Chapter 239

Alyssa’s fading figure gradually disappeared from Laura’s sight, and she cracked a smile, realizing that

everything she had dug up was indeed true. After leaving the chapel hall, Agnes finally exhaled a sigh

of relief. Today, she had decided to wear high heels, but unfortunately, she accidentally twisted her

ankle. Luckily, there was a bench on the rooftop where she could sit

Agnes took off her shoes and started rubbing her foot when she heard a cold voice from the side.

Turning her head, she saw Ryder standing there, holding an ointment. Confused, she asked, “What are

you doing here?”

“I followed you up here, Ryder replied calmly. This ointment can help with your pain. He handed it over

to her.

Curious, Agnes took the ointment and questioned, “Why do you have this?”

Ryder sat down beside her and explained, “I saw you twist your ankle and asked an attendant for it”

“Thanks,” Agnes replied, feeling a bit unsure of how to react. She squeezed out the ointment and

applied it to her ankle. The atmosphere between them fell into

silence

Seeing Ryder again brought a mix of emotions for Agnes. The deserted rooftop was now just occupied

by the two of them, and she couldn’t help but consider what Jared might think if he saw them together.

Agnes finished applying the ointment and said, “I should probably head back.”

Ryder was silent for a moment, then asked, “Are you avoiding me?”

Agnes answered awkwardly, “Of course not, I just feel a bit cold”

“You don’t have to pretend. I know you’ve been avoiding me. At school, you act like you don’t see me.

Is it because of Jared?

“He’s just too suspicious.”

Thinking about this, Agnes couldn’t help but feel angry.

But immediately, she realized her words might have given Ryder the wrong idea.

Agnes quickly clanfied, I didn’t mean that, he’s not suspicious of us. I mean, he’s just a suspicious

person, it’s not about you.. Agnes suddenly felt she was making a mess of things, the more she

explained, the worse it seemed to get.

But Ryder didn’t react, and she wasn’t sure if he understood.

Agnes suddenly fell silent.

She took a deep breath, determined to clarify the situation, especially since Jared had also asked her

to figure it out on her own.

Agnes said, “Maybe it’s because we’ve been rehearsing together and spending so much time together

that he’s become a bit jealous.”

Feeling awkward, Agnes continued, “You might find it absurd. We’ve been arguing about this, but now I

believe we haven’t done anything wrong, and time will prove

It’

‘Agnes, have you seen Robin Hood?” Ryder suddenly interjected in a calm tone.

Agnes hesitated slightly. “Yes, I have. What about it?”

Ryder’s voice sounded somewhat distant and chilly

”

“In Robin Hood, there’s a scene that left a deep impression on me. Maid Marian tells Robin Hood. We

were once betrothed, but now I am mamied to my husband Now that I’ve met you again, people will

surely think I still love you. If I were to ask for your help again, they’d all call me shameless and

unfaithful Robin Hood hurriedly replies, “We only need to be true to our own conscience and not care

about what others say Maid Marian asks, ‘But what if I feel guilty in my own conscience?”

After Ryder finished speaking, there was a moment of silence all around

It felt as if Agnes’s heart had plunged into an abyss.

Then, she heard Ryder’s indifferent voice again from beside her, “Agnes, but what if I feel guilty in my

own conscience?”
