"You are right," Lizzie nodded ashamedly, "I didn't agree at first. But my greed just devoured me."
"Greed …" Amber murmured with her eyes downcast.
Then she suddenly cried in great wrath, "But you don't know that your greed ruined my love and my marriage!"
"I … I have no idea …" Lizzie was stunned.
She didn't understand. She only deceived her on the time she met her pen pal.
It had never occurred to her that the little lie would have anything to do with her love and marriage.
Amber closed her eyes and then calmed down.
She bit her lips and said, "Farewell, Lizzie."
After that, she hung up the call directly and then threw the phone onto the desk. She lowered her head so that her expression became invisible.
But the dead silence in the room had already betrayed the agony and sorrow in her mind.
She was wondering if Lizzie had not helped Makenna, she would have been the one who met Zack and she would have found that Zack was Jared, the boy she loved secretly and Jared would have found she was the girl called Maple Leaf who he loved so much.
Then they would have been a happy couple.
But she could not go back in time.
Over this, Ambler rubbed her face and picked up the phone to call Sheila Dawson.
"Ms. Reed, how can I help you?" Sheila Dawson looked at her and found her eyes were red so she asked, "Did you cry, Ms. Reed?"
"No!" Amber's eyes tickled as she was surprised by her great discernment, and then she changed the topic, "I want you to find a woman for me through the detective agency.
"My pleasure."
"Her name is Elizabeth Johnson. She was a roommate of mine when I was in college. I need her job and the name of her boss." Amber said with a flash of cruelty in her eyes.
The betrayer must be punished regardless of the reason why she chose to betray.
It's the time for Lizzie, aka Elizabeth Johnson, to be punished.
"Copy that." Sheila nodded and left.
Meanwhile, on Jared's Maybach.
Ben kept looking at Jared on the rearview mirror while driving. Finally, he asked out of curiosity after a while of hesitation, "Mr. Farrell, did you make it all clear to Ms. Reed?"
With his eyes fixed outside the window, Jared nodded slightly.
A sense of delight welled up in Ben's eyes, "Did she forgive you?"
"No." Jared bit his lips slightly.
Ben was so astonished by his reply that he almost pressed the brake by mistake, "Why? Didn't you tell her that you were the pen pal called Zack and that you have mistaken Makenna for Maple Leaf?"
"I did. But what she cared about was that I didn't realize she was Maple Leaf during the six years of our marriage," Jared said with his eyes downcast.
"Indeed," Ben said with his lips twitched.
He said to Jared, "If I were Ms. Reed, I would do the same. Though I wouldn't mind that you were deceived by Makenna Gardner, I would certainly feel disappointed since you failed to realize that I was the real Maple Leaf. But you were actually hypnotized, Mr. Farrell. Otherwise, you must have known Makenna was a liar as soon as possible."
Jared remained silent.
Something suddenly occurred to Ben and he said with his eyes wide open, "Mr. Farrell, Didn't Ms. Reed say anything to you after she knew you were hypnotized?"
"I didn't tell her I was hypnotized," Jared said gently.
"Why?"
Why would he be so stupid?
