Chapter 670 Agnes moved closer, and Laura handed her a cup of tea. âThis is a fine white tea, your fatherâs favorite. Itâs been aged for seven years. Thereâs a saying about white tea, you know. First year itâs just tea, by the third year itâs like medicine, and by the seventh itâs a treasure. When I left Willowbrook Town, I didnât take much with me, except some tea your father cherished. Iâve kept them as mementos all these years. It seems fitting to serve it to you now.â
Agnes bristled at Lauraâs casual mention of her father.
âLaura, my father was good to you. How could treat him like that back then? Regardless of everything, he was Beatriceâs father.
Your ruthlessness is unbearable.â
Laura chuckled. âYouâre talking about your fatherâs car accident, arenât you? I didnât arrange that, Berlin did. I shared a bed with your father for ten years, and I knew he was always thinking about your mother. He never truly saw me as his wife. But I did have feelings for him. I got tired, I admit, and yes, I moved on to Berlin. But I never wanted to harm your father. Berlin was the impatient one who staged the accident. Agnes, if you want revenge, go after Berlin. I heard his car had some trouble recently.
Was that your doing? An eye for an eye?â
Agnes smiled as she said, âLaura, youâre quite the artist, shifting blame so effortlessly. I bet you did the same with Berlin, blaming everything on me while you sat back and watched the fight.â
Laura took a sip of her tea. âYouâre too clever for your own good.âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...
Agnes began, âI have a clear understanding of what happened to my father. You donât need to explain, Laura. Iâm not here to talk about that today.â
Laura looked up at Agnes, âOh, you have other business?â
Agnes pulled out a Swiss bank transfer slip for five million. âDo you recognize this, Laura?â
Lauraâs eyes flickered when she saw the bank transfer, then she asked, âWhatâs this?â
Agnes laughed. âDonât play dumb with me, Laura. Beatrice got this from your personal safe. We both know whatâs this. Letâs cut the chase.â
Laura conceded, Agnes, you always say Iâm clever, but I must say, youâre even shrewder. You always manage to use people close to me, If Beatrice had half your brains, she wouldnât let you manipulate her like this.â
Agnes laughed. âIt seems youâre still upset about Beatrice catching you and Berlin in bed. Yes, I arranged that. I often wonder how a cunning fox like you could raise such a foolish daughter.â
Laura gave a resigned laugh. âIf only you were my daughter.â
âIâm not fortunate enough to be your daughter,â Agnes retorted sarcastically.
i Laura chuckled, âAlright, I wonât beat around the bush anymore. If you found the bank transfer, then you must have met Lundy.â
âThatâs correct. So, I now know for sure that it was you who framed my mother for corruption years ago. It was you who ruined her, not Alyssa. Four years ago, you reignited this feud because you had planned it all along. You intentionally misled me into thinking Alyssa was responsible for my motherâs death, causing a rift between me and the Whitfield family. Laura, was everything part of your plan?â
