Leia's sharp nails dug into her palm. She tried her best to remain calm and not let everyone see that she was panicking.
However, her slightly trembling shoulders betrayed her composure.
Queenie grabbed Leia's shoulder and asked her agonizingly, "Tell me, Leia. You didn't take illegal drugs, right?"
Leia's fragile visage was instantly shrouded by a thin layer of tears when she heard her mother's question. "Don't you know my character, Mom? I've always been so timid, and I wouldn't even dare to kill an ant. Do you think that I would take illegal drugs? Everyone else can accuse me of wrongdoing, but you're my mother!"
Her sickly demeanor and unrelenting questions made Queenie feel bad that she had even suspected her daughter the slightest.
Bianca smirked when she saw Leia's act. 'Not bad. No wonder she can be an actress,' she thought.
'If she had employed her talents in her career, she might have become a famous movie star by now.
'Too bad, her talents are used at all the wrong places.'
Queenie patted Leia's shoulders and spoke to her gently, "It's not that I don't trust you, but I'm worried because the police officers are here and they're suspecting you of drug possession… If you haven't done anything wrong, I don't think you should be worried about it. I'll go to the police station with you, and I'll make sure that they restore your innocence."
Leia was not relieved when she heard her mother's words of comfort. Instead, she became even more nervous.
She would be fine if she were innocent, but…
If the police officers could come to the house to look for her, it meant that they must have had some evidence of her wrongdoing.
If her mother found out that she took illegal drugs, she would not have any position in the household.
When she thought of that, her face turned as pale as a ghost.
She looked at Queenie, then clutched her head as though she had a migraine. "I don't feel too well today, Mom. My head hurts, and I don't think I can go to the police station. Can I go another day?"
…
The two police officers waited for a long time downstairs. Eventually, they became impatient and went up to the second floor. They happened to overhear that Leia did not want to go to the police station.
The male police officer flashed his badge again and spoke sternly to Leia, "Ms. Norman, we've received orders from our superiors that we need to bring you back to the police station for investigations today. Please do not obstruct us in carrying out our duty."
"My head really hurts, Mom, and my chest feels stuffy. I wonder what's going on…" Leia clutched her forehead as though she was in agony. Her figure wavered and she clutched her chest.
Suddenly, her body went limp, and she collapsed in front of everyone.
"…" Bianca was speechless.
'She's an actress alright, but that was so fake.'
"…" The two police officers were speechless too.
'Now that Ms. Norman has passed out, how do we bring her back?' They turned to look at Queenie worriedly.
"Let me check on her, Mom. She was healthy yesterday. I don't think she could become so sick today."
Bianca walked up to Leia and towered over her unconscious body.
