Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 645 More Respected
She asked him to pick her up.
Jared's pupils widened slightly, and his back straightened up. And the smile on his face became bigger and bigger.
It was the first time that she asked him to do something for her.
This showed that she was more and more dependent on him and she felt closer to him. She was gradually accepting this change of relationship and treating him as a boyfriend. "OK, I'll come over this afternoon." This time, instead of typing, Jared sent a voice note.
He felt that words could not show his inner joy and excitement at the moment.
On the other end of the phone, Amber turned on the voice. Listening to his deep and sweet voice, the tip of his ear turned red.
Did he deliberately lower his voice?
Amber touched the tip of her ear and clicked the voice again.
His pleasant voice sounded again, which made her ears numb.
At the same time, she recognized something else.
He was joyful.
Why would he be so happy after she asked him to pick her up?
Amber curled her lips, smiling, and then typed with both hands. "OK, call me or send a message in the afternoon. I'm going to a meeting now."
After sending it, she put away her phone, took a deep breath, calmed her restless heart stirred by his voice, picked up her laptop again, and walked out of the office. "Miss Reed." Sheila was standing outside, her hand in the air. She was about to knock on the door.
Amber happened to be walking out at the same moment.
Seeing Amber, Sheila took back her hand and said, "I was about to call you."
"Sorry, I was in the middle of something." Amber smiled apologetically, then asked, "Is everyone here?"
"Yes, so I came here to remind you."
"Okay, I see. Let's go."
Amber closed the door and walked to the elevator.
Sheila followed closely behind her.
As soon as they entered the conference room, all eyes instantly flocked to Amber.
Some were excited, and some were happy.
Some were complicated and some were worried.
Those who were excited and happy were Amber's supporters. And the other group was Bernardo's people.
Amber knew why they were looking at her like this. It must be for the news earlier.
Her supporters were happy that Amber and Jared were together again because it meant that they would have the support of the Farrell Group.
It was exactly for the same reason that Bernardo's people were anxious.
Because they know that she has always been very dissatisfied with them. She couldn't kick them all out of the company, because no one could take their place for a moment. Otherwise, she wouldn't tolerate them supporting Bernardo in front of her and making trouble for her.
But if Amber was with Jared again, she wouldn't need to worry about anything.
After all, there were a lot of talents in the Farrell Group. It couldn't be easier to find some replacements.
That was why they were so worried.
Even Bernardo put away his arrogance at the moment. He looked at Amber with a complicated expression. It was less hostile.
He had been suppressing Amber with his identity in Goldstone Co.
But now, because of Jared, he no longer dared to do so.
In fact, he had lost to Amber after she became the chairwoman and took away all the management rights from him. He didn't dare to act against her openly but he was always planning to chase her off power with unjustified measures.
But unexpectedly, before that could happen, Amber got back together with Jared.
Bernardo couldn't do anything.
Before he even started, Jared would punish him.
He knew how protective Jared was.
"I'm sorry for being late and keeping you waiting." Amber glanced at all the people in the conference room, roughly guessed what these people were thinking. She smiled, and then sat down. People shook their heads and waved their hands again and again. "No, Miss Reed, you are not late, we came too early."
"Yeah, we didn't wait for long."
"Really? Thank you for your understanding." Amber picked up the tea in front of her, and after taking a sip, she replied with a half-smile.
Bernardo's people were such snobs. They could change so fast.
If it happened in the past, they would have mocked her for being late, no matter if she was the chairwoman.
But now, her being late became an honor for them.
Sure enough, people's attitudes toward someone depend on the person's position.
She didn't think she could rely on Jared for that.
"Miss Reed." At this moment, a high-level executive suddenly looked at Amber excitedly and asked, "Is everything on the Internet true? Are you together with Mr. Farrell again?" The person who asked the question was Amber's supporter.
But everybody wanted to know the answer.
Amber put down the teacup and calmly replied, "Soon."
Just one word explained everything.
People didn't understand what did Amber mean by saying "soon". But since she didn't deny it, it meant that it was true.
For a moment, the whole conference room was in an uproar.
Amber's supporters became more and more excited.
Bernardo's supporters became gloomy.
Especially Bernardo. His expression looked ugly at the moment.
Although he knew it might be true, hearing it from Amber was not easy for him.
Because now, there was no way to get back the management right from Amber again.
After all, with Jared's support, Amber's prestige will only be higher. Her control of Goldstone Co. would only be stronger.
As for him, he would feel grateful if Jared didn't hate him.
Bernardo was seriously scared that Jared would hate him. Because he had been against Amber openly.
He was afraid that Jared would take avenge.
Amber had been observing Bernardo's action through the corner of her eyes.
She felt pleased when she saw that Bernardo seemed to be ten years older all of a sudden.
She knew that Bernardo and his supporters were afraid that she will use Jared's power to drive them away.
But they seemed to think too much. Because she didn't have such intention.
First of all, she didn't want to trouble Jared. Even though she and Jared were couples, she wouldn't rely on him to achieve her own goal. If she wanted to drive them away, she would do it by herself.
So now they were thinking too much. Although they were at odds with her, they were capable of their work. So, she will keep them before she trained her people well enough to take their positions. Before that, however, she can borrow Jared's authority a little to cut down their salary package.
She couldn't pay too much for people who acted against her.
"Okay, now you know everything you wanted to know. We'll talk about the rest later. Let's start the meeting now." Amber patted the table, indicating everyone to calm down.
People naturally have no objection. They soon quieted down.
The meeting officially started. It didn't come to an end until noon.
Amber returned to her office. Just as she pushed the door open, she saw someone sitting in her position.
Looking at the man, Amber was stunned for a moment. Then she asked in surprise. "Why are you here?"
