Jared frowned.
He saved her because that's what he wanted to do; there was no motive behind it.
In other words, he never intended to take advantage of this to ask her to remarry or stay with him.
But there was a trace of anger in him, as well as hurt, at her words of warning.
In her eyes, he was the kind of person that would take advantage of her?
"We'll talk about it later," Jared said, eyes downcast.
Amber sensed that his attitude toward her had cooled off, and she knew why.
But she didn't care. After receiving the change from the doctor, she looked at Jared and said, "Let's go."
Jared got up and walked to the door with a cool response.
Amber slung the bag over her shoulder and followed.
In the car, the two of them did not speak, only a shallow breathing sound filled the quiet air.
It was not until they arrived at the police station that the uncomfortable silence between the two men was broken.
"You stay in the car, don't get out," Amber unbuckled her seat belt and said to Jared who was in the passenger seat and unbuckled his belt as well, "there are reporters outside. Your bodyguards didn't come. If you go out, you will be surrounded by the reporters and you will be recognized."
Jared listened to her, paused with his hands, and looked out.
There were reporters outside the police station, but not many, maybe five or six.
It's the outside of the police station, the reporters will be deported.
But she couldn't let them see her.
If these reporters get excited and bump into her, there will be trouble.
Thinking about it, Jared pulled out his phone and sent a message.
A few seconds later, his phone vibrated.
Jared looked down, and then turned to Amber in the driver's seat, "Hold on a second. The head of bodyguard who was escorting the man who threw the sulfuric acid is now at the police station. I just sent a message to him to come out and pick you up. With him around to protect you, these reporters can't get close to you."
It'll put his mind at ease.
Amber's red Lips moved and she was about to say something.
Jared got two knocks on his window.
Jared rolled down the window, and the head of the bodyguard bent down, "Mr. Farrell."
"You will protect Ms. Reed, don't let her get hurt," Jared said gravely, looking at the head of the bodyguard.
The head of the bodyguard nodded earnestly. "Don't worry, Mr. Farrell, I will keep her safe."
Jared nodded slightly.
The head of the bodyguard walked around the front of the car to the passenger door, opened it, and made a gesture to Amber, "Ms. Reed, please."
When Amber saw him do it, her refusal was blocked, she couldn't open her mouth.
Finally, she let out a small sigh, said thank you, and got out.
Amber showed up, and the reporters were thrilled to see her.
But looking at the large, muscular bodyguard beside her, the reporters were afraid to step forward again.
Because they saw how the head of security beat up the guy who threw the sulfuric acid.
Just like this, Amber, under the protection of the head of the bodyguard, went into the police station smoothly.
If it was just her alone, the press would be all over her.
When they got to the lobby, one of the police took Amber to make a statement.
In the process, Amber took out all of her bank card information, cell phone information, and so on, to prove that she didn't do anything to Makenna.
After all, whoever did this to Makenna had to pay for it, had to have some kind of contact.
The police department can certainly use those two things to find out if she's innocent or not.
About a half-hour later, the police pulled all of Amber's bank card information, all of her contacts on her cell phone, and they were clean.
As a result, the police department had come to believe that Amber was innocent, but this could be decided directly, and they needed to send someone over to the hospital to question Makenna, to see if there's been some kind of misunderstanding.
