Chapter 844
A month ago, Prince Hollis had been struck by a sudden, severe illness. To prevent public unrest, the royal family had kept his condition a closely guarded secret.
Over the past month, countless renowned doctors had examined him, but all had reached the same conclusion: only Dr. Oracle could treat this ailment.
Sally had gone to great lengths to finally contact the mysterious physician. Now, the appointed time had long passed, yet Dr. Oracle was nowhere to be seen, leaving Sally in a state of utter desperation.
Prince Hollis was the sole heir to the throne. If anything were to happen to him, the consequences would be unthinkable. Dr. Oracle was now his only hope.
Zach looked at the queen. “Your Majesty, please try to remain calm. I have just tried to contact my master again, but she has not yet replied p>
Sally pressed her fingers to her temples. “How much longer must we wait p>
Zach bowed slightly. “Your Majesty, my master is a person of her word. Since she agreed to the consultation, she would not simply change her mind. I suspect she must have been delayed by something unexpected p>
Meanwhile, Dowager Vance’s car arrived at the police station. Officer Audley was waiting at the entrance to greet her.
“Dowager Vance, welcome p>
Dowager Vance smiled. “Mr. Audley, I heard you’ve put Freya in solitary p>
“She refused to confess. It was a last resort p>
Dowager Vance nodded. “You’ve handled this beautifully. Now, I would like to see her. Could you arrange that for me p>
“Of course,” Audley said, eager to please. “Right this way, please p>
He led Dowager Vance to a visitation room. She had only just sat down when Caitlin was brought in.
After more than an hour in solitary, anyone else would have been a terrified, trembling mess. But Caitlin appeared unchanged.
Looking at the young woman seated across from her, Dowager Vance’s eyes narrowed, a venomous glint in
their depths. This little bitch wa
like her whore of
just
a mother with that
Same bewitching face.
“Miss Gonzales, what a pleasure,” Dowager Vance began with a smirk. “I never
expected our second meeting to be in a place like this p>
“Why did you imprison my mother for twenty years p>
Caitlin stared at Dowager Vance through the glass partition, her gaze as cold as ice.
Dowager Vance let out a sharp laugh. “You’re just like that whore mother of yours. A prisoner, and still so arrogant p>
Caitlin shot to her feet, her face a mask of cold fury. “My mother is not a whore p>
“I’m telling you, Carey is a whore, a shameless whore! And you’re no different!” Dowager Vance sneered seeing Caitlin as nothing more than a trapped animal, completely at her mercy. “Do you have any idea what that whore went through at the Vance estate these last twenty years? tormented her every single day. I beat her when I wanted, cursed her when I felt like it! She
lived a life worse than an animal’s p>
Dowager Vance then took out her
phone and played a screen
recording.
The video had been filmed by Rosemary and saved to a USB drive, which they
later burned as an offering to Quinton’s spirit.
On the screen, Carey was being brutally beaten by Dowager Vance. Her body was covered in bruises, and blood seeped through her white dress When she grew tired of kitting her Dowager Vance pulled outa needle and began stabbing Carey with it, all while screaming, “You shameless harlot! You bitch! I’m telling you, you will never leave the Vance family! You belong to us in life, and you’ll belong to us in death p>
Caitlin’s eyes turned a deep, furious red. Her hands trembled at her sides. She knew her mother had suffered, but she had never imagined a hell like this.
Dowager Vance was pleased with Caitlin’s reaction. The little bitch’s pain was her pleasure. She had come here for this very reason: to crush her spirit.
“Listen to me, you little brat. Don’t think you’re safe just because you got that whore out. This is Valerium. Her good days are far from over! Soon, I’ll send both of you to join my son in hell p>
