Chapter 241
Agnes made a beeline for the lounge.
The lounge door was wide open, with only Jared and Alyssa inside.
Without hesitation, Agnes walked in and called, “Alyssa.”
Alyssa looked up. As her gaze fell on Agnes’s face, Alyssa felt a momentary blur in her vision.
There was something about Agnes’s appearance that had struck her as odd the first time they met.
Yet, she couldn’t fathom why she hadn’t given it more thought back then. Agnes resembled Julia so
much that it had been impossible for Alyssa to ignore.
Concerned about Alyssa’s injury, Agnes approached her and asked. “You okay, girl? I heard you got
hurt. Where did you get banged up?” Observing Alyssa’s hand wrapped in gauze, Agnes reached out
to check on it, but to her surprise, Alyssa pulled her hand away and responded distantly. “I’m fine.”
Feeling a bit awkward, Agnes straightened up and withdrew her hand, glancing briefly at Jared, who
seemed to wear a slight frown. Just then, Ryder walked into the
scene.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Ryder seemed to make Agnes nervous.
She didn’t even dare to meet Ryder’s eyes, just kept her head down, pretending she hadn’t seen him.
Clearly, Alyssa had called Ryder over
After Ryder entered, Alyssa stood up and told Jared, Tm beat today, headed back.”
Jared nodded, “Rest up, I’ll drop by tomorrow”
Alyssa forced a smile, then left with Ryder.
The lounge suddenly fell silent.
Finally, Agnes spoke up, “What’s up with Alyssa? She seems down.”
Jared pondered, Tm not sure either.”
Then he turned to her, “What about you?”
Agnes was taken aback, “What?”
“You seemed a bit awkward when you saw Ryder, didn’t you??
“I wasn’t feeling awkward.”
“Agnes, stop playing games with me”
Agnes was silent for a while, lowered her head and whispered, Tm sorry.”
After Agnes finished, Jared didn’t respond.
After a while, Agnes looked up, puzzled.
She met Jared’s bright eyes.
Jared spoke up in a seemingly casual tone, “So, Ryder came clean with you?”
Agnes knew that a sharp guy like Jared would be able to figure everything out.
Just like how he had figured out Ryder’s special feelings for her, while she had been completely
clueless.
Agnes told him everything that had happened on the balcony.
After she finished, she sneaked a peek at Jared
Jared’s expression didn’t change, he wasn’t angry, just seemed to have expected everything.
“I know I misunderstood you before, I just thought you were narrow-minded and easily jealous, I didn’t
expect…
“With your slow brain, you wouldn’t have figured it out. After all, Ryder is a tough nut to crack.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf it hadn’t been for that kiss on the balcony, Jared might not have discovered Ryder’s secret feelings.
Ryder’s hiding skills were top notch. He had pretended to despise Agnes so much.
Looking back, he was just covering his affection for her
Agnes, like a guilty child, tip-toed to Jared, gently shook his hand, “Don’t be mad, it’s my fault for
misunderstanding you. I’ll listen to you in the future, and I won’t doubt you anymore”
Jared was satisfied with Agnes’s apology
“Really? You’ll do whatever I say?”
Agnes nodded earnestly, “Absolutely”
“Then let’s have a baby”
“No, I can’t do that, Jared, I haven’t graduated yet.”
“You and our daughter can take graduation photos together”
“Why a daughter? What if it’s a son?”
“If it’s a son, we’ll have another one, a daughter.” Jared was getting closer to Agnes, It’s a big task, so
we need to get a move on, darling, maybe we could start night
now
Agnes finally realized she was being teased by Jared pretending to be angry. “lared think wou nis i to
