The next morning, I arrived at Zenon Police Station with Theo accompanying me.
Queenie was temporarily detained for kidnapping and wounding with intent.
Inside the visiting room, she could not hide her anger when she saw me through the glass.
She grabbed the glass with her fingernails like crazy, and I covered my stomach and shrank back. I was just afraid she would scare my child.
Two police officers restrained her and forced her to sit down.
I picked up the phone on the table and mouthed Nicky's name before she picked it up.
"Have you come to see me at rock bottom, Wanda? You got your wish now. Seeing me become this way, you should be ecstatic, am I right?"
Queenie still had a violent look on her face. She still hated me very much, but I was still rather calm. I looked at her indifferently, "Nicky was slashed on the cheek by your knife and it’s likely to leave a scar."
Hearing this news, Queenie was stunned for a moment, then she smiled indifferently. "This is her own fault. She rushed over to block the knife for your child. Otherwise, she wouldn't have gotten hurt.
You're the one who should be feeling guilty, Wanda." She smiled, her tone sounded arrogant.
I nodded at her noncommittally. "Yes, I do feel quite guilty. However, Queenie, you've forgotten that Nicky was the one who helped you get promoted. You really have zero conscience.”
She sneered. "All she did was promote me to be a small team leader and then what? She still didn't say a word when you asked me to leave the company."
"The only thing you remember is her making you a team leader, but you forgot how she took care of you."
When Queenie heard this, she was obviously stunned. Her eyes suddenly lost focus as she thought back to the past.
