Chapter 254
Agnes Pritchard frowned, “I don’t want to go back.”
Ivan shrugged off his coat and draped it over Agnes’ shoulders, “Whatever’s going on, get in the car first. It’s bloody cold out here.”
It was mid-winter, and the chill was biting.
Agnes was only dressed in an evening gown. Her face was flushed from the cold, but she didn’t feel it at all.
Once in the car, Ivan asked, “Where to?”
Where to?
Agnes felt lost. Where should she go?
Ivan said, “Forget it, let’s grab a bite first.”
Ivan took her to a small diner by the street.
It was tucked away in a nondescript neighborhood that most people would never find, but it had a cozy and quiet atmosphere.

Agnes didn’t have much of an appetite, but she still managed to eat half of a serving of steaming hot potato balls.
After eating, she felt somewhat rejuvenated.
“What the hell happened? Weren’t you at the auction dinner tonight? The necklace you’re wearing, isn’t that Kingdom Heart? I thought it wasn’t up for auction?”
Ivan knew her schedule like the back of his hand, since he was the one who arranged it all.
Agnes was at a loss.
There were things she didn’t want to talk about
After all, Ivan was Mamie’s brother.
Whether Mamie had set her up or not, she didn’t want to stir up trouble between them without proof.
Agnes said, “Don’t ask, I don’t want to talk about it for now”
Ivan poured Agnes a cup of hot milk, “If you don’t want to tell me, that’s fine But you cant just not go home. Jared Whitfield has been looking for you everywhere
He’s beside himself.”
Agnes frowned.
How did he know that Jared was looking for her?

So they had been in touch before Ivan showed up?
Agnes felt a little uneasy.
Sure enough, as soon as Ivan finished speaking, Jared appeared at the door
Agnes was speechless, she just shot Ivan a glare.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIvan chuckled, “I couldn’t just leave you out here, so I called Jared to come get you. Whatever issues you guys have, sort them out.”
With that, he got up, grabbed his car keys and left.
At the door he patted Jared on the shoulder, “Talk it out.”
And with that, Ivan was gone.
Jared stood at the door for a moment, then walked in, expressionless
Agnes averted her eyes, silent.
“Why didn’t you wait for me?” Jared asked in a deep voice.
“Because I was curious about what Mamie had to say to you.”
So, you overheard our conversation in the garden?*
Agnes turned back to look him in the eye, “Yes, I did.”
Jared was silent for a moment, then asked, “if that’s the case, why are you angry? I never doubted that you stole the necklace.”
Agnes retorted sarcastically, “Yeah, because I’m not that capable”
Jared frowned, “You’re angry just because of that?”
Agnes shot back, Jared, if I told you that Mamie put the necklace in my bag to frarerne, would you believe me?”
