Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 374

 

Chapter 374 

She didn’t dare to take revenge on Mamie, but she dumped all her anger on Agnes. 

Agnes looked indifferent: “Beatrice, there’s been a question bugging me, do you really hate me that much? Are you trying to corner me? Was it you who drugged my drink last night, locked me in the rest room, and called the press? What the hell are you up to?” 

Beatrice didn’t expect Agnes to see through her plan. 

Beatrice denied it: “Agnes, quit your nonsense, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Drugging your drink? Are you trying to smear my name?” 

Agnes gave a cold laugh and pulled out a lock from her bag. “This is the lock that was used to lock me in the rest room yesterday. Is it yours?” “Agnes, you’re losing it. I’ve never seen that thing before.” 

“Are you sure you’ve never seen it?” 

“Agnes, I have no idea what you’re talking about” 

“But it has your fingerprints on it, I’ve already had it checked by a forensics expert 

Beatrice felt a bit uneasy. 

When Agnes said she had the lock checked, Beatrice immediately panicked. 

If Agnes really found evidence about what happened last night and told Jared… 

Then she would be in real trouble. 

Beatrice blurted out, “Agnes, you’re being ridiculous. You got this lock from some random store and now you’re getting it checked? Even if it has my fingerprints on it, so what? Oh yeah, I just remembered, I did buy a lock once, but I lost it, maybe this is the one. I had no idea if someone picked it up and used it to lock you in, or to frame me. You’re not planning to slander me, are you?” 

In fact, Beatrice didn’t care about Agnes’s suspicions 

Whether she was suspicious or sure, as long as she firmly denied it, Agnes couldn’t threaten her. 

“Beatrice, don’t you think your excuse is a bit of a stretch?” 

“Agnes, do whatever you want, I already told you it wasn’t met 

“I didn’t want to pursue this matter, but since you said it wasn’t you, I don’t need to consider the reputation of the Pritchard family. I’ll hand all the evidence to the police. Oh, and there’s no surveillance outside the rest room, but there is outside our private room. Whoever went in and out of the room last night and at what time… it’s easy to find out who wanted to harm me. And that waiter at the hotel, he wouldn’t go to the rest room for no reason. Let him go to the police station and, make a statement… 

“Agnes, what are you trying to do?” 

Beatrice was completely panicked 

Beatrice also knew that what she did yesterday was not well planned. 

If it was investigated thoroughly, she couldn’t escape the blame 

But yesterday, she was confident she would succeed.
