Heartstrings On Fire

Chapter 604

Chapter 604

The sound of water in the bathroom was still going.

Seeing the blurred silhouette and steaming water behind the frosted glass, Agnes suddenly felt sadness.

Nothing here had changed.

From the moment she stepped into Maplewood Manor, it was like she had been transported back to four years ago.

Past memories played like a movie in her mind, scene by scene.

Agnes tried to pull herself out of the past emotions.

If Nocturne wasn’t in the bedroom, where could he be?

She had to find Nocturne immediately, so Agnes turned to leave.

But just then, she heard the sound of the glass door sliding open.

Agnes‘ heart sank, her body seemed frozen.

She knew she should run right away, maybe she could escape.

But her mind went blank, unable to react to anything.

The sound behind her suddenly disappeared.

Even though her back was to Jared, she could imagine his face.

He must think she was an intruder.

Agnes finally snapped out of it. She decided to run immediately.

Her car was outside, a new one with no license plate. Agnes wasn’t worried about Jared finding her.

She quickly made the decision and started to act.

She put on her hat and started to run.

“Agnes!” Jared’s roar came from behind.

Agnes‘ heart rate sped up, but she didn’t look back, just ran faster.

However, she heard footsteps behind her.

Finally, she was caught by Jared at the bedroom door. Jared pulled her hard.

Agnes was spun around by his pull.

She lost balance, tried to grab something, but ended up grabbing Jared’s towel.

Agnes hadn’t expected things to turn out this way.

Jared’s face was grim, He didn’t say anything, just stared at Agnes.

Agnes didn’t intend to react at first.

But facing naked Jared, she was just too embarrassed.

In the end, she decided to compromise first.

She slowly squatted down, picked up the towel on the floor, and tied it around Jared’s waist.

All the while, she kept her head turned away, eyes closed.

Jared just stared at her.

Agnes let go of the towel after tying it, but still kept her head turned, slightly opening her eyes.

She found Jared’s gaze icy cold.

Agnes realized she could no longer avoid him.

So she turned her head and met Jared’s eyes, saying, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.

Jared didn’t respond, his gaze still fixed on her face.

All Agnes felt was coldness and pressure, Jared’s gaze was like silently judging her.

“Actually, as a man, you haven’t lost anything. Besides, I’ve long lost interest in your body, so you really don’t need

to take it too personally.”
