Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 585

Agnes was really getting fed up with Jared.

She could even hear the creaking sound of bones.

But Agnes wasn’t sure if the sound was from her, or Jared.

His hand had turned a bright red.

“So what?” Agnes didn’t deny it.

Because she knew that all Jared’s anger now came from his dissatisfaction.

Because she, Agnes, suddenly disappeared, ditched him.

His anger now was all because of resentment in his heart.

Agnes knew that because of Nocturne, she and Jared must completely cut off contact.

Well, let him be thoroughly disappointed then.

Only despair could make a person give up their obsession.

Agnes started to say, “Yes, everything I did back then was to get away from you, whether you see it as

an excuse or deception, I just wanted to leave you at that time.”

“Why?” Jared asked in shock.

Agnes said, “Jared, don’t you get it? Because I don’t love you, because I’m sick of being Mrs.

Whitfield, with so many eyes on me. Without you, there wouldn’t be so many schemes around me. I’m

sick of your coldness and fickleness, Jared, look at you now, just like four years ago. Ryder and I are

about the same age, we have a lot in common, I don’t need to pretend to be the perfect Mrs. Whitfield,

don’t need to care about other people’s opinions, and don’t need to worry about those women around

you. My life now is very comfortable, which you could never give me. That’s the answer, Jared, that’s

the answer you want.”

Jared stared at Agnes, but only saw determination and indifference in her eyes.

Jared could no longer see a trace of warmth in Agnes‘ eyes.

Back then, she and Ryder were classmates, participated in plays together, and went to school

together.

In front of Ryder, she was always so happy, and so was he.

He only opened his heart to her.

Jared’s hand slowly loosened.

Agnes also looked into Jared’s eyes, watching the hope in his eyes fade away bit by bit.

Agnes finally escaped from Jared’s control.

“Agnes, you’re really heartless…”

Jared took a step back, his figure swaying a bit.

“Jared, all that is in the past, since we’ve both chosen new lives, let’s end it here. If we meet in the

future, pretend you don’t know me. I’ll try to stay out of your sight as much as possible, and I wish you

and Ms. Thomas a happy life.”

Jared turned around, but he laughed.

Wish him a happy life?

No, he would never be happy again in his life.

She’s really let go, that’s why she could say it so casually.

He came to confront her, but in his heart, he already knew the answer.

This answer had been tormenting him for four years.

So Agnes didn’t love him anymore.

All his efforts and persistence were just a one man show without an audience.

So she had already found her happy ending, while he was suffering alone in endless darkness.

“Agnes, hope you never show up in front of me again.”

Jared’s voice was unusually calm, but he was desperate inside.

Agnes laughed, she got the result she wanted, but why was her heart still in so much pain.

“Don’t worry, from today on, we won’t see each other again.”

Agnes turned around.

The two stood back to back.

Jared seemed to laugh softly, then walked out of the room.
