Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 749

Making the decision wasn't a spur-of-the-moment thing for Agnes. She had been mulling over the matter for days. She and Jared were planning on starting over, and doing so demanded that they be in the same city. Jared had too many responsibilities here, and asking him to give up everything was out of the question.

Agnes had been hustling in Manhattan for four years and had finally achieved some small successes in her career. But in this foreign land, she never truly felt at home. Giving up was hard, but the people she loved were all here.

As for Nocturne's illness, it had significantly improved ever since he started the new medication. The current treatment plan was to continue with this medication until something more effective was developed. Considering the length of this process and the fact that her grandma’s health condition required her constant presence, Agnes decided to give up everything in Manhattan.

Rather than saying she was giving up, Agnes preferred to see it as making a different choice. The following day, she boarded a plane to Manhattan. She had initially planned to take only a two-week leave, but she ended up staying in her hometown much longer.

Agnes' boss, a nice gentleman named Steve, had been a great help throughout her career. He was a respected figure in the journalism industry and a mentor to Agnes. When Agnes resigned, Steve was the first to object. However, Agnes was firm about her decision. All Steve could do was bless her.

Agnes hugged him, "If you ever come to visit my city, I'll make sure to treat you well." She bid farewell to her colleagues, and before she knew it, she had finished all her resignation procedures.

Upon returning to her apartment that night, she found Nate still holed up in her room, seemingly tangled up with a hacker. She spent most of her time glued to her computer screen, oblivious to the world around her.
