Chapter 559 Agnes put her phone into her bag, muttering dismissively, âWell, heâs still better than you Jaredâs selfâcenteredness hadnât changed a bit over the past four years.
He was all over Beatrice at the hotel entrance, but now heâs asking about Agnes love life.
Agnes didnât want to get tangled up with him too much.
Because Agnes knew, Jared was filled with resentment towards her.
To avoid trouble, it was best to steer clear of him.
Agnes sidestepped Jared, ready to leave.
She barely took a step when Jared grabbed her arm, âSo tell me, what makes him better than me?â
Agnes was momentarily taken aback. She didnât even fully grasp what Jared had said.
It took her a while to process.
Turns out it was because she casually mentioned that her boyfriend was better than Jared. Jaredâs face was dead serious.
He was still the same, nitpicking, the arrogant personality hadnât changed at all.
Was it because her casual comment hurt his pride, so he had to get to the bottom of it?
The party ended, the openâair car park was bustling.
Agnes didnât want a big argument with him.
She replied, âHeâs younger, more thoughtful, and of course...
Agnes deliberately glanced at Jaredâs private area, âHe has his advantages in certain areas.â
Agnes was pokerâfaced, a hint of mockery in her tone.
But she noticed Jaredâs ears turning red, not sure if she had pissed him off.
Jaredâs face turned grim, staring at Agnesâ eyes as if he wanted to kill her with his glare.
After a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and said, âYouâre shameless!â
Agnes chuckled, âMr. Whitfield, thanks for the compliment.â
Jared stormed off in a huff.
Agnesâ face turned solemn.
Ever since she came back, her plans had been disrupted because of Jared.
The first time they met, Jared seemed like he wanted to choke her to death.
And every time after that, Agnes could feel the hatred and anger from the bottom of his heart.
Agnes was confused about Jaredâs feelings towards her.
Maybe he hadnât let go after four years, maybe he felt wronged that she disappeared suddenly, maybe he was in pain because he lost a child.
Such complex emotions tangled together, causing their every encounter to be like carrying a dagger to stab each other.
Agnes acted as if nothing happened, but she was hurting inside.
Over the years, she never held any grudges against Jared, nor did she project her resentment towards Alyssa Whitfield onto Jared.
She chose to leave because of the child, and because she couldnât be with Jared anymore due to their past.
They couldnât live together, couldnât grow old together.
Even though they broke up, Agnesâ heart still couldnât let go of this man, nor could she stop loving him.
Over the years, every time she saw Nocturneâs face, Agnes saw Jared in him.
She never forgot Jared.
However, when she came back and saw the pain in Jaredâs eyes, and his current coldâhearted demeanor, Agnes always felt like she owed him something. But the current situation was completely different from the past.
