Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 20

Suddenly, all eyes were on Agnes. She wasn't sure what Jenny was up to, but she was sure that Jenny had a goal in mind.

Before Agnes could say anything, Jenny continued, "Seems like Agnes and Mr. Whitfield are more than just friends, eh?"

Jenny purposely made her statement sound vague, causing everyone to look at Agnes with a strange look in their eyes.

Lily asked, "Agnes, do you know Jared?"

Everyone knew Agnes' family background - her father was a media mogul. Therefore, it wasn't completely out of the question for someone of Agnes' social standing to know someone important like Jared.

Agnes glanced at Jenny and said, "I did meet Jared during my internship with the Tim Group over the winter break, but he's super busy all the time. I don't think he'll agree to an interview."

Everyone else was thinking along the same lines as Agnes, but Jenny was still persistent.

Jenny said, "How will we know if we don't give it a shot? Since we've got this chance, why not take a stab at it? I propose I do the first special interview. With Agnes' help, I believe we can pull it off."

Lily thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you two handle the first interview. Do your best. I'm about to graduate. If you guys can really score an exclusive with Jared, the club president position is yours."

After the meeting, Agnes left the classroom, but Jenny followed her. "Agnes, wait up."

Agnes stopped and turned around, her tone icy, "What do you want?"

Jenny suddenly changed her previous attitude and looked at Agnes pitifully, "Agnes, about Elton... I know I messed up. I don't want to lose you as a friend. Can you forgive me? Can we be like before?"

Jenny chuckled, "Or is he not really your boyfriend? Was that scene in the meeting room just an act?"

Jenny had suspected this for a while.

The last incident was too coincidental, and she had thought that Agnes' reaction at the time was a bit forced. It could just be Jared being spontaneous and playing the hero.

More compelling evidence came from Yolanda, who was interning with her at the Tim Group's secretarial department. Yolanda said that Agnes was the least favored intern by the CEO and faced many difficulties during her internship.

If Jared really was Agnes' boyfriend, there should have been some rumors.

So Jenny was convinced that Jared's appearance in the meeting room last time was purely coincidental!
