Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 706

Agnes shot a subconscious glance at Jared who was standing beside her.

His face was stone-cold, seemingly dropping the surrounding temperature.

Agnes quickly averted her gaze.

Count and Countess Alexandra greeted Agnes. They complimented her in English, "We've always heard Mr. Kearney mentioned Ms. Pritchard. Meeting you today, you truly are stunningly beautiful, a real gem indeed."

People around praised Countess Alexandra's eloquent English.

Agnes returned their greetings with ease.

Countess Alexandra was apparently close with Valeria, and she introduced Kearney to her.

Valeria was unfamiliar with Kearney. She had heard about eight major wineries competing for wine distribution rights.

The other seven wineries were essentially industry-leading behemoths with a long history.

But there was one she hadn't heard of.

It seemed to be a new riser, and she couldn't find much information on it.

But it was particularly favored by Count Alexandra and had been her strong competitor.

Valeria always felt that this competitor was operating in the shadows, while she was in the light, unable to fully understand their methods.

Although the wine distribution rights had been set for her, she had expended a lot of effort behind the scenes. She was quite curious about the mysterious Mr. Kearney and couldn't wait to meet him.

Meeting him today was somewhat different from what she had imagined. Those who could compete for Count Alexandra's wine distribution rights were usually industry leaders, mostly elder statesmen. Among the nine agents, only she, Valeria, and this Mr. Kearney were young.
