Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)
Chapter 632

Agnes thought she might be really crazy, having such thoughts.

But just now, in the study, when Jared gripped her hand and proposed remarriage,

she actually hesitated for a moment, and began to fantasize about this possibility.

At this moment, Agnes was snapped back to reality by the cold wind.

It's been four years.

A lot had happened in these four years, whether for her or for Jared.

Even if the grudges of the past had been smoothed over, they couldn't go back to what they used to be.

Jared was not the same Jared anymore.

He had a fiancee, close friends.

Whether he was sincere to these people, Agnes was not sure.

But what Agnes did know was that from the day they broke up four years ago, their lives had been like two straight lines, quickly extending in different directions.

There might be a momentary intersection, but they could never overlap.

She really must be out of her mind.

Even so, when Ryder bluntly exposed her, Agnes was still a bit pissed off.

It was as if he had seen through the most embarrassing side of her heart.

Agnes glared at Ryder in anger.

Ryder wasn't pushing her around anymore, his voice had softened, "If you can think like this, I can rest assured. My uncle has changed, especially since he engaged Valeria Thomas. This woman, I'm afraid you can't handle her."

Agnes was still a bit pissed, "You don't have to be so nice, Ryder, and there are some things I want to tell you too."

"I know what you want to say, you're saying that you and I will never happen, right?"

Agnes was stunned.

The words she wanted to say were spoken by Ryder ahead of time, feeling like a lump stuck in her throat.

Agnes was silent for a few seconds, then she said, "Since you know, don't waste your effort anymore. I only have gratitude for you, in my heart, you are just Nocturne's doctor, and our relationship will only stay at doctor and patient's relative. Besides, if Tim strongly opposes me remarrying Jared, do you think he can accept me being with you?"

Agnes understood Ryder's thoughts.

She had said these words more than once.

But there were some things that Agnes still didn't understand.

When they were in Manhattan, there was always a certain distance between her and Ryder.

There seemed to be a clear boundary between them, and no one could cross it.

But after returning to her homeland, Ryder suddenly crossed this boundary.

Compared to Jared, Ryder's actions also caught her off guard.

Ryder said, "Agnes, I've never forced you to be with me. But, the premise is that you can't be with anyone else. That way, I still have hope. I'm not a selfless person, on the contrary, my love for you is selfish. I want to be with you, whether as a lover or a friend, I can wait. But, if you really remarry my uncle, I will have no place to stand. So, I will stop you, even if I need to hurt my uncle." Ryder was very sincere.

Agnes' heart was full of bitterness.

After leaving Jared, Agnes seemed unable to love again.

Ryder probably knew this too, so the only thing he cared about was her relationship with Jared.

In the past few years, Agnes had never thought about falling in love, let alone stepping into the marriage hall.

She planned to live this way for the rest of her life.

As long as Nocturne grew up healthy and recovered soon, like other normal children, Agnes had no other requirements. But Ryder's current situation worried her.

She could choose not to marry for life, but Agnes did not want Ryder to wait for her for life.
