Chapter 42 You Find a Random Guy to Sleep with Last Night?
When Amber woke up in the morning, she was still a little hungover from the aftermath. She had a
slight headache.
She rubbed her temples and sat up from the bed. The quilts slipped off her. Soon, she felt
cold. When she looked down, she realized she was wearing a slip dress!
“What’s going on here?”
As Amber was about to lift the quilts and get out of bed, she glanced over her shoulder and saw a man
on her pillow, bare–chested and asleep. His hair was streaked across his forehead. His features were
so handsome and gorgeous that she stared in awe and was speechless for a long time.
She seemed to have drunk too much last night and felt dizzy and sleepy, but she thought she
heard Jared’s voice faintly….
Did she get so provocative last night that she found a random man to have sex with?
The thought of her sleeping with a strange guy made Amber unable to take a second look at the man
on her pillow. She got her clothes out of the chair and got dressed. When she tried to get her purse to
leave some money, she searched around but couldn’t find her handbag.
When she reached for a sticky note to leave her number, she found a number written on it.
She didn’t know if the man had left the number in case she woke up early and ran away.
Amber tore up the sticky note and escaped from the room.
Half an hour later, Amber went home, showered, and took a taxi to the office. She hadn’t quite.
recovered and was still in a state of shock from having sex with someone else.
“Miss Reed is here!”
Amber had just gotten out of the cab and was barely on her feet when a crowd of reporters. rushed
towards her from all directions and surrounded her. The flashing lights were pointed at
her face.
“Miss Reed, who is the man in that audio file?”
“That voice seems different from the voice of the male model named Jeremy before, doesn’t it? Please
explain!”
“Miss Reed, did you come to Goldstone Co. for work or because your position as vice
president facilitates you and allows you to hook up with men?”
One by one, the reporters bombarded Amber with sharp questions.
Although she didn’t know what audio file the reporters were talking about, Amber quickly held her face
and didn’t let them catch a different look. At the same time, she pushed them and tried
to get out of the crowd.
“Excuse me. Please make way!”
“Miss Reed, you’re afraid to answer the question. You’re not feeling guilty, aren’t you?” A
reporter asked her. “I heard that your divorce from Mr. Farrell was also due to your indiscreet about
your private life?”
At that moment, Cole squeezed in through the crowd of reporters like a knight in armor to
hold Amber and scolded the reporter, “You said it was a rumor, so could it be true? I also heard
that you are gay. Are you?” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
The reporter’s face turned blue at Cole’s rebuke.
Cole rolled his eyes at him. He pushed away the microphones that were crowding towards Amber and
said, “The male voice on the audio file is mine. If you don’t believe me, you can compare that voice to
mine.”
“Amber is my girlfriend. We’re dating. She’s the one who’s keeping a low profile and doesn’t want to go
public with our relationship. As for you guys saying she’s dating Jeremy, that’s all bullshit! We’re all
friends with Jeremy, so what’s wrong with us having dinner together as
friends?”
“Also, my girlfriend and Mr. Farrell are divorced. As for the affair…” Cole grunted, “How about you guys
ask Mr. Farrell? He was in the hospital every day taking care of another woman before he was even
married. So what did he mean exactly?”
“All right. That’s it. I’ve said what I need to say. Please be dismissed!” Cole pushed the reporters away
and squeezed out of the crowd.
“My girlfriend is very vulnerable. Don’t scare her. And you won’t get any news from her. I heard Mr.
Farrell is getting remarried. Why don’t you guys follow up on the news about Mr. Farrell? It’ll be easier
for you to get a bonus by gossiping about him.”
Amber was speechless.
Cole pushed his way through the crowd, and he did so with his feet. Then, he quickly grabbed Amber
and stepped into the Goldstone Co.
Amber turned her head and looked at the reporters outside and then gave Cole a thumbs up, “You’re
really awesome. You didn’t eat at my home in vain when you were a kid.”
After her divorce from Jeremy, if Cole hadn’t helped her so much, she figured she’d be over.
“We’ve been together for over twenty years, but you just realized I’m so awesome?” Cole grunted. After
he held her into the elevator and pressed the floor button, he looked at Amber with. a critical gaze, “You
went out last night and didn’t come back. Where have you been? And you didn’t bring your handbag?”
Cole questioned, “Did you go and find a random guy to have sex with you?”
When she heard him say that, Amber remembered the shocking scene she had seen when
she woke up that morning. She suddenly felt guilty…
“I wasn’t feeling well last night. I saw you guys having fun so I didn’t interrupt you guys. Then, I
went back early.” Amber said without her face turning red. Soon, she changed the subject,
“What’s the story about the audio file the reporter mentioned?”
Cole frowned. He fished out his phone and cursed, “Someone put a bug in the booth last
night.”
He opened the audio file and played it back to Amber.
The audio file was about Cole teasing Amber in the booth last night. Later, Amber explains
this to Stella. But the audio file was intentionally edited, and some flirtatious sounds of men and women
were added. The audio made people’s imagination go uncontrollably wild.
“Someone edited the ordinary conversation into this. That person is also quite deliberate.” Amber
sneered. “Can you check out the surveillance camera to find out who did it?”
“No. It’s too difficult.” Cole shook his head and sighed, “Several waiters went in and out of the room
yesterday, so I don’t know who did it. If I question them one by one, I don’t think I’d be able to find out
anything.”
Amber was also clear. Her face turned a little gloomy.
However, for the mastermind behind the public opinion, she had a clear suspect in her heart. And that
person would be Makenna.
She had just divorced Jared. And she had few friends in the modeling industry, so almost no
one had a grudge against her.
However, Makenna had always had a problem with her. And last night, Cole insulted Makenna a lot in
the booth. Therefore, Makenna had a motive to strike at her.
She just had no proof that Makenna had found someone to do it.
As Amber froze, Cole hadn’t missed every subtle expression on her face. He was keenly aware
that she looked a little off. “Did you really not go and sleep with some random guy last night?”
“I told you I didn’t.” Amber rolled her eyes and tried to keep her composure. “No random guy is
as handsome as you!”
Cole paused for a few seconds, then looked Amber up and down and rubbed his chin, and
said, “I’d like to appease you by having sex with you, but babe, you’re too skinny. I like hot girls
with big tits and bigger asses.”
Amber felt speechless.
When the elevator opened, Amber took the lead and walked out. “If you have nothing to do, go back to
your own company. I don’t need your help here!”
“Baby, you’re heartless.” Cole followed and grabbed her by the shoulders.
“If it wasn’t for me, you could have been slandered hard by those reporters‘ questions. Now, you’re
done using me, so you don’t want me? You are my girlfriend. Even if my company goes bankrupt, it’s
still you who’s more important!”
The secretary Sheila Dawson just finished delivering the documents and heard Cole’s words
after she walked out of Amber’s office.
When she saw Cole hugging Amber intimately, she had an obvious look of surprise on her face. She
asked, “Miss Reed, are you two… really together?”
