Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 97
Jared had left and everyone immediately surrounded Agnes.
“Agnes, are you close with Mr. Whitfield? Why is he so sweet to you?”
“Mr. Whitfield tying your shoelaces was such a gentlemanly and handsome move, it made us all really happy”
“Agnes, does Mr. Whitfield have a thing for you?”
“Do you two have some secret? Agnes, I heard you’ve been promised a position, is it because of Mr. Whitfield?*
It finally dawned on Agnes Jared must have done this on purpose, making her the center of attention!
Agnes deliberately said loudly. “Have any of you heard of obsessive–compulsive disorder, I heard that Mr. Whitfield is a serious
patient with obsessive–compulsive disorder, so when he saw that my shoelaces were loose, he would definitely help to tie them
up. Didn’t you notice his relieved expression just after tying the shoelaces? This is a typical manifestation of obsessive–
compulsive disorder patients.”
Everyone was enlightened.
Although Agnes was also the lady of a wealthy family, she and Jared seemed to be from two worlds. Jared, even being a star in
their circle, never gave Agnes a second look He couldn’t possibly be interested in a newbie like Agnes. This explanation made
more sense.
Everyone silently decided, the next time Jared appeared again, they must quietly loosen their shoelaces.
Meanwhile, Ivan, standing in the hallway of the third floor, witnessed all this.
He almost laughed out loud as Jared walked up to him.
Ivan said to Jared, “Your wife is interesting”
Jared replied coldly. “Weren’t you supposed to use a stand–in for the kiss scene?”
Ivan innocently responded, “Things change, I did find a stand–in. But they didn’t use him, I can’t do anything about it, I’m not the
director.”

Jared knew he couldn’t blame Ivan. He saw Agnes volunteered.
Thinking about it made Jared even more uneasy
Ivan continued, “Jared, there’s one thing I still have to tell you. Justin actually proposed to your wife a year ago. I know Justin, he
seems like a playboy but he hasn’t had a real girlfriend in years. When he was at the top of Century Entertainment, he suddenly
signed with Starlight International Group on his own initiative. After so many years, I still can’t figure it out. Now I’m thinking does
this have anything to do with Agnes?”
Jared’s face darkened, Ivan said, “I had no idea your young wife had so many fans. Where did you find such a character?”
Jared didn’t respond, frowning.
Ivan found that this man really cared about this woman. Just as Agnes was leaving the villa, Justin’s Ferrari pulled up in front of
her
Justin said, “Get in the car.”
Agnes didn’t want to get in the car, afraid it would cause unnecessary rumors, but Justin just slowly drove alongside her.
His car was a convertible, and Justin whistled at her casually, which Agnes felt drew more attention.
Finally, out of options, Agnes got in and said, “Justin, can you not do this in the future?”
