Chapter 126 Bernardo’s Crisis

Partnership would not affect her revenge.

The two were not in conflict.

Cole understood what Amber meant and gave her a thumb up, “Baby, you’re the best.”

Amber gave a smile, “Well, let’s go meet with those men.”

“Okay.” Cole nodded and stood up as well.

Two hours later, Amber and Cole sent off a few of the administrators.

Because Jared had come for partnership with the intention of making amends, the terms were, therefore, all in

favor of Amber’s side.

Naturally, Amber and the heads of those subsidiaries soon reached an agreement and signed the contract.

After Ben got the news, he immediately informed Jared.

Jared’s tightly frowned brow stretched out, “Got it.”

Amber accepted the collaboration.

It seemed that she had put the fact Makenna pushed her down the stairs aside.

At this, Jared was relieved.

“Right.” He looked up at Ben, “Any news about Amber’s pregnancy?”

Ben shook his head, “No, Miss Reed acted as if she didn’t know she was pregnant and didn’t mention it to anyone

at all, including Mr. Lyon.”

So naturally, the people he had arranged had no way of knowing who was the father.

Jared pursed his lips.

Ben gauged his expression, “Mr. Farrell, why don’t we reveal it to Mr. Lyon and let Mr. Lyon ask Miss Reed, maybe

Miss Reed will tell him.”

Jared’s eyes flickered slightly, seemingly somewhat intent.

But in the end, he waved his hand and declined.

“No, wait a little longer.”

“Yes.” Ben stopped talking.

Meanwhile, at Goldstone.

Word had gotten around that Amber had established partnership with several subsidiaries of the Farrell Group.

Some people were happy, and some were sad.

In the president’s office.

Bernardo Delgado’s face was very gloomy, “Did you find out the reason why Amber can win a few partnerships. with Farrell Group?”

The secretary stood across from him and replied cautiously, “I’m sorry, Mr. Delgado, I haven’t checked it out yet, it seems to be a private matter between Miss Reed and Mr. Farrell, so it’s a bit difficult to find out.”

“A private matter? Bernardo narrowed his eyes.

A board member on the sidelines ventured a guess, “Could it be that the two of them still have feelings for each other and that’s why…”

Bernardo’s face was grim, “If that’s true, then it’s possible for Amber to have the new energy project.”

For a moment, he couldn’t help but feel a great sense of crisis rising in his heart.

1f Amber really get the new energy project.

Then he, the president, would really have to hand over half of the power in his hands.

Thinking about it, Bernardo clenched his fist and ordered his secretary in a gloomy voice, “You immediately go and secretly check if there is anything between Amber and Mr. Farrell, and if there is, tell the Gardner family immediately.”

“Mr. Delgado, you want to use the Gardner family to suppress Amber?” The director asked with a glint of shrew in his eyes.

Bernardo sighed, “With Mr. Farrell behind Amber, that bet might really be won by Amber, so in order to stop Amber from winning, we can only get the Gardner family to step in.”

“You are right.” The director nodded, “Right now, Miss Gardner and Mr. Farrell are only the unmarried couple, if Amber really has an affair with Mr. Farrell, I believe the Gardner family will not let her go. When that time comes, if Amber wants to rely on Mr. Farrell to get the new energy project, she would get nothing.”

“Yeah.” Bernardo knocked on his desk, smiling smugly.

At that moment, there was a knock on the office.

Bernardo frowned unhappily, “Come in.”

The door was pushed open and Sheila stood at the door, “Mr. Delgado, Miss Reed wants to have a meeting with

you.”

“A meeting?” Bernardo pursed his lips, “What kind of meeting?”

“It’s about a couple of new business partners that Amber just got onboard.” Sheila replied.

Bernardo’s expression was gloomy and his voice was cold, “Got it, I will be there.”

“Then I’ll go ahead and reply to Miss Reed.” Sheila closed the door and left. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Ten minutes later.

Bernardo led the directors to the conference room.

Just as he walked to the door, he met Amber and Cole.

Amber nodded slightly, “Mr. Delgado.”

“Congratulations, Miss Reed, for winning a few more collaborations, it’s really something.” Bernardo raised the corners of his mouth and said in a gloomy manner.

Amber ruffled her hair, “Thank you, Mr. Delgado.”

“What I said is the truth, after all, in this world, there are a few people who are divorced and can still claim things from ex–husband.” Bernardo said sarcastically.

Amber’s face sank.

Cole even clenched his fist, “Old man, what did you say!?”

“Cole.” Amber took his arm and told him not to be impulsive.

Bernardo was really a bit afraid of Cole hitting him, but when he saw Cole being pulled by Amber, he felt relieved and continued sarcastically, “Mr. Lyon, your girlfriend is still hanging out with her ex– husband and you did not care about that, you are really generous.”

“You…”

“Cole!” Amber almost missed pulling Cole with one hand, and finally used both hands to stop him, shaking her

head at Cole, “Don’t mess around.”

“Baby, listen to what he has said!” Cole glared at Bernardo in exasperation.

“I know, but beating him up is not the way to solve things.

Saying that, Amber let go of him and took a step forward, blocking in front of him, her eyes coldly looking at

Bernardo, “Mr. Delgado, are you saying that these few collaborations of mine were obtained by getting close to

Jared?”

“Isn’t that true? If it was not relying on Mr. Farrell, what else could it be? I’m afraid that you even win the new

energy project in this way.” Bernardo sneered.

Amber clenched her palms and replied with an expressionless face, “So this is how Mr. Delgado sees me.”

“I can understand that you want to have more business partnership and gain more trust from the group, but the method is too disgraceful. Have you ever thought that if you do this, it will intensify the conflict between Goldstone

and Trident Group even more?” Bernardo looked at her grimly.

Amber coldly snorted, “The conflict between Goldstone and Trident Group has no need to continue to intensify. It has already reached the critical point. These new partners are the compensation Jared gave me for Makenna’s wrong–doings. Do you think the Gardner family doesn’t know?”

Hearing this, Bernardo froze, “What do you mean?”

Amber glanced at him coldly, didn’t reply, but pushed open the door of the conference room to enter.

Cole said contemptuously as he passed by Bernardo, “You don’t even know how exactly these collaborations were taken, but you suspect that Amber had used shady tricks. Now you know the truth is different from what your

thought. Shame on you.”

With those words, he also stopped paying attention to Bernardo and went into the conference room.

Bernardo stood there, his face twisted in anger.

This meeting went on for a long time, as it was about several collaborations.

These few collaborations, again, happened to involve all of Goldstone’s businesses, so everyone was serious

about discussing the restart of some of the business sections.

It wasn’t until it was almost dark that everything had been discussed, and as long as the subsidiaries of Farrell Group transferred the funds, those stagnant projects of Goldstone could all be revived.

And Goldstone, too, can completely get out of the risk of going bankrupt and enter into stable development.

Although Amber was disgusted by Jared’s move to bail out Makenna, she had to admit that Jared had indeed

helped Goldstone Co. this time.

But that still didn’t mean that she would let the matter go
