Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 254

Agnes Pritchard frowned, "I don't want to go back."

Ivan shrugged off his coat and draped it over Agnes' shoulders, "Whatever's going on, get in the car first. It's bloody cold out here."

It was mid-winter, and the chill was biting.

Agnes was only dressed in an evening gown. Her face was flushed from the cold, but she didn't feel it at all.

Once in the car, Ivan asked, "Where to?"

Where to?

Agnes felt lost. Where should she go?

Ivan said, "Forget it, let's grab a bite first."

Ivan took her to a small diner by the street.

It was tucked away in a nondescript neighborhood that most people would never find, but it had a cozy and quiet atmosphere.

The fried potato balls from this place were crispy and irresistible.

Agnes didn't have much of an appetite, but she still managed to eat half of a serving of steaming hot potato balls.

After eating, she felt somewhat rejuvenated.

"What the hell happened? Weren't you at the auction dinner tonight? The necklace you're wearing, isn't that Kingdom Heart? I thought it wasn't up for auction?"

Ivan knew her schedule like the back of his hand, since he was the one who arranged it all.

Agnes was at a loss.

There were things she didn't want to talk about.

After all, Ivan was Mamie's brother.

Whether Mamie had set her up or not, she didn't want to stir up trouble between them without proof.

Agnes said, "Don't ask, I don't want to talk about it for now."
