Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 185

Hence, it was evident who had made a mistake.

Hayden believed Jared must take responsibility for Amber. Amber shouldn't bear it by herself.

Thinking of that, Hayden dialed Jared's phone number with a stern look.

Jared was driving at this moment, sending Makenna home.

Upon hearing the ringing tone, he pressed the Bluetooth on his ear. "Hello?"

"It's me!" Hayden shouted.

Jared frowned. "What's up?"

Hayden was about to speak, but suddenly, he heard a female's soft voice from the other end of the line. "Who is it, Jared?"

"Is Makenna next to you, Jared?" Hayden asked, looking annoyed.

Jared glanced at Makenna in the passenger seat and hummed to answer.

"Forget it. Let's talk later. When Makenna is gone, call me back."

After finishing his words, Hayden hung up the phone.

Jared squinted.

Hayden suddenly called him. He could tell Hayden had something important to tell him. However, Hayden deliberately hid it from Makenna.

Hence, Jared understood what Hayden wanted to tell him wasn't business but about Amber.

"Who was calling, Jared?" Makenna asked when seeing Jared keep silent.

Jared's eyes twinkled slightly. "Hayden. He wants to talk business with me."

"I see." Makenna nodded and didn't suspect anything. "By the way, Jared. Will you go to the charity audition in a few days?"

"Of course. Mr. Furnham is my grandfather's close friend. Grandma hasn't recovered, so she can't attend it. I'll go there on her behalf," Jared answered while turning the steering wheel.

Makenna clapped. "Great! I'll go there with my parents as well. I haven't had a dress for the auction yet. Jared, can you go shopping with me tomorrow?"

She looked at him expectantly.

Jared looked at her apologetically. "I'm sorry, Makenna, but I need to meet the investors from abroad tomorrow, so I'm afraid I can't go with you. I'll let two secretaries go with you."

"No, thanks, Jared." Makenna lowered her head unhappily. "I'll ask Chloe to go with me."

Soon, they had arrived at the Gardner's.

Jared still remembered to call Hayden back, so he rejected Mrs. Gardner's dinner invitation and drove back to the Farrell Group.

As soon as he entered the office, he dragged the tie while pulling out the phone. He called Hayden back.

Hayden had been waiting for his call back. Upon hearing the ringing tone, he immediately swiped to answer. "Has Makenna gone?"

Jared hummed. "What on earth do you want to speak?"

"I want to tell you about Amber's pregnancy," Hayden answered.

Jared narrowed his eyes.

Sure enough, Hayden hid it from Makenna for talking about either business or Amber.

"What about Amber?" Jared pressed his lips and asked; the worry in his voice was evident.

Hayden could tell it, but he didn't expose Jared.

Jared still hadn't figured out his love for Amber so far.

If he exposed that Jared cared about Amber, Jared probably would realize how much he loved her.

In that case, Hayden believed there would be a huge obstacle for him to pursue Amber.

"She's fine, but she's planning to have an abortion," Hayden lay prone on his motorcycle and answered.

Jared's expression slightly changed. "An abortion?"

"Yep."

"How did you know it?" Jared tightened his pinch on the phone.

Hayden shrugged. "Of course, she told me herself."

Herself...

Jared pressed his lips tightly, looking annoyed. Indescribable anger and irritation surged in his heart.

He was the baby's father, but he had to hear the decision of his baby from another man.

"Are you still there, Jared?" Hayden called when hearing nothing from the other end of the line.

Jared looked down and said coldly, "When did Amber tell you she would... abort the baby?"

He rarely paused when speaking about aborting the baby, feeling pretty bitter.

Although he had been mentally prepared that Amber wouldn't want to keep the baby, he still felt complicated when hearing it.

"Two days ago," Hayden tossed his hair and answered.

Jared emanated a low pressure. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I forgot earlier." Hayden shrugged and smiled. "Besides, I thought Amber would tell you. I asked her just now and only to find that she hadn't."

Jared could tell Hayden was showing off complacently, emanating a lower pressure.

"Why are you calling me then?" Jared asked crossly.

Hayden knew he was jealous and angry, curling up his lips into a smile. "I'm calling you to inform you Amber will take the operation in two days. See what you can do."

After finishing the call, Jared frowned deeply.

Her operation would be in two days...

Amber didn't tell him after she had decided to abort the baby. However, she even didn't have the plan to tell him the date of the abortion.

Jared's handsome face darkened. He tabbed Amber's ID on WhatsApp.

At Goldstone Co.

Amber was still dealing with the files. Upon hearing her phone vibrate, she pinched her nose bridge, picked up the phone, and took a look.

Seeing the message from Z, she stood upright and tabbed to read the message.

Z: Do you plan to abort the baby?

Amber pressed her red lips. She replied: How did you know?

Z: Hayden told me just now.

Amber recalled Hayden's call, rolling her eyes patiently.

He was way too nosy.

She heaved a sigh and typed: Yes, I plan to abort it.

Z: Why didn't you tell me?

Amber bit her bottom lip.

Amber: Unnecessary, isn't it?

Z: But I'm the baby's father.

Amber: So what? If I tell you, you'll agree with me as well. So why bother?

Seeing Amber's reply, Jared felt irritated.

He had to admit that what she said was correct.

He didn't want the baby. Of course, he would naturally agree with her aborting it. Hence, it wasn't important if Amber had told him or not. However...

Jared typed: As I said, whether you want to keep or abort the baby, I'll be responsible.

Amber: No need. That's it. Please don't mention this matter in the future.

After sending the message, she directly quit WhatsApp. Even Z also sent her other messages, she didn't read them.

Looking at the last message he had sent, Jared noticed that she didn't reply to him again. He felt exhausted.

He truly wanted to tell her in person that she couldn't be so stubborn.

However, he couldn't do that. Or his identity would be exposed.

"Ben?" Jared frowned and called.

Ben pushed the door open and entered. "Yes, Mr. Farrell?"

"Please ask the bank how much Goldstone has loaned," Jared said.

Ben was confused but didn't ask any questions. He nodded and answered, "Yes, Mr. Farrell."

On the other side, shortly after putting down her phone, Amber saw Sheila return with an invitation card. "Excuse me, Ms. Reed. This is an invitation card from the Furnham family."

"What invitation?" Amber raised her head and took over the delicate invitation card in gold and black.

Sheila answered, "It's the invitation to the charity auction. The Furnham family is a famous philanthropic family in Olkmore City. In recent years, they have been keen to protect wild animals. Hence, all the funds raised from this charity auction this time will be used to protect wild animals."

"I see." Amber nodded in understanding.

Sheila looked at her. "Ms. Reed, are you planning to attend it? If so, I can reschedule your appointments that day."

"Of course, I will attend it. I must show my respect to the Furnham family. And I remember that, all the guests should donate an item for the charity auction, right?" Amer asked.
