Chapter 851
As luck would have it, Gabriel and Nora happened to be out, leaving Queena home alone.
When Queena saw several menacing bodyguards burst through her door, followed by a composed Anastasia who strode in leisurely, her face fell. “Anastasia! What do you think you’re doing p>
Anastasia let out a sudden laugh. “What do I think I’m doing? Shouldn’t you know p>
With that, she nonchalantly sat down on Queena’s sofa and waved a hand at the bodyguards. “Go ahead p>
Queena recoiled in shock. “What are you trying to do? My house has security cameras! You wouldn’t dare p>
Anastasia smiled faintly. “Since I dared to walk through your door, do you really think your cameras are still working p>
Her face instantly turned cold. “Do it p>
“Anastasia! How dare ah p>
A punch to the gut sent Queena screaming to the floor.
“Anastasia! Are are you insane?! Who gave you the nerve to treat me like this p>
Anastasia feigned surprise. “I need someone’s permission to hit you? Are you some kind of untouchable figure p>
She casually crossed her legs, took a sip of the coffee she’d bought on the way, and watched Queena get beaten. Her mood was absolutely splendid.
In just a few minutes, Queena had lost all her previous composure. Her hair was a mess, her face was pale, and her features were twisted in agony.
She demanded, “What gives you the right to do this to me p>
“What gives me the right?” The smile on Anastasia’s lips was icy. “Don’t you know perfectly well? What, you dared to make a move on me but never considered the consequences p>
She narrowed her eyes, feigning contemplation. “Tell me, if I just beat you to death today, as long as all the traces are cleaned up, no one would ever find out, right p>
Queena’s pupils contracted in fear. “Anastasia p>
She babbled incoherently, “I don’t know what you’re talking about! I didn’t do anything p>
On this point, Queena was confident. She was sure York wouldn’t betray her!
Anastasia had no interest in hearing her pathetic excuses. “Do you think I’d be here if I wasn’t sure p>
Queena’s denials died in her throat.
York wouldn’t betray her, which meant p>
She dug her nails into her palm—
To trick York into doing her dirty work, she had deliberately hidden Anastasia’s identity. To prevent Anastasia from revealing it herself, she had bribed one of York’s men to intervene
She knew how York felt about her, so she was certain that even if he found out the truth afterward, he wouldn’t hold a grudge. Given his lapdog tendencies, he’d probably. just keep fawning over her.
But she had completely overlooked that subordinate!
She had only considered the plan succeeding believing that even if York found out about the bribe, he found.out wouldn’t care. She never imagined the possibility of the plan failing and everyone being captured by Harrison!
“So what if I did it? What a pity you didn’t die p>
—Realizing that any further denial was futile, Queena let out a cold laugh and tried
to yank herself free from the bodyguards’ grip, but to no avail.
