Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 616

Amber didn't want to drag Jared through the Reed family's mess.

Jared respected her decision so he stood there waiting.

Amber smiled at Jared then headed towards the tombstone with Sheila.

Baylee knelt in front of the tombstone. Drenched by rain, her soaked clothes and wet hair clung to her skin. She looked terrible.

Especially with that grotesque expression on her face.

"Amber Reed." Seeing Amber walking her way, Braylee enunciated through clenched teeth. Then, she tried to get up from the ground.

But the more she struggled, the tighter the grip the guards had on her.

Her knees hit the ground with a bang. The pain made her growl. "Let me go! This is an order! I'm the deputy general manager of Goldstone! How dare you do this to me? You are fired!"

She turned to glare at the two guards, her face almost distorted in rage.

Intimidated, the guards turn to look at Amber as a silent cry for help.

Amber waved, then gave them a reassuring look. She looked down at Braylee and said coldly, "So what if you are a deputy general manager? That doesn't give you the right to fire them. I'm the CEO of Goldstone. I have the final say."

"You..." Braylee glared at Amber, then gave her an evil smile. "Okay, you are the CEO. Amber Reed, you win. Happy?"

Amber didn't show any emotion as she looked at Braylee. She changed the topic. "Do you know why I bring you here?"

A faint sneer hung on Braylee's lips. "Who knows what's wrong with you!"

Amber's expression grew colder. "Don't you want to know why I made you kneel in front of this tombstone? Have you read the inscriptions?"

Braylee's response was dismal.

She rolled her eyes. "Amber Reed, you are crazy, aren't you? You brought me here just to let me read the inscriptions? Do you have nothing to do? What a joke! Why would I read this crap!"

"This crap?" Amber repeated slowly, exasperated. She clenched her fists, glared at Braylee, and bellowed, "So dad's tombstone is crap to you?"

"Dad's tombstone?" Braylee's pupil contracted in shock and turned to read the inscriptions. Her expression was a mix of guilt, panic, and a little spook when she caught a glimpse of the words "Hugo Reed" inscribed on it. However, she didn't look sad.

She didn't look sad at all!

"This is your biological father buried in front of you! Don't you feel even a bit sad? Are you made of stone?" Amber looked at Braylee as if she was a heartless monster.

Hearing Amber's words, Braylee's eyes fluttered down. Then she retorted loudly, "I don't feel sad because he deserved it!" ...

Braylee stared at the tombstone with hatred and bitterness in her eyes. "We are both his daughter. Why was he so nice to you and so mean to me! I just can't stand his obvious bias. Since he didn't treat me as a daughter, I won't see him as my father!"

"So that's how you feel." Amber looked at Braylee, harrowed. "I've explained it to you before. Dad treated us equally. You were rebellious. Dad was strict with you because he wanted you to get back on track. You misinterpreted his love. I feel sad for dad."

"You know nothing!" Braylee shrieked. "Of course, you are on his side! He always doted on you!"
