Agnes was blunt, "Ms. Laura, please leave the Pritchard family within three days. Wish you all the best, more power to you."
After saying that, Agnes turned and left.
Beatrice cursed from behind, "You bitch, I'm our father's daughter too, why should you get all the house? Agnes, you're dreaming if you think I'm going to let you hog all the Pritchard family wealth. Just you wait!"
Laura held back Beatrice, "Why argue with her right now? Now that she has our weakness, we have to bow. But judging from her state, she's probably under pressure from the Whitfield family too. Let's bide our time, wait for this storm to pass, then we'll deal with her."
Laura was furious at Agnes.
Everything she had carefully planned was ruined by Agnes.
Now the company was in her hands, and she couldn't take away a penny of the family wealth.
That woman was ruthless.
But luckily, she had gained the trust of Berlin Thomas.
As long as she could become Mrs. Thomas, she wouldn't even care about the Whitfield family.
Once back in her room, Agnes felt utterly drained.
She lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, feeling like she had no strength left.
She really had no strength left.
She had no energy to fight with Laura or to investigate further.
Her father was in this state, plus she was pregnant, Agnes felt like she was at a crossroads in life, unsure of what to do.
Laura had cut off her retreat.
Agnes thought maybe that was for the best.
If she had to choose, whichever path she chose would be incredibly painful.
Maybe it was a good thing to give up completely.
After all, she couldn't turn back now.
Alyssa turned out to be Jared's biological mother...
Agnes found it incredibly ironic.
No wonder, every time Alyssa looked at Jared, it was as if she was looking at her own child.
She initially thought they just had a strong sibling bond.
