Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 599

Valeria gaped at the little boy, "This kid is...?"

Jared glanced at the boy, "His name's Summer. He's resting at my place for a bit."

He didn't go into details about the boy.

Instead, he asked, "What brings you here?"

Valeria handed over a file, "This is all about the engagement party. I've got charts and schedules. Take a look, do you need any changed?"

Jared skimmed through the file.

It was chock-full of details, including guests, venue, prep work, and so on. It was clear as a bell, even had diagrams and comparisons.

Jared shut the file, "This is some detailed planning."

Valeria grinned, "Just part of the job. Of course, I'm open to suggestions."

Jared said, "You can arrange the engagement party as you wish. If you need advice, my sister's there."

Valeria chuckled, "Sure."

Meanwhile, Nocturne quietly went back to his room.

Watching the boy's retreating figure, Valeria said, "He's such a cute kid. We're short a ring bearer for the engagement party. What do you think about having him?"

Jared glanced at the door and said, "Might not work out. He's not a normal kid. Plus, he's not from here, so he won't be sticking around long."

Valeria casually asked, "Ever meet his parents?"

Jared shook his head, "Not yet. But I'd love to."

Valeria chuckled, "I always thought you weren't a kid-like person. Surprised to see you fussing over a stranger's kid."

Jared grinned, "Well, the little guy is pretty endearing."

Valeria said, "I've reported in. Gonna head back now."
