Chapter 777

Jared smiled. “I’m just a businessman, not in the charity game. But I can’t just sit back and do nothing when it’s

concerning you. I do these good deeds. for you, not because I’m inherently kind.”

Agnes leaned in and kissed Jared’s lips. “Mr. Whitfield, could you please do more of these good deeds for my sake?”

Jared rubbed the spot Agnes had kissed, then replied, “Sure, but I expect something in return.”

“What is it?” Agnes asked innocently.

With a mischievous glint in his eye, Jared said, “You’ll find out tonight.”

But the reward Jared was expecting didn’t come that night. Late into the evening, Agnes was tied up in her study,

working on the article. She detailed the story of the Fabians, including their deep connection with stray animals.

By the time Agnes finished, it was two in the morning,

Agnes used her connections at the TV station to post the article directly on the online version of the local news.

After sending it out, she let out a sigh of relief and headed to bed. By this time, Jared was fast asleep.

Agnes tiptoed over to the bed, slid under the covers and lay down.

Just as she did, Jared pulled her close, holding her in his arms.

Agnes looked up at him and asked, “You’re still awake?”

Jared’s voice was heavy with sleep. “I haven’t received my reward yet. I can’t sleep.”

Agnes chuckled. He was barely able to keep his eyes open.

She leaned in and kissed Jared on his lips. “That’s a down payment. You’ll get the rest in installments.”

Jared was very satisfied with her response. “You’ll have to keep paying for a lifetime, or I’ll accuse you of

absconding with the money.”

“Alright. Go to sleep, Agnes whispered.

She snuggled up to Jared, and they both drifted off into a deep sleep.

When Agnes woke up and picked up her phone, she found that her article from the night before had garnered a lot

of attention.

There had been many reports on the Fabians before.

But the public’s image of them was still stuck on that of stubborn squatters and extreme activists.

Surprisingly, Agnes‘ article and a few photos completely changed people’s perception of them.

The photos were taken by Jared.

Agnes had to admit they were of professional quality.

One of them was of Mrs. Fabian, head lowered, feeding Max while wiping away her tears.

Max was an old dog, barely able to move. But Mrs. Fabian held him like her own child, her eyes filled with despair

and sorrow.

That tear genuinely touched everybody’s hearts.

Even Agnes, who felt a pang of sadness whenever she saw the photo, couldn’t shake off the discomfort.

The environment of the house, the kittens and puppies surrounding the old couple, created a powerful impact. It hit

the softest spot in people’s hearts. The comments online were increasing.

In just a few hours, there were already twenty thousand comments.

Numerous people expressed their willingness to adopt the animals, to lessen the burden on the couple.

Others were willing to volunteer to care for these stray cats and dogs.

The image of the Fabians transformed overnight, from obstinate squatters with ulterior motives to the most

beautiful angels on earth.

The article received unprecedented attention.
