Heartstrings on Fire Chapter 564

Chapter 564 

Finding the safe in the room wasn’t hard, Laura had stashed it in the closet of the dressing room 

Agnes had already hollered at Nate remotely. 

In less than five minutes, Nate had remotely cracked the safe’s code 

Agnes was a bit nerves. She didn’t have too much time. 

She had sneaked in while the nanny was busy changing bed sheets. 

The room was going to be locked up soon. 

Agnes quickly eyeballed the stuff inside, there were a lot of jewels and bling, and some contracts and paperwork. 

But Agnes couldn’t find the money transfer receipt she was after. 

Agnes didn’t have time to ponder, she quickly tidied up the stuff, put it back in the safe and bolted out of the room. 

As soon as Agnes stepped out, she ran into Kevin. 

Kevin had just seen Agnes coming out of Laura’s room. 

One hand of Agnes was still on the doorknob, she got the jitters. 

What a coincidence, she was caught red–handed. 

Kevin gave Agnes the once–over, “What were you doing in Laura’s room?” 

Agnes smiled, “I came to see Ms. Laura, but she wasn’t in.” 

Kevin chuckled, “I noticed you go in. You were in there for 12 minutes. Did it really take you that long to figure out no one was there?” 

Agnes frowned, “Are you spying on me?” 

“Not spying, just curious.” 

After a moment of silence, Agnes broke into a grin, “Kevin, you would keep this secret for me, right? We’re friends after all.” 

Kevin raised an eyebrow, “We just met yesterday, Ms. Agnes.” 

Agnes kept on smiling, “I’m friends with Justin, and given your relationship with Justin, we can be friends too.” 

Mentioning Justin, Kevin’s face changed instantly, “You know Justin?” 

“We’re pretty tight. I even know his private cell number.” 

Agnes thought to herself, “Sorry Justin, I had to throw you under the bus.” 

Kevin was silent for a moment, then said, “Deal.” 

Agnes didn’t propose any deal, but they both knew the score. 

Kevin’s gaze softened a bit, “If you’re looking for something valuable, Ms. Laura keeps all her important stuff in her office safe, not here.” 

Kevin was sharp, he had guessed her intention. 

Agnes said, “Thanks for the tip.” 

After parting with Kevin, Agnes planned to head back to her room. 

Her cold seemed to have gotten worse, her head was buzzing. 

She didn’t find what she wanted, she couldn’t stir up more trouble. 

Just as she reached her room, Beatrice came out of hers. 

Ironically, for the past ten years, when she was at the Pritchard family villa, her room was opposite Beatrice’s. 

And now, Beatrice’s room was opposite her guest room. 

Seeing Agnes looking sick, Beatrice felt a perverse sense of satisfaction. 

It was Beatrice who had Hammer put Agnes in the attic with no air conditioning or heating. 

The blanket she gave Agnes was thin. 

Agnes spending the night in the chilly attic and not getting sick would have been strange. 

Beatrice walked over and said, “Agnes, if you have any sense, you’d leave and go back to where you came from. Stop causing trouble.” 

Of course Beatrice wanted Agnes to leave. 

As long as she was around, Jared’s heart would be occupied by her. 

Agnes just smiled and said, “You want me to disappear without a trace like I did four years ago?”
