Chapter 760

The world certainly works in mysterious ways.

Jared and Agnes had divorced four years ago. For those four years, Agnes had disappeared off the face of the

earth. Who could have predicted a reunion under these circumstances?

Jared must loathe his ex–wife, right? After all, she had exposed the Whitfield family to a scandal that nearly pushed

Alyssa Whitfield to suicide.

In his fury, Jared had thrown Agnes out, and she had vanished since.

Four years had passed. Would Jared even recognize his ex–wife?

Yolanda couldn’t help but smirk as she watched Agnes.

That woman didn’t dare to steal a glance in their direction. She must not have expected to find herself in such a

situation. She had likely been dealt with severely in the past, and now, she didn’t even dare to lift her head.

The more fearful and guilty Agnes seemed, the more Yolanda wanted to drag her into the spotlight. Suddenly,

Yolanda turned to Agnes and said, “Agnes, Mr. Whitfield is here, aren’t you going to greet him?” Yolanda did this

intentionally.

Agnes knew that she couldn’t avoid the situation anymore. So, she reluctantly stood up and walked over.

With a smile on her face, Yolanda said, “Mr. Whitfield, Agnes is a highly talented individual we hired with a high

salary. She studied abroad and previously

worked at CNN with great success

At this point, with so many eyes on her, Agnes had no choice but to greet him confidently, “Mr. Whitfield, it’s an

honor to finally meet you.”

Jared’s gaze fixed on Agnes. To the average observer, he appeared emotionless, but Agnes could see a hint of

mockery in his eyes.

Jared said, “I’m always pleased to meet talented individuals like Ms. Pritchard, In fact, I’ve booked a private room at

Cloud View. I’d like to invite everyone

from the News Department to dinner tonight.”

The crowd erupted in cheers and praises for Mr. Whitfield’s generosity. Cloud View was the most upscale restaurant

in town.

Agnes was inwardly groaning, wondering what Jared was planning. Why was he inviting everyone to dinner?

There were quite a few people in the News Department, but most of them had already clocked out for the day. Only

about ten people who were planning to work overtime were left.

Everyone was thrilled about their good fortune.

Soon, everyone made their way to Cloud View in their own cars.

Jared had booked the most exclusive Sky Dome” room at Cloud View

Upon entering, they found that the floor was made of glass, giving the illusion of walking on clouds.

The room was surrounded by floor–to–ceiling windows, and at the highest point of Cloud View, it automatically

rotated, giving a full view of the city s skyline

The department head remarked, “The Sky Dome is rarely open to the public, usually reserved for foreign

dignitaries. I’ve never been here before Thanks to Mr Whitfield, we get to experience this beautiful view”

Everyone took their seats, and the department head sat next to Jared,

But no one dared to sit on the other side of Jared.

Jared exuded an aura of aloofness. Even Yolanda, who had initially wanted to sit next to him, was given a cold,

dismissive glance by Jared.

Recognizing the hint, Yolanda took a seat next to the department head.

Everyone else followed suit. With Yolanda as a precedent, everyone wisely avoided the seat next to Jared. Finally,

when everyone else had seats, only Agnes was left standing

And there was only one seat left, the one next to Jared…
