Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 744

Many people were green with envy over Julia, for she had a boyfriend like him. But many also felt that Michael, Julia's boyfriend, was not reliable. A guy with tattoos, with a bad boy aura.

Some people even started a bet: whoever could snatch Michael away from Julia would be considered the campus queen.

So, those who were jealous started causing trouble, trying to sow discord. Some of the more devious even tried to seduce Michael.

But almost every one of them ended up regretfully taught a lesson by Michael and retreated with their tails between their legs.

At first, Alyssa didn't think highly of Michael either. After all, it always seemed like there was a devil living in this man's eyes.

He was full of eccentric ideas, could always see through people's wicked intentions, and had a variety of bully tactics to fight evil with evil.

These were all things Alyssa had not been exposed to much growing up.

But, Alyssa remembered one time, it was Christmas Eve.

Michael had traveled a long way to give Julia a box of apples, and Julia generously shared with everyone in the dormitory.

The two of them went for a walk on the sports field.

At that time, Alyssa had just returned from a party, and she saw two people walking hand in hand.

At that time, there was a thin layer of snow on the ground, leaving footprints when stepped on.

The sports field had already been circled with a long string of their footprints.

It was cold outside. At that time, Alyssa was sitting in her car.

She saw Michael rubbing Julia's hands vigorously, then breathing on them, finally kissing them and tucking them into his own jacket pocket. Moonlight spilled on the two of them.

She saw the ultimate tenderness on his face.

Even the moon in the sky at that moment seemed to lose its color in comparison.

This man, who was usually fierce and terrifying, was so gentle when it came to Julia.
