Chapter 274

Agnes couldn’t take it anymore. She stormed into the office: “Beatrice, what on earth are you doing here?”

It was only when she entered did she notice that Beatrice was holding a check. However, she couldn’t make out the

amount on the check

Agnes was taken aback: “What’s that you’re holding? Let me see.”

Beatrice quickly stuffed the check into her bag, a smile spreading across her face: “It’s a little something from

Jared. Agnes, you haven’t been home in ages. Did you know Dad’s company is in hot water? We’re all family here,

there’s no harm in asking Jared for help unless you don’t consider him family.

“Beatrice, you must think I was born yesterday. Even if Dad’s company is in trouble, you should have come to me,

not Jared. What’s going on between you two? What gives you the right to ask him for money?”

That got Beatrice’s blood boiling. But with Jared around, she had to keep her cool and not lose her temper.

All she could do was grit her teeth and say: “Agnes, you’ve married into money, and you’re living it up in showbiz, so

naturally, we’re beneath your notice. But I wouldn’t be doing this if we weren’t in a tight spot. Jared hasn’t said a

word, yet here you are bad-mouthing me. If you don’t believe me, you can go home and ask.

Dad”

Tears welled up in Beatrice’s eyes, making her look like she was wronged.

She shot a glance at Agnes, only to find Jared’s eyes fixed on Agnes, completely oblivious to her emotional state.

Beatrice knew Agnes was stubborn. The last thing she wanted to do was owe someorie a favor, even if that

someone was Jared.

Beatrice was afraid that Agnes would demand the money back. She turned to Jared and said: “I won’t bother you

any longer. I’ll be on my way.”

Agnes tried to stop Beatrice, but Jared held her back: “Hold on. Didn’t you come to see me? Why are you leaving so

soon?”

Agnes was furious “Jared, what the hell did you do? Why did you give her money?!

Jared chuckled, pulling Agnes onto his lap: “Are you mad?”

“Jared, what’s going on?”

Jared wanted to enjoy her angry face a bit longer, but seeing how livid she was, he decided not to tease her

anymore.

He honestly said. “Beatrice came to borrow five hundred thousand dollars, saying your father is in a financial bind.

So, I lent it to her.”

Agnes frowned “How could you just hand over the money like that? Do you just believe whatever she says?”

Jared said: “Half a million isn’t a big deal. I heard your father’s recent investments went belly-up. If she came to

me, your family must know about it too. We can ask when we go home. If there is a problem at home, it’s my

responsibility to help.”

Agnes frowned more deeply

To be honest, there was a rift between her and Preston Pritchard because of Laura, but if his company was in

serious trouble, Agnes would never stand by and do nothing

Her mother also contributed to the establishment of this company.

What Agnes couldn’t accept was that Preston didn’t say a word to her, but let Beatrice ask Jared for money directly.

This put Agnes in a really awkward spot.
