Chapter 392 Laura said, âLook, Iâm just looking out for you. This whole thing is a real head scratcher. We canât say for sure if your mom was the one who embezzled or if Alyssa set her up Whatâs done is done, as long as it doesnât mess with your relationship But not long ago, Alyssa came to me, asking all sorts of questions about you and if you knew about your momâs past. This caused a big row between your dad and me. I thought itâs only right to let you know, to keep you on your toes. fm womed if Alyssa really had a hand in your momâs death, she might come after you, and your dad wouldnât let me tell you Heâs womed til affect you and Jared, plus, Starlight International Group is hanging on by the skin of their teeth thanks to the Tim Groupâs help, we have to tread lightly Agnes was taken aback, âWhat do you mean?â
Laura started to explain, âYour dad didnât want to tell you this, but Starlight International Group didnât get a bank loan, the Tim Group directly gave us a big sum of money to get us through the hard timesâ
Agnes was shocked.
Her father had given her the sum of money back He said it was a loan from a Japanese bank that saved Starlight International Group, but she hadnât expected it was the Tim Group that had stepped in Jared had never mentioned this.
Laura continued. â1 have a recording of a conversation I had with Alyssa, and youâll understand once you listen to itâ
recording Laura pulled out her phone and played a recording The recording began, Lauraâs voice clear and direct, âDid you make that 2 million donation?â
Alyssa responded, her tone laced with regret, âI owe Julia so much more than just an apology for that year. All I wanted was for her to feel the sting of humiliatio for her to finally admit her wrongs to me. But I never imagined that sheâd take her own life over a mere 2 million. The weight of that guilt has haunted me ever since, and facing it has been terrifying. Discovering that Agnes is Juliaâs daughter life has a twisted sense of ironyâ
The recording ended there Agnes could tell it was Alyssa and Lauraâs voices.
Agnes was shaking all over So the 2 million back then was indeed a trap set by Alyssa for her mother Agnes was fuming Laura said, âI know Iâm your stepmother, and you probably wonât believe anything I say or think I mean well. You can totally ask Alyssa about this, Iâm sure she wort deny it. But your dad is also right. Whatâs done is done, youâre already mamed to Jared.â
Agnes coldly said, âCut the act. You brought Beatrice into the picture from the start, the aim was to leak the fact about my momâs death and its link to Alyssa, sof start digging. You knew Iâd confront you sooner or later, thatâs why you recorded this conversation, waiting for me to fall into your trap, right? Your real goal is to use this old feud to mess with my relationship with Jared. Because Beatrice has feelings for Jared, you want me out of the picture so Beatrice can become Mrs. Whitfield, right?
Even if Alyssa was the culprit back then, you donât need to play the good guy in front of me. Everything thatâs happening now, youâve carefully orchestrated it, havenât you?â
