"And then?"
"Then..." Amber's body trembled slightly, and her face was full of self-blame. "Then I asked Dad what happened. Dad said that he was fine, so I really believed that he was fine and he was just worried about Goldstone. If I had persisted at that time and found a doctor to take a look at him, I would have known earlier that he had been drugged. All of this was my fault. I could have saved him, but I missed it because of my own inattention. Jared, do you think I am very unfilial?"
"No, you are not unfilial." Jared took her hand and looked at her seriously. "After all, in this world, no one can prevent what will happen in the next second in advance. No one would have thought that your father was mentally ill because he had taken the drug, so all this was not your fault. Don't blame yourself. If he had a soul, he wouldn't want you to take all the blame on yourself. What you need to do now is not to blame yourself, but to find the evidence that your father was poisoned as soon as possible."
"You are right. I have to cheer up and avenge my father!"
"That's right." Jared gently touched her hair and asked, "Are you hungry? You haven't eaten this morning. You must be hungry, right?"
Amber wanted to say that she was not hungry. After all, after knowing this sad thing, how could she have the appetite to eat?
However, before she could say anything, her stomach began to growl.
She quickly covered her stomach, and her face couldn't help but turn red.
Jared chuckled. Then, he stood up and held her hand as they walked toward the restaurant. "Let's go. Let's eat first. After we're full, we'll have the energy to do things."
Amber's red lips moved, but she did not say anything. She obediently followed him.
After eating, Jared went out.
Aside from attending the engagement banquet, he also had his own work to do.
Therefore, he did not stay in the villa to accompany Amber.
Amber stayed alone in the villa, waiting for Nichole to send a message in the afternoon.
Nichole was very punctual. At three o'clock in the afternoon, she called and told Amber about the whereabouts of Braylee.
Braylee was now a citizen of Country A, so the Pratt family naturally sent Braylee back to that country.
At this time, Braylee was already on the plane flying to Country A.
Hearing this, Amber frowned because she was a step too late.
She had originally planned to catch Braylee and interrogate her after she figured out her whereabouts.
But she didn't expect that the Pratt family would have moved so quickly and had directly sent Braylee back.
Now, how was she going to catch her?
Amber rubbed her temples, feeling a headache coming on.
Now, it seemed that she could only wait until she could find a way to get Braylee back later.
Or, she could go to Country A personally.
Thinking of this, Amber quickly opened the calendar on her phone and checked her time.
Soon, Amber set the date at the end of the month.
At that time, Goldstone would not be as busy as it was now, and she would have the time to find Braylee.
If she could make a breakthrough from Braylee, she should be able to find out the mastermind Trenton.
Amber clenched her cell phone with uncertainty and looked out of the French window in a daze.
The next day, Amber and Jared boarded the plane back to China.
Along the way, Amber was absent-minded and was not in a state of mind.
There were even several times when she almost bumped into other passengers at the airport.
If Jared had not pulled her back in time, she would probably have fallen and gotten injured.
"Are you alright?" In the first-class cabin, Jared closed the magazine in his hand and looked at the unhappy woman beside him.
"I'm afraid I need a few more days." The woman rubbed her cheeks.
If her father had really committed suicide, she would have been more at ease.
But her father had been murdered, so she could not calm down so quickly.
