Chapter 242
This place is a lounge after all, folks might pop in anytime.
And naturally, Jared wouldn’t do anything too out of line.
He cracked a joke to his wife, then left the lounge with a satisfied smirk.
Agnes, pouting like a goldfish, followed him out.
Outside, the scene was still lively, people were toasting and having a good time.
Suddenly, Jared stopped in his tracks, turned around, one hand behind him and the other extended out
in a classic invitation-to-dance pose, looking utterly gentlemanly and charming.
Agnes was momentarily stunned, then asked, “What are you doing?”
“May I have this dance?” Jared’s voice was deep, dripping with allure.
Agnes placed her hand in his palm, like a proud little swan, “Td be delighted.”
Together, they stepped onto the dance floor.

Until that moment, Agnes had never danced with Jared. The experience was entirely different from
anything she had felt before.
When they danced together, she noticed how Jared’s palm was dry and warm, and they were so close
that she could catch the scent of his freshness.
His eyes, usually reserved in showing emotion, now seemed filled with an intensity that made him
captivating, especially with the chandelier above casting a golden halo around him.
Agnes couldn’t tear her eyes away from Jared, as he seemed to glow, utterly enchanting her. The world
around them faded into the background, and they locked eyes for a brief moment before Jared lowered
his head, and their lips met in a kiss
As they waltzed, the onlookers couldn’t help but react with surprised cheers and wolf whistles.
The dancing crowd came to a halt, and all eyes were on Agnes and Jared. Normally, being the center
of attention would make Agnes uncomfortable, but tonight was different. She was lost in the magical
atmosphere, and everything else seemed to disappear, leaving only Jared and his captivating glow
Agnes thought of a saying. “He’s like a rainbow, only when you encounter him do you realize how
extraordinary he is.”
The applause and cheers continued.
Mostly, it was the envious whispers of women.
“Mr. Whitfield and Ms. Pritchard are a perfect match, like a real-life Prince and Princess.”
“Yeah, Ms. Pritchard is so lucky. She’s not the most beautiful, nor does she come from the best family,
but she won Mr. Whitfield’s affection.”
“Beatrice, your sister married Mr. Whitfield, you’ll surely benefit. Mr. Whitfield has so many great people
around him, have him introduce you to someone, you could have a good marriage too”
Beatrice, seeing all this, was so angry she was lost for words
She said indignantly, “Let’s see how long their love lasts.”

With that, she stormed off.
By the time Agnes and Jared returned, it was already late.
Once in the car, Agnes realized how hungry she was.
She had barely eaten anything all night.
Jared said, “There’s food in the back seat.”
Agnes turned around and almost screamed, “When did you get this birthday cake?”
Agnes quickly took it, then opened it up..
The cake was small, but very delicate and cute.
Agnes immediately picked up a spoon and started eating.
Jared frowned, “You haven’t made a wish yet.”
“I forgot”
With that, Agnes placed the cake on her lap, put her hands together, closed her eyes, and made a wish
“What did you wish for?” Jared asked
