Love After Leaving: No Regret (Agnes and Raymond) novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244 A Carefully Laid Trap

“I’ve heard you’ve built quite a successful career over the years. Could you help us? I really had no ch but to come to you.

“These past few days, Monica and I have gone through every contact the Hales know.

“And those people… Sigh, they’ve all been avoiding us…”

Monica’s expression darkened as she cursed, “A bunch of opportunistic snakes! Back then, they couldn’ up to us enough.

“Now that something’s gone wrong, they’re all hiding like cowards!

“They’re treating us like we’re contagious. A bunch of spineless, backstabbing parasites!”

Agnes lowered her gaze, thinking for a moment before asking, “What’s the company’s situation right now What about the rest of the board?”

Bianca said, “This crisis is too big. Most of the board has already pulled out.”

She gave a bitter smile and shook her head.

“When disaster strikes, everyone looks out for themselves. Now, we can only rely on ourselves.”

Agnes said, “Have you contacted a lawyer? For an investment this large, didn’t you do a background check on the other party?”

Mónica snapped, “What do you think? Of course we did! We’ve even worked with them before!

“There were no issues all those times. Who knew this time they’d pull something like this?

dad!

“You’ve built such a successful career. You have connections. I believe you have the ability to save the Hal

“You’re part of the Hales too. You can’t just stand by and watch your dad go to prison.

“You can’t watch the Hales collapse like this… Sob…”

Agnes stood there, her brows tightly furrowed, saying nothing.

Seeing her silence, Monica let out a cold laugh, her eyes filled with disdain.

As Monica spoke, she grew more agitated, pointing at Agnes and lashing out, “Agnes! That’s your dad too! He searched for you and your mother for years! He’s already given you what you deserve!

“Besides, those contracts are flawless on the surface.

“No matter how smart she thinks she is, she won’t find a single flaw.”

Bianca glanced around cautiously before asking in a low voice, “What about the Hales’ assets? Is everything handled? Nothing went wrong, right?”

Monica said, “Everything is progressing smoothly. No one will notice.

“Who would suspect us of sabotaging ourselves?”

Suddenly, she turned to look at Calvin inside the room, a sneer curling at her lips.

“When the time comes, that idiot, Agnes, will definitely pour all her money into saving Dad and the Hales.

“And then… I’ll wipe everything out in one move! I’ll make her disappear from Grandridge!”

Monica turned back and saw Bianca still hesitating. She clicked her tongue in annoyance.

“Mom, what are you still hesitating for? You still can’t let go of that old man?

“Open your eyes and look at him. He doesn’t care about you! He’s ready to hand everything in the Háles over to that woman!”

Bianca’s eyes reddened as she looked into the hospital room. “But I…”
