Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 225

As Agnes lay in bed, she suddenly felt powerless

Her mind was filled with images of Jared’s cold face

Her heart felt as heavy as a rock, making it hard for her to breathe.

As Agnes rolled over, the door was flung open. Upon seeing the person who walked in with pride, Agnes frowned.

“Beatrice Pritchard, it’s basic manners to knock before you enter someone’s room,” Agnes remarked.

“Beatrice, I’m tired Don’t start trouble or I promise you’ll regret it.”

“You gonna hit me? Yeah, right, Agnes I know you’re all badass with your taekwondo but you don’t have the guts to hurt me You’re just living off our dad’s quilt. If you ever hit me, he won’t love you anymore.”
