Chapter 29 Your Remedy Is Far from Enough.
Ignoring Jared's sullen face, Hayden asked again, "Why did you ask someone to send a box of mangoes to Goldstone Co.?"
Jared frowned, "I didn't."
When hearing that his mother scolded Amber because of the mangoes, he became even gloomier and made a call to Fruity Express.
The worker in charge checked the delivery and apologized, "I am so sorry, Mr. Farrell. The delivery man did not know about your divorce and thought Miss Reed was still your wife. So he delivered the mangoes to her company. I am truly sorry."
Since Jared turned on the amplification, Hayden sitting opposite could hear the talk. "Wow, how unlucky Amber is! She suffered from your mother's curse for nothing."
Jared pinched his brow and also felt annoyed.
He did not expect that someone dared take secret photos of him at Red Plum Club. And he never thought that his mother would come to Amber's company to make trouble.
After the waiter finished serving the food, he asked Hayden, "Did Amber talk to people from Yutoga?"
"Yes. And she will go to their factory this Thursday"
He added, "I think that even if you hadn't talked to Yutoga in advance, with her eloquence, they would be willing to help her anyway. Although she is new in the business, she learns fast and is really impressive."
"Is that so?" Jared suddenly felt that he seemed to have never paid attention to her during the marriage.
When they were still married, he always saw her doing all kinds of small things in the family.
She would make delicious meals and iron his suits. In fact, she was a good wife.
But he did not expect that she was also excellent in other aspects other than taking care of the family matters.
Hayden shrugged and said, "You'll know next time if you have a chance to see for yourself. Your ex-wife is truly good."
"But I am still confused about one thing. Isn't she going to sign a contract with Wisemas? Why are you still introducing Yutoga to her?" he asked. "By doing so, you owed a favor to Yutoga, who would definitely use this to ask you for help in the future."
"This batch of overseas good is vital to the current Goldstone Co." Jared said while eating his food, "Wisemas is good at manufacturing foreign goods but not so good as Yutoga, and not as famou, either. If Goldstone can get a chance to develop a long-term partnership with Yutoga, soon more and more partners will come to her before she has to implore everywhere."
"Wait, this doesn't sound right..." Hayden stroked his chin, "Are you helping your ex-wife to build her connections?"
Jared remained silent for a while before saying, "When we got a divorce, she takes nothing from me and she does not even want a house. So just consider this as my remedy for her."
"Your remedy is far from enough. She spent six years at your house." Hayden said with a dry laugh, "If I were her who had suffered so much from your mother, I would think twenty million is not enough..." Before he could finish his words, Jared put his chopsticks down suddenly, grabbed his jacket and said, "I will go back to the company."
Hayden looked at his figure and shouted, "I was just telling the truth. Don't you like to hear it?"
The door was slammed shut.
"Shut it as hard as you wish. Anyway, I won't pay for the damage." Hayden shrugged, called the waiter in and ordered a lot more dishes.
Back then when Shonna came to Goldstone Co. to make trouble, some employee recorded a video and shared it within the circle via social media.
Most people were quite surprised. They did not expect someone so tough, distant and collected as Jared would have such a mother. And some people who saw the latter half of the video which was intentionally edited felt that Amber went too far towards her ex-mother-in-law.
Some people even guessed that Amber must have been with that male model long ago and cheated on Jared during marriage. And that was why Jared divorced her.
All kinds of rumors became rampant in the business world.
Amber did not have time to pay attention to those boring gossips. She took care of the company business and went to South Riverside on Thursday.
The factory of Yutoga was at the industrial park of South Riverside covering an expansive area.
After greeting Yutoga's boss, she followed him to visit the workshop to see how the workers make overseas goods and check the products they made. She talked with the boss from noon to afternoon. At two o'clock, they signed a contract.
When she saw Yutoga's seal on the contract, she showed a relaxed smile.
She shook hands with Yutoga's boss and said, "Thank you for the efforts. I look forward to see the final products. It's almost New Year, and I will have my secretary send something to you and the workers then."
"It's my job. You are welcome, Miss Reed," he said.
She politely refused his dinner invitation and booked a plane ticket of 3:00 pm.
At 4:30 pm, she returned to Olkmore City.
When she came out from the airport, the person next to her walked hastily and accidentally bumped into her, almost knocking her phone away.
"I am sorry," the person said.
Hearing this, she was one step ahead, picked up the silk scarf on the ground and handed it over when the person happened to look up.
Seeing that the person was an acquaintance, she greeted politely, "Mrs. Gardner, what a coincidence."
When Mrs. Gardner saw that it was Amber, her face fell.
She pulled the silk scarf from Amber
without saying thanks. Instead, she simply made an announcement, "Tonight we will have dinner with Jared's parents and decide on date of engagement. Miss Reed, since you were divorced from Jared,
please stay away from him." Content
Hearing this, Amber gave a half smile and said, "I am sorry. If I didn't take away Corazón Azul, they should have long been engaged." Mrs. Gardner glared at her.
"Mrs. Gardner, don't worry. I never know what regret means, and I won't return to my ex-husband. Mr. Farrell and Miss Gardner make a good match." After saying this, Amber walked past her with her head held high.
Mrs. Gardner originally wanted to give Amber a warning. Instead, she got angered by Amber's words.
So she pushed her suitcase out of the airport with a sullen face. Accidentally, she saw Amber talking to her secretary about something When Amber got into her car, Mrs. Gardner suddenly felt that Amber's side face looked like someone she knew.
She stared at the car in a daze until it drove out of the airport.
"Honey." Trenton hurried over and took the suitcase in her hand. "There was a traffic jam and I was delayed for a few minutes."
Seeing that she had ignored him, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Mrs. Gardner withdrew her eyes and walked with him towards their car, asking, "Where will we have dinner tonight?"
He opened the back door and helped
her inside. "A Grand Hyatt. It's owned by the Farrell Group, you know? By the way, you can have someone send the dress here. Why did you have to go to South
Riverside to fetch it yourself? It's so
tiring!"
"It's Makenna's favorite dress and she'll wear it tonight. I am afraid that others might be careless and damage it." She said, "Since we are having a dinner with Jared's families, she can't afford to lose face." "Okay. I know you love Makenna. Get in the car."
She saw a large bouquet of baby's breath on the seat by the window. The smile on her face instantly faded.
Trenton who got in later saw the flowers in her hand, and sadness flashed across his eyes.
"Today is Makayla's death anniversary."
