Chapter 23 My Money Is Your Money
Amber came back last night in a bad mood and drank until midnight. Then she went to sleep not long before she was awakened by the ringing phone.
She returned to her senses and fumbled for her phone on the bedside table. “Hello?”
“Miss Reed, this is Sheila Dawson speaking,” a voice came on the phone.
Hearing the name, Amber sobered up a little and soon remembered the woman.
She was the secretary of Cole. Cole feared that after Amber entered Goldstone Co., she would have nobody to help her, so he assigned his secretary to her.
“What is wrong?” Amber asked while walking towards the bathroom.
Sheila said, “There are some urgent documents to be dealt. When would you be coming to the company?”
Amber thought about it and looked at the time. “I will be there around eight thirty.”
“Okay.”
Hanging up the phone, Amber washed her face with cold water and finally felt comfortable. But she still suffered from headache because she had drunk too much last night. In the mirror, she saw her slightly haggard face.
After washing up, she came out of the bedroom and saw the messy living room, she pursed her lips hard.
How much did she actually drink last night!
When she drove to the company, it was exactly eight thirty. As soon as she entered the office
and sat down, Sheila came in.
“Miss Reed, these are the documents that need to be signed.”
“Alright.”
She opened the files and asked, “Did we sign the contract with Wisemas?”
“It was scheduled at nine o‘clock this morning, but Wisemas changed their mind,” Sheila said helplessly.
“Is that so?” Amber frowned and took out her phone, saying, “I will call Cole and ask him to
talk to them.”
Sheila quickly said, “Miss Reed, it won‘t help. He planned to go to Wisemas this morning to talk about it. But after taking a call, he told me that he had something to attend to in his company and he would come back to deal with the contract with Wisemas later.”
Hearing this, Amber put down her phone.
She almost forgot that Cole also had a company of his own and had a lot of things to handle.
Seeing that she remained silent, Sheila asked, “Miss Reed, I will leave first. Is that okay?”
“Check where the president of Wisemas goes today.” Amber took a deep breath and continued, “Tell me once you find out about that. I‘ll take care of these documents first.”
Sheila got stunned for a second and said, “Didn‘t Cole say he would come back to deal with it?”
“He is also very busy. I can‘t wait for him to help me handle everything.” Amber pursed her lips tighter, “I have to learn whatever I don’t know since I am in this position. Otherwise, I will lose the position soon.”
“Okay. Miss Reed. I will go check the itinerary.” Sheila left the office.
Amber had only come into contact with these things and there were many technical terms in the documents, so she read the documents quite slowly. She only completed a third of them by noon. After having a simple lunch brought in by the secretary, she continued to handle the rest of the documents.

And…….terrible ending, the story is not finished....
Jared needs to find a way to sleep with Amber, find the letters in her bedroom and realize he has given his love to the wrong woman through Makenna’s deception. Don’t want he or Amber to live a life of misery due to someone else’s lying. Makenna and her family are terrible people, using Jared for his status and wealth....
Amber needs to lighten up a little too, their relationship was not all Jared’s fault as she didn’t tell him the truth about being his pen pal either. As for his mother, let her drop dead along with the Gardners....
Jared needs to state his feelings so Amber can feel his sincerity which means dumping Makenna, the fake, despicable woman...
Wow Jared needs to grow a set and dump that lying deceitful witch and her whole family and remarry Amber asap. Otherwise he will be a miserable man for life with that terrible woman....
Jared needs to wake up and dump Makenna particularly since his true love is Amber not the wicked witch....
Ugh, why do the horrible conniving people always win. Terrible Makenna is wicked, she’s a thief, stealing Ambers identity as Maple Leaf and pretending to be someone she’s not. Awful person....
