My ex-wife is so beautiful novel (Jared and Amber)

Chapter 228 You Know Me

"No, it's something else. I don't know why there are so many scandals exposed on the Internet today."

Jeremy replied.

Amber was stunned, "Scandals?"

"Yes. For example, Mr. Ward from HM Company has an illegitimate child. Mr. Lee from Virtuan is

accused of tax evasion and fraud. And Mr. Walters from YCHO committed domestic violent on his wife

and children, and so on. In short, about 20 or 30 executives of different companies got their dirty little

secrets aired online. Now the Internet is boiling." Jeremy said while he held the coffee cup to hide his

sarcasm.

Amber widened her eyes in surprise, "Did they offend a big wheel or what? But it's impossible for so

many people to have offended the same person all together."

"Who knows? Maybe someone doesn't like them, so he does it." Jeremy smiled.

Amber nodded, "You're right. Fortunately, Bernardo Delgado doesn't have any scandals. Otherwise, he

would be cancelled by now. I don't care about that his reputation, but we can't let him inflict harm on

Goldstone.”

"Don't worry. That will never happen to Goldstone." Jeremy's fingers caressed the coffee cup in his

hand.

Amber smiled, "You shouldn't say it so absolutely, even if..."

Before Amber could finish her words, her phone rang.

Amber smiled at Jeremy apologetically and picked up her phone. It was a strange local number.

"Hello, who is it?" Amber answered the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Elias was silent for a while. Then he said, "You don't save my phone

number?"

Amber blinked and asked, "Elias Lansdale?"

"Yes!"

"Amber, who is it?" Jeremy looked at Amber's mobile phone.

Amber gave Jeremy a look that she would talk with him later and then asked Elias, "What's the

matter?"

"Makenna just calls me. I think that she wants to make trouble to you." Elias put his phone on his

shoulder and kept processing the animal corpses on the operating table with his both hands.

Amber frowned, "Why do you say that?"

"Because every time she looks for me, she asks me to deal with you." Elias replied indifferently.

Amber said, "Do you mean that you had done something bad to me before?"

Elias paused for a moment and said, "I'm sorry. I was the one who snatched your bag on the

motorcycle."

"It's you!" Amber stood up angrily.

Jeremy also got up and asked, "Amber, what's wrong?"

"I'm fine." Amber rubbed her forehead.

Then, she asked, "Where is my bag?"

"I threw it into a manure pit." Elias replied apologetically.

At that time, he did not know that Amber was his angel.

Therefore, after snatching her bag, he threw her bag into a manure pith because her phone inside the

bag had stored the evidence of Makenna pushing her downstairs.

"Elias Lansdale, you bastard!" Amber was so angry that her lungs hurt. She took a deep breath to calm

down and said, "What do you call me for today?"

"Makenna contacted me. She wanted to do something bad to you again, so I want you to come and

listen to her plan." Elias finished dealing with the animal's corpse, so he put down the scalpel, took off

his gloves, and went to the basin beside him to wash his hands.

Amber tightened her phone, "Do you want to lure me over and then ask Makenna to deal with me? You

have been on good terms with Makenna, so why should I believe you?"

"I had been on good terms with Makenna because I thought she was you. But now I know it, so I won't

treat her like before. Moreover, I can't tolerate her deception. If you don't believe me, you can bring

some people with you."

Amber fell silent.

After a while, she have made up her mind. "Okay, send me the address."

He said that she could take some people with her, so she decided to meet them. She believed that

even if it was really a trap, she could escape safely. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Most importantly, if what he said was true, she could know in advance what Makenna wanted to do.

Soon, Amber received an address message from Elias.

She replied with a few words: Go there right away.

After seeing this, Elias pushed his glasses and put his phone into his pocket. He took out a bottle of

medicine without label from the glass cabinet beside him and walked out of the gloomy basement,

which was filled of all kinds of animal corpses and several human specimens.

"Amber, are you going out?" Jeremy asked as he saw Amber packing up her bag.

Amber answered and told him what she had just talked to Elias.

Jeremy immediately wanted to go with Amber.

Amber wanted to turn him down. After all, this was the grudge between her and Makenna. She didn't

want to get him involved.

But looking at his expectant eyes, her heart finally softened.

They walked towards the door.

As soon as Amber walked out of the office, Stella came over with a document. "Ms. Reed, where are

you going?"

"I have something to attend to. What's wrong?" Amber looked at her.

Stella shook the document in her hand and said, "Last month's financial report needs to be reviewed

and signed."

"Put it in my office first. I'll come back later."

"Okay." Stella nodded and then saw Jeremy beside her. Her expression suddenly became serious.

"Ms. Reed, this is..." Stella stared at Jeremy and asked.

If Amber hadn't seen the way Stella looked at Jeremy, she would have thought that Stella had fallen in

love with Jeremy at first sight.

"This is my brother, Jeremy." Then, Amber looked at Jeremy and said, "Jeremy, this is my chief of

finance and my good friend, Stella Chan."

"Hello." Jeremy seemed like he didn't notice the strange look in Stella's eyes. He smiled and reached

out to her.

"Hello." Stella's eyes blinked. She also reached out and shook her hand with Jeremy.

Two seconds later, Jeremy took the lead to pull out his hand.

Stella turned around and asked Amber, "Ms. Reed, aren't you the only daughter of your parents? When

did you have a younger brother?"

"He's not my biological brother." Amber explained.

Stella suddenly raised her chin and then turned to look at Jeremy. "Jeremy, right? May I ask about your

family name? Cohen, or, … Rylands?"

"What do you mean?" The gentle smile on Jeremy's face faded.

Amber was also confused. "Stella, what do you mean by asking this?"

Stella smiled, "Please don't get me wrong. When I saw Jeremy, he reminds me of someone I know."

"Do you suspect that I have something to do with that person?" Jeremy stared at her.

Stella looked into his eyes and said, "Yes."

"Then I'm sorry to disappoint you. I am Jeremy Lynch. So the person you mentioned has nothing to do

with me." Jeremy tidied his sleeves and then grabbed Amber's hand. "Okay, Amber, don't waste time.

Let's go."

"Stella, we'll go first. We'll talk about it when I come back." Amber looked at Stella.

Stella nodded. "Okay."

After Amber and Stella entered the elevator, Stella looked away and made a phone call. "Hi there. I

saw a young man who resembled the old master a lot. I suspect that he might be the one we are

looking for. His name is Jeremy Lynch. Investigate him."

On the other side, in the car.

Jeremy said to Amber in a serious tone while driving, "Amber, that Stella is not what she looks like. She

has killed someone. You'd better stay away from her."

Amber was shocked when she heard that. "She has killed someone? Jeremy, don't scare me. How is

that possible?"
