Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 139

Beatrice was over the moon.

She thought Jared was just into Agnes for her looks and was just messing around with her.

Now that the cat was out of the bag, Agnes became his liability, and he would ditch her without a second thought.

Beatrice was just waiting for the moment to see Agnes's reputation take a nosedive.

Even though the news had hit the fan, Director Zoe didn't give a hoot; all the morning shoots went as planned.

Even though no one directly addressed it, it was in everyone's mind.

At lunch, Agnes received a message from Jared.

It was a simple text: 2 p.m., Tim Tower President's meeting room, let's call it quits.

Agnes stared at her phone for a good ten minutes.

She felt like a knife was cutting her.

Even though she saw this day coming, it still hurt like hell.

Was it over?

Jared finally got it; she should breathe a sigh of relief.

But under the current circumstances, Agnes had no clue how Jared would deal with it.

Maybe to save Mamie's face, he would really do as Beatrice predicted and cut ties with her.

If Jared had some decency, he might publicly announce their short-lived marriage and sign the divorce papers.

But Agnes thought, given their current relationship, Jared wouldn't be that decent.

No matter the outcome, Agnes was ready to bite the bullet.

As Agnes was in a daze, Justin sat down next to her, "I'll go with you this afternoon."

Agnes immediately put her phone away.

Justin gave her a glance, "Don't hide it; I saw it."

Yolanda Bowman stood directly before Agnes: "Is it true about you and Mr. Whitfield?"

Yolanda was a year ahead of her, had already graduated, and worked in the secretary department.

But during her internship, Agnes noticed that Yolanda had a big crush on Jared.

"This is my business and has nothing to do with you." Agnes didn't know Yolanda very well and was not in the mood to explain.

After saying that, Agnes bypassed her and was about to leave.

Yolanda was so angry that she stomped her foot and pointed at Agnes's back, "You shameless homewrecker, how dare you show up today? I want to see what happens to you."

Yolanda didn't even care about her image anymore.

All because she had been crushing on Jared for so long and was still ignored by him.

But the photo leaked yesterday; Jared was so passionate, radiating masculine solid charm, which was a total opposite of his usual cold demeanor.

It's not that she resented Agnes for being the third wheel, but why couldn't she be Jared's lover?
