Zosia: Quick Transmigration System-Chapter 21 - 20- Arc 1
Back at the apartment...
Caroline immediately followed behind Diana to get out but was violently dragged back by the mother of the deceased- Fria.
Caroline tried to struggle free but could not. She could only watch as the people she came with rushed out of the apartment through the door.
Even the women who had been consoling Fria, also left.
'F*ck' Caroline cursed. She knew she couldn't stay in the same room with this woman.
"You-" her words were blocked by the pain of her hair being dragged.
"I must deal with you today. You killed my daughter." Fria landed her palms on Caroline face.
"Do you think I don't dare to touch you because you're from a wealthy family?" Fria shrill voice echoed in the room while she dragged Caroline by the hair.
"You, do you know who I am?" A shrill like voice escaped her lips.
"Of course I do, you are a sniveling slut— " Fria words were blocked by the entrance of police into her apartment.
Even her husband who had kept mute and let her deal with Caroline stood up violently In shock.
Caroline also felt dread and the sight of the police but quickly sighed in relief when she noticed her guards behind them.
As she stared at her guards who stood behind the officers, she smirked.
She was finally not going to be in the same room with this woman.
The smirk vanished on her face when what happened next was what she dreaded the most.

Outside the apartment...
֎Dominic's POV֎
Breathing in the fresh air, he tugged at his tie.
"Thanks for today, Barr. Kamil."
"You are welcome, Mr. Dominic." Dominic smiled at his response and turned to look at Zosia whose facial expression had turned into one of shock.
Deciding to tease her, he flicked her forehead. "How have you been doing, my Fiancé?"
His action not only caused him to be surprised, but even those around him were surprised.
"Cough!... Mr. Dominic, I'm sure you understand the reason behind this murder. It's best if you don't get involved with my student." Kamil said while shielding his student.
Dominic raised his eyebrow, he was not daft but he did not understand how he had anything to do with the murder case.
"It's like this. Trisha likes you and since you are close to this family, their daughter also likes you and so does her rich friend.
Now to kill three birds with one stone, she planned the murder to remove any obstacle from her way while pursuing you." Diana said, clearing the confusion in his head.
Dominic would be lying if he said he was not shocked.
"Are they mad?! I don't even like them."
His voice rising by a few decibels.
That was the sentence Caroline and Fria heard as they were escorted by the police.
"How could you!? My daughter loves you so much that she is willing to do anything. You are so cold hearted. If not because of you, my daughter would still be alive." Caroline screamed
Dominic took a deep breath to suppress the anger that threatened to erupt.
" I don't love her, have never loved her and never will. I didn't even give her any signal to show I was interested in her.
Sorry about my language, but she is not my type."
His harsh words made Caroline eyes light up and the deceased parents to react violently.
They would have pounced on him, if they weren't being held by police.
The police forcefully dragged them into the police car and drove away, leaving the four of them still standing.
"I wonder what they did as well?" his assistant muttered to himself which was heard by him.
"Drugs."
"What?!" Dominic felt he has had more surprise than he ever had today.
"That's true... How were you able to get such conclusive evidence?"
"A magician never reveals his tricks." She winked at him.
"Alright. We have to start going." Kamil said and entered the car.
Dominic was not daft, he could tell that Kamil did not want him around his student.
He watched as their car drove away. His eyes getting deeper and thoughtful with no one actually aware of his thoughts.
But one thing is sure, he was interested in Diana.
Entering his own car with his assistant, the driver immediately started the car and drove off.
.......
֎Zosia's POV֎
Entering the car with her teacher who seemed suddenly quiet. Zosia felt a little bit tensed as she had lied to her teacher about her background.
She had done all the changes related to her relationship with the Leverato family that if a background search was done, nothing would be found and now her teacher has found out about it, not from her but from someone else, it would be strange if he felt good about it.
"Explain" Kamil spoke, his voice hiding underlying coldness.
"I'am Sorry teach."
"For what?"
" For doing one of the things you hate most, lying."
"Since you know, why did you do it?"
........
At St. McLaren Hospital....
֎Cecilia's POV֎
Trisha looked at her mom and could not help but grumble.
"Mom, when will Dominic come to see me. I thought Dad already asked him to come."
Cecilia looked at her daughter who had a bandage around her head and her hatred towards
Diana increased.
If Diana hadn't run away, at least her husband's attention would still be on her and she could act as a lesser person for her daughter.
During the past four years, their lovely family could no longer be found especially with the interference of her mother-in-law and the past which she tried so hard to hide, trying to surface.
For the past one week, she had been on tenterhooks and didn't even dare act like she used to with her husband, she became docile and tried to rein in her temper and now her daughter question acted as a fuel for her already suppressed anger.
"All you know how to do is drink and chase Dominic up and down with little to no self respect attached to your name.
Are you not what you accused Diana of?
You don't even have self respect, you still open your legs to other men and still expect Dominic to like you.
You don't even listen to me again? You feel you are on top of the world.
You even dare to cause an accident and still act nonchalant."
Trisha frowned. Her eyes flashing with disgust.
"You talk like as if you were better. I wouldn't even be surprised, if I was told am not Dad's child. Besides, I learnt it from you." Trisha folded her arm while staring at Cecilia.
Yes, she likes Dominic but she never said she would give her virgin self to Dominic.
Dominic was not giving her the attention she needs and receiving it from someone else when Dominic hasn't accepted her, is okay. At least she isn't cheating.
"You brat, you think you can say anything to me. If not for me, would you be enjoying the life you are living now.
With this attitude, your father wouldn't give you the company to inherit."
Trisha calmed down, her mom words are not wrong and she isn't completely foolish either.
"Fine! Mom i'm sorry." Her eyes neither holding any sign of sincerity or wearing an apologetic look on face.
Cecilia scoffed as she stared at her daughter's unapologetic look.
"What kind of child did I give birth to?" She muttered to herself.
Her face wore a wry smile as she stared at her daughter.
"I Lost."
