Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 1027

The next day.

Agnes made an early call to Reggie's butler, Saul. Saul had been with Reggie for many years, a steadfast figure in the household. To secure an audience with Reggie, one had to arrange it in advance, no exceptions.

On the phone, Agnes inquired, “Is Reggie available today? I’d like to pay him a visit.”

Saul replied, “Miss Septima, if you wish to see the master, he’s always got time for you. Today, he’s at Albert’s Restaurant on the east side of town.”

“Alright, I got it.”

After hanging up, Agnes, with a bounce in her step, excitedly latched onto Jared’s arm and said, “Let’s go have noodles tonight.”

Reggie had a peculiar hobby; he enjoyed spending his leisure time as a noodle chef. His restaurant wasn’t always open, operating on a whim rather than a schedule. Yet, Albert’s Restaurant was renowned nationwide, despite its erratic hours.

Agnes reminisced about her first encounter with Reggie during the filming of "The Magical Romance of Cinderella" in the Capital. Back then, she frequented the restaurant so much that her face became a familiar sight. Eventually, they struck up a conversation, and in a whimsical twist of fate, she started calling him godfather.

However, at that time, Beatrice Pritchard had hired some thugs aiming to set her up. Fortunately, Reggie had given her a lucky charm that saved her life. Thinking back, Reggie had indeed saved her on numerous occasions.

Jared remained silent.
