Chapter 578: Chapter 580

Chapter 580 Agnes had thought that Ryder would come up with some excuse to dodge this issue.

But to her surprise, his storytelling skills were no less than Jared’s.

Kevin said, “Since you guys are engaged already, you must’ve been living together in Manhattan, right? Looks like my dad’s dream of having a grandchild might come true soon.”

‘Jared, your hand!” Before Kevin could finish his sentence, Valeria cried out.

Everyone turned their eyes to Jared, Turns out, the glass Jared was drinking from was crushed by his grip.

1 The glass pierced his palm, and blood was slowly flowing out.

Everyone was shocked.

Valeria grabbed his hand immediately, removing the glass shards, “Are you okay?”

Jared was indifferent, as if the glass stuck in his palm wasn’t hurting him at all.

Valeria said, “Let’s go to the room and dress your wound.”

Soon Valeria and Jared left, leaving everyone in a stunned silence.

Agnes felt a sudden pang of sadness, the image of Jared’s bleeding hand was stuck in her mind.

Why did he do that?

Kevin and Raleign also kept silent, but everyone could sense it.

Even though Jared just said he had no ties with Ms. Agnes anymore, the news of her and Ryder living together after getting engaged drove Jared to crush the glass unawares.

What kind of rage was he holding back?

Luckily, dinner was almost over.

Cilian sighed, standing up, “Ryder, come to the study, I need to talk to you.”

Ryder looked icy cold, his face turned even darker when Jared crushed the glass.

Ryder said, “I’ll take Agnes back to her room first, I’ll be there shortly.”

Agnes went back to her room first, feeling like a huge rock was pressing down on her heart, filled with complicated emotions.

Jared must’ve been extremely angry just now. But Agnes didn’t understand, since he had restarted his life with Valeria, why was he still hung up on Agnes‘ love life?

Maybe it was because Jared still hated her.

Agnes felt a headache coming.

She didn’t want to think or delve into it, she just wanted to sleep.

Ryder said, “Don’t worry, I checked his wound earlier, it’s not too deep, it should be fine after disinfection.”

Ryder was the only one who could guess what she was really thinking.

Agnes felt guilty even denying it, and finally just said casually, “I’m going back to Manhattan tomorrow.”

This trip home was a total mistake.

She was planning to lay low and avoid Jared, but she didn’t expect so many things to happen in just a few days.

She didn’t find the remittance slip she was looking for, she wasn’t sure if it was with Laura or Alyssa.

A lot of things were still a mess.

But now, she didn’t want to investigate anymore, she just wanted to leave this place, to get away from Jared.

It seemed like she was running away again.

Ryder said, “I’ll go back with you.”

Agnes looked at him, “But you just got back.”

“I came back just to see you.”

Agnes frowned and avoided his gaze, “Do as you please then.”

Ryder left the room, but didn’t go to Cilian.

He went to Valeria’s room.

Valeria’s door was open.

In the room, Valeria had just finished treating Jared’s hand and was packing up the first aid box.
