Heartstrings On Fire

Chapter 20

Suddenly, all eyes were on Agnes. She wasn’t sure what Jenny was up to, but she was sure that Jenny had a goal in mind. Before Agnes could say anything, Jenny continued, “Seems like Agnes and Mr. Whitfield are more than just friends, eh?” Jenny purposely made her statement sound vague, causing everyone to look at Agnes with a strange look in their eyes. Lily asked, “Agnes, do you know Jared?”

Everyone knew Agnes‘ family background – her father was a media mogul. Therefore, it wasn’t completely out of the question for someone of Agnes‘ social standing to know someone important like Jared.

Agnes glanced at Jenny and said, “I did meet Jared during my internship with the Tim Group over the winter break, but he’s super busy all the time. I don’t think he’ll agree to an interview”

Everyone else was thinking along the same lines as Agnes, but Jenny was still persistent.

Jenny said, “How will we know if we don’t give it a shot? Since we’ve got this chance, why not take a stab at it? I propose I do the first special interview. With Agnes‘ help, I believe we can pull it off.”
