Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 253

Agnes wasn’t daydreaming.

She’s been listening to their conversation all this time.

In their chat, Jared never considered another possibility.

That Mamie might be setting her up.

Jared said he’d get to the bottom of it and give Mamie an explanation.

Why the hell does he owe Mamie an explanation?

Agnes is the one being victimized here.

It’s most likely that Mamie set her up, so why is he still explaining things to her?

Jared insisted that he trusts Agnes’s integrity, but his only evidence in her favor is that “Agnes isn’t capable of pulling something like this off.”

He bought that necklace and kept it secret, which means he’s still having doubts.

He’s doubting if she really did steal, if she tainted the Whitfield family’s reputation, and if she set up Mamie.

Otherwise, he could’ve just launched a thorough investigation and made the results public.

Because he doesn’t fully trust Agnes, he’d rather shell out 20 million bucks to keep the peace!
