Chapter 761


    Reluctantly, Agnes had to sit next to Jared.


    Ynda''s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets at the sight.


    Surprisingly, Jared didn''t react to Agnes'' presence. Could it be that Jared still held a me for his ex-


    wife? That''s what Ynda was thinking.


    Sure, he might still have some residual feelings, but that was only human nature. Things had certainly


    changed between them, or else they wouldn''t have ended up divorced.


    Besides, Jared was notorious for his phndering ways.


    He treated women like ythings, and he was possibly just messing with her.


    Judging by Agnes'' demeanor, she didn''t seem too interested in engaging with Jared. The more


    ufortable Agnes was, the better Ynda felt.


    Who would have thought that Agnes would have such a day?


    During the dinner, the station head and two department heads kept toasting Jared.


    Halfway through, Ynda also stood up, and she approached Jared, asking "Mr. Whitfield, I was an


    intern at the Tim Group. I owe much of my growth to your guidance. This toast is for you."


    Jared responded in a gentlemanly manner, clinking his ss against hers, "Aaron and I are friends, so


    taking care of you is the least I could do, Ms. Bowman."


    Jared''s casual words made Ynda''s heart sour. It seemed like Jared had long forgotten about their


    past. Back then, she had a few quarrels with Agnes in the secretarial department.


    Jared had publicly asked her to resign from the Human Resources Department, just because his wife


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    found her displeasing.


    Ynda had be theughing stock of the entire secretarial department and the Tim Tower, and


    she had never been so humiliated in her life. But now Jared had the audacity to say he took care of


    her? This was his version of care?


    The taste of the half-finished drink was bitter and harsh.


    Even after all these years, she still held a grudge.


    Now that she had a chance to interact with Jared, she was determined to get even. She wanted to


    make Jared regret choosing Agnes over her. She wanted Jared to realize that Agnes was merely a


    pawn under her control. Ynda was the truly talented and charming woman.


    With a smile on her face, Ynda casually brought up the Tim Group''s promotional video, "I''m grateful


    for your trust in our News Department. We will give our best for the Tim Group''s promotional video. I


    will personally supervise the promotional script until you’re satisfied with it, Mr. Whitfield."


    Jared responded with a natural smile, "Director Bowman, you are always busy. It''s not necessary to


    bother you with such small matters. Didn''t you just say Ms. Pritchard was a talented returnee from


    abroad with plenty of experience? I think she can handle the promotional script."


    Ynda was taken aback. She hadn''t expected Jared to entrust the script to Agnes. For a moment,


    Ynda couldn''t figure out what Jared was up to. But since Jared had already said it, she couldn''t


    insist on taking it on herself without seeming too eager, which would also damage her reputation.


    Feigning graciousness, Ynda said, "If Mr. Whitfield has made a choice, we should respect it."


    Then she turned to Agnes, "Agnes, Mr. Whitfield holds you in high regard. You should toast him."


    Agnes sighed inwardly. Ynda already held a grudge against her, and this would only add fuel to the


    fire. What on earth was Jared up to? Was he deliberately making her a target for everyone?
