Chapter 394 Best Actress

When Rina saw Sonia and Zane, she naturally felt a pang of guilt and fear. Without realizing what she

was doing, she took a step back and lowered her head to avoid making eye contact with them. She was

afraid to look at them, which was typical behavior of someone who was guilty. Zane was positive that

Rina was the one who had attacked Sonia.

He eyed her coldly. “Why are you hiding? Shouldn’t you greet your bosses when you see them?”

Upon hearing his words, Rina felt a sharp pain in her chest, and she lowered her head even more. I can’t

believe I bumped into Sonia and Zane here. I’d be able to handle the situation if I bumped into Sonia

alone, but Zane… Rina bit her lip as a strong sense of panic filled her insides.

She had feelings for Zane. She had fallen for him when she met him after she first came to Seafield. It

was her first time seeing a man who looked so gorgeous and perfect. However, she knew that she was

no match for him and that he’d never fall for a girl like her. So, she had no choice but to conceal her

feelings so that he wouldn’t find out about it.

Although she had never dreamt of being with him, she still hoped that she would leave an impression on

him. In order to do so, she spent most of her time learning all sorts of skills to improve herself. She

hoped that she would be able to change his perception of her someday. She wanted him to see her as

an elegant swan instead of an ugly duckling who came from some village. Maybe I would match up to his

standards someday. Maybe I would have the right to be with him someday, right?

However, after Zane found out that she had harmed Sonia, things were clear from his icy voice and

attitude. He obviously despised her. Rina couldn’t bring herself to accept his hatred—she was fine if

Sonia or anyone else hated her, but she simply couldn’t accept the fact that Zane hated her as well. At

that thought, tears welled up in Rina’s eyes. She looked up and stared at Zane. “Mr. Coleman, I—”

“Alright, Zane. Let’s go in for now. We can talk in the station,” Sonia uttered all of a sudden. Sonia had

interrupted Rina’s words with a harsh tone. Zane nodded and stepped forward to push Sonia’s

wheelchair. “You can wait for us in the car,” he said to Rebecca.

“Okay.” Rebecca nodded. She was fine with that arrangement as she had never been fond of police

stations. She had too much blood on her hands. Even though it was all blood of the dead, she would still

feel guilty if she entered a police station.

Zane wheeled Sonia into the station without looking at Rina at all. Rina stood still and bit her lower lip as

she stared at Zane and Sonia’s backs, then clenched her fists silently.

Meanwhile, Rebecca lit up a slim cigarette and took a long, tasty drag in the car. She eyed Rina with a

slight smirk on her face. I can’t believe this woman fell for Zane, she thought as she curled her lips

upward. How interesting!

Rina seemed to have sensed Rebecca’s eyes on her, for she turned around to glance in Rebecca’s

direction. Rebecca had eyes that seemed to peer into one’s soul, and Rina was flustered when she

locked eyes with Rebecca. Rina hastily lowered her head before hurrying into the station.

When she got to the interrogation room, Rina found Zane, Sonia, and Alice waiting for her. Her

expression darkened as she realized what had happened. So, Alice was the one who snitched on me. I

just don’t know how the police managed to find me.

“Zane!” Sonia tugged on Zane’s sleeve, and Zane looked down at her. “What is it?”

“How did Taylor respond when she saw Alice?” Sonia asked in a hushed tone. The police had sent

officers to bring Alice over from Tim. Since Alice was just a scapegoat and not the actual person who

attacked Sonia, Sonia told Tim that he didn’t need to let Alice try the medication. Sonia simply got him to

have Alice locked up temporarily.

However, she heard that Tim had locked Alice up in the hospital’s morgue. He had ordered her to keep

watch on the dead bodies for a few days, and she was thoroughly shocked after spending a few days

there. She no longer seemed like she was in her right mind after that.

“I didn’t see much of a response from Rina,” Zane murmured as he glanced at Sonia.

Sonia pressed her lips together. “It seems like her acting skills are pretty good.” The police officer then

pointed to a seat that was meant for the suspect. “That’s your seat,” he said to Rina.

Rina looked over to see that her seat was right beside Alice’s, and she went over to sit down without

saying anything else. Meanwhile, Sonia and Zane stayed beside the few officers. The chief officer was

the first to speak. “Do you know the woman beside you, Rina?”

Rina’s gaze flickered before she turned to look at Alice. Rina feigned a puzzled look as she shook her

head. “No. I’ve never seen her before.”

“You’re lying!” Alice widened her eyes in disbelief. After being cooped up in the hospital for the past few

days, Alice was aware that she had been hypnotized. She came clean about the whole situation after

that. Initially, she was worried that her son wouldn’t be saved after she explained the situation, but Tim

told her that the person who got her to be a scapegoat hadn’t paid for her son’s medical bills even after a

few days had passed. She was furious when she heard about this.

Fortunately, Tim had offered to help her apply for charity funds that could support her son’s medical bills.

He did so with the condition that she would point out and accuse the person who had gotten her to be

the scapegoat. Alice was willing to agree to Tim’s terms for the sake of her son. But now, this woman

who got me to take the blame is claiming that she doesn’t know me!

“I’m not lying. I don’t know you at all.” Rina blinked a few times as she put on an innocent expression.

Right after that, Rina’s gaze swept past Zane and Sonia before she looked directly at the police officers.

“I really don’t know her, Sir.”

“Nonsense! You’re talking nonsense!” Alice couldn’t believe how shameless Rina was. Alice stuck her

finger out and pointed at Rina while shouting at her. “You were the one who approached me and told me

to take the blame after you attacked Miss Reed! How could you say that you don’t know me now?! I’m

telling the truth, sir. She was the one who attacked Rina. I’m not lying at all!”

“Did you just say that I attacked Miss Reed?” Rina scoffed. “Why would I do such a thing? Do you have

evidence of me attacking Miss Reed?”

“I…” Alice froze for a moment before she continued speaking in a weak voice. “I don’t have any

evidence, but I know that you were the one who attacked Miss Reed. You attacked her because you

were afraid that she would be a threat to your current identity. That was what you told me in the past.”

Rina’s expression darkened when she heard Alice talk about Sonia threatening her identity. Rina shifted

her gaze toward Sonia subconsciously. To Rina’s surprise, Sonia had been staring at her all along, and

Rina locked eyes with Sonia.

Rina didn’t know that Sonia couldn’t see her, so her pupils still shrank when she looked into Sonia’s icy

glare. Rina quickly turned away before she increased the volume of her voice and continued to argue

against Alice. That seemed to be the only way she could camouflage her suspicious behavior. Yet, as

much as she tried to hide it, Zane and the rest of the officers had already taken note of Rina’s peculiar

actions.

Sonia narrowed her eyes as she seemed to be thinking about something. Meanwhile, Rina and Alice

continued to argue with one another, and the officers were starting to get a headache from listening to

them. “Alright, everyone, shut up!” The head officer smacked his palm against the table to stop the two

women from fighting.

Both Rina and Alice fell silent. “Taylor, I can’t believe you’re still denying your faults. I’m impressed at

how calm you can be while lying to everyone,” Sonia hissed all of a sudden. A grim expression formed

on Rina’s face the moment she heard the name ‘Taylor’. She hadn’t heard that name in a long while.

That name didn’t just sound old-fashioned to her, but it also reminded her of the horrible place that she

came from.

All along, Rina had been trying her best to forget about her past. Yet, when Sonia uttered her birth name,

Rina felt as if she were flung into a pool of horrendous memories of her past.
