Chapter 460
When Agnes saw that comment, she felt like she had frozen solid, her spine chilled to the bone.
Alyssa attempted suicide by overdosing?
Agnes flashed back to the moment when Jared had just left, the fear in his eyes.
Without thinking, Agnes headed straight out the door, dashing towards Hope Hospital.
However, the hospital entrance was tightly sealed off by security, and reporters were crowded like ants.
If Agnes showed up now, she’d be the perfect target for a media feeding frenzy.
The word on the street was that she was the one who broke the story.
She hid in a comer for a while, overhearing a reporter saying, “I heard she was saved just in time, but she’s in a
pretty bad state mentally. No one knows the specifics yet. Tim almost had a heart attack when he found out.
They’ve been hiding this for so many years, and now it’s all out in the open. The Whitfield family’s reputation is
ruined.”

Alyssa’s suicide attempt
Back then, her own mother had been driven to suicide in desperation.
Now, Alyssa was experiencing what her mother had gone through, every bit of it.
She should have been happy for this, happy for her mother. I
The woman who had once framed her was now walking the same path, backed into a corner, her life devoid of
meaning.
But, Agnes couldn’t bring herself to feel any joy, only a profound sadness.
She wasn’t sure where this grief was coming from.
Maybe deep down, Agnes knew that the moment Alyssa attempted suicide, any emotional connection between her
and Jared was irrevocably severed.
Because Alyssa was Jared’s biological mother! Just as she hated Alyssa, Jared would end up despising her.
A smile tugged at the corners of Agnes‘ mouth, but tears were streaming down her face.

But after tossing and turning all night, Agnes hadn’t been able to make up her mind. Laura finally helped her make
the move, putting an end to her indecision.
But…
Agnes gently laid a hand on her stomach. “Baby, I’m sorry that you won’t have a father when you’re born, But I

In the end, Agnes returned to Pritchard Mansion.
Pritchard Mansion.
Last night, Beatrice didn’t come home.
This morning, she saw the explosive news.
She rushed back home and flung open Laura’s bedroom door.
Laura was applying makeup. Seeing Beatrice, she asked, “What’s the matter? You look frantic. I’ve told you

Beatrice pointed at the front page of an entertainment newspaper, saying, “What’s going on? Why did you tell our
