Mrs. Gardner also thought Jared's words meant he was willing to save Makenna. Therefore, seized by a surge of delight, she gave a contemptuous look at Amber as if she was saying, "See, if you won't let Makenna go, someone else will."
Amber suddenly felt disgusted.
Catching sight of Mrs. Gardner's behavior, Jared seemed crueler.
But Mrs. Gardner failed to notice the coldness in his eyes and continued, "That's easy. You can have a talk with the police. They will certainly free Makenna for your sake. Or you can well resort to the Cohen's. They are of great power in this city. With their help, Makenna will certainly be saved."
Jared sneered and said, "Thank you for your compliment. Indeed, I could save Makenna. But why would I do that?"
The smile on Mrs. Gardner's face suddenly faded, "What do you mean?"
Amber also stared at the man confusedly.
What?
Did he say he would not save Makenna?
Makayla's eyes also became bright with one of her hands clenched in another.
She thought Makenna would be saved by the man.
But it turned out that he had no intention to do that.
"I mean I won't save her," Jared said with a sneering smile.
Mrs. Gardner said with her eyes wide open, "But you said ..."
"I said what?" Jared interrupted her impatiently, "I just asked you how I could save her. But I have never promised that I would save her."
Mrs. Gardner was speechless.
He was right. He had never said that he would save Makenna.
That was only her understanding of his words.
Seeing Mrs. Gardner who was stunned with depression, Amber became quite delighted. Her anger for Jared faded immediately.
She had decided that if Jared really chose to save Makenna, she would die with him right here right now. Though that meant she would lose the opportunity to ruin the Gardner's, she would have Jared destroyed.
But finally, Jared was too sober to make such a stupid decision.
Sensing that the woman behind him was not glaring at him with much wrath, Jared knew she was not angry at him anymore.
He turned away and said softly to her, "I will not disappoint you anymore."
Amber's eyebrows jumped a bit before she said, "I have no relationship with you, Mr. Farrell. You don't have to promise me anything."
Jared stared at her sincerely, "It doesn't matter. I just want you to know I will stand with you no matter what happens. I promise.
"
Hearing those, before Amber could say anything, Mrs. Gardner opened her mouth, "Jared, is this bitch asking you not to save Makenna?"
A smile climbed on Amber's face.
Now it's her fault again?
She had never asked Jared to do so.
Jared frowned and glared at Mrs. Gardner with much aversion, "It has nothing to do with Amber. It's my own decision. Do you think I will save a woman who has tried to murder the one I love for several times?"
Hearing the phrase "the one I love", Amber turned away unconsciously, not to look at Jared.
Noticing Amber's behavior, Jared heaved a sigh secretly in his mind.
She was still refusing his love.
Mrs. Gardner stumbled, "She would do that just because she loves you too much."
"You mean her love can justify what she did? She had tried to pretend to be the one I love and hurt her! It doesn't make any sense!" Jared asked with a dark face.
Mrs. Gardner quivered and murmured, "It is Makenna's fault indeed. But Amber was alright now. You've been with Makenna for several months. Don't you feel anything about her?"
"Then tell me, if who you love is not Trenton and Trenton knows that, then he tried to destroy the one you love, will you feel anything about him anymore?" Jared stared at her and asked.
