"Yes, Mr. Lyon did not. The maid he hired is called Wendy.”
"Yes, Wendy is the maid | hired for you." Cole nodded. He turned to look at Violet even more
suspiciously. "How did you know?"
Violet smiled. "Wendy and | are domestic workers from the same company. She had some private
matters to be addressed, so we switched this shift.
That's why I'm here taking after Miss Reed right now.”
"Is that so?" Cole squinted his eyes, obviously not convinced.
The housekeeping company didn't notify him about this.
Violet nodded. "I'm telling the truth. You can call the company if you don't believe me, Mr. Lyon.’
"You think | won't do it?" Cole snorted. He took out his phone and called the housekeeping company.
Two minutes later, he hung up the phone, looking disappointed.
Amber put the glass of milk on the coffee table in front of her and asked, "What did they say? Is Violet
telling the truth?"
Cole nodded. "Yes. Damn, my friend forgot to tell me about this. Gosh, I'm so mad! How could he forget
something this important!"
Amber smiled. "Since Helen is telling the truth, then just leave it. Violet is doing a great job anyway."
"Thank you, Miss Reed. Your wish is my command.’ Violet looked at Amber amicably.
Violet knew that Amber was Mr. Jared Farrell's ex-wife. On rare occasions when Amber came to visit
the old residence, Violet had always been f
working in the back kitchen of the Farrell residence. Therefore, she only heard about Amber from Mrs.
Farrell and Mrs. Murphy but never met her before.
Mrs. Farrell and Mrs. Murphy said that Miss Reed was a good match for Mr. Jared Farrell. Now that she
had met Miss Reed in person, Violet also thought so. More importantly, Mr. Jared Farrell loved Miss
Reed.
However, that was also what confused Violet the most. Since Mr. Jared Farrell loved Miss Reed so
much, why did he divorce her in the first place?
Why would he do that?
"Alright, Cole. What are you doing here anyway?” Amber asked.
Cole dropped the bag onto the coffee table. "To get you some mangoes. Also, my mom wants to see
you. Remember to visit her when you are free.”
"Auntie?" Amber cocked her head in puzzlement. "Is there anything she wants to talk to me about?"
"| don't know what is it exactly, but there is definitely something.” Cole nodded.
Amber was even more confused.
“Why didn't she tell me on the phone?"
“Who knows? Maybe she has to tell you in person. You'll know when you get there." Cole shrugged.
Amber chuckled. "Okay. But I can't go now. Mrs. Lyon will get sad if she sees me like this. I don't want
her to worry about me.
I'll visit her when my eyes recover."
“Yeah, I thought of that. I told my mom that you won't be able to visit her in recent days. She said she
got it, " Cole said as he smiled.
Amber drew her lips. "Good."
Her phone suddenly rang.
Amber fumbled her phone out of her pocket and passed it to Cole. "Cole, help me see who is calling?"
Cole looked at the screen. "Elias Lansdale."
"Got it." Amber took her phone back and felt around to press the pick-up button on her phone. She put
the phone by her ear and answered, "Dr. Lansdale."
"I've already handed in the charity grant application for Sharon Kay. Since I'm the guarantor, the
foundation will work on the approval soon enough," Elias cut to the chase.
"Thanks," Amber grunted.
“No big deal. You entrusted me with this. I have to live up to your expectation."
Amber chuckled and asked, “How's the therapy going?"
“Nothing much. It's the first day," Elias answered.
Amber pursed her red lips. "I know. Cole told me the treatment cycle for Jere's illness will be really
long. This is only the first
day of therapy, it's only natural if there's nothing much going on. Just thought I might ask if Jeremy is
cooperative during the process?"
Elias was sitting in his office chair.
He glanced at Jeremy, who was sound asleep on the sofa opposite the room, and replied, "I think he is
just pretending to be cooperative."
"How so?" Amber frowned.
Elias nodded against the phone. “I think he is actually against psychotherapy in his subconsciousness.
He wouldn't talk. So, not everything went smoothly."
“Okay. Thank you anyway. I'll try to talk to him to make him cooperative." Amber blushed. She then
went on to ask, "Is Jeremy still in your office?"
“Yes, but he didn't get much sleep in the past few days, so I hypnotized him. He is asleep now."
Amber nodded, "Okay. I'll contact him when he wakes up."
After the call ended, Cole took a bite at a mango as he asked, "Why did Elias call you?"
“He just told me that the Charity Grant Application for Sharon Kay will soon be attended to."
Cole pursed his lips. "Babe, I don't get it. Sharon Kay went to prison for the assailant who hurt you.
Why would you help her? Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
If I were you, I would leave her to eat dust bunnies."
Amber rubbed her sore temples and chuckled. "Sharon is sure guilty. But we shouldn't take our
resentment out on her innocent child. Judy certainly won't give Sharon the money. The kid needs
money to get the surgery. I can't just watch a life being taken away and do nothing about it. Sharon
promised that she would volunteer at the orphanage after her child got the surgery.
Consider that atonement for her sins."
Cole sighed, "You are just too kind. But sometimes being kind is not necessarily a good thing."
“Don't worry. I know what I'm doing." Amber patted Cole's shoulder to reassure him.
"Fine. I don't know what to do with you sometimes. Guess I'll just have to look out for you.
Cole rubbed his tummy and changed the topic. "I'm a little hungry. Babe, can I stay for dinner?"
"Sure," Amber agreed.
Violet checked the time. “It's time. Miss Reed, I'll go make dinner now."
"Okay." Amber nodded.
Violet sure was a good cook. The dessert she made this afternoon was heavenly.
Cole stuffed himself like he hadn't eaten anything in days and left contently.
Even Amber ate more than she usually did. She lay on the couch to give her stomach some time to
digest the food she just consumed before taking a bath and going back to her room to rest with Violet's
help.
Violet turned off the light for her and left.
Closing the door behind her, Violet took out her phone and called Jared. “Mr. Farrell."
“Violet, is Amber asleep?" Jared asked.
Violet wouldn't call him if Amber was still up.
Otherwise, Amber would find out about this.
"Yes, Miss Reed just got in bed," Violet responded.
She continued to tell Jared what happened today, leaving no details behind.
Hearing that Cole stayed at Kelsington Bay for dinner, Jared's face darkened. "Okay. As long as she
didn't suspect you. Take good care of her. Call me if anything happened."
“Okay. Don't worry, Mr. Farrell," Violet answered.
Something Ben said caught Jared's attention. He nodded and said to the phone, “I have to go now."
With that, he hung up the phone and walked over. "What's the matter? “
