Agnes laughed radiantly, “Mr. Whitfield, did you work hard trying to dig up dirt on Bro Kear?”

Jared frowned. “Bro Kear?”

She even called him by such an intimate way.

“He’s not my boyfriend, so you don’t need to investigate him. But I bet you can’t find anything, so don’t waste your

energy.”

Upon hearing this, Jared felt like a weight had been lifted off his chest.

Last time at the hotel, Agnes said she had a boyfriend, which had been a thorn in his side, keeping him up at night.

Now that Agnes confirmed it herself, Jared felt like that thorn was finally removed.

He also realized that Agnes might have been just trying to provoke him.

He didn’t believe that the past he couldn’t forget for so many years, could be easily let go by Agnes.

Jared’s face eased up a bit.

Agnes continued, “My boyfriend is still in Manhattan. just came back to handle some things and won’t be staying

long, so he didn’t come back with me.” Jared’s relaxed face tightened up again in an instant.

His lips pressed tight.

But Agnes seemed nonchalant, “We’re getting married soon. I’d love to invite you, but it seems you’re getting

married too, so you might not have the time.”

Jared’s face turned even darker.

She was getting married?

Strangely enough, seeing Jared’s face, Agnes felt much better.

She didn’t want to delve into why she made up these lies, but she felt relieved.

Throughout the years, the only thing she learned was to love herself more.

If someone helps you, you should repay them doubly.

If someone hurts you, you should fight back.

We’re all living in this world for the first time, so why strive for perfection?

Jared ruined her day today, so she just wanted to upset him.

In the middle of their standoff, Laura walked over, “Agnes, come home with me tonight, Mr. Whitfield, you can rest

assured.

Laura must have overheard their conversation.

But if they keep this standoff up, it might draw media attention and cause trouble.

Agnes turned to Laura, smiled, as if to explain, “Ms. Laura, you won’t be mad at me for tonight’s incident, right? I

didn’t mean to hurt Beatrice, I just couldn’t stand by and watch a fake painting being auctioned off, it would be

fraud if it got exposed later. I had no choice but to say it on the spot, Beatrice may not understand me, but I believe

you will.”

In her heart, Laura cursed Agnes, but on her face, she smiled, “I know, you’re Beatrice’s sister, you used to care

deeply for her. It’s all because she was deceived and didn’t know it. I need to thank you for this. Didn’t you say you

don’t have a place to stay these days? Come home with me, after all we were family once, I have a duty to look

after you for your dad.”

Agnes has become so cunning now, Beatrice almost lost her reputation because of her, yet her words still claimed

to be for Beatrice’s good.

Laura still doesn’t know why Agnes disappeared for four years and suddenly showed up, what’s her motive.

Keeping Agnes with her, watching her every move, would make Laura feel at ease.

However, that’s exactly what Agnes wanted.

Agnes spoke, “Thank you for taking me in, Ms. Laura.”
