Chapter 151
Originally, Beatrice just wanted to test the waters and see if Jared knew about Agnes and Elton’s relationship. She didn’t expect Jared to be so protective of Agnes, afraid of her being misunderstood by the Whitfield family
Agnes knew that Beatrice wouldn’t back down easily, she was good at causing a scene in public. But luckily, Jared knew her well, and Beatrice’s attempts only made her
look foolish
During dinner, Jared was very gentle to Agnes, even cutting her steak for her.
The Whitfield family had never seen this side of Jared Tim was pleased, his son was not young anymore, and he had not had any woman by his side for many years. There were rumors that he was not interested in women and was gay. This worried him a lot, and he had even arranged a blind date for him. Now he finally understood. Seeing him so caring and gentle, he felt he would soon have a grandson.
Deep down, Beatrice was filled with jealousy Laura had warned her to behave herself today, not to confront Agnes head–on, not to steal the spotlight. But she couldn’t control herself
When Beatrice saw Jared cut a piece of steak for Agnes, she suddenly put on a smiley face and said, “I love steak too, could you cut a piece for me”
The plate of Porto steak was indeed quite far from Beatrice. But her request was a bit strange. However, she put on an innocent and carefree look, which didn’t raise any
Suspicions
But Agnes knew Beatrice was doing it on purpose. She wanted to get closer to Jared in front of her and act harmless. Agnes simply handed her the steak in her bowl and said, “You can have this piece.” Beatrice coquettishly said, “That’s the one Jared picked for you; I can’t take it, Jared. Could you pick another piece for me? I really love
steak.”
She acted as if she was just greedy for steak in order to cover up her honest thoughts. She wanted to test Jared’s reaction. Even if his woman was her sister, he could accept another one, all men were the same, unable to resist a woman who took the initiative. She was young and beautiful and believed she could attract men more than Agnes Beatrice looked at Jared with a greedy face.
Tim laughed, saying. “Beatrice is so innocent and lively, Jared, just pick a piece for her.”
But Jared simply said, “Shelly, is there any more Porto steak?”
Shelly was their nanny. Shelly replied, “There’s plenty.”
Jared said, “Since Beatrice likes it so much, bring all the steak to her, even the pan, put it next to Beatrice, and let her eat to her heart’s content.”
Ten seconds later.
Beatrice looked at the pan full of Porto steak next to her, her face turned ghastly!
Jared actually treated her like this!
