Chapter 116
Justin saw Agnes suddenly stop and tum to ask, “What’s up?”
With her mask on, Justin couldn’t read Agnes‘ facial expressions, but her eyes were filled with surprise and confusion.
Cunous, Justin followed Agnes gaze and was also stunned.
The man next to Mamie was Jared?
Over the years, Mamie had attended countless events with a plethora of male companions, from rich heirs and government officials to celebrities
Justin wouldn’t have found this strange in the past, but there were rumors that Mamie was on vacation with her boyfriend.
This meant that her companion for the day might be someone special. But wasn’t Jared already married to Agnes?
At that moment, Mamie noticed Justin and walked over with her companion
Agnes quietly watched as the man came closer, feeling as if her world was slowly crumbling.
Seeing his face, Agnes thought of Jared bustling in the kitchen for her just the night before.
Life was indeed full of irony.
In just 24 hours, they met again in such a manner.
“So you were in such a hurry to borrow clothes from me earlier for this lady. Justin, aren’t you going to introduce us?”
Agnes was surprised. So, Mamie and Justin knew each other.
Right, they were both big shots in the same circle. It wasn’t strange that they knew each other.
Justin quickly snapped back to reality. With his worldly wisdom, he flashed a charming smile, “With Mamie here, I’m not the focus anymore. But maybe Mamie could introduce the gentleman next to her?”
Mamie chuckled and introduced the man on her arm with confidence, “This is Jared, the president of the Tim Group. I believe you should know him”
Who wouldn’t know Jared?
Justin smiled at Jared and said, “Mr. Whitfield, it’s such a coincidence. We meet again. It’s only been three days since we last met at the hospital.”
The last time, Jared was fooling around with Agnes in the hospital room, and Justin walked in on them.
Justin deliberately mentioned this, but Jared didn’t seem embarrassed at all.
His gaze fell on Agnes, who was standing next to Justin.
Justin deliberately said to Mamie, “Mamie, you should ask Mr. Whitfield why he was at the hospital.”
Mamie caught the hint in Justin’s words and asked, “Jared, did you meet Justin at the hospital?”
Instead of answering, Jared said to Justin, “Justin seems to be too interested in other people’s business.
With a smile on his face, Justin openly replied, “I’m not that interested in Mr. Whitfield, but I am quite interested in the people around Mr. Whitfield.”
Jared’s expression shifted slightly. This Justin was too arrogant!
Agnes was glad she chose a mask that almost completely covered her face. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to deal with this situation.
Jared and Mamie were here on vacation, while she was here with Justin to relax.
But luckily she came. At least she saw the answers she wanted.
