Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1191-1200

Queenie’s eyes were red as she chuckled bitterly. What did her parents know about how aggrieved she was? Ever since Bonnie came home, she came up with all sorts of ways to snatch everything away, and Queenie had given in every single time. She had compromised wherever she could. She was even willing to give Leslie to Bonnie, but why did she have to steal him away like that? Could they not at least have waited until the engagement had been called off? Queenie could not take the disrespect.

Bonnie kept crossing the line and testing her patience. It was one thing to fight openly, but she kept trying to steal things away without their parents knowing.

Queenie could not stand it any longer. That was the reason why she wanted to teach them a lesson, but her parents kept urging her now to accept the unfairness of it all—to not be rash, and to not hurt her little sister.

Just then, Queenie’s phone started ringing. It was an unknown number and she wondered if it was one of her parents calling. After giving it some thought, she decided to answer.

“Hello?”

It was a stern female voice that responded, “Is this Queenie Silverstein? We received a report saying that you committed identity fraud at nine this morning and used someone else’s identity to get a hotel room card, which led to a serious breach of privacy. Please turn yourself in at the police station for further investigation. The victim has asked that you apologize and pay compensation, or else, they will be pressing charges.”

Queenie’s expression shifted and in her panic, she dropped the call. This morning, she had been so furious that she stormed over to catch them in the act, but she never thought that Leslie would report her to the police.

No, she was not going to let herself get caught. She refused to apologize to Bonnie and Leslie. They were the ones who owed her an apology.

Just then, her phone beeped.

She saw a text from Leslie. ‘Queenie, if you don’t want to go to the police station, we can settle it in private instead. I’ll wait for you at the hotel lobby.’

Queenie’s jaw clenched. He was trying to force her to delete the videos! Still, the call from the police did freak her out, so she was willing to settle this privately.

However, she was vexed that everything she did would be all for nothing now.

Queenie stepped out of the elevator and headed straight for the lobby. As soon as she entered, she saw Leslie sitting on one of the couches, and when he spotted her, he smirked darkly.

The moment she was five steps away from him, he turned to the two security guards beside him and said, “She’s the one who lied and took the hotel card this morning. Please apprehend her.”

Queenie’s expression darkened. She never thought that it was just Leslie’s trap for her. Immediately, she turned around and ran toward the elevator.

“Stop right there!” the security guards called out to her.

Queenie frantically entered one of the elevators. When she saw the multipurpose hall sign beside the button for the eighth floor, she pressed it right away. Once the elevator arrived on the eighth floor, she dashed out in a panic and looked around. When she saw a sign for the washroom, she rushed over without remembering to check whether it was the men’s or women’s washroom.

She fled into one of the washrooms hoping to hide in a stall. Meanwhile, a man who had just finished using the urinal and had not managed to zip his pants back up yet was suddenly confronted by a woman who barged into the washroom. They stared at each other for a few seconds before he instinctively covered himself and growled, “What are you doing? This is the men’s washroom.”

They stared at each other for a few seconds before he instinctively covered himself and growled, “What are you doing? This is the men’s washroom.”

Queenie was freaking out. Why is it him again? It’s the guy whose forehead I banged into this morning, right? And… I think… I… maybe… might’ve… seen something I shouldn’t have.

“Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry! So sorry… It was an accident!”

Queenie covered her face and rushed out before heading to the women’s washroom instead.

Behind her, the man cursed, “That d*mn woman.”

The hotel’s surveillance cameras were not just there for show, and as a hotel with one of the top security systems, they were not about to let a criminal escape.

The security guards quickly came up to the eighth floor and one of the hotel attendants stopped outside the women’s washroom.

“Miss Queenie Silverstein, please cooperate with us.”

Queenie, who had been hiding inside one of the stalls, sighed. She came out of the stall with a gloomy expression and exited the washroom. The security guards instantly grabbed her arms and pushed her toward the elevators.

Along the way, they ran into several hotel guests. This was the first time Queenie had ever experienced being treated like this, and she turned red.

The security guards kept a close eye on her out of fear that she would escape again. Regardless of the circumstances, she had indeed pretended to be someone she was not and managed to procure an access card. It was something that damaged the hotel’s reputation.

At the security office.

Maggie arrived with the bodyguards, along with Leslie and Bonnie who came in hand-in-hand.

When Bonnie saw the disheveled state Queenie was in after all the commotion, she quickly took a photo, while Maggie came over to Queenie with a furious expression and held her hand out. “Give me your phone. Delete everything.”

“I’m not deleting anything, Mom.” Queenie was stubborn when she wanted to be.

“I don’t care. You’re deleting it no matter what. This is something that will damage your sister’s reputation. It’s not up to you to decide,” Maggie declared sternly without any trace of her usual gentle self.

“Queenie, I’m begging you. I know I hurt you, but please don’t destroy my reputation. Do you want me to kneel? Because I will..” Bonnie made to kneel.

However, Maggie turned around and stopped her at once. “What are you doing, Bonnie?”

“Do I need to repeat myself, Queenie? Yes, I did get engaged to you, but the one I love is Bonnie. Can’t you be the bigger person and allow Bonnie and I to be happy together?” Leslie’s expression was cold. He was the one who was in the wrong, but he made it seem like he was the victim instead.

“I’m not deleting. I refuse!” Queenie’s eyes were bloodshot. Her mother’s hurtful words, her sister’s act, and her fiancé’s unreasonable demands made her heart turn to stone.

Maggie turned pale from anger. She turned to the bodyguards and instructed, “Take her back. Don’t let her escape.”

“Leslie, you can go ahead and talk to the hotel! We’re family, so let’s not get the police involved. It’s too much of an embarrassment. Bonnie, come home with me.” Maggie reached out and took Bonnie’s hand in a great display of motherly love.

The air was tense inside the elevator. The bodyguards locked Queenie’s hands behind her like she was some kind of criminal. Queenie tried to struggle. “Let go.”

“I’m sorry, Miss Silverstein.” The bodyguards dared not go against Maggie’s command.

“Ignore her. You can even tie her up if you have to,” Maggie called out behind them.
