Chapter 27 I Have to Teach You a Good Lesson!
"Makenna, what's wrong?" noticing Makenna's look, Shonna asked.
Makenna immediately locked her phone screen and replied softly, "It is nothing. My mother asked me
when I'll be back. I will reply to her."
Shonna did not doubt about her words and turned to talk to Jared.
After making sure that Shonna did not look at her side, Makenna picked up her phone again and read
the WhatsApp messages sent by her friend.
Her friend was also playing cards at Red Plum Club today and said she saw Jared. When she was
about to go say hello, she saw him going after Amber and talking with her for a long while by a car.
She muted the phone and clicked on the video. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
In the video, Jared said something to Amber, and then carried her to the car. Later, he got into the
driver seat of her car and drove away.
The ten-second video sent Makenna a shiver and she clutched the phone tightly.
Didn't they get a divorce?
Why did Jared get into Amber's car, why did he choose to lie to her just now?
Thinking of what happened that night at the banquet party, she felt something wrong. Although Jared
seemed to be on her side, he chose to give Amber the Corazón Azul which was worthy of millions of
dollars. And today's video also showed…
She suddenly felt panicked. Although Jared had divorced Amber, he did not belong to her either.
What was stolen by her, wouldn't belong to her at the end of the day?
…
When Amber woke up in the hotel, it was already the next morning.
She remembered that she caught a cold after getting wet last night. But after waking up, she felt
refreshed.
Soon she recalled that Jared insisted on driving her back home and she could vaguely remember that
somebody fed her something…
Was it Jared?
She tried not to think about those things, washed up quickly and left the hotel.
After getting to the company, she called Sheila and said, "The boss of Wisemas will come to sign the
contract later. You need to prepare the contract first."
The secretary was surprised and asked, "Miss Reed, you have made a deal with Wisemas already,
huh?"
"Mm." Although Amber did not want to admit it, she knew she owed Jared a favor. If he had not come
to the private room yesterday afternoon, Mr. Longman would not have agreed to sign the contract.
"Okay." Sheila nodded her head and quickly went to prepare the contract.
Amber took off her coat and hung it on the rack. When she was about to sit down to deal with the
documents Sheila brought in, the internal phone at the table rang.
She answered it, "Hello?"
"Miss Reed, there is a man called Hayden Cohen who wants to see you." The receptionist asked, "Do
you know him?"
Amber said, "Let him enter."
Soon there came a knock on the office door and the receptionist led a man in.
The man was wearing in a business-casual style, with dark and thick hair where the tip of the hair was
slightly curled. He looked so handsome and dashing that there seemed to be no flaws about his
features.
He glanced around the office casually with his almond eyes, and finally he landed his gaze on Amber.
"Miss Reed, you adapt to changes so quickly." Hayden walked to the desk, pulled out a chair and sat
down, talking to her as if they had been close friends to each other for long, "You've only been in
Goldstone Co. for a few days and now you act like a great leader. Nobody will believe that you were
once a housewife for six years."
"I also did not expect that a flamboyant playboy like you would be the mayor's youngest son," she
retorted instantly.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Miss Reed, I am praising you that you have finally become your true
self. And you are trying to ridicule at me, huh?"
"I am complimenting you for being loved by lots of women."
He simply got speechless.
He knew that although she looked gentle and mild, she had a sharp tongue. So he adjusted his sitting
posture and said, "I know that you have an overseas order and want to give it to Wisemas. But I know
another factory who makes better goods."
"Do you mean that you are going to help me?" She looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why?"
He shrugged his shoulder and said in a lazy tone, "We are partners. So when I have good resources, I
will introduce them to you as a favor!"
She did not buy this at all. "Mr. Cohen, we just met once and we are not even close. Even if we work
together, I get what we want and you take what you need. Considering my company's situation, others
just want to avoid getting involved, let alone introducing resources to me…"
He was lost for words for a moment.
If he had known that she would be so suspicious, he would not take that call last night.
"I did lie to you. Actually, I don't want you to partner with Wisemas." He took out his phone and showed
a photo to her, suddenly being serious, "This is my girlfriend but she was seduced by Mr. Longman's
son. They then went abroad together."
He showed an affectionate look and continued, "I loved her very much. I gave her cars, houses, and
jewelries but she still ran away with that man. I have to revenge. If I don't, I won't be a real man."
She looked at the woman in the photo and said, "Your girlfriend is quite beautiful. I did not expect that
you would have such a day."
He ignored her sympathetic look and said, "Yes. I can't stand it! So I want to seek revenge on
Wisemas. No friends of mine are allowed to collaborate with Wisemas. Since you are my working
partner, you can't work with them either."
"This factory has a higher standard of manufacturing than Wisemas. Just believe me." He fiddled with
his phone and added, "I will send you the phone number of the person in charge of Yutoga."
" Yutoga?" She was slightly shocked.
She knew this factory which was quite famous in South Riverside. Due to its high quality, many
companies went to them for manufacturing. She heard that their orders had been scheduled to next
year.
At first, she also wanted to place an order. But there was no way for her to know them, so she chose
Wisemas as the second-best option.
"I am quite familiar with their business department in South Riverside Region." Seeing a box of
mangoes next to the table, he took one without asking and peeled it. "You just call and talk to him first."
She immediately called the number.
The other side answered her call instantly.
She knew the overseas order like the back of her hand, and chatted eloquently with Yutoga's
employee. She did not look like a novice who just entered the business industry. Talking so fluently with
clear logic, she impressed him a lot.
Finally, people from Yutoga told her that they could finish making the products within the time limit after
signing a contract. But they needed her to come to the factory on Thursday to have a look and a
discussion before signing the contract.
After hanging up the phone, she felt completely relieved. "Hayden, you have done me a big favor."
"As long as you don't do business with Wisemas, we are friends." He had already finished a mango
and was wiping his hand. "The mangoes from Fruity Express are good. Did Jared ask them to deliver it
to you?"
She thought of what happened yesterday afternoon and frowned slightly. "No. We got a divorce and I
would not accept things from him. These mangoes are from my childhood friend. If you like it, you can
bring it home."
"Is that so?" He raised his eyebrows and gave her a weird glance.
She was a big confused by his gaze. Checking the time, she got up and put on her coat. "Mr. Cohen, if
you are free, I will treat you to lunch."
"Okay. I will find a good restaurant." He followed her and left the office.
"Amber, come out here, you little bitch! I have to teach you a good lesson!"
When they got out of the office, they heard some noise outside. Amber found the voice familiar.
She looked up and saw Shonna standing not far away with hands on her hips.
Some employees wanted to drive her out but Shonna scold them and made them afraid to come near.
Amber walked over on her high heels and asked calmly, "Ms. Woodham, what do you want?"
"You bitch! Here you are at last!" Seeing her, Shonna was angrier. She lunged at Amber and slapped
on her face.
