Chapter 437


    Kerri’s gaze was flitting between the two of them.


    Although they both seemed calm, the atmosphere in the room was as chilly as an ice cer.


    Kerri coughed, “Well, I’m gonna leave.”


    Then immediately turned around and walked away. Agnes remained cool, acting as if Jared didn’t exist.


    She turned around and started to pack up her things. Jared walked over, cing a lunch box on the


    table.


    “Valeria is my sister’s business partner. She didn’te here looking for me. Don’t get the wrong


    idea,” he said to Agnes’s retreating back.


    Agnes turned around, “I’m not misunderstanding anything, because frankly, I don’t care, Jared.


    Whether you end up with Valeria or anyone else in the future, I don’t care. I only hope that you and I


    can clearly end our rtionship before you start a new rtionship, without dragging things out.”


    Lately, Agnes had been giving Jared the cold shoulder.


    She spoke her mind without any sugarcoating.


    At first, Jared would get mad.


    But now, Agnes got the feeling that he had grown used to her icy demeanor,


    It was as though he had learned to filter out any words he didn’t want to hear.


    Jared didn’t argue with Agnes, instead, he opened the lunchbox, “I made Boletus mushroom soup


    today, thought you might like a change.”


    Each time this happened, Agnes would feel a mix of heartache and anger.


    She felt that during this time, she had beenpletely different from her former self. It was as if she


    had turned into a knife, continuously hurting Jared. But his willingnéss to appease her, even going so


    far as to smile it off, made Agnes feel like the knife was stabbing her own heart.


    What was she supposed to do? She felt like she couldn’t hold on any longer.


    Agnes walked over and sat down, taking a sip of the soup.


    For a while now, Jared had been bringing her soup almost every day.


    But Agnes never ate any, and Jared would take it back the next day.


    Despite this, Jared still came every day.


    Today, Agnes drank the soup, and Jared seemed a bit uneasy


    He had a bad feeling about this.


    Sure enough, after a few sips, Agnes said with a heavy heart, “Jared, I’m begging you. Do you find this


    fun? You can’t change me, nor can you change reality. Each time I hurt you, I feel terrible. But why are


    you forcing me to extinguish thest bit of feelings I have for you? So please, let go. It’s also a way out


    for you. You’re the CEO of the Tim Group, and you’re spending your time doing this, speaking to me


    in a low voice, letting me bully you. Don’t you feel wronged?”


    “I don’t!” Jared muttered.

    Agnes looked at him, her face full of disbelief.


    But Jared’s lips curved into a faint smile.


    He leaned in, lightly kissing her lips.


    Before Agnes could react, Jared had already let go.


    “You have some soup on your lips, I helped you wipe it off,” Jared said with a smile.


    In the past, they used to do this all the time.


    But back then, it was just a small pleasure between husband and wife.


    Now, Jared doing this only made Agnes feel more exhausted.


    She had tried every method possible.


    But Jared’s grip was so tight, it made her heart ache.


    Agnes lowered her gaze, “Alright, let’s see how long you can keep this up.”
