Chapter 764


    Ynda''s fingers were gripping the steering wheel with a vice-like intensity.


    Could it be that the two of them had rekindled their old me?


    Yet, as hard as she tried, Ynda couldn''t bring herself to believe it.


    If they had, surely the media would be buzzing with the news.


    After all, Jared''s fiancée was Valeria. Had it not been for that that actress'' conniving schemes, they


    would have already been engaged.


    Valeria, a top-tier manager at the Thomas Group, was miles above Agnes in terms of status and


    capability.


    Ynda mulled over the idea, but still couldn''t see Agnes and Jared getting back together.


    In her mind, Mrs. Whitfield''s ce was still reserved for Valeria.


    It must have been a fleeting spark of interest, seeing his ex-wife from four years ago still as beautiful as


    ever.


    Even if Agnes regretted exposing the Whitfield family''s scandal and wished to climb the socialdder,


    the Whitfield family wouldn’t allow her to.


    Despite her logical reasoning, Ynda''s heart was seething with anger at the thought of them leaving


    together. She refused to believe that after four years, she could lose to Agnes.


    The next day at work, Agnes noticed people were giving her strange looks, but she was clueless about


    what had transpired.


    Whilst grabbing a cup of coffee, she decided to probe Ramona for some answers.


    Hesitant, Ramona divulged, "The office is buzzing with rumors about you and Mr. Whitfield, Agnes. I''d


    advise you to tread carefully. Mr. Whitfield may be young and sessful, but he''s also a notorious


    yboy. His love life is a carousel of actresses and socialites, not a game wemon folks can afford


    to y."


    Ramona''s advice was sincere.


    Amused, Agnes responded, "Why would there be such rumors in the office?"


    After a moment''s hesitation, Ramona leaned in and whispered, "The Director mentioned it. She said


    she saw you get into Mr. Whitfield''s carst night."


    With aplex expression, Ramona asked, "Agnes, is it true?"


    Agnes,pletely nonchnt,ughed, "Of course it''s true."


    Ramona looked taken aback, not expecting Agnes to admit it so readily.


    Agnes rified, "Mr. Whitfield''s driver was there to pick him upst night, and he offered me a lift home.


    That''s just him being a gentleman."


    Considering her words, Ramona scratched her head, "Yeah, I suppose there''s nothing wrong with that."


    Agnes continued, "Mr. Whitfield and I had a 40-minute discussion about the promo videost night


    before leaving. Didn''t the Director leave much earlier with the rest of you? How could she have seen


    me get into Mr. Whitfield''s car? Unless she was waiting outside for 40 minutes."


    With a gossipy tone, Agnes queried, "What was the Director doing waiting outside for so long? Was


    she waiting for Mr. Whitfield?"


    At the hint of gossip, Ramona''s face lit up.


    The rumors spread like wildfire through the office.


    Amidst the storm, Agnes remained calm and collected.


    By the end of the day, everyone knew that Mr. Whitfield was merely being a gentleman by offering


    Agnes a ride home.


    Instead, the rumors now revolved around Ynda and Jared''s supposed affair.


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    Some said Ynda had unrequited feelings for Jared four years ago, and was personally kicked out of


    the Tim Group by him.


    Others said Director Bowman was spotted waiting outside for Mr. Whitfield, her intentions clear. But


    most believed that Director Bowman, jealous of Agnes stealing the promo nning, had purposefully


    ndered her and tried to ruin her reputation.


    After all, Ynda''s reputation at the office had always been less than favorable.


    Her previous unjust treatment of Agnes had not gone unnoticed by her colleagues.
