Chapter 470
Agnes had just stepped out of the bathroom when Beatrice walked in.
First thing Beatrice said when she came upstairs was, “Agnes, did you get a divorce? Was it with Jared?”
Agnes responded coldly, “This isn’t your home anymore. Give me back my keys or I’m changing the locks.”
Beatrice chuckled, “Agnes, don’t worry. I’m not here to fight over the estate. I’m sick of this old dump. But I need to know, did you divorce Jared?”
A hint of urgency showed on Beatrice’s face.
The only thing she cared about right now was whether Agnes was divorced.
It seemed to have turned into an obsession.
She had just seen Jared dropping Agnes off.
But he didn’t come in.
What does it mean when Jared wasn’t by Agnes‘ side at this delicate time?
There must be a problem between them.
Agnes had no interest in answering Beatrice.
She turned and walked towards her room.
But Beatrice followed her.
She ran into Agnes‘ room and started rummaging through stuff.
Agnes was pissed, “Beatrice, what the hell are you doing?”
Beatrice, panicking, asked, “Where’s your divorce agreement, Agnes? I bet you and Jared are divorced, right? Right?”
Agnes walked up and grabbed Beatrice’s hand, “Beatrice, get out. Don’t cause a scene here. Whether I’m divorced or not is my business, none of yours.” Beatrice didn’t dare to mess with Agnes now.
Because Agnes knew a lot about Laura’s secrets.
If Laura found out she was bothering Agnes again, she’d get an earful.
She just followed Jared’s car here, couldn’t resist, came to confirm.
But seeing Agnes looking angry, Beatrice had her answer.
A smirk appeared on Beatrice’s lips, “Who said it’s none of my business? Just you wait, Agnes. One day I’ll replace you as Mrs. Whitfield.”
Beatrice left cheerfully.
Seeing her smug face, Agnes found it ironic.
Their father had only passed away a few days ago, but all Beatrice cared about was whether she and Jared were divorced.
After a while, life returned to its brief normalcy.
Agnes was thinking about going back to her grandmother’s in the countryside.
But she was worried about her health.
She couldn’t eat anything now, had no appetite at all.
She didn’t dare to go to the hospital directly, as numerous eyes were watching her.
Kerri moved in to stay with her.
She also took care of her.
Kerri was a medical student, knew a lot more.
She cooked some thick soup in the evening.
