Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 526

The moment the elevator doors opened, Leo said, “Mr. Whitfield is in a meeting, Ms. Pritchard. You can

wait for him in the lounge.” Agnes nodded her head.

She waited in the lounge for a long time.

Although someone brought her coffee, she still didn’t see Jared.

Agnes waited for three hours, until it was past lunchtime.

Leo had come by a few times before, but now he was also gone.

When she asked about Jared, the other secretaries all said that the boss was still in a meeting

Agnes was not a person to be easily fooled.

The large conference room was right next to the lounge.

When she first arrived, she deliberately took a look, but it was empty.

Clearly, Jared didn’t want to see her, but he still made her wait here. What was that all about?

Not only did Agnes not understand, even Leo was confused.

If the boss didn’t want to see Agnes, he could just tell her directly, instead of having her wait.in the

lounge for a full three hours.

Leo had patiently reminded him twice.

Jared was buried in his papers, saying he was busy and asked him to wait.

He was Jared’s personal secretary, and he knew exactly whether his boss was busy or not.

However, when he reminded him for the third time, Leo finally understood why.

Because Jared had somehow pulled out the surveillance video of the lounge.

And then he just sat there, dumbly watching the person on the monitor.

To outsiders, he looked like an idiot, sitting there without moving, not even blinking.

His face was cold, just watching that woman’s every move.

Leo didn’t know what he was thinking.

He felt Jared was behaving very abnormally.

After working for Jared for so many years, Leo still couldn’t see through this man’s heart.

Jared clearly missed her, clearly had been looking for her for four years.

Now she had taken the initiative to come, but he refused to meet her, instead secretly watching her

every move here.

Leo went in, the last time to remind, “Boss, Ms. Pritchard hasn’t eaten lunch yet.”

When Jared saw Leo come in, he immediately closed his laptop, and then casually said, “Get her Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

something to eat, order from Cloud View, I’ll tell you the menu later.”

Was he really not planning to see Ms. Pritchard?

Was he determined not to see her?

Leo remembered that Cloud View was Ms. Pritchard’s favorite restaurant four years ago.

Since Jared still remembered her preferences, even remembered her favorite menu.

Why couldn’t he just see her and have a good chat?

But he had to obey whatever Jared said.

Just as Leo was about to leave, a secretary suddenly came to report, saying, “Ms. Pritchard just left

the conference room.”

Leo quickly returned to the boss’s office.

By this time, Jared had already opened his laptop.

His face was gloomy.

The screen of the laptop was still the surveillance video of the lounge.

Jared must have seen it with his own eyes.

But Leo still reported, “Boss, Ms. Pritchard has left.”

Jared didn’t say a word, his face still dark.

Leo asked again, “Boss, are we just going to let Ms. Pritchard leave?”

Based on Leo’s understanding of Jared, his current behavior was like deliberately acting cool. Although

it felt satisfying for a moment, he would soon regret it.

Just like when Jared first met Ms. Pritchard at the airport, Ms. Pritchard took the initiative to say hello,

and Jared pretended not to know her.

As soon as Leo left, Jared chased after her like a madman.

Having such a stubborn boss, Leo also felt troubled…

Jared was silent for a few seconds, then said, “Go tell her, if she wants to talk to me, she can go to

Room 888 of the WORLD International Hotel at eight o’clock tonight. Don’t be late.”
