Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 959

Kerri had said something came up, and she didn't make it.

Now seeing Kerri, she looked as if she had lost a significant amount of weight.

Agnes, concerned, approached her, "Kerri, how have you been holding up lately?"

Kerri offered a weak smile, "I'm hanging in there, Agnes. I heard you went to Bronzetown Borough recently, glad to see you're safe and sound."

"What about Sprague Bradford?"

"Sprague's doing well," replied Kerri.

When Agnes mentioned Nocturne, she also shared Nocturne's status with Kerri.

Kerri sighed wistfully, "I just wish Nocturne would get better soon. Sprague's started school, and it would've been nice if Nocturne could've been his classmate."

Agnes also sighed; she, too, wished that Nocturne could attend school like any other child.

The two women found themselves a cozy café to chat for a while.

Speaking of recent events, Kerri learned that Agnes was now living in a hotel.

Quick to offer support, she asked, "What about your family's estate?"

Agnes exhaled deeply, "That place doesn't belong to me anymore."

"But living in a hotel must be inconvenient. How about this—you come stay at my place. Maplewood Manor has been empty for a while anyway."

Kerri owned a house in Maplewood Manor, just a few doors down from where she used to live.

But what if Jared decided to stay at Maplewood Manor as well?

While Agnes was still hesitating, Kerri had already slipped the keys into her hand, "Just think of it as house-sitting for me. You don't have to be polite with me, right?"

Agnes bit her lip, "Kerri, thanks for helping me."
