Jared was heading towards Agnesâ car.
Watching Jared approaching, the only thought running through Agnesâ head was to run, she had to run.
Almost instinctively, Agnes stepped on the accelerator.
She had to get out of there.
But Jared on the other side was quickening his pace, running towards her. Almost the next second, his hands were on the hood of Agnesâ car.
She didnât manage to get away after all.
So close, it seemed like everything had turned full circle.
Jared lifted his head, coldly saying, âAgnes, get out!â
Actually, Agnes couldnât hear what Jared was saying at all.
The surroundings were filled with the sound of car horns.
But Agnes just knew that these were the words Jared was saying.
Ever since she left the Caesar International Hospital, Agnesâ heart had been racing, as if it could jump out of her chest at any moment.
But at this very moment, Agnes suddenly found her heart seemed to be gripped by someone, unable to beat.
Her blood seemed to have stopped flowing, and Agnesâ body was extremely rigid.
They were in a standoff.
Whether it was three minutes or three hours, Agnes couldnât feel the passage of time.
But in the end, Agnes still opened the car door and got out.
The cold wind blew on her face, instantly sobering her up.
Agnes walked up to Jared, âMr. Whitfield, shouldnât you be at your engagement party? Is your fiancée going to be okay with you running out like this?â
Jared was staring at Agnes.
At this moment, she could still be so calm and collected, pretending as if nothing had happened?
âWhoâs Summerâs father?â Jared asked coldly.
Agnes felt like she was a string, stretched to the point of breaking.
Agnes also spoke coldly, âNo matter whose child it is, it doesnât seem to have anything to do with you.â
âAgnes, heâs my son, right? Four years ago, you didnât abort the baby. Summer is my child, right?â
Jared was eager to get confirmation from Agnes.
On the drive over here, Jared had a lot on his mind.
How could he be so stupid, the child had been by his side for so long, yet he never realized it, never even suspected it.
But clearly, people in the company were spreading rumors that Summer was his illegitimate child, saying that Summer looked a lot like him. Even Leo had mentioned it more than once.
But he never thought about it in that direction.
Maybe he was just refusing to think about that lost child.
That was the deepest scar in his heart, every time it was opened, it would hurt him, and it took a long time to heal.
Since Agnes appeared, Jared had been feeling all messed up.
He couldnât think clearly and analyze things.
Agnesâ determination made him never doubt her words, that she didnât have the baby back then.
However, how could there be such a coincidence in this world. When he was in Manhattan, Jared felt something was off when he met Summer.
Every time he looked at Summer, his heart would soften, sometimes he even felt like crying.
When he get the call from Summer, saying he had left, Jared actually felt a sense of emptiness...
