Chapter 721
Countess Alexandra was taken aback. With a second look at Kearney, she asked, “Kearney, isn’t Agnes your
fiancée?”
A hint of hurt flashed across Kearney’s face as he replied, “I wasn’t prepared I thought it was the right time. I’ll
have a serious talk with her. She’s a lovely and kind–hearted girl, that’s why many people love her.”
Everyone looked at Kearney with sympathy. It was clear that he had no idea this was coming. He was so close to
success, yet a curveball was thrown his way. That must have been hard to swallow
At this moment. Bella came to Kearney’s side.
Seeing the pain etched on Kearney’s face. Bella felt a pang in her heart. She comforted him in her broken English,

girlfriend.”
Bella’s words shocked Count and Countess Alexandra, and Valeria.
It was fortunate that the surrounding French guests didn’t understand Bella’s words.
Valeria was particularly surprised.
Kearney was indeed a formidable character. Although she couldn’t tell if his feelings for Agnes were genuine or
fake, he managed to win the heart of Bella, the little princess, on their first meeting. This rival was not to be
underestimated, she thought.
After Agnes ran out of the hall, she didn’t know where she was going.
It wasn’t out of anger The incident was indeed beyond her expectations, but it wasn’t enough to make her lose
control. It was when she looked at Kearney, he gave her a signal to run out.
Agnes knew that staying at the event would only make things even more awkward, and she had no idea what Jared
might do
Kearney signaled her to escape, and she couldn’t have been happier.
After Agnes left, she initially wanted to find Kearney’s car. But she didn’t expect to enter a garden maze. After a few
rounds, she was completely lost
When it rains, it pours.
Jared, however, followed her all the way. He kept a distance of about two meters from her
Agnes stopped when she reached a dead end and turned around, “Jared, you ruined everything today.”
Jared just stood there, watching Agnes silently.

Agnes was still filled with anger, but Jared’s anger seemed to have completely disappeared, all that was left was a
thick sense of sadness and helplessness
“I know I messed up,” Jared said quietly “But, Agnes, I can’t control myself I can’t stand to see you marrying
someone else.” Jared looked sad, his aura no longer sharp and cold, but filled with sorrow. It was a type of sorrow
that made one’s heart ache to see.
Agnes casually said, “Dummy, it’s a sham.”
Something flickered in Jared’s eyes. He took two steps toward Agnes, “What do you mean, what’s a sham?”
Agnes suddenly realized that she might have revealed too much. This was Kearney’s business matter. Although
Agnes didn’t understand how the proposal could boost their business, Valeria and Kearney were business rivals, so
she couldn’t say too much
Agnes pursed her lips, “The proposal was a sham. It was all just an act. But now you’ve messed it all up.”
