“I think it is Agnes,” said Janet coolly.

Chapter 237

Telling Clemente seemed like a reckless move since he was on Agnes’s side right now and was very loyal to her..

But Janet had thought this through already.

First of all, she needed an errand boy.

This was the Lycan’s kingdom. She needed someone from the inside to conduct her investigation.

Clemente was a general, a very capable soldier. He was the perfect choice.

Second, Clemente was only loyal to Agnes because of his brother Keavy.

When he found out that Agnes had something to do with Keavy’s death, that loyalty would be gone by then.

Telling Clemente was a gamble.

But a worthy one.

“…Agnes?”

Clemente repeated in a strange tone as though there was a stone stuck in his throat.

“Agnes?!…No. No, Janet, you are crazy! She is my brother’s mate! They were a perfect couple. Everybody knew that! Do you know how devastated Agnes was when she lost my brother?!”

“I didn’t. All I know is that sadness can be faked. And Agnes is a very good actress,” said Janet icily.

Clemente glared at her, “You are only saying this because you hold a grudge against Agnes! Because she tried to kill you! But this and my brother’s death are completely two different things-”

“They are not!” Janet snarled, “Agnes did both of these things for the same reason–Westin! She wanted me dead because she couldn’t be with Westin with me.

his mate, still alive. And the same goes for Keavy…”

“FUCK!”

Clemente threw a punch at the shelves, which wobbled and a couple of files fell off.

He stared at Janet with bloodshot eyes.

Anger and pain gleamed in his eyes.

“I don’t care if you are the King’s mate and the Queen,” he hissed. “But if you say another word of groundless bullshit, I will fucking hit you!”

He was furious. His world just turned upside down.

But Janet knew that he wouldn’t hit her.

He was too nice for that.

“It isn’t groundless. And it isn’t bullshit!” Janet snapped, “Agnes framed me for Elder Randy’s incident! She was behind Elder Randy’s poison. And if Elder Randy and

Keavy share the same symptoms, she must be responsible for Keavy’s death as well! Just connect the dots here-”

“Can you prove that Agnes poisoned Elder Randy?!”

Janet bit her lips, frustrated.
