Falling in love with my ex wife novel (Amber and Jared) novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20 Getting the Necklace

“Miss Reed, don‘t you go too far.” Makenna was pissed off but had to hold her tongue, “My dad apologized to you about the video. Why won‘t you stop, and you’re even trying to snatch the proposal necklace my boyfriend gave me?”

Amber raised an eyebrow and smiled, “You got together with Mr. Farrell only a few days after I divorced him. People who don‘t know what is going on will think you’ve been coveting him and can’t wait to be his wife!”

“What are you talking about? It‘s obviously you ...”

“And, Miss Gardner, I didn‘t mean to snatch it.” Before Makenna could finish, she was interrupted by Amber again, “You were the one who wanted to give me a gift and I had my eye on the Corazón Azul.”

“...” Makenna choked on her words and stood there biting her lip. Her face grew paler and paler, like a small white flower about to wither.

Cole watched the scene with such pleasure that he even wanted to give Amber a round of applause.

“Mr. Farrell, say something.” Cole barked at Jared, “Aren‘t you a man of your word?”

Jared’s face stiffened.

After a moment of silence, he handed Amber the jewelry box containing Corazón Azul.

Makenna hastily tugged at his sleeve, “Jared, this is the necklace you’re going to propose to me with. Don‘t...”

“Today is a special party that uncle is throwing for your recovery from the hospital. Don‘t spoiled it.” Jared soothed her in a hushed voice, “It‘s just a necklace. I‘ll have Ben find a better one later and bring it to propose to you.”

The guests were envious when they heard this, “Miss Gardner is lucky. Mr. Farrell has a way of buying the rarest jewelry for you!”

After complimenting Makenna, they then threw Amber more sarcastic remarks.

Hearing what Jared had said, Makenna’s face brightened and she nodded obediently, “I‘ll do whatever you say.”

Listening to their conversation, Amber only found it extremely ironic.

She had been married to Jared for six years and he had never bought her a single piece of clothing, not to mention jewelry. And it was even her who bought the ring when they got married.

Now that she saw how he treated Makenna, she felt she was living like a joke.

Amber suppressed the sadness in her heart and took the jewelry box with a bright smile, “It‘s such a rare piece of jewelry, and Mr. Farrell just gave it to me. It seems that Mr. Farrell really loves Miss Gardner and doesn‘t want her to suffer a bit.”

Amber’s pungent comment didn‘t sit well with Jared. He said indifferently, “Corazón Azul is yours, and Mr. Gardner apologized. Amber, just drop this matter.”

“Okay!” Amber agreed readily.

She took a glass of red wine from the table and nodded towards Jared, “I wish Mr. Farrell and Miss Gardner a happy marriage for a hundred years, and may you have a baby soon.”

With that, she tilted her head and drank the wine in one go, then put the glass down and

turned to leave.

“Mr. Farrell, I must thank you too.” Cole grinned, “If it wasn‘t for your indifference, Amber wouldn’t have come to her senses! Thank you for releasing Amber. She deserves the best.”

Jeremy picked up the clutch bag on the table that Amber had forgotten to take with her and blew a whistle, “Let‘s go.”

“Go, go!” Cole took Jeremy by the shoulders and left the place with him as he complained, “The air is so filthy in here. I‘ll fell sick if staying here for one more second!”

As he watched them leave, Jared’s brow knitted tighter, and there was an indescribable feeling of irritation in him that could not be dispelled.

He didn’t expect her to have such good suitors.

Amber had just gotten to the car and hadn’t been resting with her eyes closed for more than a minute when Cole and Jeremy came back as well.

“Babe, you were fantastic just now. Gee, did you see the look on Makenna’s face? She can’t wait to eat you.” Cole got into the driver’s seat and buckled his seatbelt as he laughed out loud, “It’s so good that I even want to applaud you!”

Jeremy got into the back seat and handed Amber the bag, “You just put it on the table and

“Baby, why don‘t you let me find you another boyfriend?” Cole said with a grin, then gave Amber another glance in the rearview mirror, “Tell me what kind of men you like, or you can stay with me. My mum quite likes you anyway...”

Jeremy was a little embarrassed by Cole’s question and coughed, “Yes ...”
