Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 681

Jared went straight to the owner of Eden Nights, Phenix.

Not bothering to beat around the bush, Jared asked outright, "Where's Agnes?"

Phenix chuckled, "Mr. Whitfield, you reserved a private room yesterday but refused the company of our girls here, and now you're chasing me down. If you were looking for any of our girls, I could call them over right now. But you're looking for an outsider, how am I supposed to help you?"

Jared retorted, "Cut the crap, the woman from Pegasus Plaza yesterday, where is she?"

Phenix feigned, "So you're looking for my sister Septima. She had some business to attend to and left early this morning. She's a valued guest at Eden Nights, staying temporarily. This morning I saw her leaving Pegasus Plaza in a hurry. You were there last night, you didn't happen to...?"

Jared's face reddened.

Phenix's words were blunt, but Jared knew she was merely playing dumb.

However, a weight lifted from Jared's heart. He had lost his head in anger yesterday.

No matter what, it was impossible for Agnes to seek livelihood in such a place.

Jared knew that Agnes had been living in Manhattan these past years.

Maybe he was just subconsciously using his anger to find a target that resembled her.

Jared asked coldly, "Where is she now?"

"I don't know, I'm not her mother. She's a grown woman, she goes wherever she pleases."

Phenix replied nonchalantly.

Jared realized he wouldn't get anything out of her, but he still didn't understand Phenix's so-called Septima.

Earlier, Bro Kear and Naylor had already surprised Jared. Now there was also Phenix.

The people Agnes had been in contact with these years were truly unpredictable.

After leaving Eden Nights, Agnes went to the Prestige Medical Center to see Kerri Bradford.
