Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 172

"Are you new here?" Makenna looked at the receptionist with a sullen face.

The receptionist shook her head. "No, I am not."

"Since you are not, why did you stop me? You don't know who I am?" Makenna pointed to herself.

She's Jared's fiancée and the future wife of the President of the Farrell group.

How dare the receptionist stop her?

In the face of Makenna's questioning, the receptionist felt stressed.

She tried to maintain a smile on her face and said apologetically, "Miss Gardner, I know who you are, but I really can't let you go up. Mr. Farrell personally instructed that."

"Jared's instruction?" Makenna was stunned, then clenched her fists and asked coldly, "What did he say exactly?"

"Mr. Farrell told us that you should make an appointment in advance when you come to the Farrell Group in the future. If you don't have an appointment, we won't let you go up. If you didn't believe it, you could contact Mr. Farrell in person."

After that, the receptionist bowed slightly and went to the elevator to block Makenna.

Makenna's face turned red with anger.

She's gonna let Jared fire the receptionist asap.

Makenna snorted, turned to the rest area of the hall and called Jared.

Jared was still in a meeting at the hotel. He frowned when he heard his mobile phone ring, and he looked at the screen.

Seeing that it was Makenna, he looked a bit displeased and hung up directly.

Makenna was stunned when she looked at the interface that jumped back to the home screen.

Jared hung up on her?

While Makenna was mad, she also felt disquiet.

She didn't know what he was doing and why he didn't answer her phone.

Was it because he was mad at her switching the proposals, or…?

Makenna bit her lower lip, stopped thinking, and called Jared again.

Anyway, she must let him answer the phone.

"Now that you've finished, let's talk about the precautions and rules of the project. And..."

Jared's words were interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone again.

Seeing that it was Makenna calling, his look turned annoyed and he hung up again.

However, it rang again after a few seconds.

A man sitting on his right glanced his phone curiously. Seeing that it was from Makenna Gardner, he immediately smiled, "Mr. Farrell, since it's your fiancée, answer it. It could be something important."

At the end of the conference table, Amber, farthest from Jared, raised her eyebrows slightly.

She eyed Jared with interest.

Didn't he love Makenna deeply?

But now he didn't want to answer Makenna's phone, and even felt impatient with her call. Was there a problem between the two people?

Amber was not the only one who thought so, and the other bosses thought so too.

After all, everyone saw Jared's reaction.

If Mr. Farrell really had a conflict with the girl of the Gardner family, they should probably reconsider their attitude towards the Gardner family.

In the past two months, the Gardner family had become arrogant since they were close to Mr. Farrell. O had long been unsatisfied with the Gardner family. Naturally, they wanted the Gardners to be rejected by Mr. Farrell.

"Sorry, suspend the meeting for a while. I'll go out and answer the phone." Jared didn't know what other people are thinking. He stood up with his phone still ringing.

He knew that if he didn't answer the phone, Makenna would keep calling.

Even if he turned it off, Makenna would turned to call Ben.

"We understand. Business is important, but family is also important. Mr. Farrell, go now, and don't let your fiancée wait too long." Other bosses said with a smile.

Jared nodded slightly and walked out of the meeting room.

Ben naturally went out with him.

After they left, the meeting room became lively.

"Mr. Farrell is an extraordinary and talented young man. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a good eye for women. He actually likes the girl of Gardner family. You all see how unreasonable she is when she just called. With such a woman, Mr. Farrell will be worn out in the future."

"You are right. One of my mistresses was like this. She kept calling me when I didn't answer the phone. It's really annoying."

"Miss Reed." Suddenly, a man looked at Amber.

Amber was drinking tea while listening to their gossiping. She didn't expect someone to cue her.

"What happened? Mr. Boyd." Amber put down her tea cup and smiled politely at the man who called her.

Mr. Boyd said, "In terms of appearance and ability, you are better than the girl of Gardner family. It's really a pity for Mr. Farrell to divorce you and choose the girl of Gardner family."

Amber looked at him for a few seconds and suddenly understood the man's intention.

This person was jealous of her being so young and capable of getting a seat in the project, so he wanted to provoke her to deepen the resentment between her, Jared and Makenna.

He was really shameless.

Amber scolded Mr. Boyd in her heart, but she replied with a smile, "You must be joking. How can it be a pity? On the contrary, he is very lucky. After all, he has found true love. Isn't it popular nowadays for a competent and successful men to find a goofball as his girlfriend? Miss Gardner fits him very well. As for me..."

Amber smiled even brighter, "As you just said, my appearance and ability are better than Miss. Gardner's, so I think I am competent and successful too. So I should also find a boyfriend like Miss Gardner, who is young and has a sweet tongue. In conclusion, my divorce from Mr. Farrell is good for both me and Mr. Farrell. I think that was not a pity."

"Miss Reed is right..." Mr. Boyd made a reluctant attempt to smile.

This woman was really shameless. First, she belittled Mr. Farrell and Makenna, saying that Mr. Farrell had a unique taste and was fond of good-for-nothing goofballs. Moreover, she implied that Mr. Farrell was not young and didn't know how to say sweet words. She also mocked that Makenna was the goofball that Mr. Farrell liked. After saying that, she praised herself.

Not only did Mr. Boyd feel speechless, but other people were shocked on spot.

At the same time, they now knew that Amber Reed was a tough nut. Whoever dared mess with her would be faced with a fierce counterattack.

Also, Trenton may know it better than others.

Amber looked at the people who stopped talking and picked up the tea cup again to block her smile.

Outside the conference room, Jared call Makenna back.

Before he could speak, Makenna's soft voice came, "Jared, why didn't you answer my phone?"

"I'm in a meeting." Jared frowned and replied impassively.

Makenna said, "But you answered my phone at a meeting before, Jared. Are you angry with me?"

Jared replied, "Then tell me, why am I angry with you?"

"You're angry because I switched Miss Reed's proposal." Makenna whispered.

Jared replied, "It seems you have known that."

"Yes, Dad came back and told me." Makenna nodded, "So I hurried to the Farrell Group to find you and wanted to explain to you, but I couldn't go up. Jared, did you tell the receptionist not to let me up?"
