Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 341
Upon hearing that, Cole looked down in disappointment. However, he still teased, "Babe, I thought you called me to discuss important things with me. It turned out to be for Jeremy. Babe, my heart is broken."
"Enough!" Amber pinched between her eyebrows. "Cole, do you have the number of Jere's agent? Can you ask his agent where on earth Jere is? Is he at work or in another city?"
"All right. I'll call the agent later," Cole said, scratching his messy hair.
Amber hummed. "Thanks, Cole."
"Not at all." Cole shook his head and asked, "By the way, are you resting home today or going to work?"
"I'm going to work. I don't need to rest for such a long time," Amber said, rubbing her lower abdomen that was with discomfort.
Cole wanted to ask her to rest at home, but he knew she was pretty stubborn. She wouldn't listen to him, anyway. Hence, he heaved a sigh and said, "All right. I'll also go to Goldstone to help you. You were not at work yesterday. I guess there must be a lot of work waiting for you."
Amber knew that he just wanted her to relax, feeling quite warm in her heart. With a smile, she nodded and said, "Sure."
After hanging up the phone, Amber put down the cell phone, stretched, and went to the bathroom to get ready.
One hour later, she arrived at Goldstone Co.
Amber walked to her office door, only to find that Sheila was waiting for her.
"Morning, Ms. Reed," Sheila greeted her with a nod.
Amber smiled at her. "I wasn't in my office yesterday. Anything happened in the company?" she asked while opening the door.
Sheila followed her into the office. "Nothing. Just Mr. Delgado and his running dogs discussed you. They blamed you for your absence and said you didn't deserve to be the vice president."
Amber sneered. "It seems they know they can't take away my management power no matter what they've done. Hence, they can only vent their anger by talking ill of me on my back."
She didn't tell anyone in the company why she was absent from her work yesterday.
After all, it was her privacy.
Moreover, she felt lucky that she hadn't told them. She just said she needed to deal with something urgent, but Bernardo and his men blamed her in that way. If they had known she was absent because of the abortion, Amber couldn't imagine what they would say to slander her.
"I agree, Ms. Reed," Sheila nodded and echoed.
Amber pulled the office chair and sat down. She turned on the laptop and asked, "What's my schedule today?"
Sheila immediately opened her notebook and told Amber about her schedule.
Amber nodded. "I see. Thanks."
"Ms. Reed, I'll go out then." Sheila closed her notebook.
Amber looked at her. "Wait a moment. Sheila, please contact a lawyer for me.
Better he or she is good at finance."
"Ms. Reed, do you want to notarize any documents?" Sheila asked and pushed up her glasses.
Amber nodded. "I just go to know most of my shares were bought by Cole and Jeremy. I can't take them for granted. Hence, I want to have a lawyer draft a notarization letter for me and pay them back."
That was the only thing she could do to thank Jeremy and Cole.
"I see, Ms. Reed." Sheila smiled. She looked at Amber in admiration. "I'll find you the best lawyer."
She respected Amber earlier because Cole required her so.
From now on, she respected Amber from the bottom of her heart.
Not all people could return the favor after they got a free lunch.
Amber was worth her respect on this aspect.
"Thank you, Sheila." Amber smiled at her.
"It's my duty, Ms. Reed," Sheila answered.
Amber clicked the mouse. "By the way, please clean up Cole's desk. From today, he'll come here to help me."
When Sheila heard her words, her eyes lit up. She clenched her hands excitedly.
However, she did it secretly, so Amber didn't see that. She heard Sheila speak in a raised voice, "Yes, Ms. Reed."
"All right. Go back to your work." Amber waved at her with a smile.
Sheila turned around and started cleaning up Cole's desk.
Cole arrived soon right after Sheila finished cleaning up the desk. He entered the office.
Amber put down her pen and asked, "How did it go? Have you contacted Jere's agent?"
"Of course. How can I fail?" Cole smiled and patted his chest.
Amber breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Cole had contacted Jeremy's agent and looked relaxed, Amber guessed that nothing had happened to Jeremy.
"Where is Jere now?" Amber relaxed and asked.
Cole took over the cup of coffee from Sheila and took a sip. "He has gone back to Ensford Town. It seems he has something important to deal with there. He'll come back to town tomorrow."
"I see." Amber nodded.
However, she wondered why Jeremy had turned off his phone for this journey.
She wouldn't get to know the answer until she asked him in person after he returned.
...
The hospital.
Jared finally woke up after being in a coma for one day and two nights.
Logan shed tears excitedly.
"Jared." Logan looked at Jared, who had opened his eyes, and pressed the bell above the bed.
Jared saw that and understood where he was.
He moved his arms, pressed the bed, and wanted to get up.
However, as soon as he tried hard, he felt severe pain in his back. He had to lie prone on the bed again.
"Hmm..." Jared frowned in pain and let out a groan. His pale face became ashen.
Seeing that, Logan hurriedly asked, "Are you OK, Jared?"
Jared tolerated the burning pain in his back and answered hoarsely, "I'm all right, Logan. It's just the wounds on my back..."
"Don't move, Jared. The wounds on your back haven't scabbed yet. They would easily crack," Logan mumbled.
Jared closed his eyes for a moment. "How long was I in a coma?"
"Forty hours," Logan answered after quick math.
Jared frowned deeply.
He didn't expect it was that long.
Amber should have left the hospital for one day.
Jared's face was turning sullen at a notable speed.
He had planned to pick her up from the hospital in person.
But in the end, he had missed the opportunity.
Seeing that Jared was frustrated, Logan blinked. "What's wrong, Jared?"
Jared pressed his lips. "Go check Ward 805 to see if Amber is still there."
Although the hospital said she could leave the hospital yesterday, and she had also planned to leave yesterday, Jared had a fluke that she might have stayed longer.
With his persistence, when Jared saw Logan didn't move, his temples popped. He urged, "Logan, why are you still sitting here? Hurry up and go!"
"Not necessary. Amer left the hospital yesterday," Logan said, pouting.
Jared's expression stiffened. His expectation vanished. His heart sank.
Amber had left for real.
Sure enough, the reality was always much crueler than the expectation.
Looking at his tightly clenched fists and disappointed face, Logan felt upset as well.
He asked gingerly, "Jared, are you unhappy because you couldn't pick Amber up from the hospital when she was leaving?"
Jared's eyes twinkled. He didn't answer.
Seeing that, Logan knew that his guess was accurate, feeling a bit complacent.
He could figure it out so easily.
Logan raised his chin proudly. The next second, however, he put his complacence away.
After all, his brother hadn't recovered. Logan couldn't have the heart to show off in front of him.
"Jared, please be happy. Let me tell you some good news." Logan rolled his eyes. "Amber came to see you yesterday."lightnoveldaily.com
