Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 1130

Elton's face tightened slightly, "You talking about Jenny Fitz?"

Agnes didn't say a word, which was as good as a confirmation.

Elton's voice was low, "No, I don't remember her anymore."

Though he said that, how could he possibly forget?

Agnes could tell, Elton clearly didn't want to bring up this topic.

So Agnes didn't push it.

"Let's go inside, it's freezing out here," Agnes suggested.

Turning, Agnes headed inside.

But Elton didn't follow.

Instead, he fished a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and placed one between his lips.

He tried to light it with his lighter a few times, but it wouldn't catch.

It wasn't clear if the lighter was frustrating him, or if it was the name Agnes had mentioned...

After Agnes went inside, Jared was sitting in the living room chatting with Hancock Taylor.

Upon entering, Agnes bid Hancock Taylor goodbye, "Hancock, it's time we head back."

It was getting late, and they didn't want to overstay their welcome.

Jared drove away from the Taylor Mansion.

Throughout the drive, Jared remained silent.

Agnes, curious, stole a few glances at him.

Raising an eyebrow, Jared asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Looking at our very own green-eyed monster. Wondering why you haven't grilled me about what Elton and I discussed?"

Sprague said, "Esther, that star in the sky is you."

"People turn into stars when they die, and I'm not dead yet," Esther replied.

"If you could choose, which star would you be?" Sprague asked.

Esther pointed to a star at the edge of the sky, "That one, next to the brightest star."

"Why?"

"Because my mom is that brightest star, and I want to be next to her."

Sprague was surprised, "Your mom is dead?"

Esther nodded, looking a bit sad, "I've never met my mom. They all say she's gone."

Esther sighed, "I really wish I could meet her."

Sprague let out a sigh, "I used to not have a dad. They told me he was dead. But then, I found out he's alive. But he and my mom are always fighting, their relationship is like enemies, fighting over my custody all the time. I almost wish I didn't know who my dad was. At least I used to think my dad was Spider-Man."
