Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424 

Jared had nothing to do with this, and he shouldn’t be dragged into it. 

However, Agnes knew that she would become enemies with Alyssa in the future, and the relationship with the Whitfield family would deteriorate. Rather than having their marriage suffer, it’s better to end things amicably now. 

However, Agnes couldn’t let go as easily as she thought she could. 

These past few days, she felt like she was living in a dream. 

The pain deep within her was a harsh reminder that she was still alive. 

Agnes was mindlessly holding her phone. 

Suddenly, her phone started vibrating again. 

Agnes checked, it was Laura, 

Agnes frowned and answered the call. 

“Agnes, your dad’s had an accident, he crashed into a guard rail on the highway. He’s at Hope Hospital, get over here now!” 

Agnes froze for a second! 

Then, she quickly got up and went to Hope Hospital. 

At the emergency room entrance were Laura and Beatrice. 

The moment Beatrice saw Agnes, she started blaming her, “Agnes, you bring bad luck. If you hadn’t stressed dad out, he wouldn’t have been drunk driving. If anything happens to dad, it’s all on you.” 

Agnes ignored Beatrice. 

She walked/straight up to Laura, “What happened? How did dad get into an accident?” 

Laura, crying, said, “I don’t know, he went out for a meeting today. I have no idea how much he drank. He drove back himself at noon and had a car accident on the highway.” 

Upon finishing, Laura started sobbing, “Preston, how could you be so heartless? If something happens to you, we’ll be left alone. And what about Starlight International Group’s huge debt?” 

“Don’t cry. Dad’s not dead,” Agnes said coldly. 

But Agnes felt her heart trembling.

She looked at the closed door of the rescue room and the red light indicating that the rescue was in progress. 

She felt like she was being strangled, she couldn’t breathe. 

Years ago, her mother was rushed into the rescue room and never woke up again. 

It felt like history was repeating itself. 

The smell of disinfectant enveloped her. 

She felt like her blood was getting colder. 

Agnes stood at the door, while Beatrice continued to blame her. 

But Agnes didn’t hear a word Beatrice was saying. 

All her attention was on that door. 

Agnes closed her eyes, clasped her hands and prayed for a not so cruel outcome. 

Even though she couldn’t forgive Preston, he was still her father.
