Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 290

"What?" Jared's expression slightly changed, emanating a low pressure.

After a few seconds, he asked, "How's Amber doing now?"

"Ms. Reed has been in her office without going out, so the reporters didn't harm him. I guess she has been impacted mentally, though," said Ben.

Jared narrowed his cold eyes. "Release some celebrity scandals on the internet to distract the public's attention. Besides, find out who's behind the KOL accounts that spited Amber and the individual accounts who had given the foulest insults."

He would get even with them one after another.

"Got it, Mr. Farrell." Ben nodded and went to execute it.

Jared pulled out his phone from the trousers pocket and dialed Amber's number. "Hello, the subscriber you've dialed is busy. Please call later..."

Busy?

Jared frowned.

He wondered who she was talking to now.

Faces of Cole, Jeremy, and other men flashed across his mind. The more he wondered, the more annoyed he became.

He put away his phone and walked to the elevator in the end.

He was worried about Amber, so he decided to check on her personally.

At Goldstone Co.

Amber noticed the missed call from Jared. A trace of surprise flashed through her eyes. Soon, it disappeared.

She could guess why he had called her.

Probably, he had also seen the news online.

"Hello, Amber? Are you still there?" Hayden didn't receive her response, so he called her from the other end of the line.

Amber put the phone back to her ear. "Yes, I'm still listening. Sorry for that. I got a missed call just now."

"Who was it?" Hayden asked curiously.

Amber's eyes twinkled. "No one important. Forget it."

"All right." Hayden shrugged and didn't suspect her words. He said with a solemn look, "Since Elias Lansdale has done that to Makenna, we need to ask him to stand out and prove your innocence. Otherwise, this matter will be too difficult to be resolved."

"I know." Amber nodded. "I called Elias earlier, but he didn't answer the call."

"He should be in the operating theater now. A foreign politician had a brain tumor. He knew Elias could more likely to be successful if he did the operation, so he came from abroad deliberately. The operation is taken today. My father and his coworkers are waiting at the hospital now. This operation will take a long time. It would take about twenty hours," said Hayden.

Amber raised her chin in understanding. "I see."

She was worried that Elias had refused to answer her call deliberately.

Since he hadn't done it purposely, she was relieved.

"So I need to wait for another twenty hours before he can prove my innocence?" Amber frowned.

Things would be out of control in twenty hours.

It wasn't the most important, though. The most important was Bernardo wouldn't give her twenty hours before handing back the management power.

Hayden heaved a sigh. "Right. All you can do is wait. I can help you put a lid on this, for the time being, so you can have a break. Then Goldstone's stock market would be stabilized... What?"

He suddenly saw something and blinked in surprise.

"What happened?" Amber asked in confusion.

Hayden approached the laptop closer. After ensuring that he didn't make a mistake, he swallowed hard and said, "Amber, good news. The heat online had been reduced a lot. Did you ask someone to do it?"

"No, I didn't." Amber shook her head.

Hayden frowned. "It's weird. Just now, there was an uproar online. Now, almost everything has gone. I'm sure it's been suppressed by someone. If that wasn't you, who would it be? Cole? Or Jeremy?"

"No way!" Amber shook her head affirmatively. "A lot of reporters went to Cole's company as well. He must be busy dealing with them, so he won't have time to help me suppress the news. Jere... he had a filming project on a closed occasion now. I'm afraid he even doesn't know what's going on. I don't think he has done it..."

"Not Jeremy nor Cole. Who was it? Would it be..." Hayden thought about a man, looking solemn.

Amber also thought about him. Her red lips parted, and she uttered a name, "Jared Farrell."

It must be him. Just now, he had called her.

"I also thought about him. It's highly possible. Amber, if it was Jared for real, would you forgive him?" Hayden asked her tentatively.

Amber lowered her head and said flatly, "No, I wouldn't. It's a different matter."

Hayden immediately smiled when hearing her answer. "That's good, then."

Amber felt weird. "Aren't you his friend? Why don't you hope me to forgive him?"

"Oh... Well..." Hayden looked away in the sense of guilt and let out two hollow laughs. "Well... I only support the reasonable ones, not my friends. He's done so much to hurt you before. Of course, I won't support him."

"Really? You do have an open mind." Amber nodded.

Hayden saw her believe him, breathing a deep sigh of relief.

"All right, Hayden. I've gotta go now." Amber rubbed her temples.

Hayden hummed. "OK. If you need any help, call me at any time. I'll try my best to help you. Besides, you must be careful. Don't face those netizens and reporters. They are all nuts. They will hurt you easily, so you must be careful. Don't get hurt."

"No worries." Amber smiled when hearing his reminder.

After hanging up the phone, she put down the phone. Then she clicked the mouse to search for the news related to her.

Just like what Hayden had said, her news had been suppressed. She could only see a few pieces. The commented and reposted news had been gone completely. Instead, the celebrities' scandals replaced it in the trends.

Some had cheated on their spouses. Some hooked up with fans. Some evaded paying the taxes.

Not to mention Amber, all the netizens could tell those artists' scandals were used to distract the attention from her news.

However, those scandals had attracted the public's attention as expected. Hence, they turned to fire at those celebrities instead.

"Phew..." Amber stood up and walked to the French window to look down. Half of the reporters had gone. She guessed they had gone to interview the artists.

She breathed a sigh of relief. Now, she had time to stabilize the stock market.

In the hospital, Makenna was happily munching some fruits while sitting on the bed.

Thinking of what she had seen online, the cyberbullying that Amber was suffering, she couldn't help laughing out aloud.

How stupid those netizens were! She had just posted a status, but they all believed that she had been bullied, which was done by Amber.

However, due to their stupidity, Makenna could succeed. All she wanted was to push the blame to Amber, so Amber couldn't get rid of it at all.

Why had she been bullied by Amber was still safe and sound?

Makenna couldn't bear it at all. Hence, she must drag Amber into the mere with her.

However, Amber was also stupid. How could she post that line to say she was innocent online? The netizens would never buy it.

Many artists said they were innocent after their scandals had been exposed, but the scandals were proved to be correct in the end. Hence, the netizens would never believe someone declaring herself innocent online.

Right then, the ward door was open. A bony, dystrophic figure poked in. "Hi, Makenna."
