Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 691

Jared's voice was cold, "Your mother is behind bars, why would Hammer frame you if you weren't the

one pulling the strings?"

"I don't know him that well, maybe he just doesn't like me. Back when we were at the Thomas family, I

was always giving him a hard time. Maybe he's just trying to get back at me?"

Jared scoffed, "But the surveillance footage from the Elysian Hotel shows you approaching Hammer,

and over the past few days, you've called him five times. How do you explain that?"

Beatrice was stunned.

She hadn't expected Jared to know every little detail, but she also knew that Hammer had failed.

He was now in police custody.

That bastard had actually sold her out.

Fear gnawed at Beatrice's insides, but she knew she couldn't confess now.

If Jared found out she wanted to harm Agnes, everything would be over.

However, Beatrice was filled with rage, she didn't expect Agnes to survive again this time.

Stepping forward, Beatrice grabbed Jared's arm, "You are my brother-in-law. I swear I didn't do

anything, you have to believe me. You know I've forgotten everything, right? Why would I harm my

sister, I don't remember anything."

"If you've really forgotten everything, why do you still call him brother-in-law?"

Agnes' voice drifted over from a distance.

Beatrice turned, staring blankly at the figure standing in the doorway.

Agnes pushed the bedroom door wide open and walked towards them.

Jared shook off Beatrice's hand and walked towards Agnes, "You're awake, why didn't you sleep a bit

longer? Are you feeling better?"

Beatrice stared blankly at Agnes.

"Playing the amnesia card doesn't work anymore. Just because he didn't expose you doesn't mean

he's a fool. Beatrice, have you truly forgotten everything? Even the car accident you caused four years

ago?"

At these words, Beatrice began to tremble.

She pointed at Agnes, "Agnes, you promised to let that go."

Back then, she had agreed to steal money from Agnes' Swiss bank account, and Agnes had promised

to forget about the accident and never mention it in front of Jared.

But now, this vixen had gone back on her word.

Beatrice only realized she had inadvertently confessed after she spoke.

Her gaze flitted anxiously to Jared.

Jared's gaze had turned into the familiar cold and disdain.

At that moment, Beatrice knew. It was over. Everything was over.

Agnes had walked up to Beatrice.

"Why are you so desperate for me to die, continually trying to kill me? Why, Beatrice, why are you so

cruel?"

Beatrice pushed Agnes back with force, almost shouting, "Because I can't stand to see you alive! You

ruined my life and took everything from me - my father's love, his love... Why should you have the best

things in the world? Agnes, I envy you, I hate you, I want to take back everything you have."

These weren't the first time Agnes had heard these words from Beatrice.

But hearing them four years later was a different experience.

Back then, she was deeply hurt. But now, she was numb.

"I never took anything from you. What I have never belonged to you to begin with, Beatrice. I forgave

you time and time again, but you refuse to repent."All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
