Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 789

Peacock?

Jared's sarcasm could be downright lethal at times.

Agnes retorted, "What can he possibly say to me, Jared? We're just friends, nothing more. Now stop being such a sourpuss."

Agnes tried to soothe him, but Jared's face was still clouded over with jealousy.

Jared proposed, "How about we head home together after the award ceremony?"

Agnes declined, "I can't, because I have an interview scheduled after."

"I can wait for you."

Agnes looked into Jared's eyes, deep and intense, but his expression was one of resigned acceptance.

"Alright then, I'll call you when I'm done," Agnes finally agreed.

Agnes knew that after the award ceremony, there would be a grand banquet. Jared had no plans to attend, but her interview would be over in less than half an hour. By that time, the banquet would still be in full swing. The media would likely still be camped out front of the banquet hall, not paying any attention to the early departures.

Seeing Agnes agree, Jared smiled in satisfaction.

Agnes leaned in and kissed Jared on the cheek. "Ready to head out now, Mr. Jealousy? The awards ceremony is about to start."

Jared raised an eyebrow at her before finally releasing her.
