"Mrs. Norman, keeping Ms. Norman locked up like that isn't a good idea. She has poor health, and we don't even know if she's
taking her medicine properly," the maid expressed her concern.
The pills were pushed through the hole in the door every day. However, did Leia really take them?
"Ah, Mr. Noman didn't say anything about it, so we can't release her now." Queenie felt troubled. Leia's incessant use of vulgar
language gave her a headache as well.
After Leia returned the supplements she had sent, Queenie became disheartened and decided to follow Jack's advice.
Jack said that he wanted to keep Leia in the Norman Residence. Queenie agreed with him as she understood his intentions. She
forced herself to muster the determination to do so.
The maid could not help but express her thoughts, "I wonder how long Mr. Norman intends to keep Ms. Norman locked up."
Queenie remained silent.
Jack told her that keeping Leia confined was necessary as they waited for Luke to collect the evidence. The evidence would
prove whether Leia was truly involved in this matter.
If Leia was involved in this, she would be sent to the police station.
If she had nothing to do with it, she could continue staying at the apartment, and the Norman family would still take care of her.
The maid was unaware of this. She only thought that Leia had displeased Jack and that was why she was being punished.
As Queenie fell silent, the maid suggested, "Mrs. Norman, why don't you talk to Mr. Norman and let Ms. Norman out once she's
been punished enough?"
Queenie looked at the maid and shook her head repeatedly.
Worried that she might secretly release Leia, Queenie reminded her, "This is Mr. Norman's decision.
Don't secretly let her out."
"Mrs. Norman, you can rest assured. I won't do anything without Mr. Norman's orders, and besides, Ms. Surabaya is watching
too," reassured the maid. The maid heard them saying that Surabaya was Leia's caretaker at the hospital on the first day she
returned home.
Now, Surabaya was standing outside Leia's bedroom like a bodyguard.
No matter how badly Leia scolded her, she remained unfazed as though she was used to being scolded.
"Surabaya is dedicated to her job. By the way, I heard the weather forecast saying there'll be a slight temperature drop tonight.
Make sure to give her a thicker blanket," Queenie remembered and instructed the maid.
She had initially arranged for Surabaya to stay in the guest room, but she insisted on sleeping on the sofa to keep an eye on
Leia. There was nothing Queenie could do about it.
"Understood, Mrs. Norman," replied the maid as she noted the task assigned to her.
Night fell, and Luca walked out of the bathroom after showering. Luke was already leaning against the edge of the bed with a
laptop resting on his thigh.
The room was brightly lit, accentuating the man's features. She could not help but glance at him a few more times.
"I have two recordings for you to listen to. Come and sit here." Luke patted the spot on the bed.
"What recordings?" Luca's curiosity was piqued as she walked over and sat down.
Luke took her hand and pressed it against his lips, giving it a kiss.
Luca's face reddened, and she tried to pull her hand away, but he held it tightly.
She pouted playfully and said, "Didn't you say there are recordings?"
Luke smiled and pressed the play button.
Mandy's voice came through the phone. Her voice was trembling in fear as she said, "My name's Mandy..."
Luca furrowed her brows as she listened to the recording, which confessed Matysh's involvement in the hired hitman case.
There was also the accusation against Leia. Mandy also provided the police with more evidence regarding the case.
"And here's the other one." Luke played the next recording.
It was a conversation. After a couple of lines, Luca immediately recognized Mandy's and Matysh's voices.
After hearing the content, Luca deduced, "This must be Mandy asking Matysh for the money. Is this after the incident at the
Norman Residence?"
"Yes. It was after you and Rain took care of the people sent by the underworld who fell into the hands of the police. Mandy went
to ask Matysh for money and recorded this conversation," explained Luke. It was all Mandy's confession.
Rain was quite surprised when she received this recording. Hence, she immediately sent it to him.
With this recording and Mandy's confession, they could put Matysh, Mandy, and Leia all behind bars.
“This time, Ms. Norman..." Luca furrowed her brows again, hoping that Leia would face appropriate punishment.
However, would Jack and Queenie really let her go to prison?
"She will definitely go to prison," Luke answered her question.
Leia had long lost Jack's affection. Queenie was also disappointed when she found out about Leia's involvement in this matter.
"Will Ms. Norman's imprisonment have an impact on the Norman family?" Luca asked again.
"No, don't worry," Luke shook his head. After he had Jack's permission, he had been orchestrating a campaign online.
Jack was Jack, and Leia was the daughter he kindly adopted. However, Leia no longer deserved the love of the Norman family.
Therefore, Jack and Leia were two separate individuals.
Jack raised Leia and provided her with many resources in the past, fulfilling his obligations.
Luca did not pay much attention to the online comments, but when she heard that it would not affect Jack, she let out a sigh of
relief.
Jack was an upright official. The Norman family's accumulated wealth was from the old master; it was not built by Jack himself.
If such a virtuous official who served the people were to be dragged down by Leia, it would be unfair!
Luca looked at Luke with teary eyes and asked, "When will Rain hand this recording over to the police?"
He had entrusted Rain to handle these matters now as Gale had been posing as Marcos and could not extricate himself. He was
unable to do many things.
"Mandy has been held for a few days and has some rope marks on her body," said Luke. Although Rain was the one handling
these matters, she reported every detail. "We'll wait a couple more days before sending her to the police."
Once they sent her to the police station, Mandy would be sentenced, and the matter concerning the Norman family would be
completely resolved.
Luca let out a sigh of relief. Thankfully, it was not her who had caused trouble for Jack and Queenie.
When Jack and Queenie were frightened and hospitalized, Luca had always felt guilty, believing that she had led those people
into the Norman Residence.
However, Mandy's recording made her realize that if it were not for Leia's malicious intentions, Jack and Queenie might not have
been implicated in this matter at all.
It was Jack's home. Who would dare to cause trouble there?
"One more thing," added Luke as he looked into her teary eyes. He leaned forward slightly, closing the gap between them.
"Huh?" Luca looked at him in confusion.
"Ambrose confessed as well. He said that throwing acid at you was an act of revenge, but it was also orchestrated by someone.
We followed the lead and discovered that the person behind it was Leia," said Luke. As soon as Rain looked into Ambrose's
bank account, they found something.
Even though Leia carefully transferred the money multiple times before it ended up in Ambrose's account, she transferred it at
the same time, which aroused Rain's suspicion.
Although it could not be considered conclusive evidence of their collusion, it was a fact that Leia had colluded with Matysh, so
she was definitely going to prison. Ambrose would also be imprisoned for attacking Luca with acid.
Knowing that the person behind Ambrose would also face imprisonment, the investigation into this matter ceased.
Luca let out a long sigh, expressing her long-standing question, "Why did she cling to me and not let go?"
