Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 85

Agnes couldn’t believe Justin just blurted out the whole thing.

A year ago, Agnes met Justin for the first time al a grand gala. She thought he was pretty awesome. Bu t she didn’t expect his first words to her would be. “Hey girl, wanna marry me?”

Agnes was taken aback. She thought, the guy was surely handsome but he must have been off his roc ker.

They didn’t know each other, had no connections, and it was the first time Agnes had ever seen him.

She turned him down on the spol.

She never told anyone about this, not even her then boyfriend Elton.

Ivan, however, was not too surprised. He smirked, “Well, here’s a shocker. You might be the only one who turned down a proposal from Justin”

Hearing Ivan say this, Justin seemed a bit miffed. “She broke my heart big time. It’s been a year and th e wound is still fresh.”

Agnes was speechless.

Justin added, “Hey, who’d have thought we’d have such a connection? Now that we have a chance to i nteract more, you’re bound to fall for me.”

Agnes replied coldly. “No chance. I’m not into guys who are prettier than girls.”

Upon hearing this, Justin seemed quite pleased. He reached out to pinch Agnes‘ cheek, “Is that a com pliment? The woman that I’m gonna marry sure has a unique way of praising people”

Ivan chimed in, “Dream on. You’re out of the race.”

“Why?”

“She’s married,” Ivan calmly stated

Upon hearing this, Justin’s face changed, clutching his chest in disbelief, “Is that for real?

Agnes didn’t want anyone to know she was married, but she didn’t mind Ivan spilling the beans.

So she admitted, “Yes, it’s true.”

Justin suddenly looked heartbroken, “How could you leave me for another man?”

Agnes was speechless. This guy really deserved his Best Actor title. He quickly slipped into character, his portrayal of sorrow was quite convincing NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

But when did she ever leave him? They were never together. They were practically strangers.

Agnes was speechless as she watched him dramatically squeeze out a tear.

What a drama queen!

Ivan said, “Alright, stop messing with her.”

Justin immediately straightened up proudly like a peacock, elegantly took out a small mirror and wiped away his tears, “Even if she’s married, no biggie. I can still steal her away After all, I’m this handsome. I don’t believe anyone can resist me, twice.”

Agnes was speechless.

After meeting Justin, she went to The Simon’s Both the director and the scriptwriter were present.

Justin was very familiar with these people. The atmosphere was as relaxed as old friends hanging out.

The official induction of the crew started in the afternoon, and the opening ceremony was scheduled for three o’clock.

When Beatrice saw Agnes appearing with the director and the producer, her astonishment was beyond words.
