Chapter 394
Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again
Chapter 394 Best Actress When Rina saw Sonia and Zane, she naturally felt a pang of guilt and fear. Without realizing what she was doing, she took a step back and lowered her head to avoid making eye contact with them. She was afraid to look at them, which was typical behavior of someone who was guilty. Zane was positive that Rina was the one who had attacked Sonia.
He eyed her coldly. âWhy are you hiding? Shouldnât you greet your bosses when you see them?â
Upon hearing his words, Rina felt a sharp pain in her chest, and she lowered her head even more. I canât believe I bumped into Sonia and Zane here.
Iâd be able to handle the situation if I bumped into Sonia alone, but Zane... Rina bit her lip as a strong sense of panic filled her insides.
She had feelings for Zane. She had fallen for him when she met him after she first came to Seafield. It was her first time seeing a man who looked so gorgeous and perfect. However, she knew that she was no match for him and that heâd never fall for a girl like her. So, she had no choice but to conceal her feelings so that he wouldnât find out about it.
Although she had never dreamt of being with him, she still hoped that she would leave an impression on him. In order to do so, she spent most of her time learning all sorts of skills to improve herself. She hoped that she would be able to change his perception of her someday. She wanted him to see her as an elegant swan instead of an ugly duckling who came from some village. Maybe I would match up to his standards someday. Maybe I would have the right to be with him someday, right?
However, after Zane found out that she had harmed Sonia, things were clear from his icy voice and attitude. He obviously despised her. Rina couldnât bring herself to accept his hatredâshe was fine if Sonia or anyone else hated her, but she simply couldnât accept the fact that Zane hated her as well.
At that thought, tears welled up in Rinaâs eyes. She looked up and stared at Zane. âMr. Coleman, Iââ
âAlright, Zane. Letâs go in for now. We can talk in the station,â Sonia uttered all of a sudden. Sonia had interrupted Rinaâs words with a harsh tone.
Zane nodded and stepped forward to push Soniaâs wheelchair. âYou can wait for us in the car,â he said to Rebecca.
âOkay.â Rebecca nodded. She was fine with that arrangement as she had never been fond of police stations. She had too much blood on her hands.
Even though it was all blood of the dead, she would still feel guilty if she entered a police station.
Zane wheeled Sonia into the station without looking at Rina at all. Rina stood still and bit her lower lip as she stared at Zane and Soniaâs backs, then clenched her fists silently.
Meanwhile, Rebecca lit up a slim cigarette and took a long, tasty drag in the car. She eyed Rina with a slight smirk on her face. I canât believe this woman fell for Zane, she thought as she curled her lips upward. How interesting!
Rina seemed to have sensed Rebeccaâs eyes on her, for she turned around to glance in Rebeccaâs direction. Rebecca had eyes that seemed to peer into oneâs soul, and Rina was flustered when she locked eyes with Rebecca. Rina hastily lowered her head before hurrying into the station.
When she got to the interrogation room, Rina found Zane, Sonia, and Alice waiting for her. Her expression darkened as she realized what had happened. So, Alice was the one who snitched on me. I just donât know how the police managed to find me.
âZane!â Sonia tugged on Zaneâs sleeve, and Zane looked down at her. âWhat is it?â
âHow did Taylor respond when she saw Alice?â Sonia asked in a hushed tone. The police had sent officers to bring Alice over from Tim. Since Alice was just a scapegoat and not the actual person who attacked Sonia, Sonia told Tim that he didnât need to let Alice try the medication. Sonia simply got him to have Alice locked up temporarily.
However, she heard that Tim had locked Alice up in the hospitalâs morgue. He had ordered her to keep watch on the dead bodies for a few days, and she was thoroughly shocked after spending a few days there. She no longer seemed like she was in her right mind after that.
âI didnât see much of a response from Rina,â Zane murmured as he glanced at Sonia.
Sonia pressed her lips together. âIt seems like her acting skills are pretty good.â The police officer then pointed to a seat that was meant for the suspect. âThatâs your seat,â he said to Rina.
Rina looked over to see that her seat was right beside Aliceâs, and she went over to sit down without saying anything else. Meanwhile, Sonia and Zane stayed beside the few officers. The chief officer was the first to speak. âDo you know the woman beside you, Rina?â
Rinaâs gaze flickered before she turned to look at Alice. Rina feigned a puzzled look as she shook her head. âNo. Iâve never seen her before.â
âYouâre lying!â Alice widened her eyes in disbelief. After being cooped up in the hospital for the past few days, Alice was aware that she had been hypnotized. She came clean about the whole situation after that. Initially, she was worried that her son wouldnât be saved after she explained the situation, but Tim told her that the person who got her to be a scapegoat hadnât paid for her sonâs medical bills even after a few days had passed. She was furious when she heard about this.
Fortunately, Tim had offered to help her apply for charity funds that could support her sonâs medical bills. He did so with the condition that she would point out and accuse the person who had gotten her to be the scapegoat. Alice was willing to agree to Timâs terms for the sake of her son. But now, this woman who got me to take the blame is claiming that she doesnât know me!
Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again âIâm not lying. I donât know you at all.â Rina blinked a few times as she put on an innocent expression. Right after that, Rinaâs gaze swept past Zane and Sonia before she looked directly at the police officers. âI really donât know her, Sir.â
âNonsense! Youâre talking nonsense!â Alice couldnât believe how shameless Rina was. Alice stuck her finger out and pointed at Rina while shouting at her. âYou were the one who approached me and told me to take the blame after you attacked Miss Reed! How could you say that you donât know me now?! Iâm telling the truth, sir. She was the one who attacked Rina. Iâm not lying at all!â
âDid you just say that I attacked Miss Reed?â Rina scoffed. âWhy would I do such a thing? Do you have evidence of me attacking Miss Reed?â
âI...â Alice froze for a moment before she continued speaking in a weak voice. âI donât have any evidence, but I know that you were the one who attacked Miss Reed. You attacked her because you were afraid that she would be a threat to your current identity. That was what you told me in the past.â
Rinaâs expression darkened when she heard Alice talk about Sonia threatening her identity. Rina shifted her gaze toward Sonia subconsciously. To Rinaâs surprise, Sonia had been staring at her all along, and Rina locked eyes with Sonia.
Rina didnât know that Sonia couldnât see her, so her pupils still shrank when she looked into Soniaâs icy glare. Rina quickly turned away before she increased the volume of her voice and continued to argue against Alice. That seemed to be the only way she could camouflage her suspicious behavior. Yet, as much as she tried to hide it, Zane and the rest of the officers had already taken note of Rinaâs peculiar actions.
Sonia narrowed her eyes as she seemed to be thinking about something. Meanwhile, Rina and Alice continued to argue with one another, and the officers were starting to get a headache from listening to them. âAlright, everyone, shut up!â The head officer smacked his palm against the table to stop the two women from fighting.
Both Rina and Alice fell silent. âTaylor, I canât believe youâre still denying your faults. Iâm impressed at how calm you can be while lying to everyone,â
Sonia hissed all of a sudden. A grim expression formed on Rinaâs face the moment she heard the name âTaylorâ. She hadnât heard that name in a long while. That name didnât just sound old-fashioned to her, but it also reminded her of the horrible place that she came from.
All along, Rina had been trying her best to forget about her past. Yet, when Sonia uttered her birth name, Rina felt as if she were flung into a pool of horrendous memories of her past.
