Chapter 326
Agnes stared at her in disbelief, “What did you just say?”
Laura walked in, and her usual affability seemed completely gone. Her tone was laced with sharp sarcasm, “I said
Julia got what was coming to her. She brought it on herself.”
“I won’t let you insult my mother!”
Agnes was teetering on the edge of losing control.
Her mother had been dead for ten years, why was she still being insulted by the woman who had caused her
death?
“Your mother was exposed to scandal, attacked by all sides, and finally committed suicide in shame, which has

Agnes was clueless about what this woman was prattling on about, but every word out of Laura’s mouth made her
want to hurl
Agnes tried to keep her cool, “You better make yourself clear, or I won’t care if you’re my elder. I won’t let you off.”
Laura was about to retort when Preston suddenly cut in, “Don’t bring up the past in front of the kid.”
Laura was seething.
“Why can’t I say it? After all these years, have I ever treated your daughter badly? I treated her like my own, gave
her the best of everything, and all I get back is that woman’. Preston, haven’t I shouldered enough blame? I’ve had
it. I, Laura, will not tolerate this injustice”
Preston was also fuming but couldn’t stop Laura.
Laura let it all out, “Your mother used Starlight International Group’s name for charity, setting up the Angelic Wings
charity fund. But she pocketed the funds that were meant for disaster-stricken children. When the truth came out,
she ended her life out of shame. How was her death my fault? I knew your father when I was young, but we were
genuinely in love, and I never once tried to break up his family. I silently devoted ten years to this man, gave birth
to his children. What was after? And yet you blame your mother’s death on me. How can I take away the guilt of
this murderer? I’m not a pushover!”
Agnes was in denial, “You’re lying, you’re deceiving. My mother would never do such a thing.”
Agnes refused to believe it. She would rather die than believe it.
Her mother was such a kind person.
She was always charitable, donating to orphanages, earning everyone’s respect.
She changed the lives of so many children, and Justin being one of the beneficianes,

She absolutely refused to believe her mother could do such a thing
Laura sneered, “Even though it’s been a decade, because it involves political corruption, the news was suppressed
by the government. But it was a well-known scandal in the entertainment industry. If you want to verify, you can still
find some clues from ten years ago. If you don’t believe me, go check it out for yourself, see if I’ve told a single lie!”
Agnes’s eyes were red-rimmed, her body trembling.
Preston stormed over, gripping Laura’s arm tightly, “I told you to stop. Agnes is just a kid, why are you making her
bear all this?”
Laura defiantly shot back, “So she shouldn’t bear it, but I should carry false accusations? She’s an adult now, she
should take responsibility. Her mother was nothing more than a fake do-gooder, and she got what she deserved in
the end…
“Smack!”
With a crisp sound, Preston’s hand landed a harsh slap on Laura’s face.
