Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 558

Party's over.

Everyone had started to clear out.

Last to leave was Jared.

At the hotel entrance.

A valet had already driven up Jared's car.

Beatrice, clad in evening wear, was seeing off Jared in the chilly night.

With a face full of reluctance, Beatrice asked, "You're going back to Willowbrook Town, aren't you? Can't you stay here for a few more days? It's really late now."

Jared's gaze, however, landed on Agnes standing nearby.

He replied indifferently, "I'll be in the Capital for the next few days."

Excited, Beatrice said, "Really? That's great, then I'll come find you tomorrow."

He answered, "No need, I've got work to do, I'll come see you when I get a chance."

Beatrice was somewhat disappointed, but still thrilled inside.

In the past four years, Jared never seemed to have sought her out on his own initiative.

Lowering her head, Beatrice gently said, "Jared, I'm really happy today, thank you. I'll wait for you, no matter how long, I'll be waiting."

Listening to their sweet nothings, Agnes could hardly bear it.

For Agnes, it was all too ironic.

Four years ago, Jared had contemplated sending Beatrice to jail to protect Agnes.

But now...

Especially seeing Beatrice mimicking her every move in front of Jared with a face similar to hers.

Agnes watched, feeling very uncomfortable.

At this moment, Agnes' phone in her bag started to vibrate. She took it out to answer the call.

It was Nocturne calling.

Actually, Nocturne was also in the Capital now, living with Albert, but Agnes couldn't go see him.
