Chapter 752 Yolanda casually flipped through Agnesâ resume, her eyes scanning the details.
Four years at a top global news network, and then you suddenly decided to come back home. Why is that?â she asked, her tone nonchalant.
Everyone knew that Jaredâs exâwife had disappeared without a trace four years ago. But as time passed, people gradually forgot about her. Now her sudden reappearance was puzzling. Rumors of Jaredâs broken engagement and illegitimate child made the situation even more intriguing Could Agnes be involved?
Yolanda looked at Agnes, trying to gauge her reaction. This woman was no longer Mrs. Whitfield. Yolanda remembered all too well how much she had suffered at Agnes hands when they were younger. If it wasnât for Agnes, Yolanda might have become Jaredâs wife herself. She could still vividly remember the humiliation Jared had put her through because of Agnes.
But as the saying goes, what goes around, comes around Now Agnes was in Yolandaâs power Agnes gave a small laugh and came up with a reason on the spot. âMy grandmaâs getting on in years and needed someone to look after her, so I decided to come back home.â
She didnât want Yolanda to know that her return had anything to do with Jared. Their past quarrel had been over him, after all. In fact, she was considering resigning altogether. She knew Yolandaâs character well enough to expect retaliation from her. But she was reluctant to leave her new column. So she decided to bide her time and see what happened. She had heard from colleagues that Yolanda was now married. After all these years, perhaps she had presumably let go of her past obsession with Jared.
Yolanda gave a light laugh and swiftly signed off on the report. She had suspected that Agnesâ sudden appearance might be related to Jared. But everyone knew how Agnes and Jaredâs marriage had ended. Agnes had exposed the Whitfield familyâs dirty secrets for some unknown reason and had been kicked out by Jared. They must have cut all ties by now.
Moreover, the rumors about Jaredâs broken engagement involved a celebrity named Sharon, as did the reports about an illegitimate child Agnes was clearly not involved in any of this.
How could she have thought that Agnes return might have something to do with Jared? Things would be much simpler if that were the case. The Pritchard family was bankrupt now, and the Starlight International Group had been taken over by Century Entertainment. Agnes was clearly on her own Î ÎÎ¥ Yolanda would have to keep her close for now and deal with her slowly. She smiled lightly and said, âAgnes, Iâve gone through your resume and everything seems fine. Welcome to our News Department.â
Agnes smiled back Thank you, Director.â
Yolanda handed the report to Agnes, her voice softening. We both come from the same university, and we have the bond of being alumnae. Iâll naturally take care of you I know we had some unpleasant experiences during our internship at the Tim Group, but times have changed, and weâve all moved on i hope there wonât be any hard feelings between us.â
Agnes laughed lightly. âAs long as you donât hold a grudge, Director.
Yolanda smiled. âWell then, why donât you go and get familiar with the working environment?â
Agnes nodded. âSure, Directorâ
