Chapter 236

Janet looked at Agnes, frozen, her eyes wide with alarm.

…What was Agnes doing here?!

Had Agnes found out what she was up to already?

“What was with that horrified face?” Agnes raised an eyebrow, “And what were you looking at?”

Keavy’s medical record was still lying on the floor, at Janet’s feet.

Janet took a small step back and kicked the file with her heel.

The file slid right underneath the shelves.

She didn’t want Agnes to know that she was tracing this lead until she could find some concrete proof.

“Shouldn’t I be horrified? Last time we saw each other, you fucking tried to kill me!” Janet hissed, “What are you doing here now? Finish up your undone job?”

“Look, Janet,” said Agnes, unsmiling, “We probably have a misunderstanding-”

Before she finished, another series of heavy footsteps came into the archive room.

Clemente came dashing in.

He glanced at Janet and then directed his gaze to Agnes.

“Why didn’t you wait for me?” he said in a complaint kind of tone.

Now Janet was truly starting to get nervous.

She could probably take down Agnes by herself. Agnes was just a delicate lady, nothing to be worried about.

But Agnes plus Clemente?

She would have zero chance of escaping.

“Clemente.”

She stared at Clemente, clenching her fists behind her.

“I thought you said that you were done with this mess. So what are you and Agnes doing here? Trying to betray the King’s order again?“.

Clemente looked stunned.

“What? No! You–You got this all wrong!”

He took a hasty step forward.

Seeing the tensed look on Janet’s face, he withdrew his feet and dragged Agnes to Janet’s face.

“We are not here to hurt you! It is the complete opposite…Agnes is here to apologize,” said him urgently.

…Apologize?

For a brief moment, Janet thought that she had probably heard it wrong.

It was so ridiculous that she couldn’t even believe her own ears.

Janet let out a loud, sarcastic laugh. “You? Want to apologize?”

“…Yes, I do.”
