Love After Leaving: No Regret (Agnes and Raymond) novel Chapter 271

Chapter 271 In Your Dreams

Still, watching her grow stronger and better by the day, he couldn’t help but feel proud of her deeply.

During this time, Neal went to see Agnes several times, but she turned him away every time with different excuses.

She didn’t want to leave him any room for false hope.

Even though she didn’t agree with what Emily had said, she knew there should be some distance between her and Neal.

He was an outstanding man. He really shouldn’t waste his time and energy on something that was never going to work.

So Agnes chose to avoid him.

That day, after finishing everything, Agnes dragged her exhausted body back to the Newton Estate.

After visiting Sabrina, she sank into the bathtub to relax.

Suddenly, her phone rang sharply beside her.

She picked it up, and a very familiar female voice came through.

“Agnes, it’s been a while. How have you been?”

Agnes had been resting with her eyes closed, but the moment she heard that voice, she sat upright, instantly on guard without even asking who it was.

“Rebecca?”

Rebecca let out a soft laugh. “Agnes, we really are like sisters. You recognized my voice right away.”

Ever since Rebecca escaped from the police car, Agnes had known that sooner or later, she would come looking for her again.

When Agnes didn’t respond, Rebecca spoke casually.

“What’s wrong, Agnes? Aren’t you happy to hear my voice?

“We went through so much together all those years. No matter what, there’s still something between us.

“Even after everything you did to me, I still miss you. Heh.”

Agnes said, “Where are you?”

Rebecca sneered, “What is it, Agnes? You want to see me? Do you miss me too?”

Agnes let out a cold laugh.

“Rebecca, just say what you want. What are you trying to do?”

Rebecca replied, “Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing. You keep coming after me. What are you trying to do?”

Agnes asked, “I’m coming after you? I’ve already shown you more mercy than you deserved.

“You just won’t give up. You keep coming back to cause trouble.

“What, because I didn’t crush you, you can’t live with yourself?”

Rebecca burst out laughing on the other end.

“Wow, then. You’ve been going easy on me all this time. I’m so grateful.

“Rebecca, the way you lie to yourself is just pathetic.”

Agnes slowly let the smile fade, her voice turning cold with disdain.

“Since you have no intention of changing or turning yourself in, there’s no reason for us to meet.

“Take care of yourself, Rebecca.”

The smug look on Rebecca’s face darkened instantly. She hated how everyone kept mocking her background.

No matter how hard she tried to escape it, they never let her forget.

Again and again, they dug into the deepest wound she had and rubbed salt into it.

Rebecca cut in sharply, “Wait, Agnes.”

Agnes shot her down. “Don’t call me again. There’s nothing left to say between us.

“If I were you, I’d be praying every day not to get caught.”

Rebecca’s expression went cold, her voice like ice.

“Give me back my daughter.”

Agnes let out a short laugh.

“In your dreams. You don’t deserve to be her mother. She’s doing just fine with me.”
