Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 718

The mere mention of Kearney caused a scowl to darken Jared’s face.

Jared remained silent as Valeria continued, “But don’t say I didn’t warn you, Jared. Don’t push things too far. The Count and Countess Alexandra

are watching closely, and they despise deceit. If they discover that we’re not really married, it could become quite troublesome.”

Jared frowned, replying, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep my actions in check. I won’t put you in a difficult situation”

Valeria didn’t say any more.

On the other side of the room, Agnes spotted Kearney, who was standing with Count and Countess Alexandra.

Their little daughter, Bella, was also standing by his side.

Their gazes were all directed at Agnes.

Count Alexandra and his wife wore expressions of confusion, while Bella’s face was filled with anger.

Agnes felt as though a stone had been placed on her heart.
