Chapter 496
When the assistant secretary was grabbed, she thought she was going to be criticized and made an
example of. But the next second, she was surprised by Amber's question. "Miss Reed, I thought you
were to criticize me."
Words failed Amber for a moment. She said, "You are not qualified to be criticized."
When the assistant secretary heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Miss Reed, you are
so kind."
"Well, cut the crap. What were you talking about just now?" Amber looked at the assistant and asked
again.
The assistant secretary quickly replied, "The president of the Farrell Group may be engaged again."
"What?" Amber's pupils dilated as she froze. "Jared is... getting engaged?"
The assistant secretary was new here and didn't know the relationship between Amber and Jared.
She just felt that Amber looked a little strange. Without thinking too much about it, the assistant
secretary nodded and said, "Yes, it's trending online."
"Online?"
"Yes, a picture of Mr. Farrell holding a woman was posted online this morning. The media companies
speculated that he was getting engaged..."
The assistant secretary kept saying it, but Amber's mind went blank. Amber was haunted by the words
that Jared was getting engaged.
Amber turned around and walked towards her office at a loss.
The assistant secretary hadn't finished speaking. When seeing that Amber left, the assistant secretary
tilted her head. "It's so strange. Why does Miss Reed look so dazed?"
Unable to figure it out, the assistant secretary shrugged and returned to her office.
Amber walked into the office and walked to the desk. It took a couple of tries to grab to her chair.
She slumped on the chair with a blank look. She stared at the computer with empty eyes and felt
almost dead inside.
How ridiculous!
Amber had thought that Jared wouldn't get married yesterday, but he was to be engaged soon.
Jared was getting engaged!
As for his fiancée...
Amber squeezed the palm of her hand, rushed to the computer, turned it on, and searched for the news
about Jared.
As the assistant secretary said, it was trending online.
Before Amber opened the browser, she saw the news that Jared was getting engaged in a popover
box.
Amber hurriedly clicked it. It was posted by a media company called Flashfeed. It said, “According to
the grapevine, Jared
Farrell, the president of the Farrell Group would marry Rebecca, the daughter of Iverboyd's president.
We always thought it was
a false rumor, but we didn’t expect it to be true. Congratulations to Mr. Farrell and Miss Boyd.
Below this text was a photo.
Amber zoomed in the photo with trembling fingers, only to see that Jared and a woman stood in front of
the hotel door.
The woman grabbed Jared's arm and leaned against his chest.
Jared was looking down at the woman affectionately.
It was obvious that they were in love with each other.
Miss Boyd was Rebecca!
Amber let go of the mouse, leaned heavily on the back of the chair, and bit her lower lip.
As expected, Jared was getting engaged to Rebecca.
Amber finally knew why he suddenly said that he would give up and why he didn't want her to take care
of him.
Jared fell in love with Rebecca and was about to get engaged to her, so he naturally stopped pursuing
Amber and didn't need Amber to take care of him.
Although Amber didn't think Jared did anything wrong, she felt uncomfortable and upset.
Especially when she saw the photo of Jared and Rebecca hugging each other, she felt very sad.
Finally, she sat up straight and closed the web page.
She thought she would get better by doing that.
However, it didn't work at all. She became more annoyed.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Amber picked up the phone and answered the call without looking at the caller ID. She asked in a weak
voice, "Who's that?"
"It's me, Honey. Did you know that Jared is getting engaged to Rebecca?" Cole's excited voice came
from the phone.
When Amber heard this, she held the phone hard, and said in a hoarse voice, "I knew it.”
“Are you shocked?" Cole didn't hear anything unusual about her. Looking at the computer screen, he
said excitedly, "Honey,
you don't know Jared was very bad to Rebecca yesterday. But he is about to get engaged today."
Cole continued, "Honey, what do you think is wrong with him? If he doesn't love Rebecca, why is he
engaged to Rebecca? What
can he benefit from it? The Boyd family is going downhill. Jared couldn't get anything from them. And
the Farrell family is so
strong that Jared doesn't need to rely on marriage to get help. On the contrary, marrying someone else
will be an economic
drag." This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“Maybe they are engaged for love rather than interests." Amber sneered.
Cole smiled. "Love? Honey, don't pull my leg. Jared didn't love Rebecca at all. "
“Why not?" Amber lowered her eyes to cover the sadness in her eyes. "As you said, The Boyd family is
going downhill and
Jared can't benefit from marriage. Instead, the Boyd family has to rely on him. Jared won't help anyone
for no reason, and
nor will he be forced to do anything. Now that he is willing to get engaged to Rebecca, he must love her
very much."
Cole was lost for words. After a while, he said, "Honey, I suddenly think what you said makes sense,
and I can't even refute it.
"I know, but I can't believe that Jared loves Rebecca. I was at the banquet yesterday. Every time Jared
looked at Rebecca, his eyes were filled with disgust, so I think the engagement is fake," Cole rubbed
his chin.
Amber said blankly, “It must be true. If it is false, he will make it clear. It's almost ten o'clock, but he
hasn't said anything about it, so it must be true."
“You're right." Cole nodded.
Amber took a breath. "Well, Cole, is there anything else? If not, ['ll hang up. I'm a little tired and want to
rest."
Not only did Amber feel uncomfortable, but now she started to feel dizzy.
Amber needed to lie down, calm down, and rest.
She wanted to figure out why she was so anxious about Jared's engagement.
Amber's voice was weak. Hearing this, Cole frowned. Before he could ask, it became silent on the
other side of the phone.
Cole looked at the phone screen and found that Amber had hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Hayden aiso saw the news on the Internet. He opened his eyes wide in disbelief and called
Jared at once. “Jared, are you crazy? Why do you want to get engaged to Rebecca?"
