After a while, Leia's voice could be heard from the bedroom.
“Surabaya, you b*tch. Are you still there?"
Surabaya could hear the tiredness in Leia's voice.
She heard from the Norman family's maid that Leia would previously only get up at noon if she did not have any important plans.
Locking her up like this actually helped with her sleep schedule.
Surabaya rubbed her chin in thought. Leia's new habit of going to bed early and getting up early was probably to prepare her for
the future.
Jack had a copy of the audio clips too.
With the tangible evidence, Jack managed to persuade Queenie to let go of this matter and leave it to the police and the judge.
Jack even told Queenie that it was for Leia's own good.
Leia's circumstances were not that bad, so she would be able to turn over a new leaf in there.
After Queenie found out what Leia had done, she agreed. She knew that Leia had become who she was today because of her
coddling. Now, she no longer had the strength or the ability to control Leia anymore.
After listening to the clips, Queenie knew that if Leia could do something like this once, she would be able to do it a second time.
Surabaya put an end to her train of thought and lazily said to the irritable person inside, "Ms. Norman, breakfast hasn't been
delivered yet, so don't worry."
"How long are you going to keep me locked up?" Leia sat on a chair behind the door while pressing on her twitching eyelid.
She had a nightmare last night, and her right eyelid had been twitching since she woke up today.
She got so flustered that she did not curse after hearing Surabaya's voice. Instead, she just asked in a bad tone.
Surabaya raised her eyebrows outside the door. Why was Leia not cursing today?
"How would I know that? If Mr. Norman calms down, he might let you out." As soon as she said that, she saw the maid bringing
breakfast.
"I'm not feeling well. I need to see a doctor." Leia rolled her eyes when she picked up the lightness in Surabaya's voice.
What was she so happy about?
Leia thought of the dream she had last night and had a feeling that something bad was happening.
"You're not feeling well?" Surabaya glanced at the maid and nodded. "Please inform the family doctor that Ms. Norman is not
feeling well and have him come over."
"Yes, Ms. Surabaya. Here's your breakfast, and this is Ms. Norman's breakfast and medicine." The maid gently placed the tray
on the coffee table beside her. "I'll go inform the doctor now."
The Norman family's doctor was originally assigned to Old Master Norman and Old Mrs. Norman. He was highly skilled in
medicine and also served the Norman family.
Leia, who was sitting behind the door, heard the maid's words and shouted impatiently, "I want to go to the hospital!"
If she wanted to escape, she could only go to the hospital instead of having the family doctor come to her.
Besides, the family doctor worked for Jack too.
Even if the family doctor knew that she was being locked up by Jack, he would not say a word. With Surabaya here, Leia might
not be able to escape even if the bedroom door was open.
She could not help but feel anxious at the thought of this.
The maid was startled. Then, she asked Surabaya with her eyes, 'Should we send her to the hospital?'
If that were the case, they would have to call an ambulance.
Surabaya shook her head, indicating that she did not need to call an ambulance. Then, she said, "Ms. Norman, from your voice,
it sounds like you're still full of energy. You don't seem like you have any serious discomfort. Let's wait for the family doctor to
come and give you a check-up before we decide whether or not you should go to the hospital."
Leia gritted her teeth behind the door.
The maid hurried downstairs to call the family doctor afterward.
Queenie was sitting on the sofa, unclear of what was going on upstairs. When the maid came down in a hurry, she thought
something happened. "What's wrong?"
"Ms. Norman said that she's not feeling well, so Ms. Surabaya said to call the family doctor," said the maid as she picked up the
landline beside her to call the family doctor.
Queenie stood up anxiously. "Is she sick?"
The maid held the receiver of the phone and thought for a while. Ultimately, she agreed to Surabaya's words and answered, "I'm
not sure, but Ms. Norman doesn't sound sick."
Queenie frowned, worried sick.
"Mrs. Norman, let's wait until Dr. Cairn gets here," said the maid. When he picked up the call, she told him about the situation
and hung up after he agreed to come.
"I'm a little worried. This won't do. I need to inform my husband," said Queenie. Jack had accumulated a lot of work, so he had to
get up early every single day to go to work at the provincial government office.
She picked up her phone and called Jack.
“Dear, Leia said that she's not feeling well, and I'm afraid that something might happen to her. Can you come back?" Queenie
said immediately after the call was connected.
She was genuinely worried as Leia's health was not in good condition.
Jack's voice could be heard from the other end. "Don't worry about her."
"What if she really is sick?" Queenie knew what Jack was thinking, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
"Then she'll have to bear it." Jack was still as cruel as ever. If he granted Leia's wish and sent her to the hospital, she might run
away. Luke had already sent him a message to inform him that the person who had worked with her to bring down Luca and the
Norman family had already been sent to the police station, and all the evidence had been submitted as well.
Therefore, the police may take action today.
"Dear, nothing will happen with Surabaya watching." Queenie sighed as she wanted to send Leia to the hospital for a check-up.
During this period when Leia had been locked up, she had not gone upstairs as she was afraid that she would feel sorry for her.
She did not even know how Leia was doing.
"Do you know the consequences if Leia escapes from the hospital?" Jack's tone became sterner.
Sensing his seriousness, Queenie did not know what to say. She was taken aback, and she guessed that Jack was angry
because of her soft-hearted ness.
Before he went to work today, she even promised him that no matter what Leia did, she would not be swayed.
She had promised him with a smile on her face.
"Dear, I'm afraid something might happen to her in her room..." Queenie explained timidly. Even if she knew that there was no
hope left for Leia, she did not want anything bad to happen to her.
"All the evidence has been handed over to the police, so they'll come to the house today. If Leia goes to the hospital now and
escapes, she'll become a fugitive." Jack could only say this much.
After being with him for so long, Queenie knew that the law in A City was not tolerant of fugitives. Leia would not be pardoned
even if she was sick, and her sentence of one year would turn into two or three years.
If she really escaped, the consequences would be grave.
"So soon?" Queenie gasped in bewilderment.
Although she had mentally prepared herself for Leia's arrest, she still had mixed feelings when she found out that the police were
coming.
