GoodNovelFreeChapter 313 In the following days, Angela kept trying to get past everyone who was trying to stop her and hurry back to work.
Unfortunately, her biggest obstacle was Fiona, as Dexter was currently fully focused on investigating all the suspicious leads regarding her recent incident.
Angela's period cramps had passed, and her complexion had gradually improved with daily rest and care. Fiona was worried Angela would get bored staying in the hospital, so she often took her out for short walks.
Many people had cto visit her during this time, but today, two unexpected guests arrived-Ursula and her daughter, Cecilia.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe last tAngela had seen them was at the family banquet at Bamford Manor. They'd had no contact since then.
Ursula and Fiona had always maintained a surface-level cordiality but never truly got along. After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, Ursula shifted her attention to Angela.
"How could something like this happen? I really wonder who could be so wicked as to harm someone like this." Ursula sighed. "Angela, do you think you might have offended someone in the past? Could that be why they are harming you like this?" Angela lazily leaned against the couch, cradling a cup of peppermint tea in her hands and taking slow sips.
"I don't know either. Dexter is already looking into it. I'm sure we'll have answers soon." Cecilia suddenly pointed at the bracelet on Angela's wrist while gasping in admiration. "Wow, Angela, your bracelet is rather beautiful! No wonder Trevor picked that one out for you." Angela was startled for a moment. "Grandpa was the one who gavethis bracelet." "Yes, Grandpa gave it to you, but that day, Trevor was the one who gave it to Grandpa. I overheard their conversation outside the door-Trevor said he went to great lengths to acquire it from an overseas auction and that it was very expensive.
"He wanted to give it to you as a gift to make it up to you for something. He thought you wouldn't accept it from him, so he asked Grandpa to give it to you instead," Cecilia said in a tender, airy voice with a hint of childlike innocence.
On the other hand, Angela felt unease rise in her heart. She stared fixedly at the bracelet on her wrist, already considering the worst-case scenario.
If it was from Trevor, everything would make sense.
He had tried to kill her the first tthey had met. Even though he had since kept an air of civility, she had never let her guard down around him, fearing he would act irrationally again.
Could all of this be connected to him? Angela suppressed the shock in her heart and smiled as she asked, "Are you sure, Cecilia?" Cecilia looked slightly surprised. She nibbled on a piece of peach, saying, "Of course I'm sure. I had something to discuss with Grandpa at the time, but when I heard them talking, I left." Ursula and Cecilia soon took their leave.
"Could it be that bracelet?" Fiona asked urgently. "Take it off right now. I'll have Dexter get it tested." Angela's expression turned cold. Setting aside whether the bracelet had any hidden dangers, just knowing it cfrom Trevor made her feel utterly disgusted.

But to everyone's surprise, the test results showed nothing unusuam about the bracelet.
"Could it be that it was coated or soaked in something that evaporates over time, making it undetectable?" Angela questioned.
Dexter nodded. "That's very possible.
Either way, stop wearing it. Here ve wear this instead." With that, he casually handed her a small teal velvet box from his bag.
