Chapter 557 Re-encounter Braylee Reed
Jared smirked. When he was about to retort, he heard something.
He squinted and pulled Amber to turn away, hiding behind the staircase door.
Since Amber was wearing a thin dress, Jared feared she would feel cold if her back clung to the wall.
Hence, right after entering the staircase, he wrapped around her waist and spun. Then his back clung
to the wall.
Amber raised her hands to press on his chest, nestling in his arms.
"What..." She widened her eyes and was about to ask him what he was doing.
Jared shushed her and said, "Don't move. Be quiet."
Seeing him so solemn, Amber nodded subconsciously. Although she was confused, she shushed
obediently.
When she stopped speaking, she overheard some voices.
She heard a man and a woman flirting with each other.
Through the door's crack, Amber could see a man and a woman walking in their direction while holding
each other. While walking, they kepttouching each other. Amber was sickened by this.
"Are you cold?" Jared asked in a low voice.
Amber shook her head, pointing at the door crack.
Although Jared couldn't see what happened out there from his position, and he didn't know what she
had seen, he could roughly guess it through her disgusted expression and the voices outside.
"Don't look at those filthy things," said Jared in a low voice.
Amber nodded in agreement.
When Amber was about to withdraw her gaze, the man and the woman got closer to the door. She
could see the man's face through the crack clearly.
Seeing it, Amber gaped in surprise. "He is... my friend's fiancé. I've seen his face on their invitation
card. But that woman isn't my friend."
Although that woman pressed her face on the man's chest and Amber couldn't see it, she knew it
wasn't her friend.
Her friend was a model, almost five feet nine. The woman wasn't that tall.
Hence, Amber realized that her friend's fiancé cheated on her friend on their wedding night.
Jared wasn't surprised when hearing her words.
As soon as he overheard the voices, he could tell who that man was.
After all, he was pretty much acquainted with the bridegroom.
He didn't know who the woman was.
"Do you have the phone with you?" Jared lowered his head to ask Amber.
Amber nodded. "Yeah."
"Record the scene. Send it to your friend later," he reminded her.
He came to the wedding banquet as he wanted to see Amber. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here.
Besides, Jared only knew the bridegroom but didn't get along well with him. Hence, Jared didn't feel
guilty at all that his friend's wedding banquet might be ruined.
He only cared if Amber would be happy.
Upon hearing his reminder, Amber understood and nodded. In a hurry, she pulled out the phone. "You
are right. I must keep the evidence and show it to my friend. I wonder if she'll collapse after listening to
it."
"You can disclose it a bit to test her. If she's strong enough and quite determined, you can tell her about
it. If she's too weak to hear it and willing to forgive her fiancé, you can delete the recording," said Jared.
Amber nodded in agreement. "You are right. Okay. I'll do it."
She was willing to record the evidence that her friend's fiancé had cheated on her for their friendship in
the past. She didn't want her friend to be bullied by the man.
However, if her friend wouldn't appreciate her kindness, Amber would delete the recording and fake it
as if she had seen nothing.
Right then, the man outside pinched somewhere on the woman's body. The woman let out an exclaim
coquettishly, "Oh! You bad boy!"
As soon as Amber recognized the voice, she was dumbfounded.
Jared noticed her stiffened body. He whispered, "What's wrong?'
Amber didn't answer. She peeked out from the door crack.
The man and the woman happened to stop outside the staircase behind the door.
The man wrapped around the woman's waist, raised her chin, and said with an evil smile, "Do you
really hate it? I can tell you like it."
"Bull crap! I don't. You are bullying me." The woman blushed. She faked being upset and hit the man's
chest coyly.
The man laughed loudly.
Amber saw the woman's face clearly, biting her bottom lip.
It was really her, Braylee Reed.
When Braylee was laughing earlier, Amber didn't recognize her.
When she spoke, Amber did.
Although Braylee's voice was different from six years ago, her hypocritical, coquettish tone had never
changed, making Amber sick.
However, Amber was surprised, wondering why Braylee was there.
Last time, Braylee returned to Olkmore and only stayed there for two days. Then she went to Country A
and disappeared.
Amber had thought that Braylee wouldn't appear again. Much to her surprise, Braylee appeared again,
came to Country K, and became the third wheel between Amber's friend and her fiancé.
Thinking of that, Amber's face turned gloomy.
She was upset that Braylee didn't have self-respect. How could she become a mistress?
Of course, Amber didn't care about Braylee. She cared about her father.
When her father was alive, he treated his two daughters fairly regarding education and materials.
However, what did Braylee do to their father? Once Goldstone had the sign of going bankrupt, Braylee Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
and her mother stole the remaining money and ran away. Their father failed to pay the debt and
jumped off the building in despair. Braylee didn't even attend his funeral.
Now, she had become a mistress. Amber was so furious.
Clenching her hands, Amber trembled in anger.
If she hadn't been afraid to attract others' attention when there was a fuss to ruin her friend's wedding,
Amber would go out and slap Braylee, take her back, and make her kneel to their father's tombstone.
Looking at Amber's reddened eyes, Jared moved his hands on her waist and patted her back to calm
her down.
Although he didn't know why she was so angry, he was sure it must have something to do with the
woman outside.
When Amber saw the man, her mood wasn't changed at all. Suddenly, she almost lost control, which
must be because of that woman.
The man and the woman talked again outside the door.
Braylee circled on the man's chest, looking at him in a hidden complaint. "Congratulations! You'll get
married tonight. In the future, if we date again, we have to keep it secret like what we're doing now.
Although it's exciting, I don't really like this."
"Well, you are not from an influential family, or else, you'll probably be the one I'm gonna get engaged
with tonight."
The man grabbed her fingers.
Braylee glared at him. "You are so blunt."
The man chuckled. "I marry that woman because of our families. It's not because I love her."
"How about me? Don't you love me at all?" Braylee looked up at him.
The man caressed her lips with his thumb. "I can't deny I have feelings for you. Otherwise, I wouldn't
have spent much money on you and helped you save someone from jail. If what I've done is found out
by others, I'll be so doomed. After all, I can't win against that man at all. Whether in terms of power or
personal abilities, I can't compare to him."
Help her save someone from jail?
Amber captured these key words.
She wondered who Braylee had asked him to save from prison.
