Chapter 301 Makenna’s Admirer
He only went to the forest for a magazine shooting where there was no signal, but he didn’t expect that after he was out of the forest, a tons of news about Amber had popped up on his phone.
That woman, Makenna, had the audacity to frame Amber for harming her and smear Amber’s reputation on the internet.
And those reporters, netizens, and the one who threw the sulfuric acid, he would not spare any of them!
Hearing the hidden anger in Jeremy’s voice, Amber knew that what had happened to her had made even this usually gentle young man angry, and she hurriedly said, “Don’t worry Jere, I’m fine.”
“Really? That sulfuric acid…”
“The acid did not splash on me, there were many reporters who saw it at the time, there should be a video online, you can see the video, and I’m fine, really.” Amber shook her head.
Jeremy lowered his eyelids, “I know. I watched it. I’m just still not comfortable with it.”
“How about now?” Amber smiled softly.
Jeremy hummed, “I’m less worried now knowing you’re fine. Just leave the rest to me, I’ll take care of it.”
“Huh?” Amber was a little confused, “What do you mean Jere, what do you want to do?”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes and smiled a little, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, “You will soon know, in short, I will make all those who treat you badly, pay the price!”
After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.
“Jere? Jere?” Amber shouted twice. Hearing no answer on the phone, she quickly took her cell phone and looked at it.
She only saw her main menu, she suddenly understood, the phone had been hung up by him, “This boy…”
She didn’t know why, but Amber felt a little uneasy for some reason, and felt that Jere’s words foretold what was going to happen next.
She hoped she was not over thinking this.
“What’s on your mind, why are you grimacing?” Jared’s voice came in a low, caring voice.
Amber held her phone back. “Nothing. What are you doing here? The reporters…”
“They’ve been evicted from the police station,” said Jared, who sat down next to her.
“Did you ask the police to do that?” Amber looked at him sideways. “The reporters have been out there for so long, but the police haven’t driven them away, and the chances of driving them away now are slim unless someone intervenes.”
Jared smiled when he heard how quickly she had guessed the truth, “It’s me. You’ve been in there for so long, I was worried about you and didn’t want to wait in the car, so I had the police get rid of the reporters, but that’s only one of the reasons.”
Amber frowned. “What else?”
Jared nodded. “Grandma just called.”
Amber straightened her back. “What did Grandma say?”
“Grandma knew what happened today, and she was worried about you, so she called you, but when your call didn’t go through, she called me and asked me about you.” Jared folded his legs gracefully.
Amber smiled gently. “I’m grateful for her concern, but how did she know you were with me?”
“The videos online, she recognized me as the one who saved you,” Jared replied.
Amber lifted her chin in a daze. “I see.”
Jared might not be recognized by others, but Lady Georgia who was his grandmother wouldn’t not know it was him.
“I know, please thank grandmother for her concern. I’ll visit her in a few days,” said Amber, rubbing her temple.
Jared said, “Okay, I’ll pick you up.”
“No, it’s not like I don’t know where the Farrell mansion is. I’ll go there myself. You don’t have to pick me up.” Amber lowered her eyes.
Jared closed his mouth and stopped his words.
He knew that she just didn’t want to go with him.
The two had nothing to say and fell silent.
Moments later, a police officer came to them and said, “Ms. Reed, we’ve finished interrogating the man who threw the sulfuric acid at you .”
Hearing this, Amber immediately stood up.
Jared got up, too. “So why did he do it? Was he bribed? Or was it something personal against Amber?”
These two questions are also what Amber wanted to know the most; she kept both eyes fixed on the officer, waiting for the officer to answer.
The officer shook his head. “No, this man was not bought, and he had no personal vendetta against Ms. Reed.”
“Then why did he do it?” Amber’s pretty eyebrows wrinkled tightly.
Jared saw it and wanted to reach out to smooth her frown, but the thought of her dodging him made him stop. “Don’t frown, it’s not pretty,” he said softly
Amber glanced at him, only to found him weird.
She didn’t care how she frowned.
Why did he care?
Ignoring Jared, Amber looked back at the officer.
“This is Luis Evans, a high school classmate of Makenna’s and also her admirer. His family is in the chemical business, so he can get his hands on something like sulfuric acid.”
“I see.” Amber pursed her red lips.
That’s what she thought. Sulfuric acid is illegal. How could a normal citizen get it?
It’s his family.
Jared said darkly, “That man came after Amber because he saw Makenna’s post and livestream?”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Not really. It was mainly Makenna’s phone call,” the officer said.
Amber clenched her fist and asked at the same time as Jared, “what phone call?”
“Luis Evans said that Makenna had called him before the livestream. On the phone, Makenna cried about what had happened to her, saying that she was in so much pain that she wanted to die. Luis advised her not to act impulsively. Makenna said she didn’t want to act impulsively, but she couldn’t calm down when she saw her enemy was still alive.”
“So he came to me with sulfuric acid?” Amber gritted her teeth.
The officer nodded. “Yeah, something like that.”
“What Makenna did, that’s solicitation, isn’t it?” Jared said suddenly.
The officer nodded again. “Yes.”
Amber bit her lower lip and trembled with anger.
What a perfect move!
Not only did Makenna now smear her online, frame her, and then use her admirers against her, both of which were really clever.
“Can Makenna be arrested on this basis?” Amber asked urgently, looking at the officer.
The officer shook his head. “No, for all we know, Makenna may have wronged Ms. Reed and abetted Luis, but that’s not enough for us to approve an arrest warrant.”
Amber’s face darkened.
Does not constitute the condition for the arrest of Makenna, it seemed that she could not use legal means to deal with Makenna for the time being, she could only use the same means that Makenna used against her, to deal with Makenna!
She did admire Makenna to some extent, though, because every time she did something bad, she was hiding behind someone else’s back, and Makenna was always clean and never got caught.
Such a brilliant mind, but it wasn’t put to good use.
Amber squinted, then asked, “By the way, can I see that him?”
“No, Luis has been officially ordered to be held in detention, so no one can see him except his lawyer, not even the victim, but you can see him when the trial starts.” the officer explained.
Amber tugged the corner of her lips. “I see. Thank you. I’ll leave you now.”
“All Right.” The officer nodded.
Amber takes one look at Jared, and they leave the station.
