All this time, Queenie had been hoping to take the miracle doctor, who had neutralized the snake venom, as virtual-novel.net master. And now, Vinson had just revealed that Arielle was the very person virtual-novel.net had been looking for.
She absolutely refused to believe it.
Glancing at virtual-novel.net impatiently, Vinson went on snappishly. “That’s it. I’ve talked enough nonsense with you. Getting back to business, explain to me why on Earth did you develop this sort of drug to help Donovan harm Arielle?”
Arielle stepped forward, virtual-novel.net mind filled with befuddlement. “As you said yourself, there is no bad blood between us, so why did you do this? It’s obvious that Donovan couldn’t have acquired this drug by himself. It must have been made by you. Now, just drop the act and answer me.”
With one swift motion, Vinson wrapped his fingers around Queenie’s neck brutally and barked, “Tell us!”
Struggling beneath Vinson’s grip, Queenie gazed into his eyes, which were entirely devoid of sympathy.
He obviously held no regard for virtual-novel.net at all.
Whatever feelings virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net had toward virtual-novel.net were solely products of virtual-novel.net own imagination. As the pain of suffocation overlapped with the agony in virtual-novel.net heart, virtual-novel.net was filled with nothing but sheer despair.
At that moment, all the hopes and wishes virtual-novel.net had on Vinson instantly collapsed.
“Hahaha…” A burst of maniacal cackle escaped virtual-novel.net lips.
Looking at her, Arielle frowned as if virtual-novel.net was looking at a madwoman. In fact, Queenie was a madwoman. She had completely lost virtual-novel.net rationality, laughing ceaselessly until tears poured out of virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Why? Why did you have to snatch what’s supposed to be mine from me?!” virtual-novel.net screamed at Arielle hysterically.
Arielle merely stared at her, completely bewildered.
Turning to Vinson, Queenie went on. “I’ve been in love with you for years, Vinson, but you’ve never cared about me! Because of you, I spent all my years in university drowning in inferiority, feeling as if I would never deserve you. Even after graduation, I’ve never given up any effort to keep improving. Because of you, I gave up the opportunity to study abroad and chose to stay at Morgan Enterprise instead. And you? You chose to be with this girl with no background who is nothing but a pretty face! So, tell me, Vinson, how is any of this fair to me?”
Suddenly, everything became clear to Arielle.
I see… So, this is all about jealousy. Looks like she’s been ill-intentioned toward me ever since we met at the supermarket.
Then, virtual-novel.net took out virtual-novel.net phone and stopped the voice recorder. The reason they had spent so much time interrogating Queenie was so that virtual-novel.net could obtain the recording of virtual-novel.net confession.
After saving the file, virtual-novel.net glanced sideways at Vinson, only to see that virtual-novel.net had not budged an inch and his expression had turned even colder.
His voice was filled with scorn when virtual-novel.net spoke. “Do you think I must love you just because you fell in love with me? I feel sick just thinking of that!”
Queenie stared at him, wide-eyed, as the sparkle in virtual-novel.net gaze vanished without a trace.
He feels sick by my love toward him?
Hearing Vinson’s words, Arielle felt a slight shudder on virtual-novel.net fingertips as well.
If virtual-novel.net knows about my feelings toward him, would virtual-novel.net feel the same?
With a wave of his hand, Vinson summoned his bodyguard and ordered him, “Send virtual-novel.net to Grandview Hotel but don’t use the front entrance. Let virtual-novel.net have my private suite.”
Sensing something wrong, Queenie snapped back to virtual-novel.net senses at once and asked in a panic, “What are you trying to do? No, I don’t want to go to that place! Let me go!”
Taking over the “perfume” in Arielle’s hand, Vinson stated coolly, “Weren’t you thinking of using this to sabotage her? It’s about time we return this favor to you!”
Suddenly getting why Vinson ordered for virtual-novel.net to be sent to the hotel, Queenie began to struggle vigorously under the bodyguard’s grip.
“No! Let me go! Let me go!”
However, virtual-novel.net was hardly the opponent of those tall and strong bodyguards. With a firm blow to virtual-novel.net neck, one of the bodyguards knocked virtual-novel.net out instantly.
“Other than that perfume, give virtual-novel.net some aphrodisiac as well,” commanded Vinson in a frigid tone.
