Chapter 711

Jared merely grunted, “Who gave you that ruby necklace?”

It was odd what Jared cared about.

Agnes answered casually, “That piece of jewelry belongs to Bro Kear, it’s very important. Could you help me find it?”

Upon hearing the words “very important“, Jared’s hand, resting in his coat pocket, clenched involuntarily.

He knew he should return the bracelet to Agnes. He didn’t stoop to the level of keeping things that weren’t his.

But seeing Agnes so flustered, an uncontrollable surge of anger welled up within him.

Jared lifted his chin, “I haven’t seen it.”

Agnes glanced at him. His face was impassive.
