Justin stated, “I get it, she met you first. But Mr. Whitfield, you better treat Agnes right. In this era of

frequent divorces, I won’t hesitate to swoop in and take her if you mess

Jared answered nonchalantly. “You won’t get the chance. We’re pretty harmonious and might have a

His smile was infectious, but it sent chills down Agnes spine. She could only nod vaguely

Jared affectionately ruffled Agnes hair

Watching them, Justin couldn’t stomach it any longer and left the lounge

Jared turned to Agnes, Tm uncomfortable with you working with a guy who’s into you”

Agnes chuckled, “Well, Justin is quite handsome and has a lot of fans.”

His assistant even handed out gift cards, which were very generous.

Laura walked in, “Why arent you dressed yet? We’re visiting the Whitfields today. Don’t be late.”

Beatrice was furious, “I’m not going! I can’t stand Agnes smug face. I can’t accept her success!”

Laura approached Beatrice, disdainfully asking “Is that all you’re capable of as my daughter?”

Beatrice sobbed, “But she’s married to Jared now. I’ve lost my chance. What can I do now?”

Laura laughed coldy. “So what if she’s marned? Didn’t your father marry Julia first? But who’s enjoying

the high life as Mrs. Pritchard now? Isn’t it me?”
