Chapter 318

Jared chuckled coldly, “I knew it from the start. The eyes never lie, and yours are filled with desire.”

Mariela laughed, “So you knew from the beginning that I had a crush on you. . Mr. Whitfield, you’re such an

experienced business leader that you’ve already honed your perceptiveness. However, Agnes is not like you, she is

just a child who has not grown up yet, and ambitious people like me can better help you. How about letting me be

your sword in the business world? I don’t care even if you exploit me.”

When Mariela saw her chance of seducing him going nowhere, she immediately changed tack. As long as she had

the chance to be around Jared, she believed that one day she would win his heart.

Jared scoffed, “You aren’t fit to be my tool.”

“Jared!” Mariela’s face began to darken.

She had never met a man like this in all these years, and Jared had lost his patience to argue with her.

Jared said sternly, “Mariela, your ambition has nothing to do with me. I’ll pretend today’s incident didn’t happen. But

don’t show up around me or Agnes ever again, and don’t let her know about today, or I assure you, no company

will hire you in the future.”

Jared’s words were cold, he wasn’t joking around.

Yet Manela couldn’t help but ask, “You don’t want to tell Agnes. Are you afraid she’ll misunderstand?”

“No, I just don’t want you, a piece of trash, to pollute her innocence”

Mariela was shaking with fury.

All the men treated her like a gem, buut why did Jared see her as trash?

Did he really hate her that much?

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Agnes’s voice came faintly from outside, “Jared, are you done bathing? Open the door, I’ve brought you clothes”

Jared gave Mariela a cold glance. Mariela knew what Jared meant.

If Agnes saw her standing in front of him in such revealing clothes, she would definitely misunderstand.

Jared wouldn’t allow that.

Mariela gritted her teeth and hid behind the thick curtains.

Jared opened the door, Agnes was standing there with clothes in her hand.

Seeing Jared still soaking wet, she asked in surprise, “Why haven’t you bathed yet?”

“Tll go back and do it.”

“Why, doesn’t grandma’s house have a bathroom?”

“This place is too dirty.” Jared’s voice was full of disgust, then he took Agnes and left.

After Agnes and Jared left, Mariela came out from behind the curtains.

Her fingers were buried deep into her palm.

“Jared, you may be high and mighty, but the humiliation I suffered today. I will make you pay someday!”

Agnes found it very strange.

Helena served Jared coffee, but Jared didn’t accept it.

Agnes was a bit upset, “Jared, that’s really rude, you know?”

Jared turned around, “From now on, don’t go to Mariela’s house to shower anymore, understand?”

“Why?”

“We’ll be going back in a few days, I’ll have someone build a bathroom for your grandma”

Hearing Jared’s words, Agnes suddenly felt touched.

She had been thinking about it for a long time, but the water and electricity facilities at grandma’s house were very

rudimentary. If they were to be renovated, all the circuits would need to be redone.

Agnes didn’t trust the local craftsmen, and as grandma was old, she was worried about the safety of the wiring

But she had full faith in Jared’s capability.

Agnes immediately beamed, “You go change into clean clothes first. I’ll heat up some water for you, then you can

bathe and change.”
