Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 238

For the celebrity party, Agnes found it quite dull, even though she was the center of attention today. There weren't many people present, and none of them were her friends. On the contrary, Beatrice had invited all of her friends, and the socialites from the Capital seemed more interested in making friends with her.

Beatrice had changed into another outfit, and now she looked like a radiant butterfly gracefully dancing among the flowers. She was dancing with Chester, the star from Starlight International Group.

Many stars from Starlight International Group attended the party this time, but Agnes noticed that Justin hadn't come. On the other hand, Ivan was present and currently engaged in conversation with Jared.

Century Entertainment and Starlight International Group had been competitors in the past, but their relationship seemed relatively good since their joint investment in "The Magical Romance of Cinderella." However, Agnes believed that it was only superficial. In the business world, there are no permanent friends or enemies, only eternal interests.

Feeling bored, Agnes ate some food and then went to the rooftop terrace.

At that moment, Alyssa was chatting with several top models, and Laura approached her with a wine glass, saying, "Alyssa, your outfit today must be the latest Chanel collection, perfect for your style."

Alyssa raised her glass and smiled, "Thank you. We are family now." They began conversing with each other.

Seeing them talking, the other models tactfully moved away.

Laura said, "Although Agnes doesn't have a mother, with a caring sister like you, her father and I can rest assured."

Alyssa chuckled, "Agnes is a good kid, pure-hearted and kind. I really like her."

Laura sighed, "Actually, her father and I feel indebted to her. Despite treating her like my own daughter, she has always been distant from me. She feels like I invaded her family, and until now, she has never called me 'mom.' Over the years, she has become somewhat isolated, and her father and I have been worried about her mental well-being. But now, with Jared's love and your affection, I don't have to feel so guilty anymore."

As Laura spoke casually, Alyssa was taken aback, "Agnes is not your biological daughter?"

Alyssa is always busy, mostly in foreign countries, so she doesn't know much about the domestic situation.
