Chapter 895


    Agnes couldn''t figure out why he always managed to drag Ryder into the equation.


    What did Ryder have to do with anything?


    Jared was no fool; he had to see it.


    Her disappointment wasn''t about Ryder. It was about Valeria wedging herself between them.


    And the confusion over what exactly their rtionship was. It was like a series of stones had been


    piling up on her back. And just like that, they had crushed her.


    Agnes was exhausted. Even being by Jared''s side did little to ease that weariness.


    "It’s not because of anyone else, but because of you, Jared. Stop trying to shift the me. I can only


    tell you that while you might not be entirely at fault, we''re just not right for each other. I can''t live with


    someone like you. I can''t exist in a rtionship that''s so undefined. We need a break to sort things out


    on our own."


    Agnes felt she had grown a lotpared to ten years ago.


    She could speak to Jared with such calm now, even as they were parting ways.


    But Jared couldn''t understand.


    He blocked her path, desperation in his voice. "You''ve got to be clear with me today, Agnes. We''ve


    with Berlin? Is he worth leaving me over? Just because of one well-intentioned lie? There''s got to be


    more. I don''t believe it, Agnes."


    Agnes was beyond tired, and she didn''t want to argue with Jared any longer.


    "Yes, it''s about that. You see it as trivial, but Jared, don''t forget, my original intent foring back was


    revenge. To me, that''s important. And I have realized that you can''t understand that."


    "I can''t understand you? Who can, Ryder?"


    Agnes found the current Jared beyond reason.


    He managed to link every word she spoke to Ryder.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    That was Jared all over. Whenever he faced something he didn''t want to, he''d me someone else.


    Crafting a narrative of Ryder and her being intimate as an excuse for her disappointment.


    It made it seem like her departure was a betrayal, leaving Jared the victim.


    Always the victim. It was always Agnes who wronged him. But did he ever truly care about what she''d


    been through, the turmoil in her heart, the tidal waves she''d survived?


    Did he ever consider the root cause behind their repeated separations? Jared wouldn''t think about it.


    Now Agnes realized, even without those past events, she and Jared might never have made it to the


    end.


    Exhaustion was etched on Agnes'' face. "Please, Jared, just stop. I can''t do this anymore."


    Jared''s eyes were bloodshot, but he still clutched Agnes'' arm, unwilling to let go.


    As if the moment he did, she would vanish into thin air. Fear gripped him; he was truly afraid.


    Just the other day, Ryder had told him he''d take Agnes away, and now she was saying goodbye in this


    manner.


    Agnes had been missing for days.


    Unable to contain himself, Jared had tracked her location, which led to the Capital.


    What was she doing in the Capital? Coincidentally, Ryder had returned to the Capital during the same


    period.


    Agnes had even been spotted at the Thomas Group headquarters.


    Could it really be a coincidence, or were they together?
