Chapter 298 Acid Attack
Chapter 298 Acid Attack
"What?" Amber frowned and subconsciously looked towards the sound.
But before she could see what was going on, someone held her.
Jared carried her to the side.
The next second, a piece of glass crashed and let out a current-like sound.
"Ouch…" Jared suddenly hummed.
Amber heard him cry out in pain.
She saw his pale and sweaty face and hastily asked, "Are you okay?"
Jared didn't answer and let go of her. He grabbed his trembling right wrist with his left hand.
Amber looked down and exclaimed, "Your… your hand…"
"It's fine. Are you okay?" Jared lifted his head and asked concernedly. His eyes traveled on Amber
quickly.
Amber's lips twitched, and she felt concerned and surprised at the same time.
Jared was injured, but the only thing he cared about was Amber.
Was he insane?
When Amber did not answer, Jared became nervous, "Are you hurt?"
"No," Amber shook her head.
Jared studied her for two seconds to confirm that she wasn't lying. He let out a faint sigh of relief and
smiled weakly, "That's good."
Amber bit her lip and glared at him, "Good for what? Look at your hand!"
"It's okay," Jared said.
Amber pointed at his hand and said, "Is that how you call it?"
The back of his right hand had a tiny wound, revealing flesh and blood. And the rim of the wound
turned charcoal like the burning mark. It was caused by something corrosive.
What could cause the quick corrosion? The answer was sulfuric acid!
Amber glanced at the car door corroded by sulfuric acid off most of the paint. The fluid was still
bubbling on the ground. She immediately knew what had happened.
Someone tried to kill Amber with sulfuric acid.
Then Jared noticed it and helped her dodge the acid, which unfortunately splashed a drop on the back
of Jared's hand. It caused serious burns on the back of Jared's hand.

burned her alive.
Maybe she was lucky and wouldn't die, but her skin would have been completely ruined and never to
be repaired. She would become a terrible and ugly monster!
Amber's heart first skipped a beat in fear, and then anger and hatred rose.
She clenched her fist hard, and her eyes turned red as she looked towards the attacker.
The bodyguard leader had held the man. He looked ordinary, and his mouth was stuffed with a pair of
gloves.
He grimaced as he struggled, chilling people out.
Amber didn't know him and why he held a grudge against her.
But it doesn't matter. Everything would be clear when they got to the police station!
The journalists and the online viewers witnessed this scene, and they were shocked beyond words.
They never thought that someone would throw acid at Amber.
It was a drama that would only happen on TV, but they saw it.
This was juicy! So, the journalists quickly aired it out!
Amber ignored the journalists and returned to Jared's side. She furrowed her brows and looked at his
hand with concern.
"Car keys," Amber urged, "My car is written off. I need to take you to the hospital."
Jared looked at her, "In the left pocket."
"Pants or jacket?" Amber was a little angry at his vague expression.
She was in a hurry to get him to the doctor.
But he was wasting time.
Jared saw that Amber was upset, so he stopped stalling and answered honestly, "Pants."
Amber rubbed her brow and directly put her hand into Jared's left pants pocket.
Jared froze.
He would have taken it himself with his fine left hand.
He didn't expect Amber to get it herself.
Jared could feel Amber's hand through the pants. It was soft, warm and a bit tickling as she reached in.
His eyes flickered, and his thigh muscle trembled.
Amber felt that and looked up. They locked eyes with each other. She suddenly realized she could
have let him do that.
But she didn't!
Amber's ears turned red. She grabbed the keys, pulled her hand out, and avoided his eyes, "Sorry, I
didn't mean to."
She was in a hurry.
Amber didn't realize she was bold until she met Jared's eyes.
Jared's swallowed hard, and he said in a broken voice, "It's okay."
Amber's eyelashes fluttered lightly, and she gave a short reply.
Jared knew she was uneasy and changed the subject, "Did you get the key?"
"Got it!" Amber drew out her palm. She swung the car key with the Maybach logo in the air.
Jared nodded, "Then thank you."
"You're welcome. But that person…" Amber looked at the person kneeling on the ground with a stony
expression.
Jared's eyes gleamed with coldness, and he slowly said, "He is coming for you. What do you want to
do?"
"Send them to the police station." Amber said, "I want to know who told him to do it!"
Amber suspected it was Makenna.
Makenna slandered her, and this person came. It shouldn't be a coincidence.
Jared knew it too. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Alright. I'll ask someone to send him there."
Amber pressed the car keys.
They got into the car and drove out of the parking lot.
On the way, Amber called Sheila and asked her to pull out the parking lot's surveillance tape and send
it to the police station.
The surveillance must record the incident so that Amber would have solid evidence.
After that, she called the police station and told them that they might delay.
Amber was only a person involved in the case, not even a suspect, so the police agreed.
Jared sat in the passenger seat and kept his eyes on Amber.
As he watched Amber calmly negotiate with the police, his eyes were full of admiration.
She had indeed changed a lot after the divorce.
Amber became more excellent.
Amber noticed Jared's gaze and put down her phone. "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing," Jared pursed his lips and said back.
Amber did not ask more questions and turned her head back to focus on the road.
A few minutes later, Amber pulled over on the roadside parking space, "Okay, get off."
Jared unbuckled his seat belt with one hand and glanced out the window, "It's not a hospital."
"It's a clinic. Your hands are shaking from the pain, so we can't wait." Amber said.
Jared nodded slightly, then pushed open the car door and got out.
