On Ned's birthday, Ingrid had looked at Angeline imperceptibly when she refused to attend Ned's birthday party. That was what had triggered Ned.
When Anne passed away, Ingrid stood in the doorway of the morgue and righteously rebuked Ned for pushing Anne, intending to make Angeline fall out with Ned completely.
Angeline knew it all.
She thought Ingrid had only used those means because she truly loved Ned.
After all, at that time, Angeline had already decided to dump Ned.
However, everyone in Oceanford knew Ingrid and Tommy were very close.
Tommy had been humiliating and bullying Angeline for over two years. She believed Ingrid wasn't the one who instructed Tommy. Ingrid didn't encourage Tommy, but she had always turned a blind eye to his doings and condoned his actions.
Because of her indulgence, Tommy ended up drugging Angeline and hiring people to bully Henrietta.
After Angeline fled from Emmerson Village, the tragedy began after she got involved with Ned and Ingrid.
She was in no hurry, though.
Angeline had promised Henrietta that she would avenge her, and she would never go back on her words.
None of them could escape.
Angeline let out a deep breath. She raised a hand to wipe away the tears from her eyes and started going through her materials again.
