Love Letters From My EX

Jared said with his eyelashes down, “Don’t bother. Just continue.”

Amber nodded and put her phone aside.

Then after an hour he finished his speech.

With her notebook closed, Amber smiled at Jared, which was quite rare, “Thank you Mr. Farrell. I almost understand. I will check my notes tonight.”

“That’s good,” Jared stood up, “We will meet at the factory at nine tomorrow. Don’t be late.”

“I won’t.” Amber nodded.

Then the door was opened. Ben came in with a cart on which there were several delicious dishes. Suddenly, the whole room was filled with the smell of food.

With her notebook in arms. Amber said, “Thank you, Mr. Farrell. I won’t bother you from having your lunch. Good bye, Mr. Farrell.”

“Wait,” with her arms in hand, Jared said, “Let’s have the meal together.”

Amber frowned.

Darkness flashed in Jared’s eyes, “You are here at the Farrell Group. As the boss of the Farrell Group, I have the duty to treat you with dinner. It’s nothing personal. You won’t decline, I guess?”

Staring at him, Amber twitched her mouth speechlessly.

So, he meant that if she declined his invitation, it would mean that she didn’t value their cooperation?

She rubbed her forehead and sat back to his seat and said, “I know. Thank you, Mr. Farrell.”

Ease was written all over on Jared’s face, “You don’t have to thank me. I selected some dishes at random. I hope you would like it.”

Then he also sat down again.

While placing the dishes onto the table, Ben couldn’t help murmuring in his mind, “He didn’t select the dishes at random. He picked the dishes that Ms. Reed likes the most on purpose. A poor man. Only with the excuse of business could he have a meal with her together.”

“Here.” Jared gave Amber a fork and a knife.

Amber took the fork and the knife and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. Have a taste.” Jared pointed at the dishes on the table.

As he wished, Amber tasted one of the dishes.

“How’s that?” asked Jared.

Amber swallowed the food in mouth and looked at him. Noticing the expectation in his eyes, she nodded, “It’s delicious.”

Jared heaved a slight sigh and began to eat, “Then enjoy yourself.”

The dishes were not on the menu of the restaurant. They were all dishes native to Amber’s hometown. The chef here had not cooked those dishes before so Jared was quite afraid that Amber would not like them.

But she seemed quite satisfied.

Seeing how the nervous man before him get much more relaxed, Ben shook his head.

Formidable and powerful as Mr. Farrell was in others’ eyes, he seemed so careful and timid in the face of Ms. Reed.

Should others see such a scene, they must have been taken aback.

During the meal, Jared did not eat much. He spent the whole meal staring Amber eating.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He was quite satisfied to see her cheek bulging as she ate.

Jared tried several times to start a conversation with her. But he refrained from doing so as he knew she would not like it.

After the meal, Amber checked the time. It was almost 1:00 p. m. So, she said to Jared that she must leave.

Jared knew she was going to the court so he did not ask her to stay, “I will see you off.”

Amber wiped her mouth and didn’t decline because she knew that if she did so Jared would see him off all the same.

They came to the parking lot. Amber took out her keys. Before she entered her car, they heard someone was calling behind them, “Jared!”

Jared frowned and turned away.

Amber also turned away and saw Mrs. Gardner and Makayla. She raised her eyebrows a bit.

Mrs. Gardner also noticed Amber’s presence and she suddenly stopped crying and glared at her, “Why are you here?”

With arms folded before her chest, Amber was about to say something but suddenly Jared came to stand in front of her and stared at Mrs. Gardner indifferently, “It’s my place. And she is a guest of mine. It’s none of your business. By the way, may I ask why are you here?”

It had never occurred to Mrs. Gardner that Jared would defend Amber in the face of her. Then she stumbled, “I… I’m here to seek your help.”

“Help?” Jared squinted, “What kind of help?”

“It’s about Makenna.” Mrs. Gardner reached out her arm to try to hold his arm in hands.

But Jared noticed her behavior and avoided her.

Mrs. Gardner didn’t get him and almost fell down on the ground.

Luckily, Makayla who was standing behind her stopped her timely so that she didn’t fell down disgracefully.

“Are you alright, mom?” Makayla patted Mrs. Gardner on her back and asked worriedly.

Jared looked Makayla up and down carefully.

So, she was the girl called Judy Lashley?

“I’m fine.” Mrs. Gardner shook her head with fear and said with her voice quivering.

Then she glared at Jared with hatred as if she was scolding why he would treat her in such a way.

Amber tried so hard to refrain from laughing.

She was just unable to find a suitable position for them in this world.

She was not the mother-in-law of Jared anymore. But she still acted in such a way as if she were.

Maybe she still thought Jared would treat Mrs. Gardner as his elders?

As she expected, Jared said impatiently, “What are you trying to tell me, Mrs. Gardner?”

Mrs. Gardner sensed the impatience in his words. She trebled and finally realized that things had changed.

He did not treat her as his elders anymore. He didn’t have to be polite to her.

Mrs. Gardner clenched her hands a bit and then fixed her red eyes on Jared, “Jared, I’m here to beg you to save Makenna.”

Amber sneered slightly.

Now she resorted to Jared after she failed to seek any help from her.

She also wanted to see whether he would agree or not.

Amber looked upwards at Jared.

Jared also felt that Amber was staring at him. And he knew why she would do so.

This time he could tell her clearly that he wouldn’t let her down!

“Save Makenna?” Jared lowered his head to roll up his sleeves so that no one could see his expression.

“Yes,” Mrs. Gardner nodded, “Jared, I beg you.”

During the recent a few days she had been trying whatever she could to save Makenna. But the people she resorted to had all refused to help, which made her quite angry.

All those people used to wave their tails to her like dogs. But now when she needed help, they simply avoid her. She had even said something good for them in the face of Trenton and Jared. Son of bitch!

But the court trial of Makenna’s case was held today. It’s the last chance to save Makenna. Therefore, she had no choice but resorting to Jared despite the warning of Trenton.

“How could I save Makenna?” Jared stared at Mrs. Gardner coldly.

Amber frowned behind him.

What?

He wanted to save Makenna?

Makayla who had always been standing beside silently also looked upwards at Jared.

Her father had told her that Mr. Farrell had no feeling about Makenna and he even loathed her for Makenna had pretended to be Amber Reed. According to her father, he would never save Makenna.

Otherwise, father wouldn’t have stopped Mrs. Gardner from meeting him.

But now it seemed that her father was wrong. Mr. Farrell seemed to have to plan to save Makenna.

Makayla bit her lips with much concern.

Was he blind?

Why would he save Makenna?
