Chapter 710

There seemed to be a dagger piercing Jared’s heart.

At the end of the day, she simply did not love him anymore.

Agnes, though, was quite honest about it.

Even her expression was candid.

Then again, Jared had no idea what events had unfolded in Agnes‘ life over the past four years.

The men that appeared in her life were either mysterious or exceptional.

Take Mr. Kearney, for instance; his appearance, demeanor, and background were all impressive.

Jared felt that he was no match for such a man.

If there was a winner and loser in love, he was likely the latter.

Despite this, he couldn’t accept his fate.

Why was he the only one clinging to hope?

Agnes slowly withdrew her hand from Jared’s, “I’m giving you time to think, whether you want to be friends or

strangers. You don’t have to answer now, but once you do, I will respect your decision.”

With that, Agnes turned and walked into the house.

There was no heated argument this time.

But why did her heart still ache so?

Jared remained at the doorstep.

Agnes had given him two options.

Both of which, to him, were a dead end.

Should he really give up?

Was there no hope left?

He had once set aside his pride and everything else to hold onto this woman.

Yet, she chose to leave.

Fear crept into Jared’s heart.

He felt helpless.

If he were to forcefully hold her back as he did in the past, it would only repel her further.

As Jared stood there in silence, he noticed a ruby bracelet in his hand.

It must have slipped from Agnes‘ wrist when he held her hand too tightly.

He recognized the bracelet.

It was the royal jewelry “Desert Rose” that was previously auctioned off.

The jewelry symbolized a love that would be protected until death.

A wealthy anonymous bidder had purchased it for ninety million dollars.

It had made quite a stir back then.

But Jared didn’t expect it to appear on Agnes‘ wrist just months later.

The person who bought this set of jewelry must be Mr. Kearney.

And he had given such a valuable piece to Agnes.

Unless it was out of love, it made no sense.

The mere thought of it felt like a stab to Jared’s heart.

He clenched his fists, then put the ruby bracelet in his coat pocket.

After Agnes entered the house, she suddenly noticed something was amiss.

She raised her hand and realized the ruby bracelet was missing.

Oh no!

A shock ran through Agnes.

Although she never asked Kearney about the origin and value of the jewelry, she could guess that it must be worth

a fortune.

What’s more, it was a wedding gift from Kearney to Phenix, she was merely borrowing it for the day.

If she indeed lost such an expensive gift, she had no idea how to make up for it.

Agnes turned around and stepped out the glass door again..

Jared’s silhouette was still there, seemingly lost in thought.

Agnes had no time to think about that now.

She began to search around.

16:12

She remembered the bracelet was still on her wrist when she stepped out.

How could she lose it in the blink of an eye?

It must have fallen off when she was with Jared.

Agnes searched around but found nothing.

Jared just watched her with his eyes narrowed.

Agnes had no choice but to ask Jared, “I lost a ruby bracelet, did you see it?”
