Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 605

Agnes tried to lighten the awkward mood with a joking tone, but Jared didn’t seem to be buying it.

His face looked even worse after Agnes finished speaking.

Yet, he remained silent, he just stared at Agnes with a cold gaze, making her feel uneasy.

Agnes had no idea what to say. She could only slowly back away.

She hadn’t gotten far when Jared grabbed her arm again, “Agnes, what the hell are you up to?”

The coldness in Jared’s voice was still there, Agnes could hear the hidden anger in his voice.

Agnes already had an explanation prepared, “Actually, I came back to get my ID”

She had thought out the worst–case scenario in the car.

If Jared found her before she found Nocturne, she’d have to find an excuse and get away as soon as possible.
