Under the Heiress' Facade novel Chapter 243

"Yes, I'm out. But Aury, there doesn't seem to be much difference between me being released on bail and not," Queenie remarked sarcastically.

Aurora gently advised, "You can't be too greedy. At the very least, your release has weakened your family's public opinion crisis."

Queenie gritted her teeth as she thought of the two policemen guarding the villa. "They sent police to guard my house. Are you sure they're trying to weaken public opinion rather than increase it?"

"Is that so? I didn't expect them to do that."

Queenie grew outraged when she listened to Aurora's lukewarm tone. Aurora remained calm simply because she didn't get involved in the trouble.

"Aury, don't forget what I did for you back then. Do you think you'd be able to sit still if something were to happen to me?" Queenie said solemnly.

"Queenie Killian, are you threatening me?"

Queenie noticed that Aurora's tone had shifted.

Aurora was no longer as polite as before. She didn't even address Queenie as "Aunt" but called her by her full name.

Queenie clenched her fists. She couldn't complain because she still needed Aurora's help. So, she had no choice but to soften her tone.

"I don't dare to, but you can't let me suffer so much humiliation, right? After all, I'm part of the Killians."

"What do you want?"

Queenie demanded unceremoniously, "I want the police to leave. I want my freedom back!"

Aurora remained silent for a moment before responding, "That's a bit difficult. It's possible to pay bail for false accusations and bribes, but it's difficult to do so in murder cases.

"Although the Killians have power as the head of the four influential families, we still have to abide by the laws."
