Agnes was whisked away from the party hall by Justin, unsure of where she was being led to, she just followed his pace.
Her mind went blank, unable to process any thoughts.
Finally, Justin suddenly stopped and said to Agnes, "If you want to cry, just let it out."
Coming back to her senses, Agnes realized that Justin had brought her to a beach.
This was the famous Verve Beach of Dragon Bay, the moonlight tonight was stunningly beautiful.
Under the glow of the moonlight, the beach seemed to be emitting a layer of green fluorescence. The cold feel of the tide washing over Agnes' feet brought her back to reality.
Agnes didn't cry, but instead wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing it with her own eyes was good, at least she didn't have to be trapped in that conflicting emotion anymore.
These days, Agnes felt like she was about to be driven crazy by the contradictions in her heart.
Agnes sat on a large rock without a word, just staring blankly at the boundless water.
Suddenly, Justin broke the silence, "Agnes, divorce Jared. I want to marry you."
Agnes replied, "Justin, I'm not in the mood for your jokes right now."
Justin also sat down next to Agnes.
Justin said, "The first time I proposed to you, you thought I was joking. Now you think the same. Do I seem that casual to you?"
Agnes replied, "Because I can't think of a reason why you'd propose to me. Justin, do you like me?"
