Chapter 387 Jared’s Lie
“Let’s go to your lounge first.” Amber waved her hand, indicating for him to calm down first.
Seeing that people were already beginning to look their way, Jeremy could only suppress the hostility in his heart and nod. “Alright, I’ll lead the way.”
He led Amber and Stella to the lounge.
As soon as the door closed, he eagerly asked Amber to tell him how she had gone blind.
Amber did not hide anything from him and told him everything.
Jeremy narrowed his eyes like a predator ready to hunt.
Judy Lashley, right?
He had noted down the name!
“Amber, will your eyes really heal?” Jeremy reached out and gently touched Amber’s eyes.
“Of course, but I don’t know exactly when.”
Therefore, she planned to hand over everything related to Goldstone Co. to Cole.
“Alright, Jere, let’s not talk about this anymore. Anyway, Cole is already watching Judy Lashley. I’ll deal with her when I go back. Let’s talk about you. There is still a show tomorrow, right?” Amber asked.
Jeremy knew that she did not want to talk about Judy anymore, so he replied, “Yes, there’s still one more runway show in the daytime.”
“Then I might not be able to make it.” Amber sighed regretfully.
“Why? Amber, are you going back tomorrow morning?” Jeremy’s face fell.
“No, I’ill return the day after tomorrow, in the morning. But I have something to do tomorrow.” Amber said with a complicated expression.
She wanted to find out if she had really been accidentally swapped at birth then swapped back.
“What is it?” Jeremy asked.
“It’s a secret.” Amber said with a smile.
Seeing that she was unwilling to tell him, Jeremy’s face clearly turned gloomier.
“Alright, Jere, don’t be angry. This is a private matter. I haven’t even figured it out myself, so it’s not good for me to tell others. When I figure it out, I’ll tell you.”
Only then did Jeremy feel happy.
Amber turned around and said to Stella, “Stella, I want to go to the bathroom. Take me there.”
“Okay.” Stella put down her juice, helped Amber up, and helped her to the bathroom.
Soon, Stella came out on her own and walked over to Jeremy. She crossed her arms and said, “Hey, have you thought it through?”
“What do you mean?” Jeremy’s eyes darkened as he asked.
“You know what I’m asking, but since you’re pretending that you don’t understand, I might as well tell you again. Of course, I’m talking about the matter of you returning to the Rylands family.” Stella said with a smile.
“I’m not going back!” Jeremy pursed his lips.
“Really?” The smile on Stella’s face immediately faded away. “Jeremy, I already told you very clearly last time. If you don’t return to the Rylands family, you’ll lose everything given by the Rylands family. Are you willing to let what should’ve been rightfully yours, fall into the hands of those illegitimate children? Don’t forget, your grandfather is the reason why the Rylands family is so powerful now. Do you really want your grandfather’s efforts to go down the drain?”
“…” Jeremy’s pupils shrank and he clenched his fists tightly.
Stella looked at him and her expression returned to normal. “It seems that you don’t want that, so go back. In addition, there is another important thing that I want to tell you. According to the news from my father, the Fourth Young Master has come to Olkmore, but I haven’t found out where he is hiding yet. He must have come for you, so be careful.”
“Stella.” As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Amber call her again.
Stella responded and turned to go to the bathroom.
Jeremy looked down at the ground, thinking hard.
In the early hours of the morning, Amber and Stella bid farewell to Jeremy and returned to the hotel.
Jeremy did not stay in the hotel. The models had a fixed residence and there was a model meeting later, so there was no way for him to see Amber off.
Fortunately, with Stella by Amber’s side, he was more at ease.
Thinking of Stella’s terrifying strength and the tough memory of when she had used it against him, Jeremy felt a surge of fear in his heart.
Back at the hotel, Stella pushed Amber towards the elevator. Just as they reached the elevator door, they saw two people walking over from the left. Stella said in surprise, “Ms. Reed, Mr. Farrell is actually here too.”
“Jared?” Amber frowned.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Yes!” Stella grunted.
As soon as she finished speaking, Jared had already walked over to the two of them. He looked at Amber in the wheelchair and said in a gentle voice, “What a coincidence. You’re here as well?”
Behind him, Ben secretly rolled his eyes.
Coincidence?
It was Mr. Farrell who had followed Ms. Reed here!
Of course, Ben couldn’t say anything even if he wanted to.
However, judging by Ms. Reed’s expression, she obviously did not believe Mr. Farrell’s words either.
“Is it really a coincidence? I never heard that you were coming to South Riverside.” Amber raised her eyebrows.
“I decided to come at the last minute. Something happened at the branch here, so I came over to deal with it.” Jared’s eyes flashed.
Ben rolled his eyes again.
This was the first time he had heard a boss wish bad luck on his own company.
“Is that so?” Amber couldn’t see him and didn’t know whether what Jared said was true or not. She nodded slightly and didn’t speak.
The four of them stood quietly at the elevator doors, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
After a while, Jared took the initiative to break this strange silence. He opened his thin lips and said, “I heard from Elias that the portrait of the attacker was finished. It is Judy Lashley.”
Amber nodded.
“Did you tell Hayden about this?” Jared looked at her and asked.
They found Judy together and both wanted to deal with that woman.
Hayden should also have a share.
“Not yet.” Amber shook her head. “Let’s talk about it when I get back.”
“When are you going back?” Jared’s thin lips moved as he asked casually.
Amber said lightly, “I don’t know for now. If you want to go back, you can go back at any time.”
Jared could tell that Amber was being intentionally curt to him, keeping him at a distance. She did not want to tell him her plans. A trace of sadness appeared in his heart and he did not ask again.
The air became quiet again.
Even when the elevator arrived, no one spoke when the four people entered the elevator. The silence weighed on everyone heavily.
When the elevator reached their floor, Amber was pushed out by Stella. When she heard the footsteps behind her, she asked in surprise, “You’re also staying on this floor?”
This was the business suite floor.
He should be staying in the presidential suite, right?
Jared knew what Amber was thinking and said without changing his expression, “The presidential suite was booked.”
Amber snorted.
Sure it was!
Although this hotel was not controlled by the Farrell family, it had ties with them. The hotel owner had his own room in every branch hotels. If the hotel owner knew that Jared was here, he would naturally give Jared that room.
Therefore, it was simply an excuse and an obvious lie.
At this moment, Amber was sure that he had followed her here.
“Stella, let’s go.” Amber couldn’t be bothered to pay Jared any more attention. She patted the armrest of her wheelchair to signal for Stella to push her away.
Stella looked at Jared with a faint smile and pushed Amber forward.
Jared did not continue to follow them. Instead, he stood there and watched them retreat. His thin lips pursed.
“Mr. Farrell, Ms. Reed seems to be angry.” Ben stroked his chin.
Jared lowered his eyes and said lightly, “Because she knows that I’m lying to her.”
“If you ask me, Mr. Farrell, your acting is really not good.” Ben chuckled.
