Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 31

After changing clothes, the two hopped out of the car.

This was the first time Agnes had seen Jared in casual wear. He was always prim and proper as if he lived in a bubble.

But now, dressed in a casual hoodie with a cartoon pattern, it felt like he was a different person. Just a piece of clothing made him seem a lot more approachable like he wasn't always on a pedestal.

Seeing Agnes staring at him, Jared asked, "What, isn't it pretty?"

Agnes quickly replied, "It suits you well. It makes you look a lot younger."

"You're saying I looked old before?"

This guy always picking a fight!

"Do you still want to eat the burger?" retorted Agnes.

Before he could reply, Agnes was already off, nimble as a deer, making her way into the bustling food street.

The street was a riot of lights and sounds, the smell of barbecue wafting in the air, a mix of spices creating an intoxicating aroma.

Without missing a beat, Agnes found "Burger Barn" in a quiet nook of the food street.

After finding a seat, Jared asked her curiously, "Where's the menu?"

Agnes chuckled, "What menu? This ain't that type of place."

And with that, she hollered towards the entrance, "Hey boss, two of your signature beef burger meals. The big one."

"Alright!" the boss called back amidst the hustle and bustle.

The burgers arrived quickly, and Agnes, famished, took a big bite, letting out a satisfied sigh. "This is the best burger I've ever had. Every bite is full of juicy beef and veggies. It's so satisfying."
