Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 491

Chapter 491 

Agnes once hopped on Albert’s private jet and disappeared without a trace. Her life here was all bankrolled by Albert. However, Agnes didn’t have much contact with Albert over the years. On one hand, it was because of his special status; on the other hand, Albert wanted her to live a normal life. So, in the past four years, they barely saw each other. 

However, the other kids that Albert adopted had a lot of contact with each other behind the scenes. Especially the second kid, Kearney, and the fifth kid, Nathalie. Kearney ran Albert’s businesses at home and abroad, and he spent half of the year In Manhattan. When Agnes first came here, he arranged a lot of things for her. Kearney was a gentleman, always wearing a warm smile. However, those who knew him realized that it was just a facade. In reality, he was ruthless and his polite and cool demeanor hid a cold heart. Be it in business or the underworld, he was brutal, decisive and chilling. He earned himself a nickname in the society, “Kearney Killer“. But he treated Agnes like his little sister. 

Nathalie just turned 19 this year. She never went to school, but she was a genius. She had an extraordinary ability to analyze numbers, rumored to have been coding since she was five, a top–notch computer geek. At 15, she hacked into a country’s aerial defense command system, checked out all the data on their nukes and those of surrounding countries, then quietly left. It was a huge embarrassment for that country’s military, and they kept mum about it. She committed crimes again and again, and this country put a bounty on her. She was the number one hacker who made the world’s top cybersecurity experts embarrassed and gnash their teeth in frustration. People didn’t even know she was just a 19–year–old girl. But nobody didn’t know her online alias, Nighthawk. 

Nathalie lived with Agnes, and there was a story behind that. But recently, Phenix came, and since Nathalie grew up with Phenix and they were closest, she decided to move in with Phenix. Aghes planned to go home first to pick up Nocturne Pritchard, then go to the Imperial Hotel. Nocturne was mostly resting during the day, so Agnes didn’t worry too much about leaving him home alone. 

However, just as Agnes was about to leave, she heard Amy shouting her name loudly. She turned around and saw that Amy could no longer stand up. Agnes went over and found that Amy’s water had broken, looks like she was about to give birth. Agnes had to rush her to the hospital immediately. Today was supposed to be a weekend, and nobody was in the office. She and Amy were here only because of breaking news. Agnes didn’t think twice, helped Amy up, and encouraged her to hang in there. Finally, they got in the car. 

Agnes was on her way to the hospital. 

Phenix called her, asking when she could arrive. 

Agnes could only briefly explain the situation. 

Phenix immediately said, “Don’t worry, I’ll have Sean pick up Noc, Nate has a key to this place, you can come straight here after you leave the hospital” 

Agnes took Amy to the hospital, but Amy was all alone, her husband was on his way, begging Agnes to stay with Amy until he arrived. 

Of course, Agnes didn’t feel comfortable leaving Amy alone in the hospital.
