Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 628

Alyssa was gobsmacked.

She couldn't believe that such a little kid could be suffering from such a rare disease.

No wonder Nocturne seemed always asleep, even when they got him out of the car earlier. As if he

could never really wake up.

But what Alyssa found even more unbelievable was that Ryder had been treating him for three years...

Alyssa asked, "Do you know whose child he is?"

"I'm crystal clear about that," Ryder replied calmly.

Alyssa stepped back, leaning on a nearby wardrobe, "How could you keep this a secret for so long,

especially when you knew about his connection with Jared?"

Ryder said, "Mom, what happened, happened. Jared and Agnes are divorced now, and they have

nothing to do with each other."

Alyssa smirked, "Nothing to do with each other? And Jared is talking about remarrying with Agnes with

your grandpa?"

"Remarry?" Hearing this, Ryder's face change in an instant.

Then he turned around and left the room.

Seeing Ryder's reaction, Alyssa felt like she had been plunged into an ice cellar.

What the heck? Why is this happening? This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Things were way more serious than she had anticipated.

Why was Ryder involved again?

And he knew all along that Nocturne was Agnes and Jared's child, but he kept it under wraps for three

years.

No one knew Ryder's thoughts better than Alyssa.

Over the years, he must have been in touch with Agnes.

Didn't Agnes hate the Whitfield family?

She had no idea what their relationship was now.

If Jared found out about all this, he would absolutely flip out...

She thought she had avoided all the problems, that all the disputes had passed with time.

But little did she know, the problems had started to emerge a few years ago.

Now it has spiraled out of control.

Turns out, nothing was over, everything was just beginning...

After leaving the bedroom, Ryder went straight to his study.

He had just returned from an international conference.

Because of this conference, he didn't even attend Jared's engagement party.

But, Christmas was in a couple of days.

And Christmas was Summer's birthday, so he had rushed back home for that.

Little did he know that he would return to a storm of news.

He only then found out about all the things that had happened.

Jared leaving his own engagement party halfway, never to return.

Sharon trying to kill herself over Jared, Jared rushing to her bedside.

More importantly, Jared suddenly having a son, with photographic evidence.

The child in the photo was Nocturne. Ryder knew then that the secret was exposed.

He rushed back home, only to find Nocturne in the Whitfield family's house.

In the study.

Tim, Jared, Agnes, all three were at loggerheads over the remarriage.

Agnes disagreed with the remarriage, Tim was against it, but Jared was adamant.

The atmosphere was tense, to say the least.

Agnes thought Jared was doing it for Nocturne, and Tim thought it was all Agnes' scheme.

As for Jared himself, only he knew he was doing it out of selfishness.

Ryder barged into the room without knocking.

All three of them turned to look at him.

Seeing Ryder stride in, they were all visibly surprised.

But Ryder marched straight to Agnes, took her hand, and said to his grandpa, "I hope you'll agree to

my marriage with Agnes."
