Keira felt a dull ache in her lower abdomen, a persistent throbbing she could bear but not ignore. Her face was ghostly pale, beads of cold sweat dotting her forehead as she gripped Holly's wrist tightly. "I need to go to the bathroom," she whispered, each word costing her effort.
Holly supported her arm gently, guiding her toward the restroom. She waited outside, worry gnawing at her heart. *Could she really just be anemic?* Holly wondered, recalling how Keira's complexion had turned ashen and how her hand had trembled. Something didn't feel right.
Meanwhile, in the visitation room of the detention center, a very different scene was unfolding. Poppy Hill sat across from her daughter Isla, her face bright with a syrupy smile. "Isla, how wonderful that you came to see me! But you shouldn't have — this place is nothing but bad luck."
Isla responded with only a faint, hesitant smile. Something was clearly troubling her.
Poppy's expression shifted instantly to maternal concern. "What's wrong? You look dreadful. Is it Keira again? Did that ungrateful wretch disrespect you?"
Isla let out a bitter, theatrical sigh. "It's about Keira, but she hasn't been disrespectful. She's gotten herself into real trouble this time."
"Oh, that's nothing," Poppy scoffed, a cruel smirk curling her lips. "With that devil-may-care attitude of hers, it was only a matter of time. Who did she offend? Did she finally get what she deserved?"
Isla watched her mother with barely concealed contempt. *How foolish,* she thought. Poppy wore every emotion on her sleeve, completely incapable of hiding her glee at Keira's suffering. Isla couldn't fathom how such a simple-minded woman had managed to swap her place with Keira all those years ago. It had to be pure, dumb luck.
Lowering her eyes to hide her true feelings, Isla spoke in a carefully measured tone. "It's not that she offended someone. She... she committed murder. She's in police custody."
"Wonderful news!" Poppy's eyes lit up with unholy delight. "Will that reprobate be sentenced to death? Finally, she won't bother you anymore!"
Isla was speechless. She stared at her mother with something akin to pity, then coughed delicately. "She killed Finley Hill."
The name hit Poppy like a bullet. "Why should I care who she— Who?! Isla, who did you say?! Finley?! Did I hear you correctly?!"
Poppy lunged forward, slamming her hands on the table between them. Her face contorted with fury. Finley was her only brother, her blood. Despite his many flaws, she loved him with a fierce, blind devotion.
Isla sighed, playing the role of a reasonable mediator. "To be fair, you can't really blame Keira. I heard that Finley demanded five million from her. When she refused, during the struggle, Finley accidentally fell onto a steel bar. It pierced through his chest... He died instantly. Aunt Hill, please don't get too upset. Keira is Dr. South's daughter, after all — she should be very rich. Five million is still a large sum, but it's understandable she didn't want to give it up."
Poppy's eyes bulged, bloodshot with rage. She shot to her feet, her voice cracking with fury. "That ungrateful creature! She killed Finley over five million?! I should have drowned her the moment she was born! Where is she?! I'll kill her myself! I'll take revenge for Finley!"
A nearby police officer immediately warned her to calm down. After a tense moment, Poppy settled back into her seat, but the murderous fire in her eyes never dimmed.
Isla continued, her voice dripping with false concern. "Aunt Hill, both of them are your close relatives. I thought you had the right to know, so I told you. Please don't do anything rash."
Poppy's eyes glistened with tears as she nodded mechanically. "Don't worry, Isla. I'm fine... I'm fine..."
"I'll go see Keira now," Isla said, rising.
"Why bother visiting a death-row inmate? I can't wait to see her executed!" Poppy spat venomously.
Isla stared at her in disbelief. "Aunt Hill, Keira is charged with manslaughter. The maximum sentence is ten years, not death."
"Ten years?! That's letting her off too easily!"
Seeing that Poppy completely missed the point, Isla sighed again. "Aunt Hill, Keira didn't do it on purpose. She must be terrified herself. If you happen to see her here in the detention center, remember to comfort her."
Poppy's eyes snapped with sudden interest. "She's held here too?"
Isla nodded. "Yes, she hasn't been sentenced yet, so she's in a single cell. It should be close to where you are."
Poppy's eyes narrowed into dangerous slits. "That's good."
Isla left without a backward glance, leaving Poppy to stew in her rage. As she exited the visiting room, she spotted Holly standing anxiously near the restroom door. A policewoman was speaking to Holly.
"Dr. Sims, the lawyer for the suspect Keira came early this morning, asking about the pre-trial release decision on medical grounds. Judging by the suspect's appearance just now, she seems truly anemic. Should we approve it?"
Holly frowned, her conscience warring with her professional judgment. She was about to agree when Captain Lincoln strode over.
"Already pretending to be ill?" he sneered.
"She's not pretending," Holly retorted.
Captain Lincoln snorted coldly. "Dr. Sims, have you forgotten how she fooled you yesterday? You actually believe this act? I distinctly remember you swearing last night that if she got pre-trial release, you'd quit the police force. You didn't forget that, did you?"
Holly clenched her jaw. "Captain Lincoln, she really isn't feeling well—"
"Interesting," he interrupted. "She's been detained for just one day, and suddenly she's not feeling well. The delicate little miss can't handle a bit of suffering, hmm?"
Before Holly could respond, Isla stepped forward. "Hello, are you discussing my sister Keira?"
Holly frowned. "What are you doing here?"
Isla pulled Holly aside, her expression anxious. "Dr. Sims, it's about my sister's health..."
Holly didn't know about the toxic history between the two sisters. She thought Isla was genuinely concerned. "What's wrong with Keira?"
Isla sighed dramatically. "She probably got her period. Every month at this time, she suffers terribly. It's natural for women, you understand."
Holly immediately relaxed. *So that's all it is.*
Isla grabbed her hand. "Holly, we were classmates in middle school. Can you help Keira? Approve her pre-trial release, please. We women all go through this every month. She looks pale and anemic, yes, but it's just that time of the month. Let's sign the papers. I promise she won't leave town..."
Holly yanked her hand away, her face hardening. "You're dreaming! This is a law enforcement agency, not a marketplace for favors! She doesn't qualify for pre-trial release!"
She turned to Captain Lincoln. "Send her straight back to the detention center!"
Only then did Captain Lincoln nod with satisfaction. "Good. You understand."
Holly stormed away, heading upstairs to the forensic department. When Keira emerged from the restroom, pale and barely standing, a policewoman was waiting. "Miss Olsen, is it just your period? We're all women here. Stop the act! Get back to your cell and wait for the next trial!"
Keira's legs felt like rubber as she was hurried back to her single-person cell. The moment she crossed the threshold, everything before her eyes went black. She collapsed onto the cold floor, unconscious.
Upstairs, Holly couldn't shake the image of Keira's bloodless face. Her heart ached with conflict. Finally, unable to suppress her kindness, she poured a cup of honey water from her flask and walked toward the detention center.
But the damage had been done. Isla's subtle manipulation had sealed Keira's fate — for now.
