Queenie sat on the sofa. Leia's handcuffed hands stung her eyes.

When Leia was still young, she personally taught her how to write the names of their family members. She even taught her how to play the piano and draw.

Queenie poured all her hopes and maternal love into her.

Everything Leia could do with her fine wrists was her pride.

Yet, when did that pride turn into what it was now?

Queenie's heart ached, and her eyes immediately turned red. "Oh, Leia."

As Leia looked at Queenie's expression of compassion, she felt a wave of disgust in her heart. How fake it was!

Was she pretending to put on a show in front of the police? Would it make Leia seem even more unforgivable?

Even though Leia felt a strong aversion deep down inside, she did not reveal her true feelings on her face. Her eyes welled up with tears as she said, "Mom, save me. I don't want to go to the police station."

Queenie's heart throbbed with pain. At that precise moment, she almost asked the police officers to let go of her daughter!

However, the recording Jack played for her yesterday, along with all the evidence presented...

Queenie suppressed the urge to do so. If she were to do that, she would ruin Jack's plan and tarnish his reputation. She made the choice to prioritize her husband over her adopted daughter. "Leia, cooperate with the police investigation. They won't accuse any good person."

Francis heard what Queenie said and slightly nodded in agreement.

Queenie was right. They would not falsely accuse any good person, nor would they let any criminals go free.

Initially, the case involving the Norman family could have been closed with Matysh involved with a criminal syndicate, but so many other people were involved now. Hence, they had to take it seriously.

Leia bit her lip. Things had come this far, yet Queenie still refused to help her.

She thought about how Queenie had let these police officers in. Leia was even detained her for so many days, yet Queenie remained indifferent. Leia knew that Queenie's so-called maternal love was utterly fake!

Leia glared at Queenie with resentment. Then, she was escorted away from the Norman Residence by the police.
