Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)
Chapter 590

Chapter 590

Kerri asked in a hurry, "Was it Sprague who was taken or another child?"

"It was another child." Devin said, panting heavily.

Agnes and Kerri felt a heavy blow at the same time.

It was Nocturne.

Nocturne was taken by Brayden's people.

"Devin, don't call the cops yet. I'll handle this, and don't spread this around the hospital either." Kerri told Devin.

No one in the hospital knew about Kerri's relationship with Brayden.

This kind of kidnap-like situation had happened several times before.

Brayden's people failed every time in the past.

This time, Brayden's target was likely Sprague as well.

But unexpectedly, Sprague was in the bathroom at the time.

So Brayden's people took another patient's child, mistaking him for Kerri's child.

What a big mix-up.

"I got it, Kerri." Devin said.

After Devin left, Kerri hurriedly said, "Agnes, don't worry. It's Brayden who took the child. He thought it was Sprague. I'll call him right now and ask him to return the child." Agnes looked a bit upset, "Is Brayden in the Capital now?"

Kerri nodded.

"Jared is there too." Agnes voiced her concern.

Kerri seemed to understand Agnes' worry right away.

Kerri also got anxious, "There shouldn't be any coincidence, right?"

Agnes always had a bad feeling in her heart.

But she didn't need to worry too much. She knew Brayden's character.

If he realizes the child is not the right one, he will definitely return him.

Besides, Brayden didn't know Nocturne was Agnes' child, so he might not even meet Jared.

The likelihood of this was slim.

But Agnes was still a bit uneasy.

Kerri directly made a call.

But no one answered.

Kerri also started to get anxious, "He's not answering."

Kerri was in a rush, "He's been untraceable these days. I don't know where he is. But Agnes, don't worry. Nothing will happen to Nocturne. I will replace Nocturne as soon as possible." Nocturne was with Brayden, so Agnes didn't need to worry too much about Nocturne's safety.

And she had Nocturne's location.

But Agnes was still very worried.

Agnes took out her phone and started to replace Nocturne's location...

Paradise Bar, private room

Two men were sitting on the couch drinking.

Brayden raised his bottle and clinked it with Jared's, "We're two peas in a pod, ain't we? Women, there ain't a good one out there. They're all heartless. No matter how good you are to them, they still think you're imprisoning them, humiliating them, and then they vanish. They're so ungrateful."

Brayden was obviously drunk.

He threw back his head and took another swig.

Jared didn't drink.

He sat there in silence, his face dark.

He seemed to be trapped in his own emotions, unable to break free.

Brayden, on the other hand, was the opposite. He kept talking, his voice the only sound in the room.

Brayden talked for a long time, but Jared didn't react.

He moved to sit next to Jared, put a hand on Jared's shoulder, "Jared, we friends don't get to see each other often. Today, I want to show you my treasure. That heartless woman says she has nothing to do with me, what a joke! Could she have done it without me? No way! I have half the rights, buddy. I did something important today..."

Brayden took another sip of his drink.

Jared finally lifted his head, "What treasure?"
