This put Agnes in a really awkward spot.

"Trust me, Jared, I'll get to the bottom of this. If it's as you said, I'll figure out a way to give you back," Agnes pledged.

Even though Jared insisted that Beatrice was the one who borrowed the money, Agnes knew Beatrice had no intention of repaying it. She couldn't stand Beatrice's attitude.

"We don't have to be all polite with each other, do we? It's just half a million," Jared brushed off.

"It's not the same."

"There's no difference. Let's drop it for now. If it bothers you that much, we can go home and ask tonight."

Agnes knew Jared might get mad if she insisted on refusing the money.

Jared agreed.

Agnes rarely went to the Whitfield Manor these days. Partly because she was really busy, and because she tried to avoid Ryder Whitfield.

There were some issues that only time could resolve.
