Chapter 622
Agnes asked a bit nervously, “How does Tim know about Summer?”
Leo awkwardly replied, “Maybe he saw the news and assumed…”
Agnes immediately understood.
The old man must’ve thought Nocturne was Jared and Sharon’s love child.
Agnes held Nocturne tight, asserting, “No way, I won’t let Nocturne go back to the Whitfield family. He has nothing
to do with you guys!”
Jared scoffed, “Since Tim already knows, do you really think you can keep it a secret?”
Agnes knew she couldn’t hide it any longer, but the situation had spiraled beyond her control.
“Agnes, you wanted to end things between us, right? If you go back with me, I’ll sure it’s over between us.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAgnes felt that Jared sounded particularly tired when he said that.
Maybe Sharon had convinced him to let go, but what did Jared mean by “it’s over“?
Finally, Agnes followed Jared to the Whitfield Manor.
She hadn’t been here in four years, but everything seemed unchanged.
The flowers in front of the villa were in full bloom.
Pink petals were scattered all over the ground, making it feel like a fairy–tale world.
Just as the car stopped, Agnes got out.
The big golden retriever in the yard barked at her.
Agnes turned her head and shouted, “Oscar!”
Oscar seemed stunned.
Then he excitedly rushed to Agnes‘ feet, rolled over, exposing his belly, and rubbed his nose against Agnes‘ pants.
Agnes was surprised and said to Jared, “Can you believe Oscar still remembers me?”
“Agnes, you’re the only one who’s forgotten everything.” Jared’s voice was cold.
After saying that, he opened the car door and picked up Nocturne, who was sleeping.
Agnes knew Jared’s words had a deeper meaning, and it felt like a sting in her heart.
Jared took Nocturne inside, and Agnes followed.
Seeing Jared back, the butler said respectfully, “Mr. Whitfield, you’re back. Tim’s in the study.”
But when he turned his head, he saw Agnes.
The usually stern butler looked surprised and exclaimed, “Ms. Pritchard.”
He didn’t expect Jared to bring Agnes back after four years, and with a little boy.
Looking at Summer, the butler’s eyes softened, “This must be your child. He really looks like you when he was
young.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared looked gloomy, “Is Alyssa back?”
“She’s also in the study.”
Jared went straight upstairs with Nocturne.
Everything in the Whitfield family remained the same, even the nanny from four years ago was still there.
Seeing Agnes, they were all shocked as if they’d seen a ghost.
Agnes felt nervous.
But what had to be faced, still had to be faced.
Jared didn’t go to the study first, but took Agnes to a bedroom, the one they used to live in four years ago.
After settling Nocturne, Jared went to the study, and Agnes followed.
The study door was tightly closed.
Jared knocked twice, and the door was quickly opened.
Alyssa appeared at the door, asking, “You’re finally back, what on earth did you and Sharon…”
Alyssa stopped mid–sentence as she saw Agnes behind Jared.
