Chapter 11 - Arthur Confronts His Wife About The Tampered Pills

Two hours later, Victoria was escorted into the private precinct holding room in heavy steel handcuffs.

Her crimson silk robe was stained with mud from the roadside arrest, and her hair was wildly out of place.

The heavy steel door swung open, and Arthur walked into the sterile interrogation room with an unyielding stride.

Victoria looked up, trying to force a theatrical, tearful expression onto her face as she saw her husband.

“Arthur! Thank goodness you’re safe! The police made a terrible mistake, someone kidnapped me from the estate!” she lied.

Arthur didn't flinch or raise his voice; he simply tossed the security camera flash drive onto the metal table.

“We have the footage of you swapping the medication box, Victoria, and Marcus is already confessing downtown,” Arthur stated coldly.

Victoria’s fake tears dried up instantly, her jaw dropping as the absolute reality of her prison sentence set in.

“You... you were supposed to be unconscious in the library! That dose should have stopped your heart in seconds!” she screamed.

“My seven-year-old daughter saved my life with an EpiPen while you were busy packing bags for Zurich,” Arthur replied.
