Chapter 220 Agnes was completely taken aback because the man standing in front of her was Brayden Simonds!
So... so...
Kerri was the adopted daughter of the Simonds family, the one everyone in town knew about but no one had ever actually seen?
Agnes could hardly believe it.
Kemi had already walked up to Agnes, looking a little surprised she asked. âYou guys know each other?â
Agnes nodded. âI went to his birthday party once with Jared.â
Kem frowned, âLetâs go upstairs, donât mind him â
Halfway up, they were stopped by Brayden who looked like heâd just had a bath, weaning a grey bathrobe.
His hair was wet and his face was somewhat stern.
He said to Kerr, âWhat on earth is going on?â
Kerri replied, âBrayden, Agnes is my friend, she will be staying here temporarily, itâs none of your business. Also, you better not snitch or Iâll toss your stuff outâ Brayden frowned, âDonât be so stubborn, youâre making things difficult for me.â
Brayden turned to Agnes âAgnes, is it okay for you to spend the night outside like this? Does Jared know youâre here?â
Agnes looked a bit scared, âAm I disturbing you guys? Maybe I should just go Agnes could tell.
Although Kerri and Brayden seemed to bicker all the time, they were husband and wife living under the same roof.
What their relationship was exactly, was hard to say.
Her being here, would inevitably cause disturbances.
But Kem grabbed Agnesâs hand, âWhere would you go if you leave now? Donât mind him, itâs my house, you can stay as long as you want.â
With that she dragged Agnes upstairs.
Brayden frowned and went back to his own room.
Kem prepared a guest room, fully equipped.
She brought over some new clothes, âYouâre about my size, you can wear my clothes for nowâ
Agnes still felt a bit awkward, âIâm still causing you trouble.â
âWhat trouble? You have no idea how happy I am to have you here. I canât stand Brayden, living under the same roof with him is driving me crazyâ
Agnes laughed, âDo you really dislike him that much?â
Kerri quickly said, âAbsolutely, weâre like oil and water, we canât be together for more than three minutes without fightingâ
Agnes laughed, âBut when he tried to kiss you just now, you didnât dodgeâ
âWell... I was caught off guard. Normally, I wouldâve fought with him.â
âOkay, okay, no more excuses. Actually, Brayden is a nice guy. Heâs Jaredâs friend. Iâve heard Jared mention him before. He may seem a bit wild on the outside, but heâs not a player At his last birthday party, even though there were lots of beautiful women, none of them were by his sideâ
Kerri said, âYou donât need to defend him. Anyway, thereâs no future for us, weâll be getting a divorce soonâ
Agnes didnât know much about their situation, so she couldnât offer any advice.
Was there a secret behind their peaceful mamage?
Agnes sighed deeply, âAnyway, thank you for letting me stay hereâ
âJust relax and make yourself at home. But I canât guarantee that Brayden wonât tell Jared â
When Herri mentioned Jared, Agnesâ eyes darkened
