Chapter 237

Jared was clearly defending Agnes

Laura retorted, “Well duh, it’s Agnes’ birthday. We’re throwing her a party so she can have a good

time.”

Some of the old timers from the Whitfield family were there too.

Agnes went around giving them a nod and a smile.

Then she saw Ryder again.

He was standing behind Alyssa, all quiet and observant, like some kind of invisible stalker.

Agnes’ heart did a weird flip-flop in her chest

Jared’s words echoed in her mind, “Ryder likes you”

Agnes shook her head involuntarily.

No way!

Absolutely no way!

That’s just Jared being paranoid!

Agnes exchanged a few words with Ryder

Then they both dispersed.

This birthday shindig wasn’t a run-of-the-mill party, it was more like a fancy dinner.

There were all sorts of buffets lined up in the banquet hall.

Champagne towers were all the rage.

Most folks were holding a glass of champagne, having a grand old time.

There was a huge dance floor in the banquet hall.

Quite a few big shots from Starlight International Group were there too.

Agnes wasn’t really into these kinds of things, but it was her birthday bash, so she had to put up with it.

Preston and Laura were hobnobbing with some business bigwigs.

Beatrice was originally chatting with a group of socialites.

Seeing Jared, she made a beeline for him…

She sweetly called out, “Jared.”

Both Jared and Agnes turned to look at Beatrice.

Agnes frowned

The dress Beatrice was weaning… it was hers.

Beatrice saw Jared scrutinizing her, and she blushed.

Laura had told her to emulate Agnes’ style since Jared seemned to like it.

This dress was one she had found in Agnes” wardrobe. It was a beige dress with tiny flower prints She

thought it was a bit out of date, but maybe Jared liked this style

Beatrice said to Jared in front of Agnes, “You’re making me blush, staring at me like that.

Jared said, “That dress you’re wearing…

Beatrice’s heart fluttered

It’s working! Jared really likes this style!

She had always dressed to the nines whenever she saw Jared, but he had never looked at her this way

Beatrice was over the moon.

Just when Beatrice was expecting a compliment, Jared suddenly said, “it’s really ugly”

Beatrice was taken aback.

Without waiting for Beatrice’s reaction, he grabbed Agnes’ hand and walked away

Beatrice was so pissed she wanted to tear her dress off right there and then.

She knew jul Agnes had terrible tastel How could Jared possibly like it? Perhaps Agnes intentionally

left this ugly dress in her wardrobe to embarrass her. Beatrice clenched her fistal

you were wearing it, it would look great. But on someone else, it looks temble”

Agnes sighed, “I really don’t know what Beatrice sees in you. She’s always trying to win you over

“Does she really like me? She’s just interested in my fame”

“And how do you know I’m not interested in your fame?”

‘Because.. last night, you cried and told me you love me”

Agnes’ face tumed red at the memory of last night. She was out of it then, were her words even

“What? You don’t remember? Do we need to revisit it tonight?”

“Jared, stop teasing mer
