**Chapter 60**

As Nyla concluded her statement, she felt a sense of relief wash over her, believing she could finally leave the oppressive atmosphere of the police station. Just as she turned to exit, a firm hand on her arm made her pause.

“Ms. Jayston,” the officer said, his voice steady yet insistent, “the suspect has requested to see you. She insists she won’t say a word until you’re present. Can you please cooperate and speak with her?”

Nyla’s brow furrowed in suspicion, a nagging feeling creeping into her mind that Lucia might have a hidden agenda, one that could complicate matters further.

Noticing her hesitation, the officer tried to reassure her. “I understand your concerns. But don’t worry; there will be a glass barrier between you. She won’t be able to harm you in any way.”

With a reluctant sigh, Nyla nodded. “Alright then. I’ll do it.”

As she walked down the sterile corridor, her heart raced slightly, a mix of apprehension and curiosity coursing through her veins. Upon reaching the designated room, she found Lucia already seated on the opposite side of the glass, her demeanor unnervingly calm. It was as if she relished the moment, knowing that no matter how much animosity she harbored towards Nyla, she was now powerless.

Nyla picked up the phone, her voice frosty as she addressed Lucia. “What do you want to say to me?”

Lucia’s lips curled into a smirk, a glimmer of malice dancing in her eyes. “Nyla, do you really think you’ve won this battle?”

Nyla met her gaze with a steely indifference, her expression betraying nothing. In fact, she found herself pondering the absurdity of feeling any hatred towards Lucia. It seemed excessive, even pointless.

“You’re overthinking things. I’ve never aimed to win against anyone, least of all you. Your own greed and extremism have led to your downfall,” Nyla replied, her tone unwavering.

Lucia’s laughter was sharp and derisive. “What I despise most is your cold indifference while you exploit every opportunity that comes your way.”

As Nyla looked into Lucia’s eyes, filled with a manic obsession, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Lucia had truly lost her grip on reality.
