Jared nodded expressionlessly. "Right. All of them."
Ben's lips twitched. "Mr. Farrell, isn't it too much? I've had breakfast not long ago..."
"Eat it!" Jared interrupted him affirmatively.
Ben held the breakfast for two adults and wished to cry but couldn't shed tears.
He believed that Jared did it to avenge what he had just remarked.
If he had known Jared was so petty, he would have kept silent.
Ben regretted it.
Looking at the paper bag, he shook his head with a bitter smile.
Time passed. Soon, it was ten o'clock.
Amber passed the signed documents to Sheila. Then she stared at her computer, biting her lower lip. She hesitated if she should watch Jared's press conference.
After a moment of hesitation, she decided to watch it.
Why not?
Makenna's engagement with Jared would be canceled. What a joyful thing! She should watch.
As she thought of it, Amber clicked the mouse and entered the official website of the Farrell Group.
In the live broadcast room, Jared held a microphone while standing on the stage in the conference room. He looked at the reporters offstage expressionlessly.
Under his gaze, the reporters felt scared. The noisy conference room quieted down instantly. The bullet subtitles kept rolling on the screen. The netizens either praised Jared's handsome face or were curious about the press conference.
Many netizens had figured out this press conference must have something to do with Makenna. Last night, something happened to her, but Jared held a press conference today. They wanted to know the reason.
"Now you are all silent," Jared spoke finally.
The reporters offstage were like the elementary students while nodding. All the netizens of the live broadcast room were amused.
Reporters were always the most difficult to deal with. They were also quite bold. As long as there was news, they could risk their lives for it.
However, when they saw Jared, they were like rats in front of a cat. Sure enough, everything had its buster.
"Since you've all quieted down, I'll talk about the press conference today. It's about my marriage with Ms. Makenna Gardner, the daughter of the Gardner family. I announce, our engagement is canceled today," Jared stared at the camera and said indifferently.
Much to Amber's surprise, the reporters and the netizens in the live broadcast room didn't feel shocked.
They had expected it earlier.
Since that kind of matter happened to Makenna, it was normal for Jared to cancel the engagement.
Even an ordinary man couldn't accept that his fiancée had sex with other men, let alone Jared, from a wealthy family.
Hence, no one blamed him when hearing his announcement.
Of course, some of them thought that Jared had gone too far. If he wanted to cancel the engagement, he shouldn't have chosen the moment when his fiancée suffered the most. They believed that Jared should wait for his fiancée to let go of the sorrow. Otherwise, how desperate she would be!
However, the sensible ones retorted to such opinions soon.
In front of the computer, Amber listened to Jared. She understood that Jared had nothing to do with Makenna from this moment on.
However, she felt how ridiculous.
Three months ago, Jared and Makenna held a high-profile engagement ceremony. Although Amber had ruined their ceremony, in the end, the whole world got to know they had become a couple-to-be.
Later, they showed how much they loved each other in public to make others envious. Now, it became a joke.
Makenna had slept with other men, which became the laughingstocks. She probably wouldn't have the guts to show up in public.
As for Jared, others dared not talk about him to his face. However, in private, they would mock him for being the cuckold.
Amber spun the pen in her hand with a gloating smile.
On the other side, Jeremy, Cole, and Hayden watched the press conference in their houses, respectively. Hearing Jared announce his engagement with Makenna was canceled, they had different expressions. However, they had a common feeling— they were all unhappy.
