Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 626 Elias Was on Her Side
Ben felt the gentle breeze and rubbed his nose as the door slammed.
Looked like Mr. Farrell didn't plan to invite him in.
It was fine with Ben. Anyway, he was tired of their PDA already.
Ben turned towards the elevator after a casual shrug.
Jared walked into the living room with two bags.
Amber came out of the room as he put the things down.
She had washed and dressed up. Looking at the things on the dining table, she asked curiously, "What is that?"
"Breakfast," Jared pointed to one of them and replied, "I ask Ben to bring us these."
Amber nodded in response.
Jared looked at her. "Can I use your room?"
"What?" Amber blinked in confusion.
Jared lifted the other bag. "Get changed."
Amber pouted as her eyes drifted to the bag. "Didn't you sneak into my room before? It's not like my permission really matters."
Jared heard the sarcasm in her voice. He cleared his throat, "How about I promise no more sneaking next time?"
He would just walk in fair and square!
"Is there still a next time?" Amber glared.
Jared smirked in return.
He knew it was time to stop, and otherwise, he would piss Amber off.
Then Amber said with a sigh. "Forget it. Hurry up."
She waved him off to change.
Jared nodded as he walked toward her room.
Soon, he came out with a new outfit. Amber had set the table.
Jared went to grab a seat and had breakfast with her.
Halfway through breakfast, Amber's phone rang.
Amber put down her chopsticks and picked up her phone.
Jared stared at her phone and asked, "Who is it?"
"Elias," Amber mumbled after she swallowed the thing in her mouth.
Jared put his guard down.
Elias wouldn't be a problem.
Anyway, he wasn't one of Amber's pursuers.
Jared continued on with his food.
Amber put her phone to her ear and answered the call. "Dr. Lansdale."
On the other end of the phone, Elias teased, "I thought this would be Jared."
Amber looked up at Jared. "He's having breakfast."
Elias raised his eyebrows. "Oh, he's still at your place."
"Yes..." Amber replied.
Elias took off the glasses on his nose bridge to wipe them with a cloth and said through the phone speaker, "Looks like Jared didn't lie last night. You guys are really going to get back together." Amber pulled a tight-lipped smile. "Pretty much. He's done a lot for me, and I can see his sincerity, so... I'd like to give him a chance."
Jared put down his chopsticks and studied his face across the table. His voice was soft. "Amber, thank you."
Thank you for forgiving me.
Amber understood him. She took her phone a little further and said, "You should thank the hypnosis. Otherwise, not a chance."
Jared chuckled. "Yeah, as lucky as me."
Amber looked away and put the phone back into her ear.
On the other side of the line, Elias said, "Alright, then you have my wish. Of course, tell me if he mistreats you in the future. I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve. I promise I can make him disappear from this world."
Amber shivered with fear, but Elias was sweet.
He was on her side.
"Thank you, Dr. Lansdale." Amber chuckled.
She wouldn't leave Jared to Elias even if he really betrayed her because there would be a crime then.
But she should be thankful for Elias.
Jared asked as he heard Amber thank Elias, "What did he say?"
Amber smiled meaningfully at him. "Trust me, you don't want to know."
There was a lot of dark talk about him.
He would never want to hear that.
Jared narrowed his eyes at Amber's flippancy as if he was reading a difficult book.
Amber ignored him and went on with Elias. She asked seriously, "Oh, right, Dr. Lansdale, did Braylee wake up?"
Otherwise, she couldn't think there was any reason for this call.
Elias never contacted her just for catching up.
Elias put his clean glasses back on. "Yeah, she's awake. She yelled your name in the ward. Well, it's too noisy, so I put her to sleep again." Amber's lips twitched involuntarily.
Typical Elias!
But nice job!
"Sorry to trouble you," Amber said embarrassedly.
Sure was.
Braylee was big trouble to Elias.
"Not at all, but I owe you a thank you." A glint of wisdom flashed across Elias's glasses.
Amber raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Oh? Why?"
"Well, I tranquilized her."
Amber nodded. "Yes?"
Elias laughed sinisterly, "That was a new formula developed by our hospital's lab. It only passes the clinical trial for animals, and it's short of volunteers. Patients in the hospital refuse to take the risk. Well, you know, unknown side effects. So, I just tested it on Braylee. I still don't know the side effects, but it looks positive. At least she's still alive."
Amber's lips trembled involuntarily.
Elias treated Braylee as an experiment.
Nothing mattered only if she was alive.
Braylee brutally murdered her father, so it was time for her to make a contribution to the medical industry.
"Oh, right, did Jared tell you everything last night?" Elias fidgeted with his scalpel.
Amber nodded and glanced at Jared. "He did."
Jared put a dumpling on Amber's plate.
He met Amber's eyes and probably guessed Elias mentioned him on the phone.
"We can't retrieve her eggs. So, do you still plan to impregnate her?" Elias swiveled the scalpel in his hand.
Amber pursed her red lips and said seriously, "Of course, I want her to leave a child for the Reed family."
"Why can't you do it?" Elias was puzzled, "You can have a baby, too. It's just two years late. After that, you can have Jared's baby and the descendant of the Reed family. So, why do you have to let Braylee have the baby?"
'You can have Jared's baby' stabbed her heart as if a knife.
It reminded her of the baby she had lost earlier.
At that time, her depression after losing the baby didn't last two days because she hadn't fallen in love with Jared, and it was just a fetus.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
