Justin stated, "I get it; she met you first. But Mr. Whitfield, you better treat Agnes right. In this era of frequent divorces, I won't hesitate to swoop in and take her if you mess up."

Jared answered nonchalantly, "You won't get the chance. We're pretty harmonious and might have a kid soon."

Agnes blushed.

What was Jared talking about?

He pulled her in for a hug, then turned to Justin, grinning, "Right, honey?"

His smile was infectious, but it sent chills down Agnes' spine. She could only nod vaguely.

Jared affectionately ruffled Agnes' hair.

Watching them, Justin couldn't stomach it any longer and left the lounge.

Jared turned to Agnes, "I'm uncomfortable with you working with a guy who's into you."

Agnes chuckled, "Well, Justin is quite handsome and has a lot of fans."

When she glanced at Jared, his face had turned stern.

She quickly added, "But you're richer. I remember an old saying, 'Good-looking folks are a dime a dozen, but the rich ones are the real catch.'"

His assistant even handed out gift cards, which were very generous.
