Love Letters From My EX

Amber was reading a data table. Upon hearing her phone vibrate, she picked it up and saw the message. Instantly, she sent him a voice message. “What do you plan to do now?”

Elias hailed a tab and sat in. He entered: “I’m fine. I didn’t admit it. However, the police should know I was the accomplice, but they couldn’t show any evidence. Nor could Makenna Gardner. They have no right to arrest me unless they can find the six men.”

Amber breathed a sigh of relief. Then she asked, “Where are the six men now? Will they be caught?”

Elias typed: “No, they won’t. I’ve changed their names and sent them abroad. They’ll never return all their lives.”

Hence, the police could never find them.

Since the six men couldn’t turn him in, Makenna had to bear the responsibility for her crime line.

Amber nodded and said, “That’s better.”

After exchanging a few words, they finished chatting.

Meanwhile, Sheila knocked on the door and entered. “Excuse me, Ms. Reed. Mrs. Gardner and Ms. Makayla Gardner from The Trident Group came here. They wanted to see you.”

Makayla had been a hot topic in Olkmore City.

A few days ago, she suddenly appeared. Later, the Gardner family announced her identity to the public. Only then did the public know Makenna wasn’t the only daughter of the Gardner couple. They had an older daughter that had been kidnapped when she was little.

However, the topic of conversations had recently become the younger daughter of the Gardner family.

“Mrs. Gardner?” Amber narrowed her eyes. “Why are they here?”

Sheila shook her head. “I don’t know, Ms. Reed. I guess it must have something to do with Makenna Gardner.”

“Really? No need to receive them.” Amber waved her hand.

Sheila looked at her. “Ms. Reed, don’t you want to meet them?”

“No, I don’t,” Amber confirmed.

Sheila pushed up her glasses. “I see. I’ll ask the guards to send them away.”

After that, she turned around to walk to the door.

However, as soon as she reached the door before opening it, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Mrs. Gardener came in with Makayla, followed by a receptionist.

The receptionist saw Sheila and smiled bitterly. “I’m sorry, Ms. Dawson. I didn’t mean to let them come upstairs. They insisted and threatened to die here if I asked the security to send them away. So…”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Sheila looked at Mrs. Gardner and her daughter, feeling an intense migraine. Rubbing her temples, she turned to look over at Amber. “Ms. Reed, what…”

Amber heard what the receptionist said. She glanced at Mrs. Gardner coldly, pressed her lips, and said, “I’ll deal with them. Please go back to work. Tell Riley too.”

“Yes, Ms. Reed,” Sheila answered.

Riley, the receptionist, breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed Ms. Reed didn’t blame her for failing to stop the two women.

She followed Sheila out of the office, leaving Amber, Mrs. Gardner, and Makayla there.

Amber leaned against the back of the chair, raised her head, and calmly looked at Mrs. Gardner and Makayla walking to her.

Although she was young, she worked as a senior executive in the company for several months. Hence, she emanated a superior aura.

When she looked at Mrs. Gardner, the latter felt stressed.

After all, Mrs. Gardner was only a housewife of a wealthy family, so she lacked temperament.

Recently, something terrible happened to the Trident Group and Makenna, so Mrs. Gardner looked weaker.

Mrs. Gardner also felt how strong Amber’s aura was, although the latter was pretty young. She was unhappy. However, thinking about her purpose in coming here, she suppressed her anger.

Wiping her reddish eyes, Mrs. Gardner took a deep breath to keep calm. Then she put on a wry smile and said, “Ms. Reed…”

“Take a seat.” Amber pointed at the chair opposite.

Mrs. Gardner looked at her, pulled the chair, and sat down.

Amber didn’t look at her. Instead, she looked over at Makayla next to Mrs. Gardner. She curled up her red lips and faked being curious while asking, “Mrs. Gardner, this must be your older daughter.”

“Yes, she is. Her name is Makayla.” Mrs. Gardner pulled Makayla’s hand and patted it dearly. Her face was full of mother’s love. Evidently, she loved Makayla very much.

The more Mrs. Gardner liked Makayla, it would be more helpful for the plan made by her and Hayden to carry out.

Somehow, Amber felt a bit uncomfortable. When seeing how much Mrs. Gardner loved Makayla, she felt a pain in her eyes.

Amber wondered if she was nuts.

She shook her head to suppress the unreasonable feeling and smiled faintly. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Gardner.”

“Nice to meet you, too, Ms. Reed.” Makayla also faked not knowing Amber and answered her timidly. Then she hid behind Mrs. Gardner, looking quite shy.

Amber knew her, so she didn’t find anything wrong. She hummed and withdrew her gaze to look at Mrs. Gardner again. “Mrs. Gardner, you came to my office today. What can I do for you?”

Mrs. Gardner smiled in embarrassment. “Well, Ms. Reed, I came here today for Makenna.”

Bingo. Amber had seen that coming.

Looking at the mid-aged woman opposite, who had changed her attitude completely, Amber said, “Oh? For Ms. Makenna Gardner?”

“Yes.” Mrs. Gardner heaved a sigh. Her eyes reddened.

Amber had figured out why Makenna could make her eyes look reddened whenever she faked being innocent. Like mother, like daughter.

“Ms. Reed.” Mrs. Gardner clenched her hands tightly and gazed at Amber. “Ms. Reed, I know Makenna shouldn’t have set you up and slandered you. But… But she was too reckless. Can you…”

“Mrs. Gardner, do you want me to let go of her?” Amber interrupted her with a smile.

Mrs. Gardner could see the ironic smile on her face, feeling quite unhappy. However, she had to suppress it for the sake of Makenna. She nodded hard and answered, “Yes, Ms. Reed. I came here for this purpose today. As long as you can let go of Makenna, I… I’ll give you five million.”

She showed her index finger and asked, “What do you think, Ms. Reed?”

Amber still kept smiling without answering.

Makayla, behind Mrs. Gardner, bit her lower lip unhappily.

Five million!

One hundred thousand dollars would be a significant amount of money for her. Her mother was willing to give out a million to save Makenna. Hence, she could tell even Makenna was evil. Her mother wouldn’t give up on her.

Makayla reminded herself to work harder to reduce her mother’s love for Makenna. In that case, she could kick Makenna out of the family smoothly.

Seeing that Amber was silent, Mrs. Gardner felt angry. She wondered if Amber thought it was too little.

Hence, she gritted her teeth and added another finger. “Another five million. Ten million dollars. What do you think?”

“Mrs. Gardner, you are so generous. Can you afford ten million dollars?”

Supporting her chin, Amber said ironically, “I heard Mr. Farrell terminated his cooperation with the Trident Group when canceling his engagement to the Gardner family. All the public has known it. Other companies also followed him and terminated their cooperation with your company. Your company’s ranking in Olkmore City has dropped from the top ten to the twenties from the last. Your capital chain has been broken. Besides, Makenna Gardner was arrested last night, which has given the Trident Group another heavy blow.”

“What on earth is your point?” Mrs. Gardner was feeling pretty uneasy inside.
