Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)
Chapter 522

Chapter 522

Agnes started off, "Mariela, I appreciate your concern, but I've totally cut ties with that guy, there's no way we're getting together again, so you don't need to keep advising me about him."

Mariela replied with a smile, "Agnes, don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm jealous or anything. We've been friends since we were kids and I've seen you get hurt once. I just don't want to see you getting hurt again."

Agnes didn't want to continue the conversation, "Mariela, there's one more thing I want to ask you. If my granny comes back, could you let me know right away?" "Absolutely, I treat your granny like my own. Obviously, I want her to be safe, too."

That night, Agnes left the countryside and headed back to Willowbrook Town.

As soon as she got off the freeway, she went straight to Tim Tower.

By the time she reached the entrance of Tim Tower, it was already nine in the morning.

Agnes had been up all night again.

But she didn't feel sleepy at all.

She still couldn't understand why Jared took her granny away.

If it was to get back at her, but her granny left half a month ago. At that time, she hadn't even met Jared.

What worried Agnes more was, for such a long time, Agnes had tried to persuade her granny to live with her countless times, but her granny was too attached to her home and refused to leave. Agnes knew, the elderly just wanted to spend their remaining years in a familiar place.

Her granny had lived in the countryside her entire life and knew everything and everyone there.

What on earth did Jared say to convince her granny to leave her home?

The more Agnes thought about it, the more scared she became. She even feared that Jared had forced her granny to leave.

Agnes sat in the car for a long time, but finally got out and entered Tim Tower.

She had been to this place countless times four years ago, so almost everyone recognized her.

Now that she was here, Agnes felt that nothing had changed, yet everything had.

Four years is neither short nor long.

The four pretty girls who used to be at the front desk have been replaced, still gorgeous, but not the same people from before.

Those employees coming and going, Agnes didn't recognize a single face.

Agnes wanted to go straight to the CEO's office, but was stopped by the receptionist, "Miss, you don't have a work badge. Are you here to see someone?" Agnes said, "I'm here to see Jared." Agnes' voice was cold.

She didn't want to have anything to do with Jared after she returned to the country, but now she was the one seeking him out.

But Agnes had no choice.

She had to know where Jared had taken her granny.

Agnes called out Jared's name directly.

The receptionists looked at her oddly and checked her out from head to toe.

One of them asked in a cold tone, "Do you have an appointment with our CEO?"

Agnes shook her head.

She had almost forgotten, Jared was a busy man.

He wasn't the kind of person who could meet at any time.

But in the past, she could go in and out of Jared's office freely, always taking his private elevator.

However, now everything was different. To see Jared, she had to go through some procedures first. Agnes asked, "Can you help me make an appointment?"
