Chapter 692 Beatrice seemed to border on madness. âWhat a joke, thatâs because Iâve never regretted anything, Agnes. Youâre relentless, arenât you? You came back just to get even with us, didnât you? I know you wonât let me off, so as long as youâre alive, Iâll never have peace. Agnes, why does God always favor you? If you were gone, everyone else could be at peace. If you were gone, none of this would have happened. My mother wouldnât end up in jail, and I wouldnât end up like this. Itâs all because of you.â Beatriceâs words grew more passionate as she spoke. Her eyes were bloodshot, her face twisted in rage, as if she wanted to turn into a wild beast and pounce on Agnes Agnes looked at Beatrice, her face calm. Agnes spoke coldly, âBeatrice, these are just excuses your greedy and selfish nature came up with. Why did your mother end up in jail? Because sheâs ruthless and conscienceless. She plotted to kill my father for her own gains. She shared a bed with him for ten years, how could she bear to do it? Doesnât such an evil person deserve punishment? Eight years? Eight years is too lenient for what she did. My mother and fatherâs lives, even if she died a hundred times, she couldnât atone for that!â When she brought this up, Beatriceâs shoulders started to shake slightly. She just couldnât imagine someone could be so heartless and unscrupulous. Beatrice roared at Agnes, This is all your doing! You framed my mother for killing my father, it was you, you tramp, who played dirty! My mother would never kill my fatherâ
Agnes sneered, âIs that what Laura told you? Beatrice, if youâd just use your head for once, could I have possibly faked those evidences? The audio evidence revealed by Vernon, did I fake that too? Your mother hired the best attorney in the Capital, and even he advised her to plead guilty to lessen the sentence. Do you still think Iâve falsely accused her?â Beatriceâs face changed slowly. There were many things she didnât want to think about, just to make herself feel a little better. She would rather believe Laura was innocent, even if it meant deceiving herself. But Agnes just ruthlessly exposed the truth. And the truth was nothing but ugly facts. Agnes moved closer to Beatrice, âBeatrice, deep down, you know all of this is true, donât you? You just canât admit it, canât accept that your mother killed our father. You blame everything on me, just to avoid facing the truth. Your mother is a murderer, and so are you.â âIâm not! Iâm not. Youâre the one who should die!â Beatrice suddenly roared in despair, then took a step back, collapsing onto the couch. Agnes stepped forward, grabbing Beatriceâs chin, âBeatrice, I wonât let you off that easy this time. Since youâre unrepentant, letâs settle both old scores and new.â Beatriceâs eyes were full of fear, âWhat are you planning to do? You canât make me go to jail, Agnes, Iâd rather die than go to jail.â The mere thought of being locked up in a dark, gloomy place terrified Beatrice. Agnes looked at Beatrice, âEven if you go to jail, I donât want you wearing my face.â Beatrice was even more scared, âWhat are you going to do? What the hell are you planning?â Agnes suddenly stood up, a smile playing on her lips, seemingly gentle, âBeatrice, I think you looked better before. Do you want to fix it yourself, or should I help you?â
