Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber)

Chapter 82 Do You Not Like Me Anymore?

Makenna lowered her eyelids and tried to cover the bleak look in her eyes. She answered anxiously,

"That wasn't my plan. Ms. Garland, you misunderstood. I…"

"Shut up!" Gigi scoffed and interrupted her, "I'll remember what you did, Makenna. We're not friends

anymore from now on. I won't let you go and you'll pay for this!"

Gigi then broke her phone and the call got hung up.

Makenna stared at her phone and pursed her pale lips.

She had already seen the news about Garland family this morning and was ready for Gigi to blame this

on her.

But she didn't think that Gigi would hate her this much and insisted that she would take revenge.

She clenched her fist and started to feel worried.

Even though the Garland family had lost some power, they were still part of the officialdom. If they

wanted to take down the Gardner family, they probably could still manage it. Hence, Makenna thought

that she needed to do something.

She thought about it and bit her lips. She then pinched her arms harshly and tears started to flow. She

grabbed her bag and walked out of the room. She told her driver to drive her to the Farrell Group.

The people in the Farrell Group recognized her and didn't stop her from going in.

Soon, Makenna arrived on the top floor. She pushed the door and entered Jared's office.

"Jared…" Makenna walked into the room with tears in her eyes. She sobbed and called out his name.

Jared and Hayden were discussing some business matters. They were at an important part when

Makenna suddenly walked in. They stopped their conversation.

"Hey, Ms. Gardner, why are you here?" Hayden touched his chin and jeered at Makenna.

Makenna ignored him and looked at Jared with watery eyes.

Jared put down the documents in his hands and stood up. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong,

Makenna?"

Makenna pursed her lips, ran towards him and ran into his arms.

Jared's arms were in the air for a bit before he finally put it down. He hugged her by the shoulder and

patted her back softly.

"Give us a moment," he said to Hayden.

Hayden shrugged and glanced at Makenna discerningly. He then turned around and left.

Makenna and Jared were left alone in the office.

Makenna took a step backwards, looked up and said while looking wronged, "Jared, Ms. Garland's

family got into trouble and she's blaming me for it. She said that she wouldn't let me off the hook, but…

But I wasn't the one who told her to mess with Ms. Reed. I don't understand why she's blaming me for

this."

"Mess with Amber?" Jared squinted his eyes, "What's going on?"

Makenna was a bit pissed.

She said so much.

But the first thing he asked about was Amber!

Even though that was what she was thinking about, she didn't dare to express her thoughts. She

sobbed, "Yesterday, Ms. Garland came to the hospital to visit me. She asked me why I'm hospitalized,

so I told her that I was kidnapped by someone who had a crush on Ms. Reed. She then said that she

would help me take revenge on Ms. Reed. I tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen. And now she is

blaming me, saying that what happened to her and her family is all my fault…"

She acted like she was extremely wronged. She started to cry as she talked.

Jared felt heartbroken seeing how she was crying so sadly. He lifted her head and dried her tears with

tissues, "It's alright, don't cry."

"Jared, Ms. Garland said that she would make me pay for this. What should I do? I'm scared," said

Makenna as she looked at Jared with her eyes all red.

Jared pursed his thin lips wintrily, "Don't worry, I won't let her do that."

"Alright, I believe you, Jared." Makenna sniffled and laid her head on her chest, acting like all she

needed was him.

But she was smiling when he wasn't looking. There was a look of content in her eyes.

If Jared protected her, then Gigi couldn't do anything to her.

The Farrell family was powerful, not just in the business world.

"You shouldn't be afraid anymore." Jared used his thumb to wipe away the tears in the corner of her

eyes.

Makenna shook her head, "Not anymore. Jared, you're the best.

"You're my fiancée, of course, I'll protect you. I told you six years ago when we first met that I would

protect you forever. Did you forget about that?" said Jared as he stared at her gently.

Makenna stopped sobbing and nodded as she smiled, "Of course, I didn't know that you still

remembered that."

"I won't forget anything that has to do with you. I remember everything in my heart," said Jared as he

tapped his temple.

Makenna's eyes flickered and she smiled unnaturally, "Those things are already in the past. I changed

a lot these years. I hope that you'll forget about me from back then."

"Forget? Why?" Jared frowned.

Makenna hugged him by the neck, "Yeah. Well, do you not like the me right now/"

Jared looked at her hopeful eyes, his thin lips trembled, "I do."

"Jared, you're the best!" Makenna tipped her toes and pecked him on the cheek. She then started at

his lips and slowly inched closer.

Jared didn't duck, he lowered his head as well.

But when their lips were about to touch, he suddenly thought about Amber.

He then pushed Makenna away.

Makenna was dumbfounded. She looked at him dazedly and her eyes turned red, "Jared, you rejected

me once again."

Jared knew that his action hurt her. He looked down apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Makenna. It's

because we're still in the office…"

"Do you not like me anymore?" asked Makenna as she bit her lips.

Jared looked at her, "No, why would you think like that?"

"Is that not the case?" Tears filled Makenna's eyes as she said, "Are you disgusted with me because I

was touched by other guys before? Is that why you always push me away?"

"No."

"Then why do you push me away? Tell me!" Makenna looked at him in dismay.

Jared rubbed his temple and didn't know what to say.

At this moment, Ben opened the door and came in, "Mr. Farrell, everyone is ready for the meeting.

Would you be coming over soon?"

Jared let out a sigh of relief because Ben interrupted at a good time, "I'll head over right now."

"Alright," answered Ben and then he closed the door.

Jared put his hand on Makenna's shoulder, "Makenna, I have to attend this meeting. We'll talk about

this later, alright?"

"Okay." Makenna nodded unhappily.

Jared then left the room at ease.

Makenna stared at him as he left and slowly clenched her fist.

This was his third time pushing her away. The third time.

She didn't know why he was rejecting her, but this couldn't go on. He said that he loved her, but he

wouldn't touch her. This made her feel insecure.

She needed to find a chance and do the deed with him. She could only fully keep him by her side this

way.

On the way to the meeting room, Jared suddenly said to Ben who was walking behind him, "Go to the Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

financial department to get a bonus later."

"Huh?" Ben was puzzled.

Why was Jared giving him a bonus out of the blue?

Jared didn't elaborate, but simply continued, "Also, buy some health products that are good for leg

injuries. Send them to Amber."

Ben realized that he was talking about the lift accident from yesterday. He nodded and replied,

"Understood."

Jared didn't say anything anymore. He pushed the door to the meeting room and went in.

Ben stood outside and called someone to go to the drugstore.

Soon, Amber got a call from the front desk, "Ms. Reed, someone sent you something. Should I bring

them up?"

Amber just saw the bank managers off and was walking out of the meeting room, "What is it?"
