No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 355

My body wobbled a bit, and it was Jacqueline who steadied me.

Looking at Haley, her face pale and emotions running high, my heart skipped a beat. Had my words accidentally hit the mark?

Truth be told, my accusations were just conjectures, a shot in the dark. But now, Aiden's death seemed not so straightforward after all.

If Haley was indeed involved, or had orchestrated it, then this woman was terrifyingly cunning.

No wonder Aiden's parents were so harsh, berating her. There must have been a reason.

"Haley, you're looking guilty," I didn't let her off the hook.

I had her cornered, and it was time to reveal her true colors.

Haley shook her head, denying the accusations.

I pressed on, "You plotted against Aiden because he became a stumbling block to your aspirations for wealth and status. Only with him gone could you chase after what you truly desired."

"But you also knew chasing Conrad as a divorcee wouldn't be a piece of cake. So, you set up a situation for Aiden to walk in on, betting that Conrad would be filled with guilt and take care of you no matter what after Aiden's accident."

"No, that's not it," Haley screamed again.

"Haley, whether it is or isn't, you don't get to decide. There will be evidence," I could tell she wasn't used to doing dirty work.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be on the verge of a breakdown from a few pointed questions. Yet, she had caused someone's death.

"I didn't want Aiden to die, I didn't..." Haley's pill bottle clattered to the floor as she clasped her head, tormented.

She hadn't intended for Aiden to die, but he had.

So, she was admitting Aiden's accident wasn't as accidental as it seemed.

Her demeanor gave me a bad feeling. "Haley, what are you planning?" I asked.

Haley's response was icy, "Felicia, you think you're so clever? Guess what I'll do next."

I clenched my fists, sensing trouble. Haley then turned to Jacqueline, adding, "I want to see Conrad within three days, or else brace yourselves for the drama."

With those words, she stood up and left.

"I'll be waiting. I'm eager to see what stunt you'll pull next," Jacqueline was stubborn as a mule; there was no reasoning with her once she was provoked.

Haley was desperate, a dangerous gleam in her eye as she walked out.

"Take your stuff and go," Jacqueline said, picking up Haley's dropped pill bottle, ready to chase after her.

I stopped her, knowing how dangerous those pills could be. It wasn't safe for anyone to handle them.
