Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 143

Jared started off, “What, did I cheappoint you? Agnes, I’ve told you that ver consider divorce suggest you better cut lies with Justin, or I might have In do something”

Justin again!

Agnes couldn’t help but reton, “Jared can you stop using Justin as an excuse? It’s clear as day that you cheated first. You and Mamie are getting ready to tie the knot, why make our relationship public? Ist th at just asking for trouble?

Jared glanced at Agoes “Who said I’m marrying Mamin?” NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Upon hearing this Agnes felt a pang of burt.

He was still denying it

Did he take her for a fool?

How long was he planning to keep this up?

Agnes shot back, I saw it with my own eyes The day Mamie was hospitalized, you went to see her I we nt too I heard her say at the door that you were marrying me just to get back at her for rejecting your pr oposal. And at Dragon Bay you said you were on a business trip, but actually you were on holiday with her She proposed to you publicly, I saw that too You two even kissed Since you two are already together, why treat me like a fool, Jared? I might be young, but I have my dignity”

Agnes felt wronged, but she held back her tears

What she minded was being deceived repeatedly in love and treated like a laughing stock.

They clearly had other women, and yet they still put on a show of being good men in front of her

Elton was like this, even Jared was no different!

Jared paused for two seconds, then suddenly said, “Since you were there that day, didn’t you see me r eject Marnie’s proposal?

Agnes was taken aback.

That day after she saw Mamie stand up, tip–toe and kiss Jared

She was pulled away from the scene by Justin.

But what did Jared say?

He rejected Mamie’s proposal?

Jared seemed to have guessed that she might have only seen the first half and then left halfway through.

The follow up reports were also out of context, although the news no longer reports it now

But there were still many tumors about the proposals.

Jared earnestly explained. “I rejected the proposal on the spot that day. And yes, I went to Dragon Bay on a business trip that day: the Tim Group plans to launch a new project there i bumped into Mamie coi ncidentally, and I had no idea she would propose. As for what you heard at the hospital, it’s my fault for not telling you, I did propose to Mamie, but that’s in the past now Agnes, If we’re to bring up the past, s hould we talk about your ten–year relationship with Elton?”

When Jared put it this way, Agnes felt a bit guilty for some reason.

Agnes didn’t know how to react for a while.

If it was true, then what has she been worrying and hurting about these days?

Could this just be a misunderstanding?

Jared had already stood up and was walking towards Agnes.

His face was still cold, he said. “Actually, it was you who went to Dragon Bay behind my back with Justi n, then you two went on a ten– day vacation in Europe and told me some nonsense about old friends reuniting Agnes, tell me, did you betray me?”

Agnes was stunned

She quickly shook her head and said. “No, nothing happened between me and Justin.”

Jared closed in, “Oh? But I heard he proposed to you a year ago?”

She replied. “I didn’t agree.”

Jared asked, “So it’s true?”

She explained, “He’s an orphan my mom has been sponsoring since he was little, he probably just wan ted to show his gratitude, I didn’t agree.”

Jared asked further, “Anything Else you didn’t agree to?”

She hesitated for a moment, His confession”

Jared had pushed Agnes to the point of no return, with the conference table behind her

Jared placed has hands on either side of the table, effectively trapping Agnes.

The two were to close that they could hear each other’s breath.
