"It''s only fair for a daughter to repay her father''s debt." Big Sis clenched her fist and aimed at Leia''s
abdomen.
"Ugh." Leia let out a muffled groan as the blow struck her in the stomach. It was so powerful that she
immediately curled up on the ground, clutching her stomach.
A few of them were puzzled when they saw Leia''s pale face.
Was it not just a punch? Even though Big Sis was strong, it should not have been this severe.
"Get up,"manded Big Sis as she gripped Leia''s clothes.
Leia remained seated on the ground. Her face twisted in pain.
"Big Sis..." A faint voice came from behind the group.
Big Sis turned to look at the woman behind her. "Are you trying to be the peacemaker? Wanna have a
taste of my fists?"
Mandy shivered for a moment and immediately shook her head. "Big Sis, I just wanted to say that Leia
just had liver transnt surgery. Her body is weak. Her liver''s condition hasn''t improved either. Others
might be able to take your punches, but she might not..."
What she meant was, if Leia took a beating like that, she might not even have half her life left after just
a couple of punches.
If that were to happen, Big Sis could get into major trouble.
However, Mandy knew that the woman in front of her might end up facing a life sentence, and she was
the type who was not afraid of getting into trouble.
If Mandy brought up Leia''s identity or legal matters, Big Sis might not be satisfied. She could get even
be aggressive.
The best Mandy could do was remind Big Sis that Leia was very weak at the moment and might not
survive a second blow, which might make her reconsider it.
"So, she''s got liver disease. No wonder she looks half-dead,”mented another woman. She then
spat out, a glob of her spitnding on Leia''s hair.
Leia could not be bothered about the spit in her hair. She could only feel the intense pain in her
abdomen.
She could not even spare a thought for Mandy, who was locked up with her.
If it were not for the doctor confirming that her surgical incision had healed, Leia would have suspected
that that punch had reopened it.
"Hmph, I''ll let you off today, Ms. Norman. Stay here. Consider yourself unlucky. You''d better handle the
feud between me and your father well!" warned Big Sis before returning to her bed.
She was not concerned about Leia calling the police from the detention center. She did not leave any
visible marks on her face, after all.
Physical examination? Leia was neither unconscious nor was she in a life-threatening condition now.
The police would not make a mountain out of a molehill.
Mandy nced at Big Sis and suggested, "Big Sis, should I help her up to sit by the bed? If the officers
see that pitiful look on her when theye, we might be the ones in trouble."
"Hmph." Big Sis let out a cold snort without saying anything.
Mandy quickly approached Leia, helping her to sit by the bed at the far end.
"This is your bed now,” said Mandy. Knowing that Leia might not find it convenient, she willingly gave
up her lower bunk.
The lower bunk was always better than the top. If it were not for it being closest to the toilet, Leia would
not have gotten it.
Leia sat on the bed for a moment, taking a breath. Then, she gave Mandy an intense stare.
She knew it was Mandy who had betrayed her when they were giving the statement.
As Mandy met Leia''s resentful gaze, she hesitated for a moment but eventually felt that she had not
done anything wrong.
Mandy was about to go to jail. Therefore, she was definitely going to implicate Leia. She rose to her
feet and said, "Leia, hating me won''t do you any good. If it weren''t for your sloppy actions that got us
caught, others wouldn''t have dragged me into this mess. To be honest, it was you who put me in this
situation."
"Nonsense!" Leia clenched her teeth. She refused to believe that she had harmed anyone.
Honestly, it was Mandy who had set her up.
If Mandy had not insisted on partnering with Matysh and involving her, she would not have ended up
like this.
"I know you hate me for confessing to the police, but remember, we agreed to share weal and woe. I
had already split Matysh''s money with you. You can''t expect me to shoulder it alone in times of trouble.
Besides, do you know what I went through before I got arrested?" Mandy paused for a moment,
noticing that Big Sis was paying attention to them. Then, she continued, "But it doesn''t matter now.
Talking about this now won''t change anything. We''re destined to go to prison. But I advise you to
apologize sincerely to Big Sis. Otherwise, you might find yourself in a tough spot."
Mandy was not trying to scare Leia.
She hade to terms with the fact that they were bound for prison. If Big Sis did not receive a death
sentence, there was a good chance they would end up in the same facility.
No matter how arrogant Leia was or how powerful her background was, it would not end well for her if
she angered Big Sis.
Big Sis let out a cold snort but slightly nodded when she heard what Mandy said.
Even so, Leia''s apology would not change the fact that Big Sis had no intention of forgiving her.
Leia, the daughter of Jack Norman...
Big Sis clenched her fist. No matter how much Leia tried to appease her, she could not let it go easily.
Leia rolled her eyes andy down on the bed. Apologize to that kind of woman? Not a chance!
Mandy saw Leia''s reaction. She sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Let me get right to the point. That
foster father of yours had Big Sis arrested and sent to prison for the sake of his political career. It might
not help even if you apologize. You''d better take care of yourself from now on."
A City made cracking down on telmunications fraud its main goalst year.
This focus led to even old cases being dug up and dealt with.
Jack found a major telmunications fraud case among a pile of unsolved old cases.
After spending a day in this ce, Mandy had already gathered almost all the information about the
people here, including what Big Sis had done.
She was not just involved in telmunications fraud. She was also involved in human trafficking.
She sent people to the Golden Triangle for various illicit activities.
She was an extremely dangerous criminal.
She had evenmitted murder within the country but managed to escape being caught due to her
cunning nature and the less advanced methods of criminal investigation at the time. The case could
have been left unresolved, but Jack''s decision to reopen it led to Big Sis'' exposure. Her power was
stripped, resulting in her arrest.
However, the reason this woman harbored such hatred toward Jack was that her only child was hit by a
stray bullet and killed during the arrest operation.
Jack was actively involved in the operation, making him the primary target of Big Sis'' vendetta.
Leia turned over. She would have pped Mandy in the face if it were not for her weak body.
She did not have to be involved in this entire situation in the first ce.
Even if Mandy got caught, she could have stayed out of trouble as long as she did not implicate her.

However, Mandy went ahead and ratted her out.
Mandy grew annoyed when Leia was not paying her any attention. She decided not to continue
coddling. Instead, she said, "Leia, do you think you''re still living in Norman Residence? Both of us are
facing imprisonment now. I thought I''d speak up for you as an acquaintance today, but if you can''t show
some gratitude, don''t me me for disregarding our past camaraderie.
"Let me tell you, you''d better drop your heiress attitude here. Life in this ce is going to be a hundred
times harder than those few years you spent in New York. Be ready to suffer if you keep acting
arrogant."
