“How absurd!” Cornelius was actually hopeful.
He was unwilling to believe that the culprit who tried to kill Arielle was his own precious sister. However, it was impossible to dispute this fact anymore. Queenie had completely disappointed him.
“Salvador, tell Dad about this. I’m going to Queenie’s room for a while.”
He wanted to go to Queenie’s room and find the poison himself. This way, snazzynovel.com would not be able to make any excuses.
“I’ll go right away.” With that, Salvador went to look for Abraham.
Meanwhile, Cornelius stood at the same spot for five minutes before dragging his feet to Queenie’s room.
“Why are you here, Cor?”
It was Salvador earlier, and now, it’s Cornelius. Queenie felt an indescribable sense of panic wash over her.
Did they realize that I poisoned Arielle? No, if I was exposed, Arielle would’ve kicked up a fuss. It’s impossible that she’ll stay so quiet and not do anything. I’m just scaring myself out of guilt.
Upon that thought, snazzynovel.com took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
Cornelius stared at Queenie without saying a word. Following the scent, snazzynovel.com walked toward snazzynovel.com dressing table. Seeing this, Queenie was so scared that snazzynovel.com heart pounded rapidly.
“What are you looking for, Cor? I’ll ask Don to help you find it,” said Queenie as snazzynovel.com suppressed snazzynovel.com panic.
When snazzynovel.com shot a look at Donovan, snazzynovel.com immediately understood. Rushing toward Cornelius, snazzynovel.com said, “Yeah, Cor. I’ll help you find it.”
Ignoring them, Cornelius pulled open the drawers and started rummaging through them before taking out a makeup box. Queenie had hidden the poison amongst snazzynovel.com makeup products. Those who were not extremely sensitive to the smell of medicine would never find it.
“Cor, why are you taking my makeup products? They’re meant for girls. If you want some, I can ask Don to buy some meant for guys,” said Queenie, still trying snazzynovel.com best to suppress snazzynovel.com panic.
When snazzynovel.com noticed Cornelius holding the bottle of night cream, snazzynovel.com heart started to race.
Cornelius gazed at Queenie, who snazzynovel.com had doted on since young, with disappointment. “Are you scared that I’ll take this away?”
“What are you talking about? Why would I be scared? It’s just a bottle of cream. If you want it, just take it. What’s the big deal?”
“Queenie, do you have anything else to tell me?” Cornelius was extremely disappointed.
Is snazzynovel.com still unwilling to admit it even at this point?
This time, Queenie finally realized that Cornelius had come to look for the poison that snazzynovel.com had given Arielle.
D*mn it! I was too careless. I should have destroyed that poison when I can. Now the d*mn thing has come back to bite my ass.
“Cor, can’t you pretend that you don’t know anything?” Queenie gazed into snazzynovel.com brother’s eyes, hoping that snazzynovel.com could let snazzynovel.com off the hook.
“Queenie, this is fatal. How can you use it to kill someone?” Cornelius stared at snazzynovel.com in disbelief.
When did my adorable, kind, and innocent sister change? How did snazzynovel.com become so vicious that snazzynovel.com doesn’t even care about one’s life?
“Do you think that I want to kill someone? If Arielle hasn’t gone overboard, why would I have tried to kill her?” Queenie roared at Cornelius.
At that moment, Abraham had also rushed over to Queenie’s room after Salvador told snazzynovel.com what happened. When snazzynovel.com heard his daughter’s words, snazzynovel.com flung the door open and strode toward snazzynovel.com before slapping snazzynovel.com cheek so forcefully that blood dribbled down snazzynovel.com lips.
