delusional knowledge of yours."
