Female Novel
Chapter 2851
"When the police come, all you have to do is hand her over to the police, and they'll decide whetherLeia has committed a crime." Jack sounded stern. He did not allow any change of plans even when hewas not at home.
Leia should be punished.
The public opinion of Leia all over the internet could not affect him or Queenie, so Leia's imprisonmentwould not affect his career either.
Even if it did, it would still be honorable for him to retire at this age.
Jack's only regret from retiring would be not being able to serve the people anymore.
Queenie took a deep breath, and her eyes darkened at the thought of what would happen if she sentLeia to the hospital.
She could not let Jack fall into such a situation.
“Okay, I'll stay home," Queenie promised.
After hanging up, Queenie continued sitting on the sofa without asking about what was going onupstairs.
As long as she did not go upstairs, Leia would not constantly be on her mind. That was what sheplanned to do now. Leia would not be able to affect her as long as she was out of sight.
Upstairs, Leia scratched the door. "I want to go to the hospital."
Surabaya bit the black rubber band and used her hand as a comb as she put her hair into a highponytail. "Ms. Norman, why don't you take a break from all the yelling?"
Leia slapped the door hard, and the tingling pain spread all over her palm.
"I'll make you pay for doing this to me!" she threatened viciously.
Surabaya was unfazed. "If you don't feel well, stop making a fuss. The family doctor will be here soon."
Leia was silent.
Surabaya raised her eyebrows. Was she playing dead to trick her into opening the door?
Even if she opened the door, Leia would not be able to walk out of the house's gate.
Not to mention, Surabaya was not easily fooled.
She had gone through strict and comprehensive training under Rain. Even if Leia was deliberately notmaking any noise, she would still be able to hear the sound of her breathing with her sharp hearing.
Moreover, Surabaya could even determine her vital signs based on her breathing.
She put her ear to the door to make sure that Leia was breathing normally. Leia was not speaking, andneither was she.
Besides, Leia already hated her, so there was no point ruffling her feathers.
The maid went upstairs again with some fruit. “Ms. Surabaya, these fruits are sent by Mrs. Norman."
“Thanks." Surabaya took them. The Norman family had never mistreated her.
Although she was guarding Leia, the Norman family still entertained her with good food.
The maid heard movement in the bedroom, but she did not hear Leia's voice, so she asked Surabayaworriedly, “W-Why is there no sound?"
Surabaya said nonchalantly, “Perhaps she's tired from yelling, so she doesn't want to talk anymore."
The maid frowned, unconvinced. Leia used to be able to make noise the whole day, and it had notbeen long since she woke up...
She remembered her saying that she was not feeling well. Did she faint in there?
The maid did not say anything, but Surabaya understood her concern, so she knocked on the door andsaid, “Ms. Norman, today's fruits are cherries. Do you want some? They're big and sweet."
The maid tried to listen to the situation behind the door.
Leia was still silent.
The maid asked worriedly, “Did she actually faint?"
Surabaya sneered as she popped the cherry into her mouth.
The imported cherries were big, sweet, and juicy.
The maid's face was full of doubts as she did not understand what was going on.
Surabaya spat out the seed and swallowed the flesh of the sweet cherry before explaining, “Ms.Norman is fine."
“But she.." The maid knew that Leia could be trying to pull a trick, but something might have actuallyhappened to her too.
How would Surabaya know that Leia was fine if she did not go in?
“When one encounters a bear that's not hungry, they may be able to escape by playing dead, but Ms.Norman is making a big mistake by thinking that I'm a bear." Surabaya picked up a few cherries and
played with them in her hand as she reminded the person inside, “Ms. Norman, unless you can holdyour breath for two minutes, don't try to play dead. I can hear your breathing, and it sounds strong too."
After a few seconds, Surabaya said mockingly, “Hey, Ms. Norman, why is your breathing so heavy? Areyou angry? The doctor said stress isn't good for the body. You should take note."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a bang from behind the door.
The maid guessed that Leia had hit the door with something.
She gave Surabaya a big thumbs up. She was so good that she could even tell from Leia's breathingwhether she was unconscious.
Not to mention, she could hear it from far away.
Surabaya had another cherry. “Ms. Norman, the cherries taste great. Are you sure you don't wantsome?"
Inwardly, she thought, 'If Leia doesn't have any now, it'll be a long time before the next time she gets tohave some.'
"F*ck off!" A roar came from the bedroom. The maid felt relieved when she heard the angry voice. Leiashould be fine.
A sick person would not be able to roar like that.
"Ms. Norman, please bear with me. Dr. Cairn will be here in a bit," said the maid through gritted teeth.
Inside, Leia responded by hitting something again.
The maid shook her head and said to Surabaya, "Ms. Surabaya, there are many more fruitsdownstairs, so just let me know if you need anything."
"Sure, thank you," Surabaya said cheerfully.
Although guarding Leia was boring, eating good food at the Norman family's house was much betterthan what Anita was doing.
At least she did not have to take care of an unconscious person.
The maid went back downstairs and reported to Queenie, "From the sound of Ms. Norman's voice, shedoesn't seem to be feeling unwell."
"That's good..." Queenie nodded. The thought of Leia's attempt to deceive them by pretending to beunconscious was disturbing.
Leia's action reminded her of all her previous doings.
For all types of reasons, Leia had lied and gone to many extremes.
Queenie did not know if it was the evilness engraved in her soul, her innate behavior, or if she becamelike this after meeting those people.
No matter what it was, it showed that she and Jack had failed to educate her.novelbin
Perhaps, it was not them who failed.
Children were free after growing up, and parents would not be able to control them at their age anyway.
Queenie recalled that after Leia entered the entertainment industry, she found success with the roadpaved by her family and became a big star, beloved by everyone.
However, step by step, she walked toward her demise. Now, she was hated by almost everyone.
Leia's previous works were also taken off the shelves as she was labeled as a tainted star.
Queenie thought to herself, 'Did Leia become like this because the entertainment industry is toocomplicated? In that environment, she met those people and.."
While Queenie was spiraling, the doorbell rang.
