Chapter 332: Chapter 334

Chapter 334 Agnes was feeling super awkward.

Ryder showed up and she hadn’t noticed him at all.

Getting up, Agnes resettled herself on the swing. “What brings you here?”

“Just took Oscar out for a walk and we just got back. Oscar likes to play in the backyard after a walk. By the way, you’re sitting on Oscar’s swing now,” Ryder said. Agnes quickly got up, and Ryder’s smirk became even more pronounced.

Only then did Agnes realize that Ryder was just joking.

Golden retrievers don’t swing, so Agnes shot Ryder a glare.

Ryder came over, sat down on the stone bench under the locust tree, and while grooming Oscar, he asked, “Why are you sitting here all mopey? Where’s Jared?” “He’s chatting with your mom. I just came out for some fresh air.”

Then came a long stretch of silence In the past, when Agnes and Ryder were together, she would always yak on and on while Ryder just listened, occasionally asking a question or two.

They had gotten close from rehearsing and performing in plays together.

But ever since she found out Ryder had feelings for her, Agnes felt like she couldn’t chat as freely as before.

Agnes didn’t speak and Ryder was silent, which made her feel even more embarrassed. Just as Agnes was about to leave, Ryder suddenly said, “Tm moving out soon.”

Curiosity piqued, Agnes asked, “Are you moving out of the Whitfield Manor? To where?”

“I’m interning at the Tranquil Care Hospital now, so I rented an apartment at the Lotus Residence nearby.”

Agnes nodded, “You’ve told me that your dream is to become an excellent neurosurgeon. Congratulations. You’re getting there.”

“It’s still early days. I still need clinical experience and practice. But I won’t give up.”

Agnes encouraged him, “Keep going, you’ll make it.”

“And you, you once told me you wanted to be a reporter”

Agnes’s eyes dimmed a bit.

Yes, her dream was to become a reporter, to expose the dark side of society, to help those on the edge of despair, to fight against the world’s injustices using the power of media That was her dream. But now, she was stuck in the whirlpool of the entertainment industry for money.

Even though she didn’t hate this industry, it still had nothing to do with her dream.

Agnes gave a wry smile, “If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll still pursue my career dream.”

“What dream?”

Jared’s voice came from not far away.

Walking over with a smile, Jared asked, “How come I’ve never heard about your career dream?”

Agnes replied, “Because I want to do it on my own. If I told you, you’d arrange everything for me in a heartbeat. Where’s the fun in that?”

Jared ruffled Agnes’s hair, “So what is your career dream?”

“You guess, I’m not telling you”

Ryder had already stood up. Sensibly, he said, “Jared, I’m heading back to my room now.”

With that, he left with Oscar Jared’s face turned cloudy. “Why can’t you share your dreams with me? Why only with Ryder?”

Agnes glanced at Jared, “Are you jealous?”

“You’re here appreciating the night scene, discussing life goals. Of course I’m jealous!

Jared was jealous like a kid His expression seemed to say, Tm not happy, so come comfort
