Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 1033

Phoenix's eyes shimmered with tears as she spoke, revealing a vulnerability that Agnes had only heard about through the grapevine, mostly from Reggie recounting Phoenix's tough background and her roller-coaster relationship with Sean. To most, Phoenix was the social butterfly, effortlessly charming and navigating through various circles with ease. Yet, her dream was surprisingly simple: a quiet life far from the limelight.

Seeing Phoenix so earnestly yearn for this dream, Agnes felt a genuine happiness for her friend.

Approaching Phoenix, Agnes tried to lighten the mood, "Phoenix, you're about to walk down the aisle, no tears now. Trust me, you and Sean are going to have a tranquil and blissful life together."

Holding Agnes's hand tightly, as if a dam ready to burst, Phoenix confessed, "Agnes, I've been having these terrible nightmares. I can't shake off this feeling that something bad is about to happen. I'm terrified for Sean. With his... reputation, every second he's out there, my heart is in my throat. I keep dreaming of him, hurt and bloody. Why does it haunt me so? I really needed you here."

Agnes comforted her, "Phoenix, haven't you heard that dreams often mean the opposite? It's normal to feel anxious when happiness is within grasp. Sean's a tough guy, smart and skilled. He'll be fine."
