Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 368

Jared bit his thin lips and put on a poker face to hide his emotion. He waved to Ben to ask him to knock on the door.

Ben understood and knocked the door.

The sound suddenly interrupted the conversation between Cole and Elias.

They turned back simultaneously to find Jared was standing there.

Elias was a little surprised, but apart from that there was no other emotion written on his face.

Cole's face, however, got sullen instantly, "Why are you here? Who let you in?"

Jared did not answer and asked Ben to push him in.

Cole shouted immediately, "Hey, I didn't allow you to get in. What a gentleman you are!"

"It's Amber's room, not yours, I mind you." Jared had a cold glimpse at him.

Angry as Cole was, he was unable to deny. So, he only sniffed, "You dared to come only because my honey is still in coma. If she is awake, she would definitely not let you in."

Jared frowned and did not say a word.

In Jared's eyes, if he started a quarrel with Cole, Cole would be even more aggressive.

So, he'd better ignore him.

Seeing Jared remained silent, Cole sneered, "I would take your silence for you agree what I said."

Jared fixed his eyes on Amber as if he didn't hear what Cole said. With his hand clenching the arms of the wheelchair, he said, "What happened to Amber?"

He turned to look at Elias.

Elias was an onlooker.

He was enjoying the fight between the two. Yet it had never occurred to him that Jared would finish the fight all of a sudden and turn to ask him.

But as a friend, he would answer his question seriously.

Elias pushed his glasses up his nose, "She got hit on the back of her head. Now she is suffering a concussion. And a bit of flesh was removed from her wrist."

When he got out of the operating room, the chief of the hospital Amber was in informed him that Cole brought in a patient named Amber. That's when he knew the blood on Cole was Amber's. Then he also checked the recording of Amber in the operating room, because when he saw Amber in person, she was already bandaged. He couldn't just unwrap it to have a check.

He knew the attacker would knock Amber on the back side of head to stun her.

But he could not understand why he would cut a piece of skin off her wrist.

If the attacker wanted to rob Amber or do something else, he didn't have to cut her wrist. And the cut on Amber's arm was exactly where her red mole was.

The recording told him that the red mole was completely removed. That must be the attacker's purpose.

"What? She was attacked? By who?" Jared instantly stood up with his hands clenched into fists.

Cole was surprised, "Damn, you are not crippled!"

Jared threw him a fierce glance before he turned to Elias.

Elias shook his head, "I have no idea. You should ask Cole. He's working on it."

"Then what's the result?" Jared fixed his urgent eyes on Cole.

Cole said coldly, "Why should I tell you? It's between me and Amber, none of your business!"

Anger was written all over Jared's face.

Cole stared at him cautiously, "What? You're pissed? It's of no use..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by a child's sound, "I can tell you, Mr. Farrell! Mr. Lyon hasn't found the bad guy who hurt Auntie yet!"

"Jayden..." Cole stared at Jayden who had was sitting on a sofa nearby.

What a little betrayer!

Jared noticed his presence and surprise flashed in his eyes.

Why was Jayden here?

And he had failed to notice that.

But as he hadn't moved his eyes from Amber since he came in, it was quite natural for him to neglect Jayden's presence.

"Jayden, are you sure he hasn't found the attacker?" Jared turned to Jayden and said in a softer voice.

Jayden nodded, "I'm sure. I've been with Cole since the accident."

"I think you need a spanking," Cole walked over to Jayden.

Jayden quickly jumped off the sofa and ran to Jared. He hid behind Jared with his head poked out, "Don't blame me, Mr. Lyon. I know Mr. Farrell. He is a powerful man. You've been searching the bad guy for a whole night with the police. But you didn't find him. So, I think if it was Mr. Farrell who work on it, it will be faster."

Cole twitched his mouth. For him, the boy's words were quite offensive.

But he had to admit that Jayden had it right.

Jared was the owner of the Farrell Group, a leading player in Olkmore. Cole was definitely not as powerful as he was.

Much as he hated Jared, he should make a compromise for the sake of his honey. Now, the most important thing was to find the bastard.

Seeing how embarrassed Cole was and how Jayden respected him, Jared smiled faintly and the sense of coldness around him began to fade.

He sat back to his wheelchair and turned away to look at Ben, "Let's get started. We must find that guy!"

"Copy that!" Ben nodded and went out to give some phone calls to assign his men with this task.

He could not do it himself for Mr. Farrell was still here.

Staring at Ben who was working outside the wardroom then at Jared who was opposite to him, Cole twitched his mouth, "Then let's see when you could find that guy. Maybe you would fail too. Then it would be extremely embarrassing."

Jared was still ignoring him. With his eyes fixed on Amber, he was seized by concern and agony.

In the Gardner's Mansion.

Carrying with a black plastic bag, Makayla was walking downstairs.

Trenton was about to go out. Seeing the bag in Makayla's hand, he asked confusedly, "What's in that bag, Makayla?"

Makayla's eyes tickled, "Some clothes I took from my old house. Now I want to throw them away."

Trenton nodded, "You should've done it earlier. They're nothing but trash. You are my daughter. When you were born, I promised that I would give you the best I could offer. You'll live a life with no worries. From now on, all the things you have will be of the best quality. I will buy you whatever you like."

Hearing those, Makayla said delightedly, "Thank you, daddy."

Yet, she was possessed by envy.

So, Ms. Reed was born with such an enviable promise.

But she had never enjoyed the life Trenton promised her for a single day.

But even if Ms. Reed didn't receive the love from Trenton Gardner, she did enjoy a luxurious life after she was adopted by the Reed's.

Judy Lashley didn't understand why someone would be born with everything and someone born without enough to eat or wear.

But now she was Makayla Gardner, the daughter of Trenton Gardner. She would hold on to what she had now and no one could take it away.

A sense of cruelty flashed in Makayla's eyes. Then she calmed down and noticed that Trenton was putting his suit on, "Are you going to go out, daddy?"

"Yeah. I'm going to Trident," replied Trenton.

He needed to have a debate with Stiller in Trident to secure his position as the chairman of the board.

The voting meeting would be held tomorrow. He still got a chance.

"I'll go with you to throw the trash, daddy." Makayla lifted the bag in her hand.
