Female Novel
Chapter 120
On Ned's birthday, Ingrid had looked at Angeline imperceptibly when she refused to attend Ned'sbirthday party. That was what had triggered Ned.
When Anne passed away, Ingrid stood in the doorway of the morgue and righteously rebuked Nedfor pushing Anne, intending to make Angeline fall out with Ned completely.
Angeline knew it all.
She thought Ingrid had only used those means because she truly loved Ned.
After all, at that time, Angeline had already decided to dump Ned.
However, everyone in Oceanford knew Ingrid and Tommy were very close.
Tommy had been humiliating and bullying Angeline for over two years. She believed Ingrid wasn'tthe one who instructed Tommy. Ingrid didn't encourage Tommy, but she had always turned a blindeye to his doings and condoned his actions.
Because of her indulgence, Tommy ended up drugging Angeline and hiring people to bullyHenrietta.
After Angeline fled from Emmerson Village, the tragedy began after she got involved with Ned andIngrid.
She was in no hurry, though.
Angeline had promised Henrietta that she would avenge her, and she would never go back on herwords.
None of them could escape.
Angeline let out a deep breath. She raised a hand to wipe away the tears from her eyes and startedgoing through her materials again.
She had asked Ned just now if he had anything else against her to check if he had truly regainedhis memories.
Just as she had expected, Ned could only remember parts of them, but he had yet to regain all hismemories.
That was why Ned had no idea about her real relationship with the Lawson family.
Ned was merely bluffing in the hotel room of River Town.
Even if Ned regained all his memories, he might not know who Angeline's biological mother was.
After all, when Sean had come to talk to her on that Christmas night eight years ago, Ned might nothave heard the whole conversation while he was eavesdropping.
After seeing Angeline, Ned went back to his room and called Ingrid's manager, Linda. He told herthat the matter had been resolved.
"Has Ms. Emmerson signed the non-disclosure agreement?" Linda asked tentatively.
"She didn't, and she doesn't want the endorsement fees or any other compensation." Ned pinchedhis forehead tiredly. "Let's just end this here."novelbin
"How could this be, Mr. Fletcher? If Ms. Emmerson didn't sign the non-disclosure agreement, thiswould be a ticking time bomb for Ingrid. It'll go off at any time!" Linda would prefer it if Angelinewanted money. As long as Angeline took the money, they could push the blame on her if theincident was exposed.
"With Angeline's personality, if she said that she won't reveal it, then she won't!"
On the other end of the phone, Ingrid stood next to Linda. When she heard how irritated hesounded, she took the phone from Linda and said gently, "You've worked hard, Ned! I'm sorry forcausing you such trouble this time. I believe in Angie, so don't listen to Linda! I'm planning to meetMr. Norwalk when I get a chance so that I can explain to him. I can't take the credit for what Angiedid."
Ned softened when he heard her. "I know that you've always been a kind person. To prevent furthertrouble in the future, it would be better to explain things to Norwalk Corporation."
"Okay, Ned! Come back soon," Ingrid replied in a sweet voice. "I'll be done with shooting by nextweek. Can you come and meet the wedding dress designer with me?"
