Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 538

Chapter 538 

But what Agnes didn’t expect was that even before she set foot into the venue, there were already a bunch of people coming up to her to say hi. 

“Ms. Pritchard, congrats!” 

“Ms. Pritchard, love your new hairdo.” 

“Ms. Pritchard, happy birthday.” 

Agnes frowned. 

It was clear. They had mistaken her for someone else. 

They thought she was Beatrice. 

But that left Agnes feeling puzzled. 

Even though she and Beatrice were half–sisters, they looked nothing alike. 

The fact that they had mistaken her for Beatrice was quite a shocker. 

Feeling confused, Agnes walked into the banquet hall. 

There were a few security guards standing at the entrance. 

Their job was to check invitations and confirm the identities of guests. 

When they saw Agnes, they seemed a bit perplexed. 

“Ms. Beatrice, weren’t you just inside?” 

Looks like even these guards had gotten her mixed up. 

The confusion in Agnes‘ mind deepened. 

But at least she didn’t have to show her invitation. 

Agnes simply replied, “I stepped out to change my outfit.” 

The guards found this very strange. 

There was only one entrance to the banquet hall, and they knew all about the comings and goings of the guests. 

Ms. Pritchard had just walked in less than ten minutes ago, and now she was back at the door with a new outfit, makeover, and even a new hairstyle. It was mind–boggling. 

But there was no mistaking that face, even though there was something off about it. 

Now, the face seemed more pleasing to the eye. 

But today was Ms. Pritchard’s birthday, so they didn’t dare to slack off. 

They immediately opened the doors to the banquet hall. 

And just like that, Agnes walked in. 

Her entrance caused quite a stir. 

This was something Agnes had expected, but not because people knew about her past, but because of her face. 

Today’s birthday girl was Beatrice. 

Beatrice had just arrived in stunning attire ten minutes ago. 

Her glamorous outfit attracted praises and gazes from everyone. 

At this moment, many socialites were complimenting and flattering her. 

In this circle, Beatrice’s name was well–known. 

Everyone referred to her as Ms. Beatrice. 

She wasn’t originally from the Capital. 

The Pritchard family was said to be a prestigious family in Willowbrook Town. 

She was originally the daughter of Preston Pritchard, the chairman of Starlight International Group. After Preston’s unexpected death, his wife married Berlin Thomas. 

Beatrice became Berlin’s stepdaughter, and everyone started calling her Ms. Beatrice. 

Ms. Beatrice’s reputation was complicated. It was said that she was ruthless in the past, even hiring killers. Her reputation was not good. 

But then she had a car accident and forgot about her past.
