Although Jared needed to recover soon, he didn't like the bone soup at all.
However, he didn't stop Logan for the sake that Logan cared about him.
Meanwhile, Jared heard footsteps outside his ward.
He looked up, only to find that Ben was standing outside the ICU and waving at him.
Jared nodded slightly to hint at him to come in.
Ben understood, pushed the door open, and entered. "Hi, Mr. Farrell."
Jared hummed and asked, "How's the company going when I was in a coma."
"Everything is fine. I told the board of directors you had gone abroad for something urgent. Hence, no one else knows you are in the hospital besides our team. Hence, nothing happened to our stock market," Ben answered while standing next to the bed.
Jared raised his hand to pinch between his eyebrows. "Good job. Send the urgent files to me this afternoon."
"But, Mr. Farrell, you are still..."
"It's alright." Jared slightly closed his eyes and said in a tired tone, "I can't just stay in the hospital doing nothing."
Since he insisted, Ben couldn't do anything but nod in agreement. "All right. I got it. Here's another thing."
"What is it?" Jared looked at him.
Ben looked solemn. "It's about the investigation on how Makenna Gardner got to know Ms. Reed had been pregnant. I've found everything. The whole matter was just a conspiracy."
"A conspiracy?" Jared squinted.
Ben nodded and continued, "Since Makenna knew Ms. Reed had been pregnant with your baby, I guess she must have witnessed the night three months ago. Hence, I went to the nightclub in person and looked for clues for that night. Then I found a conspiracy."
Ben looked more solemn when talking about that. "It was Cole Lyon's birthday that day. Ms. Reed and her friends were celebrating it for him. Makenna and her friends were also in that nightclub. She bribed someone to put the drug in Ms. Reed's drink. The person who drugged Ms. Reed was a waiter in that nightclub."
"What?" Jared's eye pupils shrank.
Hence, Amber didn't get drunk simply that night, but she was drugged.
Jared realized that it made sense. If Amber was simply drunk, she wouldn't be that excited. However, he didn't notice anything wrong at that time.
"Where is that waiter now?" Jared emanated a cold aura.
Ben answered, "I've locked up the waiter. When I went to look into the matter of that night, I noticed his abnormality, so I captured and questioned. Only then did I find Makenna asked him to drug Ms. Reed and find Ms. Reed a man."
"A man?" Jared gritted his teeth, going ballistic.
He couldn't believe that Makenna had planned to find a man to rape Amber even three months ago.
"Yes," Ben answered, pushing up his glasses. "Makenna asked the waiter to find Ms. Reed a man and let him encounter her. Then the man would take Ms. Reed to his room and shoot her videos. However, somehow, the man was late that night, so he didn't meet Ms. Reed as they planned. Hence, when I finally found the surveillance video, I saw it was you who encountered Ms. Reed instead."
After a pause, he added, "Also, when you and Ms. Reed entered the room, Makenna's friend, Chloe Mendez, took the photos. Then she called Makenna, so the latter knew Ms. Reed hadn't slept with the man found by her but you. That was why she knew you were the baby in Ms. Reed's belly."
"I see." Jared pressed his lips tightly, clenching his fists hard.
He thanked God as that man was late. Otherwise, Amber would have been...
Jared didn't continue imagining what would happen next, and he couldn't.
He looked extremely annoyed and said, "Find out that man!"
"I've asked my men to capture him. He'll be brought to Olkmore City tomorrow," answered Ben immediately.
Then, Ben seemed to recall something else. Looking at Jared, he added, "Besides, the surveillance video showed that in the following morning, shortly after you came out of the room, that man entered the room."
"What did you say?" Jared's voice was raised suddenly. He looked highly stern. "Did he enter the room?"
