Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)
Chapter 616

Jared couldn't wrap his head around why he was so hooked on Summer.

Deep down, he was torn up about the impending goodbye.

Because there was some kind of indescribable bond between them.

Agnes knew she couldn't keep the secret anymore.

She had been bending over backwards to keep Jared in the dark about Nocturne.

But she didn't see it coming when Jared found out like this.

Agnes stopped beating around the bush and said, "Yes, I had a child. But Jared, to call yourself the child's father is a bit of a stretch. You're only the biological father, you just supplied a sperm, what else have you got to do with this child? I don't buy the idea that just supplying a sperm makes you a father."

Agnes dropped these words coldly.

But Jared couldn't take it, he yelled at Agnes, "Agnes, you've done all this! You made me just a biological father, because you tore me away from Summer, and you made me miss his birth and growth, you caused all of this. How can you blame me for being just a biological father? Agnes, don't you see how ridiculous you sound?"

Jared was at boiling point.

Deception, betrayal, shock, all kinds of emotions flooded him like a tsunami.

Looking at Agnes' poker face, he wanted to rip her to shreds.

Agnes watched Jared's meltdown, her heart was also racing, but she had to keep her cool.

Even if Jared knew, it wouldn't change a thing. The worst-case scenario would be a custody battle. Besides, Jared was already engaged, he had a new family, maybe soon he would have his own child.

His current rage was just because of Agnes' deception.

Agnes tried to have a rational chat with Jared, "Jared, we're divorced. I could have chosen not to have Summer, but I didn't have the heart to. I also don't want him to be a link between us in the future. Now, we've both moved on, you don't want to go back to those days filled with fights and resentment, do you? You don't have feelings for Summer, just like before, can we pretend nothing happened?" Jared laughed, but it was a bitter one, "Agnes, Summer is right in front of me, but you want me to act like I don't know him, pretend nothing happened. You are so cruel!"

"I've never acknowledged him as your son! We're divorced!"

"You're the one who wanted a divorce, not me!"

"So what? The fact is we're divorced, we're now two strangers with no connection. Summer is my son, he's been living with me since he was a baby, he has nothing to do with you!"

Jared yelled back furiously, "But my blood is running in his veins. I won't let Summer wander abroad. I missed his growing up, but from now on, he has to be with me every single day!" Agnes started to feel real fear, "Jared, what the hell are you trying to do? Don't even think about taking him away from me!"
