Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred)

Lea adjusted her position, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.

The man said, “Miss Berry, we came to see you after obtaining this evidence. You may not realize it, but you have been here for ten days.”

She looked up at him, her eyes flashing with disbelief before she regained her composure.

She said, “Let’s talk about you.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

The man was puzzled. “Oh!”

“You are a researcher. Her gaze became intense. “Your skin is unnaturally pale, almost never exposed to sunlight. Your lab is underground, about 300 feet below ground level?

She added, “You’ve been in the lab for a long time, twenty years? No, more than thirty years? There are faint red blotches on your face, moving down to your neck.”

Although he wore a dark gray turtleneck, the exposed parts showed deeper blotches than those on his face.

Lea began again. “It’s lymphatic cancer causing immune system failure, excessive medication leading to digestive system disorders, causing skin changes. You’ve had cancer for nearly twenty years, haven’t you? What medication are you taking! Is it something you developed yourself?”

She continued. “So, you’re a pharmaceutical researcher. But the drugs you develop can’t cure you entirely. They treat one illness but cause another. You then research another drug for that new illness, which causes yet another illness… An endless cycle over the past twenty years. So now, you are a complex and chaotic experiment subject!

His expression cracked as her words hit home, and he lunged at her with a low growl.

Separated by the table, with more than three feet between them, Lea watched his eyes flash with madness and violence as she slowly stood up

“So, is this the reason you came to me, to Riverview Hospital? Her tone was calm and confident.

The man suddenly laughed and regained his composure.

“Miss Berry, you truly are a genius just as they say. Your profiling is mostly accurate,” he said with admiration. “But I’m not here for you”

“I’m just a special appointee of the organization, tasked with certain responsibilities because of my capabilities, he continued, his tone becoming

more mysterious

“I want to see the others. Call your superiors! Lea demanded, her voice edged with frustration.

The man said, “The organization will follow protocol to meet you. This case is significant, drawing attention even from the highest national authorities Miss Berry, you should brace yourself.”

Then, he glanced at the table and the scattered evidence on the floor before leaving the room. Then, the door closed.

Lea stood still, her hands clenched into fists, trembling slightly.

After a while, she regained her composure, bent down, and began to gather the evidence. As she looked at the confessions and photos, her body shook slightly.

She couldn’t imagine what kind of horrific interrogations they had endured. Her eyes turned wet, tears glistening as she lowered her gaze.

Every movement Lea made, including the tears in her eyes, was captured on camera. On the other side of the surveillance, a team was studying her.

Three days later, the door to the interrogation room finally opened again, and someone came to see her.

The man who entered was in his forties, wearing a blue suit and a tic, appearing both righteous and gentle.

When he entered. Lea was pacing back and forth. Her steps were slow, tired, and weak. Her eyes were somewhat vacant.

Hearing someone come in, she turned to look at him. Her gaze Instantly sharpened. “Are you a lawyer!”

The lawyer nodded, his attitude gentle and soothing. “Miss Berry, please sit.”

12:08 PM

She sat back in the interrogation seat. The lawyer then sat down, placing his briefcase aside and introducing himself. “My name is Jack Smith, a lawyer from Dawson Law Firm. You might not know me, but I can assure you that iny professional skills are top–notch.”

Knowing that she had only recently come to Iverion for her studies and was a research prodigy, he made a special effort to introduce himself.

Lea nodded. She did know him. Saying his skills were top–notch was actually an understatement.

Jack was the number one lawyer in Iverton. Not only was he a lawyer, but also a significant partner of the Andrews Group with substantial shares. He was the top–ranked gold–medal lawyer.

When the hospital was setting up its legal team, Chris had first considered their firm. But after thorough investigation and deliberation, they decided against it.

Jack said, “I have been assigned to be your lawyer, and I will fully represent your interests and fight for you.”

“Okay” Lea nodded.

Jack then added, “Please believe in my loyalty to you. Our law hem is a key partner of Andrews Group. I was assigned to come here because of Mr.

Milton.

As he spoke, he looked at her with genuine sincerity.

Hearing Milton’s name. Lea’s expression slightly darkened, though it wasn’t very noticeable.

It was precisely because of this concern that she told Chris she wanted to set up her own legal team. Besides her quest for revenge, she didn’t like having contact with Milton, including his panners

Jack thought her relationship with Milton was extraordinary given Milton’s public declaration of love for her on television, and she would trust

him.

He said, “Mr. Andrews went to great lengths to get me here

She nodded silently.

He took a document from his briefcase and got to the main point. “Miss Berry, if you agree to have me as your lawyer, please sign here.”

She signed the document and handed it back to him.

He solemnly said, “The current simation is unfavorable for you?

Lea replied, “Those allegations are baseless. I haven’t done this kind of research, and neither has our hospital”

Jack replied, “Miss Berry, we need to discuss the details now. You have to trust me and tell me everything that happened.

From start to finish, Lea repeated the same sentence. After more than half an hour, she looked somewhat obsessive, and he was starting to feel a bit overwhelmed.

Jack said, “Alright, I’ll investigate in all again, I’ll go see Mr. Wessen and the others

Lea responded, “Okay. They must have been threatened and coerced.”

Jack looked at her silently with a hint of helplessness. He packed his things and left.

Jack worked efficiently and came to see her again the next day.

He

Miss Berry, I have already spoken with the people from your hospital. Their statements are consistent with their previous confessions. Now, the evidence and testimonies are solid and undeniable. This is a fact that no one can change.”

“Fact?” Lea muttered, looking around and up at the ceiling which blocked the sky. She couldn’t help but laugh mockingly. “I did nothing, so how could it become a fact!”

Her eyes were red, glistening with tears, full of grievance and anger,

Jack responded, “Miss Berry.

Berry, I have tried my best. Do you have any other evidence or clues? I will investigate

She lowered her head and the two locked eyes–Jack looked sympathetic and troubled, with a hint of scrutiny, observing if she was mentally stable.

12:08 PM

He had led a team to investigate everything thoroughly, and the facts were as they appeared.

If someone completely denied their actions, not out of pretense but genuinely had no memory or recollection, it must be a brain issue.

Lea understood his scrutiny and fell silent.

“Miss Berry, the issue we need to face now is to secure a lighter legal sentence. You are still young, and we will do everything possible to save your life.” Jack was kind, entirely considering her well–being.

Worried that she couldn’t accept it, he paused before saying, “Given your situation, you will be sentenced to death.”

Lea looked at him in shock. At that moment, everything around her seemed to freeze, even time stood still.

“But we will find a way to save your life,” Jack immediately comforted her. “Usually, the way k…”

“Get out! Get out… Lea kicked over the table, sending his briefcase and documents crashing to the ground.

ck hadn’t moved aside, he would have been knocked over.

If Jack

“Miss Berry!”

“Get out, get out…

Seeing Lea so agitated, Jack had no choice but to leave.
