Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 303

Chapter 303 

Jared followed the granny into the nearby cabin. 

Agnes wanted to go too, but the old lady stopped her. 

The granny said, “The kitchen is too smoky, you can’t come in. Go rest in the room.” 

How could Agnes relax leaving Jared there alone? 

Yet Jared shot Agnes a glance, hinting her to listen to the granny and not come over 

Agnes had to stay alone in the room, fidgeting. Her granny had always been kind and hospitable, never objected to her getting married and often suggested she bring her boyfriend home for a visit 

So why did she seem to have a problem with Jared? 

Jared had been polite and composed, hadn’t said anything wrong. 

Anxious and uneasy, Agnes couldn’t help but sneak a peek into the kitchen. 

The kitchen door was closed, so Agnes resorted to peeking through the window. 

Her Grandma was boiling water. Jared was standing on the side, chopping veggies. 

He’d never done this before, had no clue where to start. 

The old lady came over, guided him step by step, then remarked, “How on earth did Agnes fall for someone as stupid as you!” 

God! 

The first and probably the only one to ever call Jared stupid would be her granny. 

Watching Jared silently engrossed in chopping vegetables, Agnes oddly found him a little awkward. 

But Jared was still like before, exuding an air of elegant aloofness 

He had taken off his coat, wearing only a thin light grey sweater, looking like a student 

Agnes hadn’t expected to see Jared so out of his depth. She watched him nervously chop away, unable to peel her eyes off him. 

Agnes watched from the doorway for a while. It was only when Jared started getting the hang of it that she finally went back to her room. 

Half an hour later, the granny prepared a feast, calling her to eat.
