Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 312

A few kilometers from Foxglove Village, there’s this place called Starfall Village.

The town was surrounded by water on three sides, with some of the houses even built directly on the water. To get around, people had to boat it.

Every year, just before the end of the year, Starfall Village hosted a boat race.

The boat race was the most popular event of the year, so people from many surrounding villages were attracted to come here. And there were plenty of other fun activities happening around the same time.

Right in the thick of it all, Agnes agreed without hesitation.

On one hand, she thought it was a rare opportunity. Since she was back in town during this big bash, she could also take Jared to experience it.

On the other hand, Agnes knew her grandma well enough to know that if they were home tomorrow, she’d find all kinds of ways to rope Jared into doing chores. Jared had only been back for two days and he’d already done a ton of manual labor.

If the Whitfield family found out, they’d feel sorry for him.
