Love Letters From My EX

Amber was stunned before she calmed down after a while. It’s ridiculous.

Against his will?

What, someone else made him do those things?

Amber did not take his words seriously. She thought he would say that just to justify his former behavior. So, she pointed at her watch and said, “It’s time for the meeting, Mr. Farrell.”

Jared knew she was still unwilling to trust him. He heaved a slight sigh and said, “Then let’s go.”

Then they both headed towards the meeting room silently.

Following them behind and staring at their back, Ben shook his head speechlessly.

For such a situation, Makenna was the culprit to blame.

Then the meeting began.

Jared was delivering a speech about the drawback of using new energy. And the audience were all listening carefully.

Recently, Amber had been learning about new energy earnestly. She had even attended classes related to new energy in universities.

That’s why she could at least understand roughly the content of the speech like what she did last time.

Then the meeting ended two hours later.

Jared stood up, “Everyone could leave now except Amber Reed.”

Amber was ready to leave. She halted when hearing his words and looked upwards at him. She didn’t understand why she could not leave.

The others were also curious about that. But they dared not ask so they could do nothing but leave the room with their doubtful eyes fixed on them.

When the door closed behind them, Amber could still hear someone saying, “Why would Mr. Farrell do that? Is he having an affair with her?”

Amber twitched her mouth a bit.

Good idea.

Affair?

Interesting.

Amber rubbed her temple and stared at Jared who was approaching her, “What do you want, Mr. Farrell?”

“Nothing important,” Jared stopped before her and looked at the notebook on her desk, “Do you understand my speech?”

Amber knew what he was saying and said, “I didn’t understand it thoroughly. I need to do some research at home.”

Otherwise, she wouldn’t understand how it worked when paying field visit at factories.

Then those bosses would be laughing at her.

“You can ask me if you don’t understand,” said Jared.

“Ah?” Amber tickled her eyes confusedly.

Jared put a faint smile on his face, “Just sit down.”

Now she knew why he would let her stay. He was afraid that she didn’t understand his speech.

Amber bit her lips a bit, “Thank you so much. But I could do some research at home.”

“We will pay a field visit to the factory tomorrow. There is no time for you to do any research at home. Plus, the materials available at your home are outdated. But I can tell you the latest results I got in my lab,” Jared said with his eyes fixed on her.

Amber was speechless.

He was right. New energy was a new section of industry and knowledge in this field was constantly updated on an every day basis. The materials available at her home were definitely unable to catch up with the newest findings in this field.

So, she had no choice but accepting his help.

“I understand. Thank you, Mr. Farrell!” Amber bowed to Jared.

Before Jared could stop her, he suddenly caught sight of her breasts through her neckline. Desire welled up in his eyes.

Then he quickly looked away and replied in a low voice, “That’s nothing. We’re working partners. And don’t bow in front of others, especially men, when you are in such clothes.”

“Oh?” Amber stood upright confusedly before she looked downwards at her body.

She instantly knew why he would say that.

She was wearing a V-neck knitwear, which was quite loose.

It looked nice. But when she bent over, anyone stood in front of her could see her breast once he lowered his head.

Over this, Amber covered her neck with her hand instantly and became flushed. He must have seen her breasts.

She was angry both at him and at herself.

After all, it was she that bowed down at first; he did not look at it on purpose.

And thanks to his warning, she would not lose her dignity in the face of others, who might be happy to see them.

Then they both felt embarrassed and silence began to reign this room.

After a while, Jared coughed gently before he finally opened his mouth, “Let’s get started. You are going to the court today, aren’t you?”

He was trying to defuse the embarrassment. Amber understood his intention and thus nodded.

Then she sat down with her coat tightly buttoned and then opened the notebook in front of her.

Jared sat on the nearby seat with one arm on the back of her chair.

They sat quite close. Seen from the front, Jared looked as if they were hugging.

Amber did not notice his little trick. She focused all her attention on her notebook,

Jared felt it lucky that she didn’t notice what they were doing. Otherwise, he would lose this precious opportunity to get close to her.

Over this, Jared looked down to hide the emotion in his eyes.

Suddenly, her phone rang and Jared had to stop.

Jared frowned. He was made a little upset by the phone call.

Who dared to call her at this time?

Jared looked upwards and saw the name that popped on her screen was Cole Lyon.

Amber pressed the green icon and said, “Cole!”

“I heard you will go to South Riverside, honey?” asked Cole.

Amber nodded, “Yes.”

Jared heard Cole’s words and frowned a bit.

Why would she go to South Riverside?

Then the same question was asked by Cole.

Amber didn’t hesitate to reply, “It’s Jere’s runway show. He invited me. But how did you know it?”

“Sheila Dawson told me that. I was fetching a material from Goldstone and then I saw she was booking a hotel in South Riverside,” explained Cole.

Amber raised her jaw and then nodded.

“When will you go there, honey?” Cole asked again.

“Friday.”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Friday…

Jared tickled his eyes as if he was wondering.

On the other side, Cole squinted, “Okay. Then I will go with you. I must keep an eye on Jeremy in case he would steal you from me.”

Seemingly he was not joking.

Indeed, Jeremy could do so.

Amber didn’t understand what Cole had said. She smiled and shook her head, “I’m not a kid anymore. See you later. I’m still at the meeting.”

“Wait.” Cole stopped her instantly.

Amber put her phone back to her ears and said, “What’s up?”

“Shall we have dinner together this evening? Today Makenna will be sentenced. We should celebrate,” said Cole smilingly.

Amber nodded and said, “Okay. You pick the restaurant and I will bring Jere with me.”

“Rodger that!” Cole said happily.

After that, she put down her phone and smiled regrettably, “Sorry for taking up your time.”
