Heartstrings On Fire

Chapter 672

Chapter 672

Laura was skilled at reading people/manipulating their emotions like a puppeteer.

She masterfully sowed discord and framed others, striking with precision.

Her mother had died from a profound misunderstanding and regret towards her father.

Her father never fully understood her mother until his death…

A heartbreaking tragedy had been orchestrated by Laura.

Laura, seeing Agnes almost lose control, maintained an unflinching smile, her face bearing an unwavering ease. As

if they were just two old friends catching up. Laura took a sip of her tea, “What’s the matter, Agnes? Do you want

to kill me?”

“I wish I could kill you right now,” Agnes admitted through gritted teeth.

Laura calmly replied, “But you won’t, because you have no proof. Murder is punishable, but causing others to kill is

the craftiest game in this world.”

“You’re not afraid I’ll record all this and take you to court?”

“Agnes, I know you studied journalism and always carry a recorder, but I also know you didn’t bring it today. We

agreed this was a confèssion session. If I thought you had brought any recording devices, I wouldn’t have said a

word.”

Laura was right. She was smart and meticulous.

There was an infrared detector at her office door.

Any running recording devices or cell phones would be detected.

Laura brewed another pot of tea, continuing, “Now that I’ve confessed everything, it’s your turn. How did you find

out that your father’s car accident was related to me and Berlin? And how did you break Berlin’s car?“.

Agnes began, “I found photos of you and Berlin having an affair in my dad’s drawer. The date on the photos was

the day before my dad’s accident. I started to suspect that his accident was not accidental but premeditated. As for

Berlin’s car, yes, I had someone tamper with it. My goal was to recreate the method you used years ago and make

him suspect you. The photos he received of you and Hammer were also my doing. However, I spared him so he

could survive.”

“You didn’t spare him out of kindness, but to use him against me. To have us destroy each other. Agnes, your tactics

are just as vile.”

“Even at my worst, I’m nowhere near as bad as you, Laura.”

Laura rose from her seat and walked behind. Agnes, placing a hand on her shoulder, “We were mother and

daughter once, even though you never saw me as your mother. Agnes, it’s better to resolve grudges than to hold

onto them. I’m getting old, and you’ve managed to ruin my reputation. Let’s put the past behind us. There’s no

deep hatred between us. I admit I was responsible for your mother’s ending, but her suicide was due to depression.

She couldn’t cope, and you can’t blame that entirely on me. Your father’s accident was Berlin’s doing. You’ve

avenged them by ruining me.”
