Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 295

Mamie was waiting for Agnes in her lounge room, obviously.

Agnes put down her handbag and said, “Is there anything you want from me?”

“Agnes, I still want to apologize to you.”

“You’re here to apologize on behalf of your brother, right? Let the past be the past”

Mamie seemed to be in a complicated mood, “I now finally get why Jared is so into you. Your tolerance

is really something not everyone has.”

Agnes chuckled, “Actually, I can be quite petty too. I just let you guys owe me a favor intentionally, in

case I need something from you down the line.”

Mamie also laughed, “No worries, I’ve already figured it out over the past few days. Jared has never

actually loved me. Seeing his attitude towards you, that’s when I realized he only treats me like a

brother treats his sister, and you and him, you’re the real deal. Do you know what? Even though we’ve

been together for years in name, he’s never been jealous for me”

Agnes sat quietly, listening to her story.

A hint of helplessness showed on the corners of Mamie’s mouth, “I know it in my heart, but I just can’t

bring myself to let go. Do you know why I like Jared? When I was five, I was pushed from the top of a

villa and fell into a swimming pool. I almost drowned. It was Jared who saved me. Actually, I was

unconscious at the time I couldn’t see his face clearly, only remembering the feeling of drowning. I

remember grabbing his collar, like grabbing a lifesaver. When people are desperate, they form

excessive dependence. He is my hero, so I’ve always loved him.”

Agnes suddenly frowned. There’s something I probably should tell you.”

Mamie paused, “What’s that?”

“About your drowning incident when you were five. I later asked Jared, and what he said seemed to be

a bit different from what you remember.”

Mamie’s face changed, “What did you say?”

“Jared said, the one who saved you from the water wasn’t him, but your brother. He was a step too

late. When he arrived. He saw Ivan trying to resuscitate you like crazy. You were underwater for four

minutes. Your brother thought you couldn’t be saved, and almost went crazy.”

Mamie was stunned.

How could this be possible? Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Mamie, incredulous, said, “But my brother can’t swim.”

“Jared said, he also didn’t know how Ivan got you out. He definitely couldn’t swim then, but he was

soaked to the bone. Who else could it be?”

Mamie seemed to be greatly shocked.

For all these years, in her memory, that shadowy teenager was always Jared

Mamie muttered to herself, “But when I opened my eyes back then, the first person I saw was Jared.”

Agnes sighed, “That’s because Ivan, seeing you regain consciousness, couldn’t control himself and ran

into the yard crying. He thought he had lost you.”

Mamie was completely stunned, as if enchanted. How could this be? For so many years, Jared had

always been her superhero.

Because of this, she could never convince herself to give up chasing him.

Even though she was only five then, but up until now, she still remembered the feeling of drowning

vividly. Every time she thought of that moment, she still felt the deep despair and fear

Rather than saying she loved Jared, it’s more accurate to say that she saw him as a life-saving

support.

But she had mistaken the person. Her superhero was actually Ivan, her brother who had always been

protecting her with his life.
