SWNOVELS Chapter 235
Chapter 235
They both started to get up and dress.
Not long after, the doorbell rang again.
Agnes went to answer the door, and there stood Beatrice
Agnes asked, “What brings you here this early?”
Beatrice was busy peeping into the room.
Upon seeing Jared, she said, “You’re up already. My mom wants you to come over for breakfast, she made soup herself.”
By then, Jared had made his way to the door.
He casually asked Agnes, “Can you check this button for me? It won’t button up.”
Agnes turned around.
Jared’s shirt was on, except for the collar button.
Agnes turned back to help Jared button up, and it was done in no time.
But Jared grabbed Agnes‘ hand and kissed it gently, “Thanks, honey”
Seeing this, Beatrice’s face darkened.
Jared then acted like he just noticed her, his voice instantly cold, “Got it. We’ll be right over.”
Beatrice forced a smile, “I’ll be going then. Hurry up.”
She left, clenching her fists.
She had initially come to witness their meltdown.
She thought the two would quarrel over Elton, but how come their relationship seemed even better after a night?
And Jared’s gaze seemed to linger on Agnes all the time.
He didn’t even look at her from start to finish.
Beatrice was fuming.
She couldn’t help but storm into the kitchen.
She said to Laura, “I can’t stand it anymore. Didn’t you say they’d be divorced within a year? Why are they still together?”
Laura glanced at the door and glared at Beatrice, “Watch your mouth. What if someone heard?”
Beatrice was exasperated, “Seeing them so intimate irritates me. Why would someone as outstanding as Jared fall for an ordinary woman like Agnes? I’m younger and prettier than Agnes. Why won’t he even glance at me?”
Laura spoke calmly, “Men need variety sometimes. He might be tired of the same type of women. If he likes Agnes type, you need to act more graceful and innocent in front of him. Look at you now, can’t even hold it in. How are you going to replace Agnes and become Jared’s wife?”
The mention of Jared’s wife excited Beatrice immensely.
Beatrice tugged at Laura’s arm, “Mom, tell me, what’s your plan? I don’t want to wait anymore. Help me, mom.”
“Alright, calm down. Don’t worry, Agnes‘ birthday is coming. I need to confirm something. It’s a great opportunity.”
At breakfast.
Laura said, “Agnes, your birthday is coming. Your dad and I discussed, we didn’t celebrate your 20th birthday properly last year, so we want to make it up to you this year. Your dad has booked a floor at Caesar International Hospital. We’re going to throw you a proper party. We’ll invite all your friends and classmates, including Jared. You can let his family know. We hope they can make it.”
Jared responded, “Of course, I’ll be there.”
Actually, Agnes never thought about having a big party.
But Laura and Preston didn’t discuss with her and sent out all the invitations.
They even invited all the big shots.
In the past, these people might not necessarily show.
But this time, no one was missing.
