Chapter 355 Destroying Her Own Future
As the exhibit presented by the barrister whom Olivia hired was solid, the police officers coldly brought Nicole in to assist with their investigations at first instance. Practicing medicine without a license was a grave matter.
It also did not help that Queenie fueled the flames by instigating the matter through Olivia. In an attempt to prevent Nicole from making a comeback, Queenie specifically instructed Olivia to search for journalists.
Since they had to respect the Gardners and the Schumacher Family, they agreed to come and report on this matter.
Olivia specifically searched for a location within distance from the police station where she called for a press conference, after which the journalists flung to hear her out.
Olivia requested for Queenie to publicly reveal the evidence of Nicole’s wrongdoings to the journalists, but Queenie was initially unwilling to help deal with the mess. Yet, her heart felt burdened when she thought of what Olivia had experienced lately.
After thinking about it, Queenie still decided to head onstage.
“I’m here to apologize to the Gardner Family on behalf of my sister, Nicole.” She adopted a solemn expression and said those words in a voice that was only clearly audible to those present.
That sentence alone was like a pebble that was thrown into a still river because it caused chaos among the journalists after that!
They originally came as a sign of respect to Olivia, but they never expected to learn of such revelation. Their calm expressions were then replaced by extreme agitation as they started to pepper Queenie with questions.
“Miss Queenie, what do you mean by those words? Are you insinuating that Miss Nicole has caused grievances to the Gardner Family?”
“Yeah, did you come here because of what Miss Nicole did?”
There was silence on Queenie’s part as she feigned sadness while facing the questions being thrown at her by the journalists one after another. She slightly lowered her head and looked downhearted while having crocodile tears before she raised her head to address the journalists.
Since what Queenie said made sense, the journalists started to believe her to a certain degree. When they thought about it, it was Olivia who asked them to come, which made the situation as clear as day to them.
Nicole went to the Gardner Residence as a fake doctor and was caught doing so by Olivia, after which she pestered Queenie to admit the wrongdoings!
The Gardner Family was an empire and could not be offended; Queenie had also been with Olivia for the past 5 years, so Queenie’s words should be believable!
What mattered the most now was the fact that Nicole had been brought to the police station in handcuffs. This was the truth.
If the situation had occurred like the way the journalists had predicted, then it was a given that Nicole could give this year’s Golden Brush Award a miss. After all, practicing without a license was a serious crime that came with an imprisonment of at least 3 – 5 years. It also did not help her case that she offended the Gardner Family through such an action.
By doing so, it merely meant that Nicole was ruining her future!
