Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 645

Jared knew that Valeria's engagement to him was all about proving her power to the Count and Countess Alexandra to secure the agency rights to their wine.

And she got what she wanted. This took away a bit of the guilt that Jared was feeling.

Valeria continued, "But there's another issue that I need your help with."

"Speak up, as long as I can help, consider it done. It's the least I can do after breaking off our engagement."

"In two weeks, it's the Count and Countess Alexandra's daughter's coming-of-age party. They're holding a banquet at their estate and we've been invited. The wine agency rights are not yet fully secured, they're leaning towards me, but there were a lot of competitors. So, if you're free, I'd like you to come with me. After all, they think we're engaged and they're quite impressed with your resources."

Jared immediately agreed, "Rest assured, unless a comet hits the earth, I'll definitely be there."

Valeria laughed, "I didn't know you had a sense of humor."

Jared and Valeria's rapport was easy and natural. They had been good business partners for years.

Valeria was undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with, with her sharp mind, daring personality, and her knack for business.

Aside from kinship, Jared had a great deal of respect and admiration for her.

After they finished their business discussion, Valeria didn't hurry to leave.

She walked over to the couch where a child was sitting, "He looks just like you."

Jared had heard this so many times that he was tired of it.

"He's my son," Jared said suddenly, proudly.

"I know he's your son. Look how happy you are," Valeria teased.
