Chapter 268 Laraâs face changed dramatically when she heard what Agnes said, âQuit talking nonsense here or Iâll get a lawyer and sue you for defamation.â
âMrs. Lara, you can certainly get a lawyer, but your reputation will be completely ruined by then.â
Agnes pulled out a voice recorder from her pocket. Laraâs voice could be heard clearly from the recorder, âSo what if I pushed you down the stairs? You should have died when you were five, but you were lucky and escapedâ
Lara looked at her in shock, âYou actually secretly recorded me?â
Then she pointed her finger at Mamie, âIs this a trap you set?â
Agnes replied, âMrs. Lara, unfortunately, Iâm a journalism student. Carrying a voice recorder is part of my job. Now, this is the evidence of your crime.â
Although Laraâs hand was immovable, she stood up and rushed towards Agnes, trying to grab the recorder.
But Agnes moved quickly and easily dodged her.
Lara collided with the edge of the bed and screamed in pain again.
Agnes coldly asked, âAre you not leaving yet, or do you want me to hand over the evidence to the police right now? I will give this recording to Mamie. This is a matter for the Bartley family. I donât want to interfere. You better hope she is forgiving enough to let you go.â
Lara gritted her teeth. She never thought that after bullying Mamie for so many years, she would now be caught in the act.
Agnes kindly reminded her, âIf you donât get a doctor to fix your arm soon, I canât guarantee there wonât be any after-effects.â
Lara didnât dare to underestimate the situation and had to leave first.
The room suddenly quieted down, Agnes looked at the woman in the corner, who seemed completely different from the Mamie she knew.
Her hard shell was gone, like a hedgehog without its quills.
For a moment, Agnes didnât know what to say She placed the recorder in front of Mamie, âAlthough her actions were attempted murder, Iâm afraid the statute of limitations has passed, so calling the police now is useless. However, I think you can give the recording to Ivan.â
Mamie slowly looked up. Although she was trembling, her eyes were still cold, âWhat are you doing here, to laugh at me?â
Agnes replied, âIf I wanted to laugh at you, I wouldnât have come in here. If I had taken out my phone earlier and secretly recorded a video to put online, that would be laughing at youâ
Mamie bit her lip, hugged her knees, and turned her head to the side.
Usually, Mamie wore glamorous and aloof makeup, looking stunning and radiant.
At that moment, she was barefaced but still beautiful.
She looked a few years younger, without the majesty of a celebrity.
Agnes lightly bit her lip, âActually, I came to ask you something today. But since youâre not in a good mood and donât want to see me, Iâll go nowâ
Just as Agnes turned to leave, Mamie suddenly called out to her.
Agnes turned back and asked, âWhatâs up?â
Mamie still looked indifferent, âWhat do you want to ask me?â
