Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 332

From the moment she found out Agnes was Julia's daughter, Alyssa knew the day would come.

She just didn't see it coming this fast, this sudden.

And her first reaction was denial.

If Agnes wasn't sure, she wouldn't ask her straight out if she knew Julia.

But if Agnes knew about her past with Julia, she wouldn't ask her like this.

Alyssa's secrets, those deep in her memory, were like a mirror covered in dust.

And now, a gust of wind had come and blown away all the dust from the past.

The painful, dark, even mad past was reflected clearly in the mirror, making her scared and shaking.

Tim was already in the dining room, looking really happy to see Agnes.

"Agnes, it's been a while since you've been home. You've lost weight."

Agnes laughed, "Dad, I didn't lose weight, and I'll visit you more often."

Tim let out a sigh on purpose, "We don't have many people in our family. Recently I feel more and more lonely in this big house. It would be much livelier with a kid around."

Agnes was bothered.

Every time she visited, Tim would bring up this topic repeatedly.

Sometimes it was about his old war buddies holding their grandkids, sometimes about the housekeeper resigning to take care of her own kids.

Agnes understood his loneliness, but she can't just have a kid immediately because he wants one.

Besides, she hasn't graduated yet, and she and Jared haven't even started planning their wedding.

Just then, Ryder walked in.

Hearing what Tim said, he stopped at the door.

Agnes felt complicated. Tim's favoritism towards Jared had reached this point.

The child wasn't even born yet, and he already said he would leave all the Whitfield family's assets to them.

But Ryder was also Tim's grandson, he even changed his last name.

Agnes sighed in her heart.

Ryder had already come in. Tim asked, "Where's Alyssa?"

Ryder replied, "Mom said she wasn't feeling well, so she didn't want to have dinner tonight."
