Thinking about everything she said yesterday with Jeremy, Amber lowered her eyes, "It's nothing."
Her obvious lies didn't escape Cole's eyes, and Cole raised an eyebrow, "Really? But it didn't look like nothing, yesterday after I borrowed the wheelchair, on my way back, I saw Jeremy left, his expression at the time took me by surprise, he was gloomy, I asked him what was wrong, he just ignored me, I returned to the ward, and found that you didn't look right, I guessed that something must have happened between you, but I saw you were in a bad mood, so I didn't ask. "
Amber bit her lower lip and didn't say anything else.
Cole sat down at the edge of her bed, "Tell me about it and see if I can enlighten you."
"It's really nothing." Amber also sat down on a chair on the side, "I found out that Jere had some psychological problems, so..."
She didn't intend to tell Cole about Jere's poisoning.
First of all, she did not want Cole to worry, and secondly, she didn't want there to be a rift between Cole and Jere.
Cole has known Jere for a long time, although not as long as she has known Jere, they also have known each other for so many years, they were also friends, there was really no need to break the relationship.
Besides, she had intended to forgive Jere for what he had done, so there was no need to say anything.
"You... you found out about Jeremy's mental problems?" Cole exclaimed.
Amber's eyes narrowed. "What, you knew?"
Cole was choking, and he realized he'd let it slip.
"Tell me if you already know," said Amber, looking at him with an unmistakable expression on her face.
Cole struggled and finally sighed. "Well, I mean, I did know."
"You..." Amber kicked him angrily. "You knew. Why didn't you tell me?"
Maybe she could convince Jere to get therapy early on.
Maybe Jere's better off now than he was before he tried to poison her.
"Jeremy wouldn't let me." Cole rubbed his calf.
Amber glared at him. "We grew up together, and you kept it from me. When did you know?"
"Well..." Cole's eyes flashed and Amber knew he was up to something.
Amber frowned impatiently and tried to kick him again.
Anticipating this, Cole quickly lifted his legs to avoid her kicking, laughing. "I'll say it! Don't get so mad at me," he said
"Cut the crap and say it!" Amber urged.
Cole shrugged and looked serious, "I found out about it a year ago, and Jeremy and I were in touch two years ago, your grandfather connected us, and ever since your father died, your father's Goldstone shares have been sold by your stepmother and sister, so over the years, your grandfather has been secretly acquiring Goldstone shares, starting with Jeremy following your grandfather and acquiring the shares, and I don't know how many years Jeremy worked with your grandfather, but I joined two years ago, so I'm guessing at least for three years."
"Turns out Goldstone shares were yours and Grandpa's..." Amber's eyes widened in surprise.
Jeremy took her to see her grandfather three months ago after she and Jared divorced.
Amber's grandfather was an archaeologist, who traveled through tombs all the time, so he's been off the grid for years, and she hasn't seen or heard from him in the six years she's been married to Jared, so she had no idea how Jeremy found him, she was shocked.
Of course, the bigger shock was grandpa's share of Goldstone. She knew that after dad died, Goldstone's share was sold by her stepmother and sister, wondering how her grandpa got his hands on Goldstone's shares, which were already well beyond what dad had when he was alive.
