Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 336

Chapter 336 

Even if something major was up at home, it was always Preston who would call. 

Agnes stared at the caller ID on her phone, her brows furrowing slightly, but in the end, she picked up. 

Laura’s gentle voice came through the phone. “Agnes, will you come home for dinner tonight? I’ve made your favorite dishes.” 

Hearing her voice, Agnes felt a pang of discomfort. 

Laura’s words from before were like thoms stuck in her heart. 

She said her mother had brought it on herself and deserved her fate. 

Even if her mother had done something wrong, Agnes didn’t think Laura had the right to say these things. 

Agnes’ voice was cold, “I have something on tonight. I won’t be home.” 

“Agnes, are you still upset with me?” Laura asked, “I want to apologize for what happened the other day. That’s all in the past. I shouldn’t have said those things. made you bear it all. Your mother was just impulsive back then and I shouldn’t have slandered her out of spite. Agnes, I’m a woman too. Your father’s heart still belongs to your mother, and I was just jealous. But can you forgive me this once? I’ve been part of this family for ten years. You might not consider me family, but I think of you as my own daughter. Let tonight’s dinner be my apology, okay?” 

Agnes felt a whirlwind of emotions. 

Even though she never considered Laura as family, Laura was her father’s wife and they had a child together 

She and Beatrice might not get along, but they shared the same blood. 

If Laura really had nothing to do with her mother’s death, Agnes didn’t see a need to hold a grudge. 

After some hesitation, Agnes agreed, “Alright, I’ll be home tonight.” 

“Don’t forget to bring Jared with you. I’ve made his favorite dishes too.” 

After she hung up. Agnes called Jared 

In no time, Jared came to pick her up and they both headed to the Pritchard family mansion. 

On the drive, Jared suddenly asked, “Oh, I forgot to ask, did your father sort out his company’s issues?” 

Agnes wasn’t too clear on the current situation of Starlight International Group, but she gave all the money she received to help her father. 

Preston didn’t mention specifics after that. 

Agnes replied, “It’s being sorted. Don’t worry too much. If anything really happens, I’ll let you know” 

Jared nodded, he had done some digging himself. 

Starlight International Group was in dire straits, with only one artist, Justin, holding the fort. The others had already jumped ship. 

The company was also facing severe financial issues 

He had already contacted Preston privately and sent a substantial amount of money in the name of the Tim Group.
