It turned out Jared had a chance to know Amber was the real Maple Leaf three months ago.
He had just divorced Amber at that time. If he had known Amber was the real Maple Leaf, Makenna wouldn't have any chance to harm Amber. Probably, he had already won Amber's heart back.
However, he couldn't turn back the time.
Although Logan made a mistake so that he couldn't recognize Amber at that time, Jared had to admit that it was because of himself as well. If he could have a firm faith when Logan had grabbed the letter and grabbed the letter back, things wouldn't become like this.
Jared could only tell himself that it was all because of God's plan.
On the other end of the line, Logan felt uneasy after Jared directly hung up the phone. He walked back and forth while holding the phone. "I'm so doomed! Jared must hate me to the core now."
He also regretted why he didn't let Jared read that letter.
If Jared had, Makenna wouldn't have had any chance to do anything. Jared and Amber would have remarried already.
However, Logan believed that he had screwed everything.
"I must make up for them." Logan rolled his eyes and dialed Amber's phone number. "Hello, Amber. Help me!"
Amber was dealing with some files. She didn't check the caller ID when hearing the ringing tone. She swiped to answer directly, but it turned out to be Logan on the other end of the line. He asked her for help as soon as the call was connected.
"What's wrong? Were you arrested by the police again?" Amber asked, putting the phone between her neck and shoulder.
Logan said, "Bah! I'm not arrested. Amber, can't you wish me well?"
"I do wish you well, but you look like a frequent visitor to the police station," Amber answered while signing the documents.
Logan blushed in displeasure. "You've gone too far, Amber!"
"All right. I'm kidding with you, Logan. What's wrong? Tell me directly. I'm super busy." Amber put away the signed document, picked up another one, and continued to read through it.
Logan scratched his hair and muffled, "Here is the thing. I might be hated by my brother."
Then he told Amber about that letter.
Amber listened to him and paused when writing. Only then did she know what happened after Logan had taken away the letter.
Since Amber didn't speak, Logan panicked. "Amber, my brother must hate me to the core now. You must help me."
"I'm sorry, but it's your family affairs. I can't meddle in," Amber answered while reading the document.
Logan didn't expect her to refuse. He gaped and blinked. "Why not? It's about you as well. If I hadn't..."
"Enough. Stop it!" Amber interrupted him with a frown. "I know what you mean. You want to tell me it was all because of you, so your brother didn't recognize me earlier, right?"
Logan nodded hard. "Exactly. If I had let Jared read the letter, probably, you and he have already remarried."
"You are wrong." Amber turned a page of the document expressionlessly. "Even if you had shown Jared the letter, I wouldn't have remarried him."
"Why not?" Logan was agape.
Amber parted her red lips and answered flatly, "No reason. If you insist on knowing the reason, it's because I don't love him. Why would I remarry a man who I don't love?"
Then she hung up the phone directly.
Right then, there were a few knocks on the office door.
Amber said without raising her head, "Come in."
Sheila put down her hands and walked in. Standing in front of Amber's desk, she said, "Ms. Reed, the police station called just now. They asked you to go to the police station. They said they had caught the person who projected the skull on your window."
Upon hearing it, Amber raised her head instantly. "Did they catch him?"
"Yes!" Sheila nodded.
Amber smiled.
The police didn't contact her for a long time, so she had thought they failed to catch the person and terminated the case.
