Ignoring Jared's sullen face, Hayden asked again, "Why did you ask someone to send a box of mangoes to Goldstone Co.?"
Jared frowned, "I didn't."
When hearing that his mother scolded Amber because of the mangoes, he became even gloomier and made a call to Fruity Express.
The worker in charge checked the delivery and apologized, "I am so sorry, Mr. Farrell. The delivery man did not know about your divorce and thought Miss Reed was still your wife. So he delivered the mangoes to her company. I am truly sorry."
Since Jared turned on the amplification, Hayden sitting opposite could hear the talk. "Wow, how unlucky Amber is! She suffered from your mother's curse for nothing."
Jared pinched his brow and also felt annoyed.
He did not expect that someone dared take secret photos of him at Red Plum Club. And he never thought that his mother would come to Amber's company to make trouble.
After the waiter finished serving the food, he asked Hayden, "Did Amber talk to people from Yutoga?"
"Yes. And she will go to their factory this Thursday"
He added, "I think that even if you hadn't talked to Yutoga in advance, with her eloquence, they would be willing to help her anyway. Although she is new in the business, she learns fast and is really impressive."
"Is that so?" Jared suddenly felt that he seemed to have never paid attention to her during the marriage.
When they were still married, he always saw her doing all kinds of small things in the family.
She would make delicious meals and iron his suits. In fact, she was a good wife.
But he did not expect that she was also excellent in other aspects other than taking care of the family matters.
Hayden shrugged and said, "You'll know next time if you have a chance to see for yourself. Your ex-wife is truly good."
"But I am still confused about one thing. Isn't she going to sign a contract with Wisemas? Why are you still introducing Yutoga to her?" he asked. "By doing so, you owed a favor to Yutoga, who would definitely use this to ask you for help in the future."
"This batch of overseas good is vital to the current Goldstone Co." Jared said while eating his food, "Wisemas is good at manufacturing foreign goods but not so good as Yutoga, and not as famou, either. If Goldstone can get a chance to develop a long-term partnership with Yutoga, soon more and more partners will come to her before she has to implore everywhere."
"Wait, this doesn't sound right…" Hayden stroked his chin, "Are you helping your ex-wife to build her connections?"
Jared remained silent for a while before saying, "When we got a divorce, she takes nothing from me and she does not even want a house. So just consider this as my remedy for her."
"Your remedy is far from enough. She spent six years at your house." Hayden said with a dry laugh, "If I were her who had suffered so much from your mother, I would think twenty million is not enough…"
Before he could finish his words, Jared put his chopsticks down suddenly, grabbed his jacket and said, "I will go back to the company."
Hayden looked at his figure and shouted, "I was just telling the truth. Don't you like to hear it?"
The door was slammed shut.
"Shut it as hard as you wish. Anyway, I won't pay for the damage." Hayden shrugged, called the waiter in and ordered a lot more dishes.
...
Back then when Shonna came to Goldstone Co. to make trouble, some employee recorded a video and shared it within the circle via social media.
Most people were quite surprised. They did not expect someone so tough, distant and collected as Jared would have such a mother. And some people who saw the latter half of the video which was intentionally edited felt that Amber went too far towards her ex-mother-in-law.
Some people even guessed that Amber must have been with that male model long ago and cheated on Jared during marriage. And that was why Jared divorced her.
All kinds of rumors became rampant in the business world.
