Chapter 114 Let’s Talk
Amber’s eyes flashed, and she decided to go out for a while and see a doctor.
To see what’s wrong with her body that could make Makenna so concerned.
“If you insist.” Seeing Amber insisting so much, Lady Georgia had to give up trying to persuade her to see a
doctor. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Shonna snorted coldly, “Mother, I think she is just being ungrateful.”
“Shut up!” Lady Georgia yelled.
Her body trembled, and she stopped talking for a while.
Although Lady Georgia is old, she’s always had that strong presence.
For so many years, she only dared to complain behind her back but didn’t have the audacity to fight against her
face to face.
“By the way, Amber, this is for you.” Suddenly Lady Georgia reached up and fished under the pillow for a red
string.
And something was hanging from the red string. It was a key.
“Grandma, is this what you said you would give me?” Amber curiously took the key.
Those two had thought it was something valuable, but when they saw it was a dusty key, they immediately lost
interest.
Lady Georgia nodded, “Yes, this was given to me by your father six years ago, and he asked me to give it to you. ! should have given it to you last time, but I didn’t remember it. Since now you are here, I will give it to you.”
Amber looked at the key in her hand, and her face was full of doubts. “Grandma, why didn’t my dad give me the key directly, but ask you to hand it over?”
Moreover, she just realized that, her father and Lady Georgia might have known each other quite well.
Lady Georgia smiled and replied, “Actually, your grandfather and my late husband used to be comrades–in–arms.
That’s why six years ago, your father gave me the key when he couldn’t find you because I was the only one he could trust in Olkmore City. After that, your father…”
She didn’t say anything anymore, just sighed.
Amber knew what she wanted to say, and then, your father jumped off a building.
Amber clenched the key tightly, her eyes were wet, and she regretted the day her father jumped off the building, why she went hunting down the funds that her stepmother stole away.
If she hadn’t chased her that day and stayed by her father’s side, maybe her father wouldn’t have had the chance to jump off the building.
Thinking of this, Amber burst into tears and tears fell on the key in her palm. She said in a choked voice, “Grandma, did my dad tell you what this key is for?”
“Of course he did.” Lady Georgia handed her a tissue, “Your father said, this is the key to your family’s old house. There is something very important to you in the old house. It seems to be a necklace. Find it. That necklace has a huge secret, and your dad didn’t say what it was.”
“Okay, I see, thank you grandma,” Amber sniffled, stopped crying, and forced a smile back.
Lady Georgia patted the back of her hand and said, “It’s getting late. Go back and visit me next time.”
“Well then, grandma, I’ll go first.”
After saying that, she picked up the bag on the side and put it on her shoulders, and walked towards the door, without even looking at them.
Shonna sneered, “How impolite!”
Amber heard it, paused for a moment, then sneered, and continued to open the door indifferently.
Just when she was about to walk to the elevator, she was suddenly stopped by someone, “Wait a minute.”
Amber stopped and looked back at the woman opposite, “Miss Gardner, what’s the matter?”
“Let’s talk.” Makenna said with a smile.
Amber raised her eyebrows, “Talk?”
“That’s right.”
Amber smiled, “With all due respect, I don’t think we have much to talk about.”
“No, there’s a lot we can talk about.” Her eyes swept across Amber’s abdomen inadvertently and said softly.
More than a month ago, Chloe Mendez photographed the scene where Amber and Jared entered the same room and didn’t come out for a long time. She knew that in that situation, something must have happened. Amber smelled the chicken soup and wanted to vomit, so she suspected that Amber was pregnant.
And the longer the pregnancy, the stronger the body’s reaction. Amber would definitely think that she’s sick, and then go to the hospital for examination. Maybe when she found out that she is pregnant, she would find Jared and make him responsible for her.
Thinking about it, Makenna’s hands couldn’t help clenching tightly.
In short, she must not let Amber have the opportunity to do so.
Jared is a very responsible man. If Amber is really pregnant, maybe he will remarry her for the baby. Then, her painstaking effort for so many years would come to nothing but a joke.
Amber squinted her eyes; she already knew that her intention was not good.
“Okay, then let’s talk.” Amber lowered her eyelids, “I want to know what exactly you are going to talk to me about.”
*Since you agreed, come with me.” Makenna smiled.
Amber’s eyes darkened, “Aren’t we talking here?”
“It’s not private here with people coming and going”
“Okay, then you lead the way.” Amber smiled with a gesture of please.
Makenna snorted in her heart.
Smile as you please, Amber.
Let’s wait and see if you could smile later.
Makenna turned and walked forward, her lips curled up.
Amber looked at her back, and she gradually calmed down. She pursed her red lips and took out her phone from her bag, and called Jared.
Although she didn’t know what happened to Makenna. She suddenly showed malice to her so restlessly. She even took her to a quiet place intentionally to make it clear that she wanted to get at her. If that was the case, how could she not fight back?
Then she could let Jared know how vicious Makenna was. Amber didn’t believe that he would not bear any grudge against her after this. Maybe, he would leave her. If this was the case, that was what Makenna brought on
herself.
The call was quickly answered, and Jared’s low and pleasant voice came, “What’s the matter?”
Amber looked at the screen and did not answer, but quickened her pace to keep up with Makenna.
She took her to the stairwell.
Amber put the phone behind her back and said, “Miss Gardner, why did you take me to the safe stairwell of the advanced inpatient department? What do you want to talk about?”
Jared’s pupil shrank suddenly. He was about to hang up just now because he thought that Amber accidentally pressed the phone and made the wrong call.
Are they in the same place?
Makenna raised her arms and didn’t answer her question, but looked around and said, “There shouldn’t be any surveillance here, huh?”
“What do you want to do?” Amber pursed her red lips and looked at her vigilantly.
Jared wanted to know that as well.
He already understood that this call was not made by Amber accidentally. She called him on purpose to let him hear the conversation between them and even told him the address.
Thinking of this, Jared clenched his cell phone and asked Ben to hurry up.
“Yes,” Ben responded and accelerated.
In the stairwell, Makenna smiled with her hand covering her lips, then her face turned grim, and she scowled at Amber in a malicious way, “Miss Reed, do you know how much I hate you? I’ve hated you since the first day of college. We are born to be foes, and only one of us can live, so you can go to hell.”
