Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 409

Chapter 409 

Jared was losing his cool

He didn’t want to hear a peep from Agnes

Especially not that dreaded Dword 

So, Jared had to shut her up

Agnes fought back like a wildcat

She even bit his tongue

With a mouthful of coppery taste, Agnes couldn’t tell whether it was her blood or Jared’s

But the difference in strength between men and women was significant

Despite her years of Taekwondo practice, her strength was like a kitten’s against Jared’s

Just when Agnes was about to go down, a powerful force ripped them apart

Jared was yanked back

While a figure took a stand in front of Agnes

The boy was icy cool, How could you do this to Agnes?” 

It was Ryder

He was wedged right between Agnes and Jared

There was a trace of blood at the corner of Agnesmouth

His eyes were bloodshot, like a raging lion

Jared looked at the composed lad in front of him and spoke dismissively, Agnes? You think you’re worthy to call her that?” 

The room fell eerily silent

Agnes stood behind Ryder, panting heavily

The tussle with Jared had worn her out

This man, usually as gentle as a spring breeze

Turned into a beast when angry, unstoppable

The door to the room was left ajar

The housemaids were peeking in from the doorway, but Ryder wouldn’t let them in

I won’t let anyone hurt her.” 

Jared scoffed, Ryder, what makes you think you can protect her? Don’t forget, she’s my wife. You have no business meddling in our affairs.” 

Jared had always treated Ryder like a friend and mentor, caring for him deeply

He had never spoken to him in such a hostile tone

Clearly, his rage had found a new target

Earlier, he saw Agnes and Ryder chatting and swinging in the yard

He stood on the second floor and watched them for a long time

Although he couldn’t hear what they were talking about, he could tell they were enjoying each other’s company

What’s more, Ryder had even hugged Agnes in the end

Jared kept telling himself that Agnes must have kept her boundaries with Ryder

That hug didn’t mean anything

He shouldn’t make a mountain out of a molehill

So he didn’t go down, he chose to trust Agnes

But what Jared didn’t expect was

Not long after that, Agnes came up and asked for a divorce straight away

Her resolute attitude scared him

Could this have nothing to do with Ryder

Jared didn’t buy it 

Ryder stood his ground, Agnes is your wife, but she’s also my friend I can’t just stand by and watch you hurting her” 

Jared strode forward, gripping Ryder’s collar, his voice icecold with a threat, Ryder, you’ve always been my beloved nephew. Don’t make me get rough with you” 

Ryder’s eyes also showed a maturity beyond his years, You’ve always been the person I respect the most. But if you want a fight, I’m ready. You taught me how to stand up for myself, wouldn’t you like to see if I could surpass you?
