Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 661 Lady Georgia Fainted
After Amber took the blanket, she unfolded it and covered Jared with it.
Besides, Amber asked Ben to turn on the heating in the study. Only then was she relieved.
Ben was relieved to see her being so considerate toward Jared.
Jared's dedication to Amber finally paid off.
Amber didn't know what Ben was thinking. She sat beside Jared and looked at him sideways.
Jared's face was very red because of the alcohol, but under his eyelids, it was blue and black. Obviously, he had been drinking all night without sleeping.
Fortunately, all he drank was some red wine. Otherwise, he would have been in the hospital or died.
Thinking of this, Amber couldn't help shivering.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Amber pulled herself together and took the phone out of her handbag.
It was from Georgia. She must want to know how Jared was going.
Amber answered it without hesitation. "Grandma."
"Amber, have you seen Jared?" On the other end of the phone, Georgia asked eagerly.
Amber nodded. "Yes."
"Well, that's great. How is he now? Did he self-harm?" Georgia clenched her cane and asked again. Amber looked down at Jared. "He was drunk, but he hasn't self-harmed."
"Really?" Georgia couldn't believe it.
After all, every time Jared was drinking, he resorted to self-harm if he couldn't drown his sorrows.
Therefore, hearing what Amber said, Georgia thought it was a little unbelievable.
"Yes." Amber nodded. "According to Ben, Jared got drunk before he could self-harm."
"This is impossible!" Georgia stood up.
Amber was shocked. "Grandma, what's the matter?"
Georgia asked with a strange look, "Amber, tell me what kind of alcohol Jared drank?"
"It's red wine," Amber answered without hesitation.
Ben's expression changed as he clenched his fists nervously.
Different from Amber, Georgia knew that Jared wouldn't get drunk with red wine.
Nonetheless, Jared was drunk, which would arouse Georgia's suspicions.
As expected, hearing Amber's answer, Georgia squeezed her phone. "This is impossible. Jared has a good alcohol tolerance, so he shouldn't be drunk with red wine. Amber, is Ben around you?" "Yes." Amber glanced at Ben.
Georgia sullenly said, "Give him the phone. I have something to ask him."
"Okay, wait a second." Amber handed the phone to Ben. "Ben, Grandma wants you to answer the phone."
Ben knew he couldn't hide the truth from Georgia anymore. After taking a deep breath, he took the phone with a forced smile. "Lady Georgia, what can I do for you."
Ben walked out of the study.
Amber looked at his back in confusion, wondering why he went out.
But Amber didn't think much about it. After finishing Jared's hair, she got up and went to the bathroom, ready to get some water and wipe his face.
On the balcony, Ben closed the balcony door before saying, "Lady Georgia, Mr. Farrell was indeed drunk with red wine."
"Ben Channing, stop lying to me!" On the other end of the phone, Georgia said with a long face, "Jared never gets drunk with red wine, so tell me whether he hides some spirits?" "No." Ben shook his head. "Lady Georgia, Mr. Farrell didn't buy any spirits."
"Then tell me why he gets drunk?" Georgia asked angrily.
Ben lowered his head, not knowing what to say.
He was hesitant whether he should tell the truth.
Would Georgia be greatly affected?
For a time, Ben was caught in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.
"Tell me the reason!" Georgia urged impatiently.
Ben sighed, and finally decided to tell the truth.
Anyway, Georgia would know it one day.
"Lady Georgia, you must be mentally prepared," Ben pulled himself together and said.
Georgia got serious, "Mentally prepared?"
"Yes!"
"What the hell happened? Why should I do that?" Georgia was puzzled, but she got a bad feeling and asked in a trembling voice, "Ben, tell me whether something is wrong with Jared?" "Yes." Ben nodded, "Mr. Farrell is suffering heart failure, so he got drunk much more easily than before."
It suddenly became silent on the other end of the phone, accompanied by the sound of a cup breaking.
When Ben heard it, his face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly shouted, "Lady Georgia? What happened?"
Ben was afraid that Georgia fainted when she heard this.
If so, Ben would be mostly responsible for that.
Georgia was very old. What if she fainted and never woke up?
Ben didn't dare to think about it anymore. He grabbed the phone tightly with both hands, and continued to shout, "Lady Georgia?" There was finally a voice on the phone, but it was Mrs. Murphy's.
Mrs. Murphy helped Georgia up from the sofa, gently shook her, and shouted anxiously, "Lady Georgia, wake up! Please wake up!" Mrs. Murphy was about to cry, but Georgia's eyes remained closed.
Ben guessed what happened according to Mrs. Murphy.
Lady Georgia did pass out.
They were in trouble now!
With a tense face, Ben took the mobile phone from his ear and made an emergency call. He went back to the study, returned the mobile phone to Amber, and said eagerly, "Miss Reed, please take care of Mr. Farrell. I'm going to the villa."
Hearing this and seeing Ben's anxious look, Amber got nervous. "Is something wrong with Grandma?"
"Lady Georgia seems to have fainted."
"What?" Amber asked in a much louder voice, "Grandma faints? Why? What happened?"
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have told her the truth." Ben slapped himself reproachfully. "I've made a big mistake."
He shouldn't have taken chances. He had thought that it didn't matter if Georgia knew the truth. After all, she would know it sooner or later.
But now, Ben did regret it.
Not to mention whether something would go wrong with Georgia, Ben even didn't know how to explain it after Jared woke up.
"What the hell did you tell her?" Amber frowned and asked.
Ben shook his head. "Miss Reed, I can't tell that to you. Lady Georgia has fainted. What if you...? Forget it. I won't tell it to you. I'll rush over to see how Lady Georgia is going, so please take care of Mr. Farrell. Although Amber was worried about Georgia, Jared did keep her from going away, so she nodded. "Okay, just leave him to me. And you must take good care of Grandma. Call me if anything happened." "Yes, Miss Reed." After Ben finished speaking, he turned around and left quickly.
Amber looked at Jared, clenched Jared's hand, and whispered, "I don't know what happened to you. Even Grandma faints after she knows it!"
Jared remained drunk, so he didn't answer.
He was mired in a nightmare and couldn't get out of it.
Exactly, it was more of an experience than a nightmare.
