Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 689 Failure
"I said that because Goldstone is a company of my family; because I am my father's real daughter. His only biological daughter!" Braylee said with a crazy smile on face, "But you, Amber Reed, are an illegitimate child of your mother. You don't even know who your father is! You are in no position to inherit my father's company!"
Both the two guards and Sheila was astounded by her words.
Though the guards did want to know whether Braylee Reed was talking the truth, they knew they were only ordinary staff of the company.
Curious about her words as they were, they needed to pretend to be uninterested in the story. Otherwise, they might lose their job.
But Sheila didn't have those worries as the guards. She took a step forward and glared at Braylee, "What are you talking about? You were lying!"
In fact, she knew Ms. Amber Reed was not her father's own daughter.
As Ms. Amber Reed's secretary, she had learned it from her.
So, she knew Ms. Amber Reed was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Reed, which was different from an illegitimate daughter.
Braylee Reed, who knew nothing about the story, was talking shit before them.
But Braylee didn't know what Sheila had in mind. She stared at Amber with a viperous smile on face, "I was lying? You can ask Amber to do a DNA test with me. If it turns out that she is not my own sister, then she is definitely an illegitimate daughter of her mother. Otherwise, why would father raise her up and let her inherit Goldstone? I, Hugo Reed's own daughter, should be the owner of Goldstone! Now I ask you to give me all your shares and get out of my company!"
Amber sneered and patted Braylee's face as if she was a fool, "You're right. I'm not my dad's own daughter. But I'm not an illegitimate daughter of my mother. If you want to use my identity to threaten me, then you would probably fail."
"I knew you won't admit your real identity." Braylee raised her head and said contemptuously.
Amber rubbed her fingers and said, "You are such a fool. Even if I was an illegitimate daughter, I was a member of my family if my father had accepted me as his daughter. You are in no position to order me to hand my shares to you."
"That's impossible!" Braylee's face changed and she screamed.
Before Amber said anything, Sheila had a glimpse at Braylee and said, "That's true, Ms. Braylee Reed. Our president had inherited Goldstone legally. You can consult a lawyer to ask about that." "How is that possible..." Braylee couldn't accept that fact.
"So, that's what you want to say to me?" Amber sneered, "And I remember you mentioned that Goldstone is a company of the Reed's. That was true six years ago, but now it is not a family business anymore now."
"Bullshit!" Braylee yelled, her face distorted from rage.
"She was right." Sheila pushed her glasses up her nose and said, "I think you also know that our president had pledged 40% of her shares. From that moment, Goldstone was not a family company of the Reed's but a collectively-owned company."
"She won't understand, Sheila. Let's put it simple to her," Amber said while giving a glimpse at Sheila.
Sheila nodded and continued, "Our president didn't inherit her shares from Mr. Hugo Reed. I think you had known it right after you entered our company. She purchased those shares from other shareholders with the help of her grandfather and Mr. Cole Lyon. It was not Mr. Reed's shares. So, even if she was not Mr. Reed's own daughter, she still doesn't need to give her shares to you."
"So, are we clear now?" Amber patted Braylee's face again, "It's impossible from the beginning that you want to rob my shares from me."
After hearing their words, Braylee was stunned. Confusion was written all over on her face and she couldn't help murmuring, "How... how is that possible? Why..."
When she got back from the hospital, she thought she wouldn't get failed this time.
She had even planned how to humiliate Amber after she got the Amber's shares.
But she failed again!
"She went dumb?" Sheila whispered to Amber.
Amber took her hand off Braylee's face and returned to her desk and drew two pieces of wet tissue to rub her fingers carefully before she replied, "Because she didn't get what she wanted." "For me, she is stupid," Sheila said, "Even a child would do some research before getting here to ask those stupid questions. But she was so silly that she thought she would become the president." "You're right," Amber smiled and soon put on a poker face. Then she turned to the guards, "Get her out of my office."
The two guards nodded and got out with Braylee's arm in arms.
Sheila said after a while, "I should go with them and warn them not to talk too much."
Amber nodded.
After she left, Amber sat down again and heaved a sigh of relief.
What had just happened in this office had made her feel quite
But this time she knew how Braylee knew she was not her father's own daughter.
Braylee said she learned that in that hospital when she heard her kidney had matched Trenton's. And then she began to doubt whether Amber was Hugo Reed's own daughter or not. Obviously, Braylee had heard what she said to Judy Lashley in the hospital.
By then Braylee was also in that hospital.
What she didn't expect that Braylee would start to doubt her real identity after she learned Amber's kidney would match Trenton's. Amber didn't expect Braylee to be that smart. Recently, she had been wondering why her kidney would match Trenton's.
Elias said that it was quite hard for Trenton to find a suitable kidney for himself.
But her kidney happened to match Trenton's.
The whole thing was quite ridiculous given the open hostility between the Reed's and the Gardner's.
Amber sneered and took the broom at the corner to clean up the mess on floor.
She didn't think the fact that her kidney matched Trenton's could prove that she was Trenton's daughter.
After all, Trenton was a sworn enemy of her father 20 years ago. How could he adopt the daughter of his enemy?"
