Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 943

Valeria's words were brief, but they revealed so much.

Turns out Ryder had returned to the Tim Corporation and even won a takeover battle.

Work matters weren't Agnes' forte, nor did she want to meddle.

Agnes turned and went inside, deciding to ignore the rest.

Jared, meanwhile, wore a detached expression and said coolly, "I'm aware."

Then to Valeria, he added, "Go back, and don't come looking for me here anymore."

Valeria was taken aback by Jared's reaction to the news.

How could he remain so calm? Even she, an outsider, was finding it hard to watch.

Ryder was clearly overstepping, acting out of turn, but Jared seemed indifferent.

He had vanished without a word for half a month.

Meanwhile, the company had been through a whirlwind of events.

The board was losing faith in Jared.

Now, with Ryder's impressive acquisition, they might just agree to appoint a new chairman.

If so, the empire Jared had painstakingly built would undergo a regime change, snatched away by Ryder.

Valeria questioned, "Don't you plan on coming back with me?"

Jared replied, "I don't want to go back just yet."

Valeria frowned, but her voice remained steady, "Fine, then tell me, when do you plan on going back?"
