Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 343
Although Jared needed to recover soon, he didn't like the bone soup at all.
However, he didn't stop Logan for the sake that Logan cared about him.
Meanwhile, Jared heard footsteps outside his ward.
He looked up, only to find that Ben was standing outside the ICU and waving at him.
Jared nodded slightly to hint at him to come in.
Ben understood, pushed the door open, and entered. "Hi, Mr. Farrell."
Jared hummed and asked, "How's the company going when I was in a coma."
"Everything is fine. I told the board of directors you had gone abroad for something urgent. Hence, no one else knows you are in the hospital besides our team. Hence, nothing happened to our stock market," Ben answered while standing next to the bed.
Jared raised his hand to pinch between his eyebrows. "Good job. Send the urgent files to me this afternoon."
"But, Mr. Farrell, you are still..."
"It's alright." Jared slightly closed his eyes and said in a tired tone, "I can't just stay in the hospital doing nothing."
Since he insisted, Ben couldn't do anything but nod in agreement. "All right. I got it. Here's another thing."
"What is it?" Jared looked at him.
Ben looked solemn. "It's about the investigation on how Makenna Gardner got to know Ms. Reed had been pregnant. I've found everything. The whole matter was just a conspiracy."
"A conspiracy?" Jared squinted.
Ben nodded and continued, "Since Makenna knew Ms. Reed had been pregnant with your baby, I guess she must have witnessed the night three months ago. Hence, I went to the nightclub in person and looked for clues for that night. Then I found a conspiracy."
Ben looked more solemn when talking about that. "It was Cole Lyon's birthday that day. Ms. Reed and her friends were celebrating it for him. Makenna and her friends were also in that nightclub. She bribed someone to put the drug in Ms. Reed's drink. The person who drugged Ms. Reed was a waiter in that nightclub."
"What?" Jared's eye pupils shrank.
Hence, Amber didn't get drunk simply that night, but she was drugged.
Jared realized that it made sense. If Amber was simply drunk, she wouldn't be that excited. However, he didn't notice anything wrong at that time.
"Where is that waiter now?" Jared emanated a cold aura.
Ben answered, "I've locked up the waiter. When I went to look into the matter of that night, I noticed his abnormality, so I captured and questioned. Only then did I find Makenna asked him to drug Ms. Reed and find Ms. Reed a man."
"A man?" Jared gritted his teeth, going ballistic.
He couldn't believe that Makenna had planned to find a man to rape Amber even three months ago.
"Yes," Ben answered, pushing up his glasses. "Makenna asked the waiter to find Ms. Reed a man and let him encounter her. Then the man would take Ms. Reed to his room and shoot her videos. However, somehow, the man was late that night, so he didn't meet Ms. Reed as they planned. Hence, when I finally found the surveillance video, I saw it was you who encountered Ms. Reed instead."
After a pause, he added, "Also, when you and Ms. Reed entered the room, Makenna's friend, Chloe Mendez, took the photos. Then she called Makenna, so the latter knew Ms. Reed hadn't slept with the man found by her but you. That was why she knew you were the baby in Ms. Reed's belly."
"I see." Jared pressed his lips tightly, clenching his fists hard.
He thanked God as that man was late. Otherwise, Amber would have been...
Jared didn't continue imagining what would happen next, and he couldn't.
He looked extremely annoyed and said, "Find out that man!"
"I've asked my men to capture him. He'll be brought to Olkmore City tomorrow," answered Ben immediately.
Then, Ben seemed to recall something else. Looking at Jared, he added, "Besides, the surveillance video showed that in the following morning, shortly after you came out of the room, that man entered the room."
"What did you say?" Jared's voice was raised suddenly. He looked highly stern. "Did he enter the room?"
He wondered what that man had done to Amber after entering the room.
Thinking of that, Jared trembled in anger.
Ben seemed to read his mind. In a hurry, he said, "Please don't worry, Mr. Farrell. I saw Ms. Reed leave the room in a panic just ten minutes after the man had entered there. Hence, he couldn't do anything to her. But I don't know if he has taken Ms. Reed's photos or videos. We'll know after the man is taken here tomorrow."
Upon hearing his words, Jared breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that he hadn't done anything to Amber.
As for the photos and videos.
..
If that man had the guts to take them, Jared would chop his hands.
"What about Hayden?" Jared narrowed his eyes and asked, "It's his nightclub. Since you've taken away his employee, he must have received the news, right?"
The next day after that night, he asked Hayden to clean up the surveillance video because he was worried that Amber would look into the video after waking up. In that case, she would find it was him.
Back then, Hayden told him that he had already erased the surveillance video. Jared wondered why Hayden didn't tell him a man entered Amber's room after he had left.
"Mr. Cohen did receive the news. He's still on a business trip in South Riverside and won't come back to town until this evening. He said he would come over to ask you what on earth had happened then," Ben answered, shrugging.
Jared gritted his teeth and didn't speak. He took over his phone from the nightstand and dialed Amber's number.
Amber was discussing work with Cole. When she heard the ringing tone, she turned to check the caller ID and saw it was Jared. She blinked in surprise.
It seemed Jared had woken up.
However, he called her right after he had woken up. Amber wondered why.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Amber hung up the phone.
Seeing that, Cole whistled happily. "Well done, Babe!"
Amber smiled in silence.
When she lowered her head to continue the discussion, her phone rang again. However, she received a message this time.
Jared messaged her with the name "Z".
It seemed he didn't want to hide it anymore after Amber had known he was "Z".
"Let me check what he had sent to you." Before Amber decided to read the message, Cole grabbed her phone.
Amber couldn't stop him, so she let him do it.
"What did he mean?" Cole frowned suddenly. "What did he mean by it was his fault for that night? He said there was something more about it. What's this?."
Cole didn't understand, but Amber did.
"Give it to me." She reached out to grab the phone, looking at the screen thoughtfully.
Then she saw Jared's message: I'm sorry, Amber. It was my fault that night. You can hate me and blame me, but I need to tell you there's something more about it. You were not simply drunk. I'll send you a video clip later for more details.
"Babe?" Cole waved his hand in front of her when seeing her in a daze.
Amber was in a trance. She returned to her senses and asked, "What's wrong?"
"That's what I want to ask you. Why are you in a daze?" Cole asked.
Amber pressed her lips. "I'm thinking about something."
She wondered what on earth Jared meant.
What did he mean by something behind it?
Did anything else happen between her and Jared that night?lightnoveldaily.com
