"Go on. I've got this," Arabella said, her voice steady as a rock and her expression unflappable.
The lead investigator and the stenographer exchanged worried glances. "Ms. Bella, just be careful,
okay? We're right outside if you need us," they cautioned.
Arabella nodded in affirmation.
Once the two had left the room, Yolanda glared at Arabella with eyes blazing with hatred, as if she
wished she could strike her dead right there and then.
"Don't say I never gave you a chance," Arabella suddenly declared, producing a small folding knife
from her jacket and tossing it before Yolanda. "I won't fight back. You've got three minutes."
Yolanda eyed the knife on the ground, her mind racing with doubts about whether this was some sort of
trap Arabella had set.
"You wanna kill me, right?" Arabella taunted with a disinterested tone. "Here's your shot."
Yolanda wasn't about to let an opportunity slip by. She was already locked up, and her charges were
heavy enough to put her on death row.
So, trap or not, she lunged for the knife, flipped it open, and thrust it at Arabella.
Arabella coolly started the stopwatch app on her phone.
Blinded by rage, Yolanda attacked with all her might, but Arabella effortlessly dodged every attempt.
Not once in those three minutes did Yolanda manage to so much as nick Arabella's clothing, let alone
harm a single hair on her head.
On the contrary, Arabella watched Yolanda's self-doubt grow, her breath coming in ragged gasps, and
said calmly, "Do you know why I gave you this chance? To show you that even though I was unarmed
and standing still, you can't hurt me. You're not, nor will you ever be, in my league."
Enraged, Yolanda felt the previous wound on her leg, inflicted by Arabella, reopening due to her
frenetic movements. The bandage was soaked with fresh blood, and the pain made her forehead sweat
profusely.
"If you hadn't slashed my hand and wounded my leg, it might have been a different story!" Yolanda spat
back defiantly. "Stand still if you dare!"
Arabella asked indifferently, "Do you know where I've just come from? Your foster mother, Yvonne, died
five days ago. I've just seen her body."
Yolanda's expression flickered with panic before she quickly composed herself.
Yolanda's eyes, red with fury, bore into Arabella.
"My guess is, on that day, you decided to kill me, but your foster mother found out. She tried to stop
you, and in the heat of the argument, you killed her." Content of Draмąոovels.com
Her discomfort only solidified Arabella's suspicions.
