Chapter 108 Queenie Jumped off the Building.
Queenie was dumbstruck. Did Horace plan everything before my arrival?
“Are you divorcing me because of that woman?” Queenie choked back her tears. She wanted to create a scene to confront Horace without caring about her reputation. She wondered. what she had done wrong for him to humiliate her in front of her father like this. To the point, he showed her no respect as his wife.
At that moment, Horace’s phone buzzed. He glanced at it before swiftly turning it off. A hint of irritation flickered in his eyes before he raised his head and said, “Does it really matter? After all, we’re already getting divorced.” He simply wanted a quick divorce and got the 190 thousand promised by Angela.
Horace’s tone was cold, and his expression was annoyed, destroying any hope she had.
Looking at him, Queenie felt that the man before her seemed nothing like the man who had proposed to her.
She forced a bitter smile. “Okay.”
Donald grabbed her arm and said, “Good. It’s not like Queenie only has you as a choice. I was blind back then and didn’t notice what a jerk you are!” After scolding Horace, Donald pulled Queenie away, refusing to take Horace’s car.
Watching Queenie and Donald leave, Horace was somewhat surprised. He had expected her to cry and beg him not to divorce, considering she had always been so weak and timid. After all, even though he had cheated on her, she had dared not to confront him about it.
However, he didn’t think it was a big deal. He felt she would come running back to him after he said some sweet words to her.
Donald had been a teacher for years. He was a strict person, which explained why he had raised a daughter like Queenie.
The type of parents you have shaped the kind of child you become, he thought.
With all the necessary procedures completed, they both agreed to the divorce. The process was swift, and they left the city hall with their divorce certificates.
Donald dragged Queenie away and hailed a taxi. Then, they departed without acknowledging Horace.
Horace eagerly dialed Angela’s number. “I have divorced. When will you transfer the money
to me?”

to a Land Rover nearby, Angela saw Horace from the window. Then, she ended the call. She turned to Olives and asked, “Have the police arrived yet?”
Oliver nodded. As per your instructions, I handed over the evidence to the police station half an hour ago. They should be here by now.”
As Oliver finished speaking, sirens could be heard from a distance.
The police car pulled up at the city hall, and several officers stepped out. They glanced at the man frantically making a call and said coldly, “Horace, right? We are police officers. You have been reported for suspected corruption, bribery, and misappropriation of public funds. Please follow us to the station for investigation.
Who reported me? Was it Kingston? It must have been him! That scoundrel! We agreed to wait a few more days” Horace’s face turned pale, and his voice trembled. “Just give me a little more time. I’ll need to make a call!” As he spoke, he backed away while dialing frantically, only to hear a cold, busy tone on the other end.
Looking at Horace, the police officer frowned. He exchanged a glance with his colleague before approaching Horace and restraining him forcefully. They handcuffed him and led him into the car. The phone fell to the ground, causing the battery to pop out upon impact.
Horace stood there in a daze. His eyes were bloodshot and swollen as if he had reached the brink of despair.
I was so close to getting the money. Why didn’t he wait a little longer? I was just about to have enough
ney. Damn you, Kingston! Why didn’t you keep your word?
Inside the Land Rover, Angela lowered the window and watched as Horace was being taken away. Finally, a sense of satisfaction rose in her heart.
Being able to make Horace divorce Queenie and throw him in jail for several years, she felt that the money she spent was worth it. Her past life was filled with bitterness, a result of her own actions. She was too obsessed with family ties. However, Queenie didn’t deserve to end up like she did in her past life. Queenie was kind and had never done anything wrong. She deserved to live a better, happier, and more fulfilling life.
A cool breeze blew into the car and onto Angela’s face. Although it was chilling, Angela didn’t mind. She even looked happy.
Then, she reached out and tapped the back of the front seat. “Let’s go back to school. I still have to attend class.”
Angela leaned against the car window and closed her eyes, thinking about whether Riverdon had any famous economic lawyers since she needed to sue Horace, preferably having him

spend a few decades in prison just to ease her hatred.
Almost twenty minutes later, they reached the school.
Having finally settled the matter with Horace, Angela calculated the time and felt that Donald and Queenie should be home by now. Then, she called Donald. However, it was Hecate who answered the phone. She was crying on the other end.
“Aunt Hecate, what’s wrong?” Angela sensed something was wrong and felt anxious,
Hecate choked up momentarily but couldn’t hold back her tears anymore. “Queenie jumped off the building. She is in the emergency room now.”
Hearing her words, Angela felt like her heart was being torn out. Her breathing quickened, and she stood up abruptly. “Aunt Hecate, which hospital are you at? I’m coming over now!”
“At First Mercy Hospital. I’ll meet you at the entrance.”
After hanging up the phone, Angela immediately told Oliver. “Go to First Mercy Hospital.”
The car fell into silence for a moment.
Twelve minutes later, Angela arrived at the hospital.
Hecate had been waiting for her at the door. When she saw Angela, it was like seeing a savior. She grabbed Angela’s hand, her legs almost giving out. “Angela, what should we do? The doctor said Queenie was not going to make it. They want us to sign a DNR…”
Angela’s eyes darkened. As a medical student, she knew precisely what signing a DNR meant.
Outside the emergency room, Donald had already collapsed on the ground. He was a tall man, yet he looked so fragile now.
Emilia was also crying, slapping her thighs in despair.
Quincy stared at the doctor with a pale face as he tried to talk with them. “Doctor, please try to save her. We’ll pay whatever it takes!”
Angela bit her lip and was confused.
Why? Why did Queenie still jump off the building? Why did she end up back at the same tragic ending?
Norma, who was supposed to be waiting for Horace to pick her up, suddenly appeared. “The doctor has already said there’s no way to save her. What’s the point of spending all that money when she is already dead? Just sign the papers already!”

What did you say??” Quincy, who was already hot–tempered, spun around at her words. His eyes were red with anger, as if he was ready to strike at her.
