Honey, I Don't Dare Again (Amber and Jared) novel novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101 Emotional Blackmail

“Chloe has always wanted to be acquitted, so she insists on appealing for the second trial, but the result will not change. So she will still have to be detained. Her mother definitely came here to ask you to drop the case.” Cole whispered in Amber’s ears.

Although his voice was low, Mrs. Mendez still heard it. She was a little embarrassed, “Miss Reed… Mr. Lyon is

right. I’m here for this.”

“See, I got it right.” Cole spread his hands.

Amber rolled her eyes at him, then looked at Mrs. Mendez with a cold and distant smile, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Mendez. I

won’t drop the lawsuit.”

Mrs. Mendez didn’t expect that Amber would refuse her so directly. Her face stiffened and she felt a little upset.

But soon, Mrs. Mendez held back her unhappy face and pleaded, “Miss Reed, I know that Chloe has gone too far this time, but she already knows that she is wrong, so can you…”

“No!” Amber interrupted her expressionlessly, “Mrs. Mendez, you said she knew she was wrong, but why hasn’t she apologized to me yet? As her mom, since you know she was wrong, why didn’t you do anything to make it up?”

“Exactly.” Cole put his hands behind his head and said leisurely, “The final trial is coming. Chloe is going to be convicted. Now, you came to find Amber. But we still don’t see your sincerity. You wanna ask Amber for forgiveness? Hypocrite! Are you not afraid of being laughed at by others?”

Mrs. Mendez clutched her bag tightly with both hands. Hearing this, she was embarrassed.

She originally thought that she would easily persuade Amber.

But she didn’t expect these two young people to be so merciless.

“Well, let’s go.” Amber didn’t want to entangle with Mrs. Mendez, so she said to Cole.

Just when the two were about to turn around, Mrs. Mendez suddenly grabbed Amber’s hand, “Miss Reed, please, please forgive my daughter.”

Amber frowned and wanted to pull her hand back.

But Mrs. Mendez grabbed her tightly and didn’t let her go, “Miss Reed, for the sake of my begging, please! As long as you agree to let her go, I will take her to apologize to you in person. Miss Reed, please!”

“Mrs. Mendez, I’ve made it very clear just now that I won’t drop the lawsuit. It’s useless for you to beg me. Could you please let me go?” Amber said impatiently.

As if Mrs. Mendez didn’t understand what Amber said, she just looked at her with a sad face, “Miss Reed, are you really so unfeeling?”

“Amber is unfeeling? Chloe asked for it!” Cole snorted at her words.

But Mrs. Mendez ignored him and focused on Amber, “Miss Reed, I can kneel down to you as long as you let

Chloe go!*

Saying that, she let go of Amber’s hand and dropped to her knees.

Both Amber and Cole were startled by her actions. After reacting, they quickly helped her up.

“Mrs. Mendez, don’t do this!” Amber rubbed her temples, feeling headache.

Cole also pouted, “Mrs. Mendez, this is emotional blackmail!”

If Amber didn’t agree with her, she would kneel down to beg. How preposterous. This was not only emotional

blackmail, but also threat and compulsion.

Sure enough, she was Chloe’s mother. Like mother, like daughter! It was not surprising that Chloe would become

like this.

Mrs. Mendez still ignored Cole. Seeing that Amber seemed to waver a little, she took advantage of it and asked,

“Miss Reed, please!”

Amber said, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Mendez. I…”

Before she could finish her words, Mrs. Mendez broke free from Cole’s support and was about to get down on her

knees again.

But this time, before Mrs. Mendez knelt down, she was helped up again.
