Chapter 607

Jared walked to the door, ready to swing it open.

His hand had already grazed the doorknob.

Agnes‘ thoughts came to a screeching halt, she had probably never been this nervous. It felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff, with one foot already over the line.

The next second, she would plunge into the abyss, breaking every bone in her body.

A battle was raging deep within Agnes‘ consciousness.

Only one thought kept hammering in her mind stop Jared from opening the door.

He can’t open the door!

The door was already ajar.

The next moment, Agnes rushed forward, wrapped her arms around Jared, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed him.

Jared was visibly taken aback, his body going rigid.

His hand stopped in its tracks.

Agnes leaned against the door, slamming it shut.

A sigh of relief escaped her lips as the door closed.

All her attention had been on what lay beyond the door.
