Chapter 240
Agnes was staring blankly at Ryder
She totally didn’t see that coming.
As always, Ryder’s face was cold and indifferent.
He spoke as if he was telling someone else’s story, flat and emotionless.
Yet Agnes was totally freaking out.
Agnes barely dared to look into Ryder’s eyes: “Why would you…?”
Agnes was a complete mess
Ryder calmly replied, “Im telling you this just to let you know that he didn’t misunderstand me. I don’t
want you to not believe him and cause misunderstandings between you two”
Agnes was at a loss for words.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, Ryder’s admission now was also to prove that Jared was right, to avoid any conflict between them?
But
Agnes felt like things just got a whole lot more complicated.
Ryder paused for a moment, his voice seemed to drift from afar
“Agnes, Ive liked you for a long time, since the first day of college when you handed nie a bottle of
mineral water I didn’t want to say it, but I know that hiding it now would only cause more
misunderstandings. But there’s only one thing I want to tell you now, Agnes, like you. It’s my business,
not yours, you get it?”
After saying this, Ryder turned around and left the rooftop.
Agnes stood there dumbfounded, staring at his back, muttering to herself, “I don’t get it.”
Agnes was zoning out on the balcony..
A gust of cold wind blew by, clearing her muddled thoughts a little.
Once Agnes came to her senses, she realized that she had misunderstood Jared.
And during that time, Agnes thought Jared was just being unreasonable, petty, and ridiculous.
But now..

Agnes found herself overwhelmed with emotions as she stood on the rooftop. After a while, lost in her
thoughts, she decided to head inside. Unaware of her surroundings, she accidentally bumped into a
man, and her reflex made her step back and apologize. It was then that she recognized the man as
Ivan. Ivan chuckled, teasing her, “You still got that habit of not looking where you’re going, huh?”
The memory of Ivan saving her from a near accident while crossing the street flashed in Agnes’s mind.
She felt a bit embarrassed and assured him, “I’ll be more careful.”
As Agnes tried to move past him, Ivan called her back. Curious, she turned around and asked, “What’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmup?”
Ivan informed her, “The premiere date for The Magical Romance of Cinderella’ is set for Christmas, a
month from now. Are you available? I’d like you to participate in the pre-launch promotional activities”
Agnes replied eagerly, “Sure, I’m free. Just send me the schedule when it’s ready”
Even though Agnes hadn’t signed any contracts, she felt it was the least she could do as a main cast
member of the show.
Ivan suggested, “Let’s have lunch together tomorrow. I’d like to discuss our upcoming work schedule in
detail”
Agnes agreed right away
“Oh, by the way, have you seen Jared?*
Ivan replied. “He should be in the break room. I heard Alyssa might have gotten hurt, and Jared went to
see her.”
Hearing that Alyssa might be injured, Agnes, not knowing what had happened, immediately said. “I’ll go
check on her too
