Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 521

Agnes had been knocking for a while, but no one was answering the door.

Where was her grandmother?

"Agnes, quit knocking. Your grandma moved out half a month ago."

Hearing the voice, Agnes turned around, surprised, "Mariela?"

Sure enough, it was Mariela.

Coming over, Mariela said, "Haven't seen you in four years. Never heard from you after you divorced the heir of the Whitfield family. Where've you been?"

Agnes forced a smile and said, "I relocated another place."

Agnes was vague about her whereabouts.

But Mariela looked like she'd just solved a puzzle, "I thought so! Agnes, I'm so envious of you. You've got all that dough, you don't have to put up with anyone's crap even after divorce, you can just start fresh somewhere else... Meanwhile, I'm stuck in this rundown country place, penniless, after my own divorce."

Agnes raised an eyebrow, "You were married?"

Mariela sighed, "Forget it, let's not go there. I must've been blind, married a total jerk."

Mariela didn't want to elaborate.

A lot must've happened in the past four years.

But right now, Agnes was mainly concerned about her grandmother.

She quickly asked, "Mariela, do you know where my grandma went?"

Mariela replied, "Your grandma, she was picked up by Mr. Whitfield."

Agnes felt a pang of anxiety.

Jared Whitfield?

Mariela continued, "I saw it with my own eyes, Mr. Whitfield came to pick her up himself half a month ago. Your grandma went with him."

And Agnes felt that Jared absolutely detested her now.

Seeing Agnes' expression, Mariela said, "Agnes, are you back to patch things up with Mr. Whitfield?"

Agnes was still lost in her past memories and didn't hear clearly, she paused, "Mariela, what did you say?"

Mariela said, "Agnes, you've not been this city these years, I'm not sure if you know about these things. Mr. Whitfield's personal life has been quite messy. You know the celebrity, Sharon? Rumor has it she's had four abortions for him. And your half-sister from your father's side, she's been his secret mistress for years, it's an open secret in the circle. Everyone knows about Mr. Whitfield's engagement to Valeria Thomas. Agnes, I know Mr. Whitfield treated you well before, but he's not the same man anymore. Don't let his sweet talk fool you."

Without thinking, Agnes frowned.

She had occasionally heard about Jared while in Manhattan.

But those were about his business affairs.

She didn't know much about his personal life, except for the news of Jared's upcoming engagement that was exposed by the media.

But hearing Mariela's words now, Agnes felt a heavy sadness in her heart.
