Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 170

Since his boss let him spit it out, Ben didn't hide it again. He nodded and continued, "After I received Ms. Reed's proposal, Ms. Gardner came to my office. She also delivered a proposal. On the way, I went to make a cup of coffee for Ms. Gardner and left the proposals in the reception room. Ms. Gardner was the only person in that room at that time..."

Upon hearing it, everyone understood.

Amber's proposal had been changed by Makenna.

Jared looked down, feeling disappointed.

"Nonsense!" Trenton patted the desk and stood up. Glaring at Ben, he snapped, "How dare you slander Makenna! Jared, this is your good special assistant, isn't he?"

In fact, he also realized that it was Makenna who had changed the proposal.

However, he wouldn't admit it.

"Mr. Gardner, I'm a righteous man with integrity. I told the truth just now. If you don't believe it, I can show you the surveillance record of the reception room," Ben retorted unhappily while looking at Trenton.

He had worked for Jared for several years. Finally, he had achieved his current position. Why would he take the risk to slander someone for no reason? And that person was Makenna Gardner.

If he did so, his career would definitely be ruined.

Trenton paled instantly upon hearing that Ben could show him the surveillance record.

Amber said ironically, "Mr. Gardner, you do have a filial daughter. To help you gain the qualification, she could do such a shameless deed."

"Exactly. We are so impressed by your daughter," someone echoed.

Trenton blushed and paled, feeling so embarrassed that he wished to vanish right away.

He had never been so ashamed like this moment, even not when he was arrested by the police.

After all, when he was taken into the police station, the public didn't know what he had done. However, this time, it was different. All people in this room knew Makenna had stolen another person's proposal. They would even think he had manipulated it. Trenton could imagine how others in the business circle would talk about him in the future.

For a moment, Trenton's heart was filled with hatred.

He hated Amber for exposing the proposal was hers. Why didn't she accept the result and keep her mouth shut?

He hated Jared for not handling this matter in private. Of course, he hated that stupid Makenna more.

"Mr. Farrell." Seeing Trenton couldn't utter a word, Amber turned to Jared on the chairman's seat. "Since the truth has been found, what's your proposal to deal with this matter? Will you let Mr. Gardner keep being the business partner, or..."

"Since the truth had been found, I announce, Trenton's qualification will be canceled. The place will be offered to Ms. Reed. Do you have any objections?" Jared interrupted her words and glanced at other attendees.

Others shook their heads. "Of course not."

Let alone that Trenton's qualification should belong to Amber, they also finished reading her proposal. It was excellent indeed.

"What about you, Mr. Gardner? Any objection?" Jared called Trenton particularly.

Trenton said reluctantly, "No."

Even if he had, what could he do?

Jared nodded and looked back at Amber. "None of them has objections. Do you agree with this decision?"

"Sure." A trace of happiness flashed through Amber's eyes.

Finally, she had won the place of the business partner.

She had won against Bernardo in the bet.

Amber clenched her fists tightly in excitement.

Jared could feel how delighted she was. A trace of amusement flashed through his eyes and disappeared instantly. Raising his chin, he was about to say something when Amer suddenly said, "However, Mr. Farrell, it's not enough."

Other's eyes lit up when they heard her words, becoming interested.

It seemed Ms. Reed was quite ambitious. Besides exposing the truth and winning the place of the business partner, she seemed to aim at more things.

Trenton snapped in anger, "Amber Reed, don't push your luck too far!"

Amber glanced at him indifferently. "Push my luck too far? I'm a victim. Of course, I must fight for my own interests and rights. What's so wrong with it? Mr. Gardner, you are the wrongdoer. Instead of apologizing to me, you blamed me. Haven't you gone too far?"
