Chapter 258
At this point, a staff member chimed in, “Mr. Whitfield, Ms. Pritchard, let’s get this show on the road.”
Agnes and Jared took their seats.
Today’s interview was a bit out of the ordinary, less of a formal interview and more of a casual chitchat. Even the seating arrangement was a cozy
loveseat.
The host sat off to the side, turned to the camera and began, “Hey folks, today we’ve got the pleasure of hanging out with Ms. Pritchard and Mr. Whitfield, who are quite the power couple. Mr. Whitfield, you splurged on a super pricey ruby necklace as a Christmas present for Ms. Pritchard a couple of weeks ago. Ms. Pritchard, how did you feel when you got such an extravagant gift?”
Upon hearing the host mention the Kingdom Heart, Agnes felt a pang in her heart.
But she was on live TV, so she had to put on a happy face, “The gift was indeed extraordinary, and I was utterly surprised.”
The host turned to Jared, “Mr. Whitfield, why did you decide to go all out with such an extravagant necklace? Does this gift carry any special meaning?” Jared responded coolly, “Nothing particularly meaningful. I just thought it would look beautiful on my wife.”
Agnes shot Jared a glance.
That man was always so casual when he lied.
The host’s voice was filled with envy. “We’ve all heard that Mr. Whitfield absolutely dotes on his wife, and it’s clear to see that today. What was the scene like when Mr. Whitfield and Ms. Pritchard first met? Any fun stories to share?”
At this, a blush crept up Agnes‘ cheeks.
Their first meeting was not something she wanted to share in public.
Jared chimed in, “I fell for my wife at first sight. The moment we met, I was totally smitten.
Jared seemed casual, but when he said ‘smitten” he glanced at Agnes.
Agnes could clearly see a hint of provocation in his expression.
Agnes immediately understood what he meant by “smitten“.
Usually, Jared loved to joke that she ‘raped” him at their first meeting.
Now, he was implying the same!
Agnes felt her face and ears turn red.
The host seemed to pick up on the detail, “Is Ms. Pritchard blushing? It seems like your first meeting must’ve been quite a hoot.”
The host went on with more questions, most of which were answered by Jared.
He spoke at a leisurely pace, each response brimming with wit and wisdom. Agnes felt as if she didn’t recognize him.
Usually, he didn’t talk much, but that could be the result of years of business experience.
As a top businessman, he definitely knew how to put on a show.
The interview went super smoothly. The host was completely smitten by Jared’s charm and even admitted that she wished she could find a boyfriend
like him.
At the end of the show, the host asked, “Mr. Whitfield, is there anything you’d like to say to Mrs. Whitfield?”
Jared turned to Agnes, looked into her eyes, and said earnestly, “Darling, I’m sorry. There have been times when I haven’t considered your feelings, but that doesn’t mean I don’t trust you. You’re the closest person to me in this world, and even if everyone else didn’t believe in you, I wouldn’t hesitate. Where there’s light, there’s shadow, but I want you to remain pure and beautiful always, and I’m willing to shield you from all the shadows. I just want you to be happy. If I’ve hurt you in any way. I hope you can forgive me, because I truly love you so much.”
