Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 14

Inside the office, Jared was tapping his index finger rhythmically on his desk.

He seemed to be waiting for something.

After another five minutes or so, Ben came back, "Mr. Farrell, there were some twists and turns, but I got it."

Jared slowly raised his eyes, "What twists and turns?"

"The surveillance footage of Pinewood Road had been overwritten a long time ago, and the footage from six years ago isn't easy to find. Then a guy who fixes computers came along and told me that he had it. He said that the car crash six years ago was a big one so he had saved the record back then. He knew I was looking for the footage so he came to give it to me."

After Ben finished, he looked cautiously at Mr. Farrell, "The video does show Miss Gardner's car being struck by another blue car. Would you like to see it?"

It was a blue Audi that Amber was driving back then.

"No." Jared was indifferent as he continued to instruct, "Give me the stuff and tell that computer guy not to say anything to the others."

"Got it."

Ben had been with Mr. Farrell for many years and naturally knew exactly what he meant. It was clear that Mr. Farrell didn't intend to go public with this, nor did he want his ex-wife to go to jail for it.

Jared stared at the pen in his hand and was lost in thought.

After a while, he picked up his coat and went back to the Farrell's Mansion.

He had just reached the lobby when he heard laughter coming from inside.

Shonna and Makenna must have been talking about something funny, and the atmosphere was very cordial. Even Logan, who was usually mischievous, was sitting quietly looking at his phone.

Shonna noticed the door and got up in a hurry, "Jared, you're back."

Makenna smiled at him, looking sweet and graceful.

Jared nodded and handed his jacket to the maid, "What are you talking about? You're so happy."

Makenna glanced at Shonna and spoke, "Auntie was telling me about your childhood. It's interesting."

Shonna pretended to be angry, "Makenna, don't call me Aunty. You're my future daughter-in-law, so you should call me Mum."

Makenna's face flushed and she looked shyly at Jared, "It's too early."
