Chapter 68 Unspoken

Raymond fell silent He had never noticed how deeply Agnes cared. Perhaps before, she had always buried everything inside.
No matter how far he strayed, she never complained, never left him, and always stayed by his side taking care of him.
But this time, she truly cared. So much time had passed, and she still refused to return.
Raymond realized that he needed to settle things with Hillary. He knocked on the door again.
He said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t treat you well before. I’ll make things clear with Hillary. This time, trust me.”
They spoke through the door. Only a door separated them, yet it felt like a vast distance stood between them.
While he was speaking, his driver hurried over.
He said, “Mr. Newton, the hospital called. The doctor said Ms. Young’s condition got a bit worse and asked you to go check on her.”
Raymond frowned slightly. “Got it.”
He turned back toward Agnes and said, “I’m leaving. Get some rest.”
Agnes had heard the driver too. That wave of disgust rose in her chest again. And he still dared to ask for her trust.
The moment Hillary called, he still rushed over like he was tied to her.
Outside, Rebecca, who had just finished watching a movie with a male classmate, saw a luxury car drive away from the entrance of the courtyard.
Through the window, she caught a glimpse of the man sitting in the back seat. His side profile was striking.
A sharp nose bridge and refined features. Rebecca was completely stunned. Who was that man?
When she returned to the courtyard and saw Agnes, she immediately began chattering about it.
“Agnes! I just saw a CEO straight out of a novel at the gate! He was so, so, so ridiculously handsome!!”
Rebecca clasped her hands together and instantly started acting it out.
“I’m already imagining him pinning me to the wall, lifting my chin, and saying in that domineering voice ‘Girl, there is nothing in this world I cannot have, including you… Oh my god, hahaha, this is so embarrassing. I’m done for, completely done for!”
Agnes let out a helpless sigh. This girl was falling for someone again.
She knew Rebecca was talking about Raymond. She did not want to comment, so she gave a vague response and shifted the topic back to Rebecca.

Agnes said, “Rebecca, the guy you watched the movie with today, was that Ethan you’ve been talking
about?”
Rebecca instantly went from excited to shy. “Mm…”
Agnes leaned closer with a teasing look. Qh? Someone is blushing. Come on, tell me. How far have you two gone?”
Rebecca’s face turned bright red. “Oh, come on… no, nothing happened. We just watched a movie together…”
Agnes narrowed her eyes and glanced at her. “Oh really? Then what was the movie about?”
Rebecca pressed her lips together, trying not to smile, but gave in the next second. “Okay, okay, I’ll tell you everything. Agnes. Nothing gets past you, hahaha. I didn’t really watch much of it. I… he… I… uh… well…”
Agnes perked up with curiosity. “Hm? What? Say it, say it!”
As she urged her, she reached out and tickled Rebecca, making her laugh uncontrollably.
“Ahhh, I give up! Hahaha, ahhh, stop, stop it, hahaha! He… he kissed me!”
Agnes stopped and gasped. “Wow! Rebecca, are you in a relationship now??”
“I… I think so…” Rebecca said, blushing deeply, her head lowered and voice soft.
Agnes said, “What do you mean, you think so?”
Rebecca said, “Well… we kissed, so that means we’re together now, right?”
Agnes said, “Did he confess to you?”
Rebecca said, “No. We watched a movie and went shopping too. On the way, he held my hand the whole time. Agnes, we never said it out loud, but things are already like this, so that basically means we’re together, right?”
Agnes tapped her forehead lightly. “You. Be smart, alright? Don’t lose yourself in love. If he ever dares treat you badly, tell me. I’ll go deal with him.”
