Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 633

Agnes felt totally defeated facing Ryder.

She had repeated her words countless times.

Indeed, Ryder did share a similarity with Jared.

They both had an almost masochistic stubbornness.

And these geniuses seemed to always believe in their ability to change the status quo.

Agnes didn't want to talk anymore.

Agnes began, "I'll head back to Manhattan as soon as possible."

After she finished, she turned and walked away.

Agnes went to Jared's bedroom.

The door was open.

Jared was inside.

Nocturne was sitting on the sofa chatting with Jared.

"They told me you're my dad." Nocturne said.

Jared replied calmly, "Yes, I'm your biological father."

"My mom told me I don't have a dad."

"That's because your mom didn't tell you the truth. Every child has a father and a mother."

"I know that, but I thought you guys are divorced."

Jared stayed silent for a moment, then replied, "We are divorced."

A frown appeared on Nocturne's face, "Why did you divorce? Don't you love my mom?"

A hint of pain flashed in Jared's eyes, "You're still young. You wouldn't understand that in this world, loving someone doesn't mean you can be with them. There are many things that your mom and I can't control."

Agnes didn't expect Jared to speak from a child's perspective.

In front of the child, he didn't blame their separation on her.

Even though he hated her so much.

Agnes' heart was filled with bitterness.

Nocturne seemed a little clueless, "Maybe I don't understand adult feelings. Will you guys be together in the future?"

Jared gently touched Nocturne's hair, "We will, I promise. You'll have a complete family."

Nocturne thought for a moment and then said okay.

The room fell into silence again.
