But Jerome didn''t look at Natalie with hatred. Instead, he watched her nervously.


    "Yes, I am quite vicious. And look, my viciousness hasnded you in jail, hasn''t it?" Natalie said with a smile, sitting down across from her.


    She didn''t even nce at Jerome, who was beside them.


    Yvonne was furious at Natalie''s smile. “Natalie, you set me up! You''ll get what''sing to you!"


    Natalieughed. "You won''t be around to see my karma, but I''m certainly seeing yours. I have evidence of you setting up Jerome and Zenobia, but I never released it. I was waiting for this day, for Joanna to send you off herself."


    "You always revolved around her, didn''t you? She used someone as rotten as you to seduce Jerome. Now her n has seeded. It''s a shame the two of you were so in love. One of you is crippled, and the other is going to prison."


    Natalie''s voice was light, but her words brought Yvonne crashing back to reality.


    Natalie continued, "Yvonne, I warned you that you were just a pawn. Once you were no longer useful, you would be immediately discarded."


    Yvonne was devastated. Natalie had warned her, but she hadn''t listened. Joanna had been so good to her, helping her find Jerome to be the fall guy. How could she have known Joanna was just using her? She had just been too greedy for the money Jerome gave her.


    She suddenly looked at Natalie. "Natalie, I... I know I was wrong. Everything before, it was all her scheming against you. Joanna is the evil one."


    "Please, let me go."


    Natalie replied, "I should let you go? Then why didn''t you let go of a newborn baby? You''re carrying a child yourself. Couldn''t you have shown some decency for the sake of your own baby?"


    "The things you and your aunt did together... this wasn''t the first time, was it?"


    "No... no, this was my first time. My aunt, she used her position as an obstetrician at the hospital to do this several times. Her boyfriend was the


    who carried out the crimes."


    "Her boyfriend took the ransom money and gambled it all away. It really had nothing to do with me. Natalie, know you''re kind-hearted. No matter what Joanna did to you you always forgave her. Please, jest let me go this time. I''m so sorry.


    In her desperation to be saved, Yvonne was willing to say anything, even sell out her own aunt for a chance at freedom.


    Natalie stared at her. Yvonne was heartless and hadmitted terrible deeds. Now, she was receiving her just punishment.


    There were security cameras in the room, and their entire conversation would be recorded.


    She stood up and looked at Yvonne''s contorted face. "Yvonne you can''t ever forgive yourself for the crimes you''vemitted What do you expect me to do?"


    "The person you drove to their death, the pain you caused Zenobia-did you ever feel a shred of pity for them when they were suffering?"


    With that, Natalie walked away.


    Yvonne sat on the floor in a daze. In that moment, she finally understood. It was really over for her.


    Jerome had Zack push his wheelchair to follow her.


    "Ah!" Seeing Jerome about to leave, Yvonne screamed, "Jerome, I''m still carrying


    your child! You can''t leave! Come back and save me! Come back!"


    "You coward! Get back here!"


    Zack nced back, a murderous glint in his eyes. If it weren''t for his younger daughter, he would have killed this woman with his own hands.


    Outside the police station, Jerome watched Natalie''s retreating figure and called out, "Natalie, wait!"
