Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 457

The night was quiet. Agnes was sitting solo on the couch in her room.

It was as if she was swallowed by the darkness.

This was Maplewood Manor.

Agnes had been back for a long time. It was already 2 in the morning, and Jared hadn’t come back.

Agnes had no idea where Jared had gone.

It seemed like a ton had gone down today.

From finding out she was knocked up, running into Valeria, to setting up Beatrice for a cheating scandal.

And to top it off, she found out a major secret about the Whitfield family.

Agnes felt beat.

She didn’t even know why she came back, maybe she had nowhere else to go.

Laura and her daughter hadn’t moved out yet, they would for sure be back at Pritchard Mansion tonight.

After all that went down tonight, Agnes didn’t want any more drama.
