Chapter 125 Psychological Appraisal
About half an hour later, Ben arrived.
Jared opened the door, “Come in.”
After speaking, he turned around and walked into the living room.
Ben looked at Jared’s back, feeling speechless.
If he remembered correctly, this was Miss Reed’s home.
Why was Mr. Farrell the one who opened the door? Besides, Mr. Farrell acted like he was the host here.
Although he thought so, he didn’t dare to ask any more. He went in.
“Where’s the clothes?” Jared looked at him.
Ben handed over one of the bags in his hand, “Here.”
Jared took it and changed it directly in the living room.
Ben showed the other bag, “Mr. Farrell, the breakfast…”
“Put it on the table.” Jared replied, buttoning his shirt.
Ben responded and put the bag on the table.
Afterwards, Jared pointed at the coffee table again, “Pack up the medicines and take them away.”
“Yes.” Ben nodded.
After that, they two left.
Before leaving, Jared threw an extra glance at the door of Amber’s room, his gaze unfathomable.
Not long after they two left, the bedroom door was opened. Amber yawned and came out. Seeing the neatly folded quilt on the sofa, she was surprised for a moment.
Where was he?
Amber looked around, but she didn’t see Jared. She only found that the medicines on the coffee table were gone. It should be him who had taken them away. Besides, there was an extra bag on the table.
Amber walked over curiously, opened the bag, and found that it was breakfast.
So, this was for her?
Amber raised an eyebrow.
But she didn’t refuse. After ali, she wouldn’t suffer any loss if she ate it.
her.
After breakfast, Amber changed her clothes, picked up her newly bought bag and went out.
When she came to the company and just met Cole, her phone rang. The person from the police station called
“Miss Reed?”
“It’s me.” Amber nodded.
The person from the police station said, “I’m sorry, Miss Reed. The case about Miss Gardner pushing you.
downstairs, it has to be closed ahead of schedule.”
“What!?” Amber stood up abruptly, looking shocked.
Cole was taken aback by her and blinked at her, “What’s the matter, baby?”
Amber ignored him, pursed her lips and asked, “Why did you close the case ahead of time? I haven’t found my
bag yet, and I haven’t handed in the evidence yet, so why is the case going to be closed?”
“Miss Reed, please calm down first. I understand your feelings, but this matter can only be closed, because Miss
Gardner’s parents and her fiancé both issued Miss Gardner’s psychological appraisal.”
“Psychological appraisal?” Amber narrowed her eyes.
The police officer nodded, “Yes, the appraisal report says that Miss Gardner suffers from a serious mental illness.
Our country’s laws do not yet contain measurement of penalty for psychos, so…”
“So you mean that psychopaths don’t break the law?” Amber clenched the phone tightly and asked loudly.
The police officer responded with a sigh, “Um…Yes, so this case can only be closed like this. As for your bag, we
are still investigating it, but there are no clues so far. So it is very likely that we will not be able to find it. Sorry, Miss
Reed.”
The call ended.
Amber bit her lip and put down her phone with a face full of reluctance. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Cole looked at her, feeling a little worried. He asked again, “What’s the matter, baby?”
Amber told him the content of the phone call.
After listening to this, Cole thumped the table angrily, “Damn it, so shameless! They took advantage of the loophole in the law!”
“Yeah, I didn’t expect them to have this trick.” Amber rubbed her eyebrows wearily.
No wonder Jared did not forcibly stop her from calling the police.
It turned out that whether she called the police or not, he had a way to protect Makenna. She underestimated
“No, I have to go to Jared!” With that said, Cole was about to go out.
Amber stopped him, “Stop! It’s useless even if you go to him. We can’t beat him.”
When Cole heard this, he suddenly stopped. His entire back was bent, and his whole body exuded a decadent
aura.
After a while, he clenched his fists and turned around, “Baby, does Makenna really have split personalities?”
Amber’s eyes flashed, “I don’t know. Elias Lansdale gave Makenna such a diagnosis. You know Elias. It shouldn’t be fake, but I still don’t believe it. However, I dare not draw a conclusion.”
Cole took a deep breath, “Then if Makenna really has split personalities, with her malice towards you, I believe that she will definitely take action against you in the future. But that’s not breaking the law, is it?”
Amber sneered, “Yes, because she is a mental patient.”
“Hm. A psychopath should be locked in an asylum instead of being allowed to run around out there.” Cole
pouted.
Amber rolled her eyes at him, “Do you think Jared will be willing to let Makenna go to that kind of place?”
Cole was speechless again..
Amber was also silent.
After a while, Cole looked up at her, with undisguised fear in his voice, “Baby, do we really just let her go like this? I
don’t want to give up. You almost…”
He didn’t say anything after that. Amber knew what he meant.
Amber squinted her beautiful eyes, “Of course not. Makenna wants to kill me. How could I just forget it? Let’s wait
and see. I will take revenge on her in the future. Don’t worry. I’m not the kind of person who will hold it back when I
get wronged.”
Cole was satisfied, “That’s good. No matter what you do, I will stand behind you.”
He looked at her tenderly.
Amber was in a trance.
It was the first time she saw him look so serious.
“Okay.” Amber smiled and nodded.
At this moment, the door of the office was knocked.
Amber looked over, “Come in.”
Sheila pushed open the door and came in. She first glanced at Cole, and then reported to Amber, “Miss Reed, the heads of several subsidiaries of the Farrell Group have come and said they want to work with us.”
“The Farrell Group?” Cole frowned.
“Yes.” Sheila nodded.
“Which subsidiaries?” Amber asked.
Sheila answered one by one.
Amber taunted, “It’s actually them. It’s kind of Jared’s compensation to me, so he knew that it was wrong to
protect Makenna.”
Cole was so angry that he blushed, “Who wants his compensation? Go and drive those people away.”
He instructed Sheila.
Before Sheila responded, Amber said, “No need.”
“Baby, you want to accept it?” Cole looked at her in disbelief.
Amber turned the pen in her hand, “Why not? The industries of his subsidiaries are exactly the industries that
Goldstone engaged in. It is naturally the best to work with them.”
“But…” Cole still felt a little uncomfortable.
Amber looked at him seriously, “Cole, I know what you want to say. But think about Goldstone. Why can’t many
previous industries be recovered? One reason is that we have no capital. The other is that we have no similar
partners of the industry. Now, these partners of the same industry have come to the door. Why don’t we take advantage of them?”
Cole didn’t refute.
Amber added, “No matter what Jared did for doing this, but this time he is helping us. Goldstone needs the
partnership in order to develop better. Don’t worry. It doesn’t mean that I will let go of my grudge.”
