Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 556

Chapter 556 

Beatrice spoke angrily, “Agnes Pritchard, it’s been four years and you are still a lowly bitch. Jared only did what he did because of me, don’t even think about ruining our relationship, he’s mine, and you can forget about fighting me for him.” 

“If he’s truly yours, no one can snatch him away. If someone can, then he was never yours to begin with. And if I wanted to snatch him, I could do it anytime, believe it or not.” 

Beatrice was so furious she wanted to smack Agnes, “Agnes, you’re shameless.” 

But Agnes reacted quickly, grabbing Beatrice’s hand before slapping her across the face. 

Beatrice was fuming, acting like a mad woman, “Agnes, how dare you hit me!” 

She was about to slap Agnes, but Agnes said calmly, “Jared’s watching from inside. I don’t care, but if you retaliate, your image that you’ve worked so hard to build these past few years will be ruined.” 

As soon as Agnes mentioned Jared, Beatrice immediately stopped. 

She covered her face, pretending to look innocent. 

Agnes ignored her and walked into the banquet hall. 

Beatrice turned around too. 

Sure enough, Jared was not far from the banquet hall. 

He was looking towards the balcony. 

Beatrice walked over with a wronged expression, but she found Jared following Agnes‘ footsteps and leaving. 

After Agnes entered, Jared went over to her and blocked her way. 

Agnes stared at Jared, “Move, don’t block my way.” 

Jared sneered, “Haven’t seen you for a few years, you’ve become quite sharp tongued.” 

Agnes retorted, “Haven’t seen you for a few years, your taste has diminished quite a bit.” 

Jared was actually in a good mood after hearing this, “Oh, are you jealous?” 

“I’m not so bored as to be jealous of my ex–husband’s woman. It’s just that Mr. Whitfield, you ruined my plan and blocked my way, naturally I’m not pleased.” 

Jared raised an eyebrow, “Agnes, tell me, what is your real intention of coming here? The Sotheby’s auction has nothing to do with you? There’s no such coincidence in the world, right?” 

Agnes smiled, “Mr. Whitfield, you’re overestimating me. I’m just a normal person, how can I have such ability?” 

Jared seriously looked at the woman in front of him. 

She really had changed from four years ago. 

Apart from a more mature appearance, her character and words had also become sharper. 

Time seemed to have forged a hard shell on Agnes, she was no longer the timid and fearful person she used to be. 

He had also seen the slap she gave Beatrice on the balcony just now. 

This woman, she really has changed. 

Jared sneered, “Where are you staying tonight?”
