Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 160

So that was how it was.

Jared pursed his lips.

He knew Hugo Reed had kidnapped Makayla, but he hadn't expected that he was forced by Trenton.

It seemed that investigation should be conducted thoroughly. Otherwise, it was very likely that people would be blinded by the illusion and could not see the truth.

Thinking of the hatred that Trenton had shown when he mentioned Hugo, Jared felt that it was ridiculous.

What was even more ridiculous was that he really believed Trenton, who said that Hugo owed his family a life.

Thinking of this, Jared looked at Amber with guilt and shame in his eyes.

He felt ashamed to regard her father as an ill person based on one-sided story.

Amber had no time to pay attention to Jared. She lowered her head and clenched the necklace. "That's why this necklace appeared in the Reed family."

It should have been taken off Makayla's neck when his father kidnapped her.

"Yes." Georgia nodded.

Amber asked again, "Then how did Makayla die?"

She had a bold guess.

A guess that she was unwilling to think about.

Under Amber's gaze, Georgia slowly said, "She was thrown into the river by your father and drowned, in front of Trenton and his wife."

Bam!

Her guess was true.

Amber's felt dark before her eyes as if the entire world was spinning.

She swayed and was about to fall.

Jared grabbed her shoulder and let her lean into his arms. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Amber bit her lip and answered in a weak voice.

Georgia also looked at her with concern. "Sit down."

Jared helped Amber sit down.

Amber trembled slightly. "How could my father do such a stupid thing?"

He actually drowned a child to death.

No wonder Trenton forced his father to death six years ago. He was also taking revenge.

"Yes, your father was stupid, but it's understandable. After all, he had been forced into such a situation. It was really easy to do stupid things on impulse." Georgia touched her head with concern.

Amber closed her eyes. "He was too impulsive."

"Don't you find anything wrong with it?" At this time, Jared suddenly spoke.

Amber looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Since your father drowned Makayla in front of Trenton and his wife, why was your father not arrested and sent to prison?"

Jared said, "Trenton will seek revenge for the smallest grievance. He wouldn't let go of your father and Goldstone Co., but he did. Not only did he not affix legal responsibility on your father, but he also let your father return and continue to develop Goldstone. He didn't deal with your father and Goldstone until six years ago."

Amber suddenly understood. "That's right. Why? Do you know, Grandma?"

She looked at Georgia.

Georgia shook her head. "I don't know much about this. Perhaps your father reached an agreement with Trenton at that time, or there would be no explanation."

Amber bit her lower lip. "Maybe, but anyway, the Reed family and the Gardner family are irreconcilable."

This hatred was caused by Trenton. Although her father killed Trenton's daughter, Trenton also forced her father to die.

The hatred between life and death was offset, but the hatred between Trenton and the Goldstone had not yet. She would take revenge for that!

Seeing the hatred in Amber's eyes, Jared really wanted to help her get rid of it.

Her eyes were very beautiful and should not be stained with these things.

But he knew that he was not qualified and had no right to do it.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Amber's cold voice. "Mr. Farrell, I want to destroy the Trident and the Gardner family."

Jared was not surprised to hear this. The hatred in her eyes had already told him in advance her thought.

"And then?" Farrell looked at her.

"Then are you going to intervene?" Amber looked at him expressionlessly.

Jared frowned slightly.

What did her eyes mean? Did she mean that if he was to intervene, she would also deal with him together?

"Mr. Farrell, I want to know your answer. Are you going to intervene and help the Gardner family?" Seeing that Jared didn't speak, Amber asked again.

Georgia replied in a hurry, "Of course not. If he dares to help the Gardner family, I will be the first to object him!"

"Grandma, I want to hear his answer." Amber said.

If it weren't for Georgia, she wouldn't care whether Jared would help the Gardner family or not. It would be good if he didn't. But if he did, help, she would have to deal with him too. If she was unable to deal with him, she would go to the extreme.

The reason why she asked was that she cared about Georgia. Because he was Georgia's grandson, Amber had to make her mentally prepared in advance. If Jared was going to help the Gardner family, she would deal with him, which would make Georgia sad.

"I won't." Jared replied with his eyes lowered.

It was Trenton's fault, so it was reasonable for him to pay the price.

As for Makenna, without the Gardner family, he would not have her looked down upon.

"Very good. Remember what you said. If you suddenly go back on your word like last time, I will risk my life to make you suffer for the rest of your life." Amber said resolutely

He clenched his fists. "No, I won't"

She was serious. If he really went back on his word, she would really do something that would make him suffer for a lifetime.

For example, killing Makenna, or herself...

"What did you do to suddenly go back on your word last time?" Georgia looked at Jared and interrupted his thoughts.

"Nothing." Jared's eyes flickered slightly. He didn't want to answer. At the same time, he looked at Amber, hoping that she would cooperate.

After all, if his grandma knew that Makenna had pushed her downstairs, she would definitely be provoked.

Amber also knew this, so she was ready to cooperate. "Well, Grandma, don't ask anymore. It' has been over. I don't want to mention it. I'm just thinking of the necklace. I know the secret behind this necklace, but I don't know why Dad wanted me to find this necklace."

If it was for revenge, then there was no need. Because even if there was no necklace, she knew that Trenton forced her father to death, she would also take revenge.

Therefore, things were definitely not that simple. This necklace must have other uses.

"I don't know either. Your father said that it was related to a big secret. This big secret should be what happened more than 20 years ago I just told you. As for whether there is anything else, I'm not sure.".

Amber sighed.

Georgia smiled. "All right. Keep the necklace. Maybe you'll find out the truth one day."

"Yes, that's right." Amber smiled. "It's getting late. I have to leave. It's getting dark."

"Okay, I'll ask Jared to drive you back." She looked at Jared and said, "Drive amber back home."

"Sure." Jared took out his car key and agreed.

However, Amber rejected the offer flatly. "There's no need, Grandma. I'll just go and take a taxi. I won't bother you, Mr. Farrell. Goodbye."

As soon as she finished, she smiled, picked up her bag, and left without giving Jared a look.

Jared pursed his lips and subconsciously wanted to catch up with her.

Georgia stopped him harshly. "Stop!"

Jared stopped and asked, "Grandma?"

"Amber told you not to drive her. What are you going to do?" Georgia stared at him.

"Well, you were once asked to drive her, but you refused.

Now, she doesn't ask you to drive her, but you want to. It depends on Amber's willingness."

Jared's lips moved. He wanted to say something, but he was suddenly unable to say anything.

Georgia sighed. "Do you regret it?"

"What?" Jared's eyes flashed.

Georgia snorted. "Stop pretending. I'm asking you, do you regret divorcing Amber?"

Jared felt a sharp pain in his heart all of a sudden.

He lowered his eye slightly to conceal the emotions. "No."
