Agnes didn’t utter a single word the whole time, but she was very sad.
Jared was planning to move out. She felt like he was convinced she and Ryder were having a secret
affair
After dinner, Agnes didn’t want to stay in her room.
She was feeling way too suffocated
So, she went out to the yard
There was a marble bench in the yard.
Agnes sat down, stanng blankly at the night sky.
Oscar came over and nudged Agnes’s ankle with his nose.
Agnes looked down, giving Oscar’s fluffy head a pat
“What’s up?”
Agnes had no idea how long she’d been sitting there
Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind her.
Agnes turned her head and it was Ryder.
Agnes suddenly stood up.
For some reason, she was feeling a little nervous.
Probably because she knew Jared had misinterpreted their relationship, Agnes was feeling a bit
uncomfortable. Agnes gave a small smile: “Nothing, just hanging out with Oscar
Ryder also came over, squatted down, patted Oscar, and asked, “I was asking about you and Jared,
what’s up?” Agnes didn’t expect Ryder to ask that
Agnes tried to sound as normal as possible: We’re fine, why do you ask?”
“I can tell, he’s not in a good mood”
Actually, Jared was acting no different from usual, Agnes had no idea how Ryder noticed.
But she would definitely not tell Ryder about Jared misunderstanding their relationship.
That would be way too awkward.
Agnes tried to change the subject: “You seem to know him pretty well.”
Ryder was silent for a moment: ‘I’ve always looked up to him since I was a kid, he’s amazing, able to
support the Tim Group since he was 17. He’s a genius, but I’m not. No matter how hard I try, I can’t
catch up to him. Tim and Alyssa always only have eyes for him.”
Agnes was surprised
Such a cold person would actually say something like that.
At Lakeside College, he was seen as a genius by others, the best student in the medical school.
Why would he think like that?
Agnes suddenly felt that Ryder had been living in Jared’s shadow since he was a child, and the
psychological pressure must be great.
“Actually, you don’t have to compare yourself to him. You’re you, not anyone else. Why do you have to
compare yourself to him?”
“Because I don’t want my mom to always only say good night to him, remind him to eat on time, pack
his luggage, bring him gifts, always only have eyes for him.” When Ryder said this, there was no
jealousy, but a deep sense of sadness and helplessness.
Agnes didn’t know what to say for a moment.
The two just sat in silence, with Oscar sniffing around their feet.
“Ryder” a cold voice came from behind.
Agnes and Ryder both turned around.
Jared came over, holding a gift box in his hand, handed it to Ryder: “This is a gift for you.”
Every time he came back from a business trip, Jared would bring him a gift.
Ryder opened the gift box, inside was a car key.
Jared explained, “You’re about to graduate, I thought you might need a car. This car was ordered
overseas, it can be delivered to the house in a month. It’s just a regular car, because you’re about to
start your internship at the hospital, and the luxury cars we have at home are too conspicuous. I hope
your first luxury car is bough: with your own salary”
The Whitfield family’s underground garage was filled with many cars, but they were all very expensive
luxury cars
Ryder said, “Thank you.”
Jared was silent for a moment, and then said, “Actually, Agnes helped me choose this gift. If it wasn’t
for her, I might not have thought of it. You should thank her.”
