Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 866 It Was the Stockert Family
The man was surely happy to be coaxed. His thin lips smiled, and his chin raised unconsciously. Amber Reed shook her head with a grin when she saw his smug look.
Later, with the help of the man, she put on slippers, left the room, and went to the bathroom.
At first, she didn't want the man to help her, after all, she wasn't injured or disabled.
But he wanted to help her, she had no choice but to go with him.
By the time Amber finished washing up and came out of the bathroom, Jared had brought her breakfast out of the kitchen and placed it on the dining table. She walked over, and Jared pulled out the chair for her, and patted the back of the chair, "Sit down, babe."
Amber hummed, walked over, and sat down.
Then, there appeared an extra pair of chopsticks in front of her.
Amber looked at the chopsticks handed over by the man, raised her beautiful eyebrows, and then reached out and took the chopsticks, "Thank you."
After she replied "Of course.", Jared sat down beside her, "Come on, babe. Start eating. It's all for you."
Amber looked at the very delicate breakfast in front of her, with a happy smile on her face.
Then a random thought came to her mind, she paused the chopsticks in her hand and asked, "Have you eaten?"
"I have." Jared put his elbows on the dining table and his head on his palms nodded slightly and replied, "I got up early and had a video conference in your study. I grabbed something to eat afterward." Amber nodded, "Okay. If you haven't had enough, join me and eat together."
"Are you going back to the Farrell Group today, babe?" Amber asked again after taking a bite of the crystal dumpling.
Jared shook his head slightly, "I've been busy in the past few days, and now it's finally the weekend, I want to enjoy the day off. But this is also the last day off before the new year."
After today, Jared would become busy again.
Things would get a little easier until this New Year was over, probably after the Lantern Festival.
Amber looked at the man with a hint of sympathy in her eyes, "There's nothing you can do about it. With great power comes greater responsibility, hang in there babe." She patted his shoulder gently.
Jared glanced sideways at her hand on his shoulder and chuckled, "Okay, let's finish eating, then go to the police station and see Alice."
Today Alice needed to hire a lawyer. Of course, they should send a lawyer over to handle the case.
Hearing that she was going to see Alice soon, Amber hummed with a serious expression, and at the same time started eating the food in her hand faster.
But it was Alice after all, Amber had to go meet her.
She didn't see her yesterday, so she had to meet her today no matter what.
Suddenly, a cell phone rang, breaking the atmosphere.
Jared frowned, then took out his phone, obviously it was his phone that was ringing.
Amber glanced at it and saw the caller ID on the screen. She took a sip of milk and said, "It's your assistant, Ben Channing. Pick up, babe."
Jared agreed softly, swiped his thumb on the screen, and answered the phone, "Any news?"
"Mr. Farrell." Ben's voice came from the phone. "Last night you asked me to investigate Alice's identity. I found some clues here."
"Fill me in." Jared's back straightened immediately.
He answered the phone without avoiding Amber, and even went straight to turn on the speaker.
So Amber heard what Ben said.
Hearing that Ben had found info about Alice's identity, she stopped caring about the breakfast in front of her, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and stared at the phone in Jared's hand. Ben nodded and shook his head, "I only found some clues, but I haven't found out what Alice's identity is."
Hearing such an answer, Jared frowned, obviously not satisfied with the result.
Amber was a little disappointed but found it understandable.
The people behind Alice had tried their best to fake Alice's identity, so it was challenging for others to check it out immediately.
It was good to be able to find some clues, though.
"What clue?" Jared asked, pursing his lips.
Ben's expression was serious, "I found out that Alice has something to do with the Stockert family in the Capital.”
"What did you say?" Jared's pupils shrank slightly, his breath plummeting, "The Stockert family?"
Amber Reed saw the man in an upset mood and first wondered what the Stockert family was all about.
But soon, she realized that the man his mother loved was from the Stockert family in the Capital.
Could it be that Alice was from the Stockert family?
Alice, the Stockert family...
Alice Stockert - it sounded possible.
However, the Stockert family didn't seem to have any daughters.
Even Amber, who didn't know much about the Capital circle, knew that there were only a few members in the family.
Because the Stockert family was famous for their sons - each generation in the family would only have one child, and it always was a son. How could such a magical family not be famous? Moreover, Connor Stockert, the master of the Stockert family of this generation, was the true love of Jared Farrell's mother. He had always loved Jared's mother and had never been married.
However, over twenty years ago, Jared's mother had committed suicide after learning that Connor Stockert was going to get married - Connor immediately called off the engagement. And he had been single and had had no children ever since.
If Alice was a member of the Stockert family, what did she have to do with Connor Stockert?
Was Alice Connor's daughter?
Amber looked at the man beside him with some concern.
She knew that Jared had always had mixed feelings about the Stockert family.
Connor Stockert was the man his mother loved and, more likely, the nemesis of his father's murder.
So when he heard the news about the Stockert family, his emotions naturally became very depressed. Amber reached her hand over and put it on Jared's other clenched fist, and patted it as silent comfort. Jared sensed Amber's concern - he looked startled, then turned to look at her.
Looking at her concerned eyes, Jared's eyes flashed, and he realized that his reaction just now had made her a little nervous.
He took a slight breath, then adjusted his state of mind. His tense body relaxed a little, his clenched fist was also loosened, and he held her hand in his palm, and squeezed it lightly, expressing that he was fine On the phone, Ben Channing didn't know what Jared was thinking at the moment. Ben nodded seriously, "Yes, the Stockert family. I went to Mr. Cohen and asked him to use his authority to check whether the authority of the census was used to help Alice tamper with her identity information. And he finally found that the deputy bureau in charge of the census had something to do with the Stockert family. I directly went to the deputy bureau with the evidence of his wrongdoing and he told me it was the master of the Stockert family who had made him do so."
"Connor Stockert..." Jared recited the name in a low voice, but the coldness in it was enough to make people feel cold all over.
Besides, this Connor Stockert might be his father's nemesis.
Although there was no evidence, the possibility was great.
Surely, he wouldn't have a good attitude toward Connor.
"What does Alice have to do with Connor Stockert?" Jared narrowed his eyes, revealing danger.
That Connor personally had ordered to falsify Alice's identity was enough to show that Alice's relationship with him was not simple.
At least, their relationship was the intimate kind.
Were they relatives?
Was she his blood?
"Sorry, Mr. Farrell. I haven't found out yet. I asked the deputy and he didn't know either. But he said it was Connor Stockert who told him to do so. He went ahead and did it anyway. However, the strangest thing is, the deputy bureau told me he didn't alter Alice's identity information but correct it." Ben Channing added at this time.00000
