Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 50

Jared stepped out of his car and walked over to Agnes, leisurely taking off his trench coat and draping it over Agnes‘ shoulders. Then he sat down beside Agnes, his voice low and slow, “Why didn’t you answer your phone? Do you know how worried I was?” Agnes kept her head down, not saying a word.

Jared reached out and held Agnes‘ hand

His palm was dry and warm Jared asked, “What had happened? Can you tell me about it?”

Agnes didn’t know where to start and remained silent.

Suddenly, Jared pulled Agnes into his arms, “No matter what happened, I’m here for you. Even if the world collapses, I’ll protect you.”

Hearing this, Agnes couldn’t hold back her tears.

When Mr. Taylor expressed his disappointment, she didn’t cry. When Jenny framed her, she didn’t cry. When Elton said he wanted to cut ties, Agnes didn’t cry either.

But when Jared said he would protect her, Agnes burst into tears.

Jared was taken aback, patting Agnes‘ back like he was comforting a child, continuously asking her what happened.

Agnes cried for a long time, finally sobbing out the whole story to Jared.
